ReviveRides welcomes donations of the Dodge Charger Pursuit (PPV / SSV) in Utah, a vehicle that has proudly served in law enforcement and municipal fleets. These ex-fleet vehicles typically transition through decommissioning programs that allow them to serve a new purpose in civilian hands. Whether it’s a well-used unit with high mileage or a lower-mileage find, your donation can make a significant difference.
Many of these Charger Pursuits come equipped with specialized features such as lightbars, cages, and push-bumpers, which are typically retained in the vehicle during the donation process. Donors can choose to remove these items, or the vehicle can be auctioned as equipped. Your old Charger can find new life, supporting our community while providing you with a hassle-free donation experience.
📖Generation guide
LX First-gen Pursuit • 2006-2010
The first generation of Charger Pursuit, featuring the 5.7L HEMI and 2.7L V6 options, with either RWD or optional AWD. This generation paved the way for modern police pursuits.
LD/LA Updated Pursuit • 2011-2014
This update introduced the 3.6L Pentastar V6, replacing the older 2.7L, and featured a refreshed interior, making it more comfortable for long shifts.
LD Refresh • 2015-2023
Refined technology and an 8-speed transmission characterized this generation, while the 5.7L HEMI V8 continued to dominate the performance landscape.
Final-LD • 2024-2026
The last iterations before the transition to the Stellantis next-gen platform retained the reliable HEMI while allowing departments to capitalize on existing fleet allocations.
Known issues by generation
When donating a Dodge Charger Pursuit, it’s essential to understand the generational issues that may affect higher-mileage units. The LX series (2006-2010) can face HEMI lifter failures, while the LD/LA line (2011-2014) is known for oil-cooler-housing leaks and early cylinder head failures. The LD Refresh (2015-2023) has experienced transmission shudders and occasional issues with AWD center coupling. The upcoming Final-LD (2024-2026) is less documented due to its recent production, but maintain awareness of potential fleet-cycle wear typical in vehicles reaching 200k+ miles.
Donation value by condition + generation
Donation values for the Dodge Charger Pursuit typically range from $1,800 to $4,500, depending on condition, mileage, and whether the vehicle retains its fleet-installed equipment. Clean-title examples or lower-mileage units, like the 2011 Crown Vic P71 Last-of-Production, may command higher values and require IRS Form 8283 Section B for appraisals. Additionally, consider the implications of a salvage title if the vehicle was involved in a pursuit-related collision, as this can affect resale value and the donor's tax deduction.
Donation process for this model
When donating a Dodge Charger Pursuit, donors are responsible for deciding whether to remove fleet-installed equipment such as push-bumpers, lightbars, and prisoner cages. If not removed, the vehicle may be auctioned with these items included. Donors should also ensure the transfer from fleet-title to civilian-title is handled correctly during registration to avoid complications. ReviveRides facilitates this process to ease your donation experience.
Utah regional notes
In Utah, the state DOT often auctions decommissioned vehicles, providing a familiar pipeline for Charger Pursuit owners. Municipal fleets typically follow a structured disposal process, making it easier for donors. Be aware that certain states, including Utah, may classify ex-pursuit vehicles as salvage if they were involved in a collision, so always verify with the DMV before your donation pickup.
