1999 dodge ram 2500 diesel for sale craigslist

Aug 22, 2013Craigslist Find

Scott Brown gets the credit for finding this interesting creation lurking on the Dallas, Georgia Craigslist listings. When viewed from certain angles, this 1999 Dodge looks like every other one ton dually the company produced in the late 1990s. The body is a little hammered and the front bumper has made a break for it at some point, but otherwise it is a relatively stock looking truck. Things go right to the sublime redline when you see it from the side, though. Why? The owner has modified the truck’s frame and bed by adding an additional five feet of length to both! We’re trying to figure out why he did that, but we suspect it was done to aid in pulling some big goose neck trailers or something of that nature. We don’t think it was simply an exercise in “just seeing what it would look like.”

The truck is otherwise pretty much stock. The seller claims that the engine has been spruced up with a high performance computer chip, it has four new shocks, cold AC, and a trick vent cut into the front fender as a cold air induction system to help the engine breathe easier. Both the chip and the cold air intake also lead us to believe that this truck has hauled some mondo trailers in its day. We wish the seller had included a photo or two of the driveshaft. Can you imagine what that thing looks like? It has to have one or more carrier bearings…right?

Two other downsids? Losing a turning radius contest to a cruise ship and being able to maneuver officially zero parking lots in the known universe.

So what do you think? Why did this guy modify the truck to have a 13-foot long bed?
