1985 K-10 1/2 Ton 4 X 4 short wheel base.  This truck was bought new in Little Rock, AR, and has remained in Arkansas for its' entire life. We are the third owners.  This truck has always been properly cared for and it definitely shows.  It has all the original paint that is in very good condition, except for the hood which is peeling. The hood could easily be repainted, but we chose to leave all original.  Lots of money has been spent mostly by the second owner.  He wanted the dependability of fuel injection, so he purchased a new GM Ram Jet fuel injected 350 (330 HP) crate motor and had it professionally installed.  This installation included factory fuel pumps in the tanks identical to the 1987 model.  At the time of installation, all new accessories were installed along with factory serpentine belt system. The 700 R4 transmission was also completely rebuilt and beefed up at this time. The truck has approximately 26,000 miles since this work was performed. All door and window rubber and weather strips have been replaced with new.  We have installed a Rough Country 4 inch suspension lift (springs in front/blocks in rear), 35/1250/15 BFG Mud Terrains (currently 75% tread remaining) on the factory rally wheels, all new shocks, new front rotors/pads, repacked front bearings with new seals, and new Pioneer stereo system with Kenwood speakers (in factory locations). Everything works as it should: cold a/c, heat, all gauges, power windows/door locks, wipers, lights, and 4-wheel drive system.  Cruise control is all there, just not hooked up. The truck was ordered from the factory with limited slip differential and engine oil cooler.  This truck has absolutely no rust other than very little surface rust on hood. This truck is very solid and tight.  Lots of receipts on items not mentioned, pictures speak for themselves.  This truck runs, drives, and stops as it should.  Still has the original owner's manuals. Interior is in very good shape with no signs of being smoked in. The factory jack and tools are still mounted under the hood.The odometer is showing 76,555, we do not  know if that is actual. If you have any questions, please email or feel free to call Allen at 479-207-2946.

Engine block heater issues force GM to recall 324,226 diesel heavy duty trucks

Tue, May 7 2019

General Motors has issued a recall on 324,226 diesel heavy duty trucks that could be susceptible to short circuits, and consequently, potential fire. The recall affects several models of heavy duty Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierras with optional engine block heaters. GM is recalling seven different truck models spread across three years. The recall affects the 2017-2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, 2017-2019 Silverado 3500HD, 2019 Silverado 4500HD, 2019 Silverado 5500HD, and 2019 Silverado 6500HD, plus the 2017-2019 GMC Sierra 2500HD and 2017-2019 Sierra 3500HD. Specifically, it includes these models with the 6.6-liter Duramax diesel engines and the optional engine block heater. The recall technically deals not with the engine block heater itself, but the way it is connected. According to NHTSA campaign No. 19V328000, the engine block heater cord or the terminals that link the cord to the heater could short circuit. A short circuit could potentially damage engine components and result in a fire. According to The Detroit News, 19 fires have been reported but nobody has been injured. GM has yet to figure out a fix, and thus has not yet released a notification schedule for affected customers. If you believe your vehicle is part of the recall, contact GM customer service at 1-586-596-1733 and use reference number N182206310.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

Hot air balloons caught in high winds drag fullsize SUV

Mon, Jul 20 2015

A sudden storm front whipped up enough wind to send some hot air balloons flying into the air in Wisconsin over the weekend. One ballon proved so energetic that it was able to drag a fullsize SUV across a field and into a stand of tents. The freak accident occurred at Balloonfest in Waterford, Wisconsin. Spectators were horrified as balloons dragged handlers to the ground and launched with terrified pilots clinging to their baskets. Organizers had started packing up the colorful balloons due to ominous storm clouds when the wind kicked up. "Happened just like that; it was crazy," Nathan Fricke, crew member, told Fox 6. Winds were clocked at 40 to 50 miles per hour. A balloon caught in the wind dragged a large SUV (we think a Suburban or Yukon XL) hundreds of feet and into a cluster of tents on the edge of the staging area where balloons were on display for festival goers. Considering that the SUV surely weighs well over 5,000 pounds, it's lucky that no one was injured in the incident. News Source: Fox6Now Weird Car News Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
