Vehicle Detail
Selling my truck with installed hitch. Sold my RV earlier this year so I just don't have much need for it anymore. I would like for it to go to someone who can really use it. I attached several pictures and the basic details are below. Please read this entire posting before contacting me. I don't have to sell this truck, but it really doesn't make sense to keep it and I would really like to see it go to someone who can really use the truck and hitch. It's exactly the kind of deal I wish I found when I bought my RV and needed to get a truck and hitch. I didn't find such a deal, and so I wound up paying much more for the truck and had a brand new hitch installed. The truck is mechanically sound. I know of no issue with the engine/drivetrain.To help make this go smoothly, I have listed everything I can think of that is wrong with it. The price already reflects these items.So here's what's wrong with it:- needs new tires. I would probably move the 2 tires from the front, which have life left, to the rear and then just put 2 new tires on the front. That should get you by for quite a while. Your choice depending on how you plan to use it.- the high brake/reverse light on the top of the cab is broken. I did that myself last year while backing up into my garage with a bookcase in the bed. Pretty dumb. I didn't bother to fix it, but should just be a new light assembly.- it has 2 chips in the windshield. They have both been there for years and have not spread. Purely cosmetic and I wouldn't bother to fix them.- it now has 3 cracks in the plastic on top of the dash by the windshield. There is a picture showing this. This has been a recent development as the truck is parked outside and it gets the sun. Again, purely cosmetic.- some parts of the body are now starting to show some fading due being parked in the sun- The front passenger seat does not latch into the proper recline position. Sometimes I get it to latch, but most often when I adjust it it will just drop down to the full recline position. I have a feeling I would be able to fix this somehow if I just spent some time, but haven't bothered.- The front hood is supposed to stay raised by itself, but it doesn't anymore. This has also been a recent development in the last few months. You can see in one of the pictures that I use a piece of wood to hold it up when I need to. I'll include the wood with the truck. I don't think this is a big deal, I would never bother to fix it.- It does have some small/medium dents from use. Please look at the pictures. There are a couple on the driver's side door and quarter panel, and also some dents from use inside the bed.- It has a scrape on the body over the driver's side rear wheel (see picture) from when I tried to cut it too close trying to fit this into my garage.My reserve price is very reasonable. Many similar trucks are for sale on the internet for $12,000- or more. It also has a DrawTite 18k 5th wheel hitch installed. The way I look at it, anyone buying it would get the truck at a reasonable price and the hitch for free. It would be a pretty good deal if someone was looking for a truck and hitch.Some details:2003 Dodge RAM 3500 Dually rear wheel drive, red colorlong bed (8 ft) and rubber bed linerCummins 5.9L Turbo Diesel with ECM update, 220,000 miles6-speed manual transmissioncrew cab, all leather interiorjust installed new batteries 10/2015 ($315-)has some cosmetic wear but engine is perfectjust passed emissions test and renewed registration in DecemberI actually love this truck. I hauled my 33' fifth wheel across the country 3 times with no problem at all. I sold my RV earlier this year just because I never used it, and now just don't have much need for this truck.Please contact me with any questions before bidding. Due to insurance issues, I will not be able to allow test drives. I will be able to take it to a professional mechanic of your choice to have it checked out if you like. I may be able to show it as well. Truck is located in Chandler, Arizona.Thanks for looking at my ad and have a nice day!
