 I'm selling my 2001 Chevrolet Silverado 2500Hd as a project for someone with the time.  I bought this truck in Texas in 2010 with a service bed on it as it was a fleet truck for a communication company.  I checked at the dealer for service records and the dreaded injectors were replaced at 199k miles.  I recently checked them and are within +- 2.0 which is considered perfect working order.  I did the head gaskets last winter and it does not use coolant.  I bought a bed and welded a home made hitch in which is a pulling truck style but I used it daily for my lawn care business.  Truck has normal fleet damage some dents and scratches.  Overall I would rate the body 6 of 10.  The interior has been used and cleans up okay.  Some panels broke inside but nothing major.  Non smoker for it's entire life.  Windshield has been cracked since I bought it.  Now to the reason it's a project.  I had a built Allison Trans in it that I removed and sold to my cousin and he gave me his good stock one in return.  I don't have the time to mess with it and just want to move on.  Truck ran great the day I pulled the built trans out.  Would make a great pulling truck or a great work truck.  I did use it one year to plow snow.  The truck is virtually rust free because it spent most of its life in Texas.   Truck is being sold AS IS and as a project. It does have a clean title that I have in hand.  I can deliver for a fee or help you load at my house.  Any questions feel free to text me at 5134101446.  Truck is no reserve so one bid and it's gone.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum

Fri, 02 May 2014

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
