1997 Dodge Ram 2500 - 5.9 12-Valve Cummins Turbo Diesel. 4x4 with the 5-Speed Manual transmission. 205,757 actual miles with absolutely No Rust.... This truck spent its entire life in the Pacific Northwest close to Seattle. It has not once been exposed to snow or salt and is as solid as they get. This vehicle has been impeccably maintained from day one. It has 20k on a new clutch and the 5th gear nut was addressed along with the dreaded Killer Dowel Pin.It is and always has been factory stock except an air filter. Comes with an air compressor under the hood for filling tires or running air tools.It's 20 years old so of course it has numerous superficial scratches and dings here and there that pictures do not show, but no major dents and it has never been hit or anything silly like that. No Accidents! The hood and the roof are getting a little cloudy.The bed has been used and is plenty scratched up with a few dents. There are dings in the tailgate that do not affect anything. A spray-in liner would do miracles for this thing. It has bed rails from a long while ago for towing a horse trailer but has never been close to overloaded or overheated and the 12-Valve Cummins runs better than new.The front end has always been maintained and it drives completely straight with no shimmies, shakes, or pulls. You can comfortably drive this thing all over the Country. The interior is beyond clean and exceptionally well kept as seen in the photos. No saggy doors, loose panels, or broken buttons. Everything works with no goofy idiot lights on the dash or anything like that. No annoying squeaks or rattles while going down the road. The dash is not cracked on this truck and the headliner is tight! It has a a ton of tread on the mud tires and is absolutely ready to go. This truck is beyond solid guys and ready for whatever you need. We all know these 12-Valve 5.9's are a dying breed. With the 5-Speed standard this is as rare as it gets. It will sell to the highest bidder. You know what you are getting with this one. It has been owned by 2 Gentleman so it is not some overpriced, turned up, & beat down piece of garbage. Somebody is going to get very lucky and be very happy with this truck. Truck was just driven to Ames, IA without a hiccup and can be shipped from here to anywhere you'd like. I can assist in getting the truck to a terminal to save on costs. You are buying a 20 year old diesel pick-up so please ask any and all questions so there are no surprises. I accept Cash for payment. Thank you very much.On Jun-19-17 at 06:33:38 PDT, seller added the following information: Answers to questions: The rear end is the DANA 80 with 3.55 gears so it actually cruises at a decent speed down the road.Tires are Bighorn Maxxis 287/75-16Windshield is cracked.Small crack starting in dash but has a brand new "DashMat" brand cover on it.
