I will be out of the state July 12-14 and the truck will not be available until after that if auction is allowed to end. 

I also reserve the right to end this auction at ANY TIME (to include if the BIN is used without my knowledge) due to local sale or trade-in. 

If you want to know about this truck, READ BELOW, don't just look at the few pictures I am allowed to post and ask me questions that are covered below!

The stereo in the pics does not come with it. It will have the factory working am/fm cassette put back in. The lower plow mount and joystick/wiring does not come with it either.

This is my very reliable '94 S10. It was purchased new by my Step Father, then I bought it in '06 with 196k miles. The truck now has 290,300 and is going up daily at a rate of 85 miles a day, or more. This truck is in exceptional shape for being a nearly 20yr old Michigan truck. I would, and do drive this truck ANYWHERE without a concern as does my wife and daughter. I would gladly keep this truck but the wife is tired of me stealing her Tahoe all weekend long to trailer my drag car so it's time for me to step up to a full size.

BASICS; 

4.3L High Output 195 Horsepower Vortec CPI engine. Runs great, just got new plugs, wires, cap, and rotor within the last month. Valve seals (have new ones just never put in), and or guides are worn so it smokes at start-up and has done this for several years, yet it still doesn't consume hardly any oil in 3000 miles between oil changes. Has 40lbs oil pressure going down the road and about 25lbs at idle. Service Engine Soon light comes on after engine is up to temp and cruise control is set due to the EGR valve being unhooked because of an internal short which blows fuses. I can hook up a scanner to prove this is the only reason the light comes on. I've had the EGR unhooked for several years in this fashion without issue other than staring at the SES light. In the summer the truck gets 20-21MPG and on the junk winter blend gets 17-18MPG routinely on my 85 mile/day commute.  

4L60E 4spd Automatic Transmission. Works great, doesn't slip, shifts as it should with no problems.

Transfer Case/4wd. Manual floor mounted selector, 4 HI and 4 LO work as they should with no problems.

Tires. 31x10.50/15 Goodyear Wranglers with tons of tread left.

Chassis. I just put a Moog problem solver pitman arm on the truck and it still could use an alignment. A few years ago I also put a Moog problem solver idler arm on it, and I want to say in '07 the front steering components were replaced; ball joints, tie rod ends, and tie rods. I also just put in a new transmission mount and torsion bar mount. The rear springs have a Pro-Comp "add-a-leaf" in them so it doesn't squat when you put a measly 100#s in the box. Rear axle pinion seal has a small leak. The gas tank was replaced with a lifetime warranted Gas Tank Renu tank in '07. There is a trailer hitch and wiring on the truck and I have towed my car trailer with car on it, and one time even our old 25' travel trailer 30 miles (not recommended). The truck also got a new radiator this spring, or last fall as well as new rear brake drums/shoes around the same time. I have receipts for mostly everything I have put into this truck over the course of my ownership. The ABS module is unhooked and has been since my Step Dad owned it and nearly rear ended someone with it hooked up. 

Body. Box, tailgate, front d-side fender, grill, and rocker panels were replaced in 2009 after hitting a deer, that is also when it was prepped, sealed, and repainted by myself so there are imperfections in the paint ie; runs, and orange peel. Cab corners were "repaired" in '06 but as you can see they are gone again. The hood has a spot where a chemical soaked rag was layed on it shortly after it was painted :-{  can be seen in one of the pics. There are also the normal scratches/gouges, dents, and surface rust as seen in the pics.

Interior. There is one nickel size hole in the driver's seat and that is it for the seats other than stains. The carpet is very stained from hauling parts, and kids over the course of nearly 20yrs. The headliner is in good shape without any drooping. One of the hinges on the glovebox is broken but it still shuts and latches as if nothing is wrong. The cup holder between the front seats no longer attaches to the mount as it should so I have a glove stuffed under it to keep it up. The plastic pcs on the outside of the jumper seats are cracked. The backrest adjustment knob is broken off of the driver's seat. The heater blower motor only works on low or full high, if placed in the middle settings smoke WILL come out of the dashboard. I believe it needs a new resistor but I didn't care to fix it as high and low worked just fine for me all winter long. 

Air Conditioning used to work very well but the front seal on the compressor leaked out all the charge so it would need a new compressor to have working AC. Since up until this year the truck was solely my winter driver I didn't care about having working AC.

The truck runs and drives good, and is very dependable as previously stated. In my opinion it rides rather stiff as a truck should. At the moment there is nothing that HAS to be done to drive it routinely as I am currently doing so daily and did all winter long, and all the winters prior. However as stated it could use an alignment since the new pitman arm so you don't destroy those expensive tires, and the exhaust pipe at the muffler rotted out and dropped and I have only tacked it back into place for now so it has a "tone" to it but is not overly noisy by any means. Most likely I will take care of this prior to the sale anyhow.

After Thoughts. There is a small chip on the passenger side of the windshield. The truck also has a working BullDog Remote Starter. Truck has a 3.42 gear ratio.

I have gobs more pictures than eBay allows me to post here, and much more history/info I could add so message me with any direct concerns or questions for things I may have missed or you would like cleared up. Also feel free to come and look at it in person. I plan on having the truck sitting across from the Midway Market on M-21 just east of M-13 in Lennon over the Holiday weekend but call to be sure. To view, or discuss it other than when it's out there call; 989-525-three two five six

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
