Reason for selling
My plan was to acquire this truck and a 3 car hauling trailer and use the combination to pick up and deliver new and used wheelchair vans, as I am in my 10th year in business as a dealer of wheelchair vans. I did acquire an awesome Featherlite 3 car trailer. However, after spending 6 months getting this truck and the trailer combo together, after one trip it became apparent to me that my plan to use the equipment was not going to make good business sense, for a few different reasons. That is why this truck is now for sale.
Options and Equipment
Please look closely at the window sticker to the right, for this amazing truck. I am not positive, but I believe it has every feature possible on a standard cab, 4x2, dually. I personally ordered this via an acquaintance that owns the Ram dealership where I ordered. We worked together to navigate the ordering process. My clear goal, which he was great about helping me accomplish, was to end up with the most pulling/towing/hauling ability AND the most luxury and comforts AND the most attractive AND the most ease and safety. As you see in the photos, I have the original brochure and I believe that if you were to devour it (as I did when ordering) you would find no feature that was available that it doesn't have. If there is something missing, it is a minor feature. Long list of Accessories (total cost/value of parts and labor apx. $3,700)
In addition to the long list of options and features listed on the factory window sticker, there were several features professionally added, either at the dealer where I bought it, or by pro's after I owned the truck. Here is that list:
* Dodge dealer installed chrome running boards (apx $500)
* Dodge dealer installed heavy-duty mud flaps front and rear (apx $300)
* Dodge dealer installed entry threshold plates (apx $150)
* Dodge dealer activated navigation (apx $500)
* Dodge dealer installed chrome side moldings on the doors ($150)
* Dodge dealer installed floor mats ($75)
* Locally Pro-installed paint-protection film installed in several areas: front of hood and fenders; on the entire upper surfaces of the running boards; on the interior entry threshold plates; on the entire top section of the dually bedsides (apx $ 600)
* Locally Pro-installed bed cover has: rigid ribs for support; locking; rolls up when not in use; Velcro along sides to help secure it (apx $600)
* Locally Pro-installed rubber bed mat with custom plugs cut for where the towing-access points in the bed are ( apx $250)
* Internet purchase: quick-release gooseneck ball and safety chain anchor points (these items insert into factory slots in the bed) ( apx. 250)
* Locally pro-applied: fabric and surface protection treatment on nearly the entire interior (apx. 300)
* Custom cover is fitted and breathable ($250)

History of Ownership
I am a 55 year owner of this wheelchair van dealership. I ordered this new and my brother and I are the only ones who have driven it, other than a few miles locally by employees. It had only one trip of apx 4,500 miles, which accrued nearly all of these very few miles. It drove empty on highways to Texas and then returned with a 3 car aluminum trailer (7,000 pounds) with two wheelchair vans on it. That's the extent of any work this truck has done. That load was only about 18,000 pounds, for less than 2,000 miles. I was driving it when the load was apx 18k and of course it handled it like there was scarcely a load at all. Only a couple of times did it get below 5th gear, never below 4th.

Summary of this Gem
If your goals have you seeking a standard cab dually 4x2, this is the one to buy. It is in as close to brand new condition as one could possibly be. Plus, given the extent of proper, professionally installed accessories, combined with its like-new condition, one could say that this truck fits the classic comment of...better than new.

A loaded dually standard cab is very rare. I’ve not seen even one other highly equipped standard cab dually. This is a very rare truck. |

These interior colors are not quite true, due to the lighting when I took the photos. It’s a very rich, luxurious and inviting color scheme |
