Up for sale is a well maintained 1996 Chevrolet (Chevy) S-10 pick-up. This truck has been in our family since it was new. I have owned the vehicle since around 40,000 miles and I am the second owner. This was my first vehicle and as such it has been well maintained and given plenty of TLC over the years. The truck currently has 211,XXX miles and is still my daily driver after 15 years of ownership. Vehicle is fully documented from mile 1 showing all regularly scheduled maintenance, upgrades and repairs. Documentation will accompany the vehicle for the new owner.

The 1996 model year was part the last body style of the S-10 that Chevy would produce before the 2WD model ended production in 2003. This truck has the Vortec 4.3L V6 which puts out 175 HP and 240 ft-lbs of torque (same as the SS models). It also has the five-speed manual transmission which was not available with the SS models (Chevy only offered them with automatic transmission). Onyx black exterior has been paired with the graphite interior.

The truck has had a few cosmetic modifications over the years with the addition of Super Sport / SS badging all around and the standard grille was replaced with a flat black one to better match the color of the truck and replicate the SS look which had color coordinating grilles. The original silver grille is included with the truck if the new owner wants to restore the truck to its factory appearance.

Other than the expected minor wear and some surface rust in a couple locations, there is no damage to the vehicle. The truck was involved in a minor incident in the early 2000s. Another driver backed into in it with their hitch receiver, denting the front bumper and permanently deforming the plastic license plate mount. All damaged components were replaced with brand new OEM/GM parts. All of the original parts which were removed as part of the repair will be included with the truck as well.

The interior is in very good condition. There is one small tear in the driver's seat which is part of 60/40 split bench design. Options on this vehicle include power steering, power brakes (disc front / drum rear), AC, AM/FM stereo with CD player and full size spare tire. Also included with the truck is a Truxedo tonneau cover (Lo Pro QT #543101) and form fitting all-weather indoor/outdoor car cover. The bed cover and car cover alone are worth over $500. Might make a nice custom project to drop in a V8 or just continue to use it as a low budget daily driver.

Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions and I would be happy to answer them. I am available to show the vehicle most evenings after 5:30PM CT or on weekends. We are located in Plymouth, Minnesota (Minneapolis - Twin Cities) and have the clear title in hand.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

Opel Ampera-e brings a Bolt of EV driving to Europe

Fri, Feb 12 2016

The Chevrolet Bolt will take a trip across the Atlantic in 2017 to become Europe's Opel Ampera-e. General Motors won't release any specs for the foreign version yet, but these photos suggest very minor styling tweaks to the upper level of the grille and to the hatchback to add the appropriate brand emblems. We would expect the same electric motor with 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque and 60-kWh battery as the US model, too. However, the 200-mile range number might change, but only because of the differences in European testing. GM CEO Mary Barra announced the Ampera-e at the CAR Symposium in Bochum, Germany. "GM and Opel have always been convinced that electric cars will play a defining role in future mobility. The game-changing technology of the Ampera-e is a significant step toward realizing that vision," she said. The Ampera-e is also proof that General Motors loves confusing naming for its green models. If the Volt and Bolt aren't perplexing enough, the Ampera-e is just one letter off from the Ampera – the previous-gen Volt in Europe. GM no longer sells the range-extended vehicle there, so at least both names can't be in showrooms simultaneously. However, the similar monikers still might confuse some customers who think the new EV hatchback is closely related to the old sedan.

Opel Group will launch a revolutionary new battery electric car next year, as the company continues the biggest, most far-reaching model offensive in its history with 29 new models between 2016 and 2020. The new five-door, five seat will be called "Ampera-e". It will not only have a longer range on a full charge than most electric cars, it will also be affordably priced. Building on the electrification expertise established with the original Ampera, which set the benchmark for modern electric cars in 2011, the new Ampera-e combines innovative electric-mobility with state-of-the-art connectivity and exciting driving dynamics. Announcing the Ampera-e today at the CAR Symposium in Bochum, Germany, GM Chairman & CEO Mary Barra said: "GM and Opel have always been convinced that electric cars will play a defining role in future mobility.

Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
