Here is a 1996 Dodge Ram 1500, short bed, extended cab, one family owned, pick-up truck. I bought it new in San Diego and drove it there for 9 years, then sold it to my son and 3 years later he sold it to my daughter when he joined the Marines. I am NOT selling this as a perfect vehicle and I will give an honest assessment of it. The main reason for us selling it is it has a stalling problem that none of our small town mechanics can seem to take care of and has become unreliable in the sense that I don't want my daughter driving around in it. The truck runs fine but after warming up, will just stop when coming to a light or stop sign. It is able to be started up instantly and continue on. When moving, it performs like it should. Basically, I am selling this as a parts or project truck and want it understood that it does have issues. Now I will tell you about it.......... It has NEVER been in an major accident, but has some body damage due to inexperienced young drivers (and their friends bumping into it with thier vehicles). Most I have pushed and pulled out so none of them affect the opperation of it and from a distance it looks prettyn good. (pics of truck bed show most of them) I will list whats wrong first: Cruise control does not function. Automatic door locks do not function (switch problem) but they do opperate fine with keys or manually. Passenger window does not function due to a switch problem. Radiator may need cleaning (rodding). Water pump was replaced not to long ago. NOTE: This truck does NOT have power seats of any kind. This Ebay form wouldn't allow me to state that fact and insisted it has a front power seat. IT DOES NOT! Now the features: Nice CD player, 50% tread on tires with factory mag wheels, excellent factory spare and jacking kit, drives straight and brakes well, smooth transmission, nice interior with no tares in upholstery but headliner has separated just a bit by the windshield, A/C and Heating still work great, fairly new battery, new fuel pump, good glass all around with sliding rear window, all lights work, is somewhat drivable, clear title, AND I do have the tow package that was on it at one time but got removed by my son (that is included). Still has the brake box inside the truck. (I can't guarantee the brake box functions, but most likely does) The trailer seen in the pictures was never towed by this truck and frankly it never towed anything heavier than a utility trailer occasionally. Honestly, we have taken care of and maintained this truck and despite all I have written, has been an excellent truck.
