This auction is for the sale of my Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Pickup truck. The combination of the DuraMax Diesel and Allison Transmission make it the ideal combination of power and economy for towing. I use it to tow my race car. I previously had a Dodge Dually 3500 with the Cummins diesel, and this rig tows better, and returns better economy. I get up to 21 MPG on the highway unladen, and up to 15 MPG towing my race car and trailer (7,200 #) The 4WD gets you out of rough terrain situations when needed, and it would make an excellent snow plowing machine, even though I never plowed with this unit. It comes with a Class IV hitch receiver. The one Ton rating comes as a Single Rear Wheel arrangement rather than a Dually, and I find it to actually be better for my application. I can park the unit easier in tight spots, I save on tolls fees on Toll Roads like the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway, and the slimmer lines seem to contribute to better fuel milage. All this with very little sacrifice of GVW Rating. I bought this truck about 3 years ago with 140,000 miles on it, and it has been a flawless performer. It has never let me down. The previous owner never towed with this vehicle. He used it to deliver show dogs back and forth to Viginia, so the early part of the vehicles life and the majority of the accumulated milage has been light duty usage. I've only towed my low stressed trailer for the last 15,000 miles, so overall wear and tear on the vehicle is about as low as you can find. It is certainly not even at Half-Life status. The reason for selling this rig is the need to move on to a higher capacity vehicle due to an expansive effort with the race car that will demand a larger trailer that can haul more equipment. I am so sold on this Trucks mechanical combination of DuraMax and Allison, that I have chosen to stay with GMC and have selected the TopKick-Kodiak series for the longer wheelbase/load capacity that they offer. I have just installed new tires up front and the backs will take you anywhere you want to go for at least another 12,000 miles. I am not aware of this truck needing anything. I merely turn the key, and off I go. I am an Industrial forklift mechanic by trade and I religiously change the oil and filters every 5,000 miles using the best Synthetic oils and filters. The interior is in excellent, near new condition which is a reflection of the light duty usage. The only body flaw can be found in the picture that shows an area on the left rear corner (below the 4X4 decal) that has been disturbed by the previous owners relative that accidently backed into the truck while maneuvering in her driveway. There is slight deformation of the sheetmetal, and I often thought I would take care of the damage myself, but it constantly gets put off because it doesn't look that bad. I think a little work with a soft plastic hammer could straightened out the area, and it doesn't even need paint. Review the pictures and you will find added extras like Window rain guards, tinted glass, a HD GM bed liner, AM-FM CD Sirius Radio, Floor mats, Full length entry step bar under both doors, and more. The high quality lo-profile fiberglass cap keeps the wind resistance low and contributes to the highest milage attainable. It also lets you park the truck under low clearance garage door spaces. Check my flawless E-Bay rating to put your mind at ease in acquiring this trouble free truck. Any further questions will be answered by my Home phone (908) 534-5341 between 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM (EST) or cell phone (609) 847-0738 during the day. Please don't call after 10:00 PM (EST). I would prefer local pickup , but will consider delivery at reasonable cost.

Buick Encore, Chevy Trax earn Top Safety Pick from IIHS [w/video]
Thu, Feb 12 2015The Buick Encore has been a massive sales success practically from the moment it debuted, and Buick recently decided to increase production to keep up with demand for the premium compact crossover. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently put one to the test again, and the Encore earned a Top Safety Pick award. It's the first model from the brand to score the nod since 2013, according to the IIHS, and the rating also carries over to the 2015 Chevrolet Trax. The 2015 Encore scored a Good rating in all of the IIHS' evaluations, including the 40-mile-per-hour, small overlap front crash test. That was a big improvement over the previous model the institute tested, which scored a Poor result in the overlap test. In the first test, about 13 inches of the lower door hinge pillar came into the passenger compartment, and the steering wheel airbag moved too far to protect the dummy's head. Improvements for the latest model year showed six inches of intrusion this time, and the airbags caught the dummy's head well. The dummy's sensors also indicated a low risk of injury. The two CUVs missed out on the full Top Safety Pick+ because the IIHS scored the Encore as only having a basic front crash prevention system, and there was no such equipment for the Trax. To earn the highest mark, models need at least an advanced rating by the institute for this technology. Buick Encore, Chevrolet Trax earn 2015 TOP SAFETY PICK award ARLINGTON, Va. - A small SUV is the first vehicle from the Buick brand to qualify for a TOP SAFETY PICK award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety since 2013. The Buick Encore's newly introduced, lower-priced twin, the Chevrolet Trax, also qualifies for the honor. The Encore's award follows improvements to the SUV's structure for better small overlap front protection. The 2015 model earns a good rating in the small overlap test. In contrast, the 2013-14 Encore rated poor in the test. The driver's space was seriously compromised with intrusion measuring as much as 13 inches at the lower door hinge pillar. The dummy's head barely contacted the front airbag before sliding off the left side, as the steering column moved to the right. The side curtain airbag deployed too late and didn't have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head. In the latest test, the driver space was maintained reasonably well, with maximum intrusion of 6 inches at the door hinge pillar and instrument panel. The dummy's movement was well-controlled.
New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios.
