I've seen the thread for what vehicles you own, but how many, or what type Mopars have you owned?

A Plymouth was my 1st car, but I started tinkering at 14 and knew at that age that Dodge was an innovator and the first to use torsion bars up front. I just never understood the logic of counter-clockwise lugs on the left side:confused2:.

Here's my list:

[*]'71 Plymouth Valiant, 198 slant 6

[*]'68 Plymouth GTX, 440/375 hp

[*]'73 Dodge Dart Sport, 340

[*]'50 Plymouth Deluxe Business Coupe, flat 6

[*]'04 Dodge 2500 4x quad cab, dsl

[*]'06 Dodge 3500 4x quad cab srw, dsl

Ok Dan! I didn't count ones with no engine! Regardless, that's a bunch. I drove a 350 Dodge dually with a utility bed at work back in the '90's. I never verified it to be a NP435 trans, but it shifted like a dream w/o the clutch all day.

My 93 shifted awesome. That was a great truck and alot of fun to drive. I oil sprayed that truck with STP oil treatment and 50 weight oil and that truck is still running around!

My sig is my list..

Racer Dan, you weren't one of the Dodge Dealerships that was closed down were you? :biggrin:

No I never had a dealership but I did race my car out of one in 1980 and my dad sold cars out of one after he retired from Chrysler in 1979.

I forgot one on my list we used to have an 03 Jeep Liberty Renegade also, Nice rig but only 16-17 mpg on a really good day which was just way too bad for me to want around for long couldn't justify a small rig that couldn't pull any weight and only getting the same milage as a full sized pickup.:mad:

That's like Mom's 96 Dodge 5.9L gasser it weights only 5,500# and gets 14 MPG compared to my Cummins at 8,000# that gets closer to 21-22 MPG... No contest...:lol3: But with winter fuel 17-18 MPG is about normal...:rolleyes2:

I cant even remember the years but..........70s Dodge Dart slant 670s Gran Fury 440 Police Interceptor2 1980s Ram Pickups, 1/2 ton 4 wd 318, 3/4 ton 4wd 360Current2005 Dodge Sprinter (if you can call it a Dodge?)2- 2006 Jeep Liberty CRD's2001 Freightliner FL50 225 HP ISB, (Daimler Chrysler)

What does the Sprinter have for an engine? I know it's a diesel but I don't know what size it is.
