Up for sale is a 1995 Chevrolet Caprice that has been completely gone through. There are NO check engine lights, ALL the windows roll up and down and it starts up every time. I am the second owner since 2006 and was purchased from an elderly gentleman when it had approx 55k miles. Body has 127k now but the motor has approx 85k on it. It came with the standard 4.3 V8 but in may of 2012 I started to overhaul the car and here's a list of what was changed/added. 
**Newly Updated**
**Added a 120 amp alternator built by TRS as well as a new Duralast starter***
-1994 REAL corvette motor (5.7 Lt1) ($1200) purchased from Coastal Corvettes in Mims,Fl (you can tell its real by the aluminum block and composite valve covers) 
-Lt4 hot cam from Jegs($249)
-Lt4 valve springs($50)
-msd opti-spark with cap & rotor($620)
-ngk spark plugs ($24)
-duralast thermostat($25)
-Ac delco water pump (made in USA!!)($310)

-motor mounts($25)
-new radiator for impala ss ($100)

-bought and installed a used set up from friend that came with polished fuel rail, ported intake manifold at 58mm and ported BBK throttle body 58mm to match that came with a set of ford racing 28lb injectors est at a value for ($500) however I am also throwing in the original intake manifold, fuel rail, and throttle body that came with the corvette motor and a set of barely used 30lb venom injectors ($245) that I originally intended on using that I bought from Jegs.
-new air dam($25)
-BRAND NEW 4L60e TRANSMISSION with performance upgrade shift kit for automatics (with my used shell) from All Transmission World ($1000 at a discounted price) not including install

-black powder coated impala SS rim($450) are still nice looking but of the rims paint are starting to spider web crack if you look closely.
-z rated tires over ($850)
-single din pioneer ($100) 
-power akoustik 6x9s and 4x6s ($200)
-new carpet (I forgot the $ maybe 80-120 range)
*rear gears are still the stock 2.73? Gears because it does great on the highway that way and has a higher top end speed but if you are looking for a quick bottom end speed (0-60) you can easily change them to 3.42 or 3.73 for $400 with installation. But with the setup it has now it easily gets 20mpg highway! City mpg all depends on your right foot! 
*other than that I think that's everything, there is an extremely small oil leak coming from the bottom of the timing chain cover that's almost negligible but I am detail oriented. Paint is starting to peel in certain places (front bumper, back bumper, etc) and there are pings from the inside of the trunk that are visible on the outside. Car was painted back in 2009 but I was unhappy with it and made them repaint it 2 more times and I was still not fully satisfied even though they charged me around $1,900

2020 Ford Escape hybrids vs other crossover fuel sippers: How they compare on paper

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Along with a new generation of Escape, Ford also reintroduced the world to the 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid. And if that weren't enough, Ford is adding a plug-in hybrid version. This is a sign of the times: people are more crossover crazy than ever, but are also seeking ways to use less fuel, whether it's for environmental or purely money-motivated reasons. The Ford hybrids aren't the only fuel-efficient compact crossovers on the market. They will be going head-to-head with conventional hybrids including the 2019 Kia Niro, 2019 Nissan Rogue Hybrid and 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. There are other plug-in hybrids including the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek PHEV, 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and the plug-in version of the 2019 Kia Niro. There are even a couple diesels in the form of the 2019 Chevy Equinox and 2019 GMC Terrain. So we've rounded up the details on all these crossovers to see who leads and lags in criteria such as power, fuel efficiency, space and price. Check out all their details below. 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid View 68 Photos How do their engines and fuel economy compare? Conventional Hybrids and Diesels Let's face it, if you're buying one of these crossovers, one of the things that matters most to you is just how frugal with fuel they are. We'll start off with the conventional hybrids and diesels, and the clear victor is the Kia Niro, which in base FE trim, manages to hit 50 mpg combined. This is thanks to it sharing its powertrain with the Hyundai Ioniq, the Hyundai equivalent of the Toyota Prius. Buyers should take note that only the FE returns such high fuel economy. The LX and EX drop to 49 mpg, and the S Touring and Touring get 43. Even then, the least efficient Niro is the most efficient of the normal hybrids and diesels. It is nearly the least powerful, though, with 139 horsepower. Just behind it is the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. It delivers 40 mpg combined, and it has an ace up its sleeve: it comes standard with all-wheel drive. Every other vehicle in this powertrain group has front drive standard, and the Niro isn't available with all-wheel drive at all. If that weren't enough, the RAV4 Hybrid also boasts the most power at 219 horses. While we can't say anything about Escape Hybrid fuel economy, we do know that it will make 198 horsepower, which is close to the class-leading RAV4. The least powerful of these is the Equinox and Terrain, and they return the worst fuel economy at 32 mpg.

Chevy: The Big Game

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad
