I have owned this truck since 1981. I purchased it in Reno, Nevada and it was originally sold in Reno. I have used it for a daily driver, hunting, and all of the other things trucks are used for but I have always over-maintained it and taken exceptional care of the truck. It has been garaged for all but 2 of the 33 years I've owned it. As you can see by the listing it has about 275,000 miles. I purchased it with 41,157 miles. As is indicated, I have only driven the truck about 17,000 miles in the last 10 years. I bought another truck in 2007 and only drive this truck occasionally now. It has taken me quite a few years to come to the point where I can finally consider selling it. It has been a great truck for me. Many of the drivetrain components have been replaced over the years and I have maintenance records to show when the repairs were done. My maintenance records are detailed and include receipts. Have the build sheet out of the original seat in fair condition. I have completed most of the maintenance myself. It has surface rust on the undercarriage as shown in the photos. I removed a dime sized rust spot on the passenger door 8 or so years ago by cutting the metal away and replacing it with new metal. As the same time I coated the lower body side with 3M Rocker Schutz coating to resist paint chips before the final paint was applied. A few years before that, I cut ventilation areas in the bottom of the rocker areas behind the front doors to prohibit water collection and arrest rust formation. Rust preventative was applied and rust that had begun to appear in those areas has not progressed in over 10 years. I will provide photos if there is concern about rust on the truck. Engine/Drivetrain 7/2004 258,571 Mles
The front and rear differential gears are stock. They are 4.10 gear ratio and both differentials are open. I have always changed the gear oil and replaced seals as necessary. The 4-wheel-dirve works well. Lock the hubs and shift it in, no issues. I had the shifter professionally shortened in order to provide more center seat leg room. The shortened lever does not affect the ability to shift to 4wd.
Brakes; Front got new calipers, pads, and hardware at 245,632. Rear; always checked and maintained. Tires; New BFG Radial Mud Terrain LT/255/85R16 at 262,981. Alcoa OEM alloy wheels from newer style Chevrolet HD pickup. New Steering Gear at 240,666. Anti-sway bar added to front axle to improve cornering. Also has steering stabilizer. New Vortex mufflers at approximately 270,000. Front seat out of newer Chevrolet pickup. Cloth upholstery with headrests and integral seat belts. Seat is bolted through floor to steel plate that connects front and rear bolts. After-market cruise control that works but has issues on some settings. Accessories:
Comes with the following: Original Chevrolet owner, service, and assembly manuals, Chilton's service manual, original steering wheel in good condition, additional tailgate guard, other miscellaneous parts. Oil changed at 274,492 a couple of weeks ago. Mobil 1 Full Syn 10w-30. I have tried to describe the truck the best I can. It runs good and drives nice. It is a very nice example of a well maintained truck, some might consider it babied. It is not perfect and is not a show truck as I have never restored it. I can be contacted with any questions and will be happy to provide honest answers to the best of my ability.

GM hard at work on Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra PHEV pickups
Wed, Feb 21 2024Autoweek heard from sources at General Motors and Ford about how each automaker is addressing the dip in EV enthusiasm and sales. At General Motors, AW reports, "plug-in hybrid versions of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra are headed to market, in a hurry." The sources gave no timeline for when the trucks might appear. GM CEO Mary Barra told analysts during GM's Q4 2023 earnings call, "Let me be clear, GM remains committed to eliminating tailpipe emissions from our light-duty vehicles by 2035, but in the interim, deploying plug-in technology in strategic segments will deliver some of the environmental benefits of EVs as the nation continues to build its charging infrastructure." It's too soon to predict how the Chevy Silverado EV and GMC Sierra EV will fare on the market, the Silverado EV Work Truck still the only one available to customers. It might be better for GM if they're not too popular at first, the automaker's cautious EV production ramp-up and recent software setbacks responsible for some still-healthy reservation rolls. Barra said the company plans to build between 200,000 and 300,000 EVs, this year, which would clear that backlog. Heading into the end of February, with the Chevy Bolt out of the picture and additional EV pickup production pushed to 2025, our Spidey senses feel those are optimistic numbers. The Chevy Bolt was the third-best-selling EV in the U.S. last year, at 62,044 units. GM didn't have another vehicle in the top ten. Furthermore, the combined sales of every EV in the top ten after the Bolt — seven models from six manufacturers — is only just over 200,000 units. The Blazer EV and Equinox EV could make it happen, but there's no way Chevy wants to rush those, the Blazer EV still in software purgatory.  The report speaks of collateral damage, GM said to have canceled an electric pickup sized below the Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz. Automotive News said it saw the truck in January 2023, describing it as a futuristic two-door with a low roof and a 4.5-foot cargo bed. A new full-size van program supposedly got the axe as well, eliminating the plan to put a new Chevy Express and GMC Savana on a Brightdrop EV chassis. Over at Ford, AW says its sources mentioned another canceled midsizer; Ford's apparently stopped working on an EV pickup sized a bit below the Nissan Frontier.
Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
