Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"The truck has some body damage consisting of a large dent on the passenger side of the tailgate, a medium sized dent above the wheel well on the passenger side of the bed, and some paint chipping on the lower corners of the bed/roll pan in the rear. The gas gauge doesn't work due to the use of a aftermarket fuel cell located in the bed. The ABS system was deleted to allow the front inner fenders to be cut in order to provide enough clearance of the tires to lay frame in the front. The emergency brake was deleted as it protruded below the frame to allow the truck to lay frame. The truck can be hard to start when it's cold due to the aftermarket fuel pump but it always starts after a few tries."

 I'm selling my custom 2000 Chevy S10 with the 4cyl 2.2l engine and 5 speed manual transmission. I just got the truck a couple months ago and I love it but I have to sell it for financial reasons otherwise i'd keep it. The truck was a project as most highly customized vehicles are so it needs some little things here and there to be 100% perfect but everything works and looks great as it sits. The truck has a high quality air bag suspension system that was professionally installed by the previous owner. The truck lays frame completely front and rear and looks awesome cruising down the road or layed out. This thing turns heads wherever it goes. It also has 18" chrome rims and the tires have about 60% tread left. Other custom work done to the truck includes a GMC Sonoma front end conversion with a more stylish bumper, grill, and headlights, a Chevy Blazer interior swap changing it from a bench seat to two buckets and a center console, an aftermarket 12 Gal fuel cell in the bed with a high flow inline fuel pump, a custom two tone red and black paint job with red metal flake throughout, relocated door handles to the bottom of the doors, a shaved gas door, a shaved tailgate handle, a black tonneau cover, smoked tail lights, and a Hurst T-handle shifter. The previous owner also did an electric radiator fan conversion which frees up some power and raises the gas mileage a bit. The aftermarket inline fuel pump makes the truck hard to start when it's cold so you'll have to crank it 3-5 times in the morning but it always starts. The suspension parts are all from Thorbecke Brothers, look them up they make the best parts for S10's. The front end has their tubular control arms and Airlift Dominator bags. The inner fender liners are cut to allow the truck to lay frame with 18" rims. The rear has their 5 link setup with frame notch, shocks, and Airlift Dominator bags for a high quality ride. There are 2 Viair 480C compressors hooked up to I think an 8 Gal tank in the bed. There are 8 valves for full FBSS control and a 10 switch control box in the cab that does FBSS, each corner independently, pancake, and see-saw. I believe the air line and valves are 1/2" as the truck raises and drops really fast. There are 3 air gauges in the a pillar on the drivers side for tank pressure and each bags pressure. The bad stuff is there are a couple dents, one on the passenger side of the bed above the wheel well and the passenger side of the tailgate is smashed in. The bed corners and edges of the roll pan in the back have a little cracked paint from the bed hitting the ground when dropping the truck. The gas gauge doesn't work because of the aftermarket fuel cell so I just use the trip meter when I fill up. The truck gets about 24 mpg. There is no emergency brake as the previous owner removed it because it hung below the frame and prevented the truck from laying completely. He also deleted the ABS module because it was located on the fender liner which needed to be cut in order to allow the tires to raise high enough to lay frame in the front. Other than that the truck runs and drives well. I just did a tune up (plugs and wires) and an oil change with Mobil 1 High Mileage synthetic as well as replaced the starter. The clutch grips well and the transmission shifts as it should, although the Hurst shifter is very tight and has a short throw so it takes some getting used to. The truck is overall a great summer toy and will get lots of attention wherever it goes. It's a blast to drive and with a little love it could be in perfect condition or just drive it as is and have fun.

2016 Chevy Colorado grabs Motor Trend Truck of the Year award

Tue, Nov 17 2015

It's not an easy feat to win Motor Trend Truck of the Year twice in a row, but the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado managed to do just that. Thanks to the introduction of the 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder diesel, the magazine decided to bring the pickup back to defend the title. In more good news for the Bowtie brand, the 2016 Camaro earned the magazine's Car of the Year award. The Colorado beat a tough group of finalists to earn the nod this year, including its GMC Canyon sibling. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra also made this year's list. The Nissan Titan XD and latest Toyota Tacoma rounded out the challengers. A model had to shine in six criteria to earn the title: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. Like it did with the Camaro, Motor Trend posted a story online that explained the rationale for picking the Colorado again. They praised the diesel profusely and lauded the whole platform as quite a capable hauler. This year's Motor Trend SUV of the Year honor went to the Volvo XC90. The Swedish 'ute had to win against an initial group of 16 candidates that the magazine eventually whittled down to finalists that consisted of the Honda Pilot, Lincoln MKX, the combined Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class and GLE Coupe, and Nissan Murano. "Seven-passenger people movers aren't supposed to drive like this," senior features editor Jonny Lieberman said about the Volvo in the announcement of the champions. The Honda CR-V won last year. In the explanation online, the judges applauded the XC90's new modular platform, and they loved both the T6 twin-charged engine and T8 hybrid version. The SUV's key enamored the writers, too.

EcoCar2 is on the hunt for a better, cleaner Chevy Malibu [w/video]

Thu, Jun 12 2014

The students spent three years transforming an ordinary Chevy Malibu into a revolutionary vehicle. Not far from the building where General Motors once invented the Chevy Volt, a dozen or so college students are standing on the blacktop alongside a test track, watching a professional driver push the limits of a plug-in hybrid car they've built that's far more radical. These students, from Colorado State University, have spent the past three years transforming an ordinary Chevy Malibu into a revolutionary vehicle. At first glance, it still looks like a regular sedan. But under the hood, they've installed a hybrid powertrain that contains both hydrogen and electric power sources. Even by the standards of the Department of Energy competition they're participating in, it's an outlier. That's exactly what they had in mind. "We didn't want to come here and tell them how to build a better Volt," said Tom Bradley, faculty adviser for the Colorado State team. "They already know how to do that. We can tell them how to think about these possibilities in a whole new way." After three years of work, it all comes down to this. The Colorado State team was one of 15 that came to GM's Milford Proving Grounds last week for the final stretch of the EcoCar2 competition, which challenges regular college students who have no automotive experience to do nothing less than reinvent the American car. The teams have come from across North America, and include schools like Ohio State and Virginia Tech that have a long history of participating in similar competitions, and schools like the University of Washington and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University that are here for the first time. After three years of work, it all comes down to this. The teams have operated 24 hours a day for almost two weeks here at the Proving Grounds, running a gamut of tests that include a 310-point safety inspection, emissions and energy-consumption tests and road tests, in which professional GM drivers ensure they're road worthy. The winning team will be announced tonight in Washington D.C. Revolutionary cars, ordinary package While other green-car competitions encourage extreme designs, this one comes with a somewhat constraining twist: Yes, students must improve fuel economy and reduce emissions, but in the end, they still have to have a car that would appeal to mainstream customers. In practical terms, that means they must keep conveniences like air conditioning and trunk space.

Best 3rd row SUVs of 2022

Wed, Oct 19 2022

If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices.  OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must.   In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover |  Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV |  Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.
