This is an auction for " SILVER " my beloved Dodge Ram 2500 5.9 diesel 4x4 Quad cab ( not mega ) with tow package. HIYO SILVER ! Permanent California truck. Stock truck with no aftermarket additions. No real four wheel off road mileage. I have owned too many vehicles to count and this Dodge Ram truck is by far my favorite truck ever. It is just simply the strongest, best running, most stable handling truck I have ever owned. The sweet whistling sound of the turbo winding up @ 55-60 MPH rolling down the interstate is simply music to a man's ears. I bought it " used " from Haddad Dodge in Bakersfield Ca., Sept 11th 2009, with 18K miles on it. I had looked all over and found different and cheaper trucks, but this was " the one ". It had factory maintenance before I bought it as a " certified " vehicle. I personally changed the oil myself @ 3K mile intervals after buying it. It was also changed twice in a lube shop due to schedule only. The owners manual recommends an oil change at 15K mile intervals. It was changed at 3K mile intervals anyway. Initially with "Delo" then switched to Rotella. Air/fuel filters were changed with oil changes. The auto transmission was serviced at factory recommended 30K intervals with oil/filter changes. I planned on this being the last vehicle I would ever own so she was babied and pampered. It has 116,000 + miles on it now. I worked as a paramedic out of town and commuted 200 miles + - for shifts so 90% of miles are highway miles. I have replaced 1 set of tires/ brakes as needed, but other than that no major repairs/issues. I used to normally put 3-4K miles per month on it until 2 years ago when I switched jobs and now fly to work out of state. I do not even put 3K miles a year now on her and subsequently.....I am going to sell her. Everything works on it. Everything. Even the factory sliding " sunroof" works letting sun in and stress out. I don't use 4 wheel drive here in California but I would take it off road once or twice a year/6 months or so and engage the 4 wheel system and drive in 4 low & 4 high. Forward and backward, full lock left to full lock right to move everything around to lube it up. I placed it on a "non op" last March and have only driven it to be " smog checked "at a local shop. It has newer tires Hercules 285/70 R17 on it with 9K miles on them. Has 2 new batteries also in March. Comes with spare/emergency serpentine belt and both radiator hoses. Has tool box in bed. The bad : This is the only negatives I have encountered 1) The back slider window was broken out parked in a " secure " parking lot and replaced with factory glass. 2) The front drivers door had minor ( non accident ) dings down low when I bought it and Dodge fixed them & painted as a condition of purchase. 3) The " plastic chrome " ( plastic factory grille ) is wrinkling/weathering on drivers side but still shiney. You can't see it in pictures but it's wrinkled up. 4) These trucks did have some kind of factory "adjustment" required in 2009 to meet emissions and these were performed at Dodge prior to my purchase. 4)There is a scuff on front and rear bumpers. Minor, and don't really show in pics but they are there. 5) Drivers seat has a tear on left side from getting in/out. Other seats weren't sat in much at all, I travel alone normally. Other than that, this is a remarkably strong truck with a TON of future miles left on her. Paint is shiney but 7 years old. Tires newer. Garaged most of the time. A/C blows ICE COLD. Everything works. EVERYTHING. This is not a show truck. This is a work truck, but not a whipped ranch truck, more of a " commuter " vehicle. I hate to sell it, but literally don't get to drive it anymore. I am realistic on price. I work in Gulf coast area and can bring to Texas/Louisiana area for fuel cost if you are buyer. I bought a stereo system recently but had not installed yet. If you use " BUY IT NOW " @ $ 21,500 I will include the Head unit, Infinity 10" & mid range speakers, with the " under the rear deck" molded speaker enclosure and the MONSTER Kicker ZX850x4 AMP= NEW in BOX. Over $1200 in "new in box" gear. Please feel free to call (713) 543-2437 my office from July 2nd to 16th, or my cell 661-431-3866 until July 2nd with questions. I will be out to sea from July 2nd to July 16th & my cell will be off/out of range. Again, I can deliver in Texas/Louisiana area for fuel costs. Must make arrangements prior to bidding/buying.
