Listed here is an extremely popular, old-school Dodge Ram 3500 Dually quad cab with the highly sought-after Cummins Diesel 12-Valve engine and the 5-speed manual transmission. The truck has 232,661 miles on it & is in great condition for its age and mileage (still LOTS of life left if you're familiar with these trucks!). A/C blows cold, but needs a new actuator for the vents (blows only from the defrost vents right now, but still nicely cools the cab). Some minor rust and body damage, typical of a vehicle from Texas and of this age (see pics). There is some damage to the driver-side hip right in front of the tire. The bed of the truck has some rust, and it's already set-up with a gooseneck ball. Tires are nearly new (see pics), Goodyear Commercial T/As, LT215/85R16s, so there's about a grand right there! The 5-speed transmission works fine, but can be tricky as is typical with these vehicles. I think this truck was chipped/programmed, 'cause it'll haul butt & can accelerate from a coast in 4th gear while belching the signature Cummins black smoke! Interior is very nice (non-smoker), with the typical front-side driver's seat tear & a few dash cracks - other than that, looks (& smells) almost brand new! SInce it's a Laramie SLT, the truck is nicely equipped with working cruise control, power locks & power windows. This truck is priced to allow for the basic repairs you may need/want to do, but it's awesome as is (fresh oil change just today!). My start price is set just above NADA 'Rough Trade-In' ($4,975), & this truck is NOWHERE NEAR 'rough'! NADA 'Clean Retail' is $9,275, so my 'Buy It Now' price is VERY fair, too. Will sell with a clear Texas title. Feel free to email me with any questions you might have. Thanks & happy bidding!!! Buy It Now price is $1,300 under NADA Clean Retail!!! Deposit of $500 via Paypal will be due within 24 hours of auction end, with the balance due via cash (if local), bank wire transfer or certified cashier's check within 72 hours of sale. Truck is sold as is/where is & is also listed locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Check my Feedback Ratings & bid with confidence! Thanks... - Will be sold with a full tank of diesel! - Original owner's manuals in truck.
