1952 Dodge Power Wagon 4x4 on 2040-cars
Auburn, California, United States
This Auction is for a pair of 1950's Dodge Power Wagons. Sold together.
The best of the two is Yellow and Green. A 1952 Civillian Power Wagon. Very straight and solid and mostly complete. Minus bed and rear fenders. The truck has a good motor and has run in the not too far past. The motor has a cool Offenhouser Dual Carb intake with Holleys. It also has a home built dual exhaust manifold and dual exhaust. Looks like it would probably run. Will need rear end work and possible rear end parts from the second truck. Appears to have a locker. Not sure if there is an issue but the axles are loose. That is how I got it. It has no speedo or front Dodge emblem, but both are on the other truck. It does have the Braden Winch. Windshield frame is nice. Better than a parts truck as there is no rust. Interior is complete. Cab corners and door bottom are solid with no blistering. Does not appear to have any filler in it either. Doors are complete. It rolls and steers. The second truck is a parts truck. Orange. It has most of its drivetrain. 1951 Civillian Power Wagon. Has a bent frame from using the wrecker in rear. Engine has a crack in block and is a boat anchor. That said the body/cab is solid and it has lots of good parts. It does not roll as the front wheel is off. I have the parts, hub and drum but not the axle. So this truck will be hard to move. Buyer can come remove what parts you want from it or I can help get it from my trailer to yours. Shipping will be an issue for this truck. Bring a big winch, these trucks are heavy. I have no title for either truck. Both are CA trucks their whole life and have their original license plates and original vin tags. Sold as is for parts. This really should have a buyer that is local enough to come pick them up themselves with a strong truck and trailer. I can store the trucks for 30 days while transportation arrangements are made. |

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
Ron Burgundy returns for four more Dodge Durango ads
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Dodge has released several more of its Anchorman 2-themed commercials, starring Will Ferrell as inept newsreader Ron Burgundy. The four spots, one of which is a sequel to a previous commercial, follow roughly the same pattern as previous ads, with Ferrell's Burgundy misunderstanding or generally making a fool of himself. For some of the ads, though, Burgundy is selling more than just Durangos - the red-suited host of San Diego's most watched news broadcast shilling the entire Dodge lineup.
We've included all four ads down below, and you can also hope over to our original posts to see some of the older commercials. Oh, and if you're getting tired of these - we aren't, aside from the Do-dge spot - just remember that Ferrell reportedly filmed around 70 ads for Dodge.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years
Tue, 06 May 2014Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.
