RARE RICOCHET SILVER MODERN STREET ROD!! 1 0F 1202 PRODUCED IN THE U.S IN THIS COLOR IN 2005 AND EVEN MORE RARE WITH THE 6-SPEED!! THIS SSR IS IN NEAR FLAWLESS CONDITION AND HAS UNDER 9250 MILES!!!

FUTURE COLLECTIBLE THAT YOU CAN DRIVE AND ENJOY NOW!!

If you are like me you are looking at this auction because you are a true Car Enthusiast and it is hard to ignore the appeal of these Chevy SSR’s. I find that the typical owner of an SSR is someone who currently owns, or has previously owned several classic, muscle, or exotic cars in their lifetime and would like a modern driving Hot Rod that still catches all the eyes on the road,shows or cruise-ins and is a blast to drive. This is the 10th SSR we have had and there is no doubt that the 2005 and 2006 models have proven to be more desirable then the 2003-2004's. The neck-snapping increase in Horsepower from the Gen IV 6.0L LS2 V-8 coupled with the optional Tremec 6-speed manual gearbox turns this cool looking Roadster Truck in to a serious road machine! I will go out on a limb and say that in my opinion the 2005 SSR is basically a Corvette on steroids. Best of all, this is sure to be one of the future Collectibles of its time and will hold its value and most likely appreciate for years to come.

WE KNOW THIS SSR QUITE WELL AS WE SOLD IT JUST 1 YEAR AGO TO A GREAT GUY IN KENTUCKY WHO UNFORTUNATELY HAD SOME HEALTH ISSUES THAT HAVE PREVENTED HIM FROM ENJOYING IT LIKE HE THOUGHT HE WOULD BE. AS A RESULT HE PUT LESS THEN 400 MILES ON IT DURING HIS YEAR OF OWNERSHIP. HE CONTACTED ME TO SE IF I WAS INTERESTED IN BUYING IT BACK AND OF COURSE I WAS MORE THEN HAPPY TO!! IT IS IN EXACTLY THE SAME CONDITION AS WHEN WE TRANSPORTED IT TO HIM A YEAR AGO WHICH MEANS IT IS NEAR FLAWLESS!! THE DESCRIPTION BELOW IS FROM WHEN I SOLD IT TO HIM A YEAR AGO AS NOTHING HAS CHANGED OTHER THEN THE MILEAGE.

Prior to a year ago when we sold this SSR to a gentleman in Kentucky, this Ricochet Silver, 6-speed was owned by a wealthy car enthusiast in the Dallas, TX area who passed away. This modern hot rod is in amazing, near flawless condition!! I have included a number of pictures to show you the great design and condition of this SSR and a short video follows the pictures so you can hear its throaty stock rumble. A total of 1202 SSR's were produced in this color in 2005 and I am guessing that this is probably 1 of about 500 in this color built with the 6-speed and the options this one has. Those of you who are in to classic and collectible cars know what this will mean in 15 years or so for this SSR’s value. Sit back and enjoy….and most importantly picture yourself in this SSR…believe me you will love it! ( there are quite a few pics so please allow them to load...it is worth the wait!)

As you will see in the pictures that follow the body on this Ricochet Silver Beauty is close to flawless. This SSR has never been in any type of accident and the paint and body are basically like new. This particular one has the optional integrated running boards that really enhance the look of the truck. I have not detected any flaws in the body but just to play it safe I will call it near flawless as there is probably an extremely tiny rock chip or two I may have missed. It truly looks like it just came off the showroom floor!! Ultra Silver painted wheels compliment the Silver paint and running boards and other trim.I have noticed stickers on almost every body panel that say DNA Trace System Invisible Vehicle Security. I believe this is an added security in case this SSR is ever stolen that will enable it to be traced back to the owner with some VIN etchings that I have not yet looked for.The only flaw I really noticed was a couple of tiny scrapes on 2 of the wheels. Great stance from the 20'' rears and 19'' fronts and with under 9250 miles on this SSR the tires are close to new with tons of meat on them. The hardtop convertible feature on this truck is really amazing. With just the push of a button and a matter of seconds the Hardtop retracts in to a small compartment behind the seats and you are now basically driving an open air roadster….HOW COOL!! Lets not forget this SSR is also a truck. Ok, lets be truthful for a second. The truck cargo compartment has the upgraded carpeting with wood trim and is more like a very oversized trunk space. It will haul plenty of cargo but this is a modern street rod and not a truck you make to Home Depot for lumber and mulch. As you will see this truck is in near perfect condition just as you would expect from one with such low mileage. Here is a walk around tour of the body:

While the SSR definitely has some of the flare of the 50's styles Street Rod Pick up trucks, if I had to vote I would say drop the top on this SSR at every chance you get. So lets drop the top and take a look inside. The Ebony leather interior is in fantastic condition and is extremely comfortable for driver and passenger. Practically no wear on the drivers side seat and it looks like the passnger seat was barely sat in. Interior is nicely equipped with safety and comfort features. For safety you have side impact airbags in addition to the drivers and passengers front airbags. Power heated seats for driver and passenger, memory power seats, upgraded Bose Premium sound with in-dash 6 cd player, electrochromatic rearview mirror with homelink, power everything, ice cold a/c, cruise control, steering wheel radio controls, and so much more!! The interior is very neatly laid out and there are several convenient cup holders as well. Custom SSR floor mats finish off the look. This one also has the optional gauge package in the console giving you outside temperature and other vitals. I have the original owners manuals and the original cd that walks you through the vehicle and tells you how to personalize all the settings. Come check it out:

NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO REMIND YOU THAT THIS SSR HAS UNDER 9250 MILES!!!!

Aside from the awesome, jaw-dropping color and great looks this 2005 SSR is a power house and extremely fun to drive thanks to the 390 horsepower LS2 Corvette Motor and the Tremec 6-speed manual transmission this one is equipped with. As I mentioned earlier I have driven a 2004 SSR and the difference in performance is truly like day and night. The 4760 lb 2005 SSR will blast to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds and through the quarter mile in 13.8 seconds, more then 2 seconds faster than the ’03-’04 models The steering system in the 2005 SSR was revised for smoother operation and easier handling at low speeds. The sound of the LS2 V8 at high revs is intoxicating and the dual exhaust maintains a nice throaty sound at idle. Front and rear stabilizer bars, tuned shocks, 4 wheel anti-lock brakes, and some meaty Goodyear Rubber on all four corners makes for some great times on the highway and local roads. This is truly an amazing driving experience in a Roadster Truck that is one of a kind!

HERE IS A SHORT VIDEO SO YOU CAN HEAR THIS SSR START UP AND RUNNING:

Keep in mind this video was done when the car had 8800 miles on it but of course this SSR Sounds exactly the same now!!!

Chevy Bolt wins 2017 Green Car of the Year

Thu, Nov 17 2016

We knew that a plug-in vehicle was going to win the 2017 Green Car of the Year award this year, given that all five finalists have a way to charge up. And when Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, announced the winner – the 2017 Chevy Bolt EV Â– he said that the car itself represents one of those times in the auto industry when everything is about to change. Similar to the invention of the starter motor, things are about to get different. For now, though, the fact that the Bolt EV won an award sounds like the same old thing all over again. Just this week, it was named Motor Trends Car of the Year and to the Car And Driver Top 10 list. The other four finalists for Green Car of the Year included the Toyota Prius Prime, the Chrysler Pacifica, the Kia Optima (including hybrid and plug-in hybrid models) and the BMW 330e iPerformance. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt. Did Green Car Journal make the right selection this year? See the award ceremony below.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt's new, improved powertrain; Inabikari wants to build Tesla Model X fighter

Thu, Nov 6 2014

We knew the 2016 Chevrolet Volt's new powertrain would provide more range, but we didn't know how much. According to GM's Executive Director Larry Nitz, it is about 12 percent more, overall. "I can't think of a powertrain we've re-engineered more extensively within a five-year period than this one," he said. The battery, electric drive system and gasoline generator have all been reworked to allow for an overall driving range of up to 425 miles, with electric range speculated to reach 42 miles or more. The new Volt will also benefit from 20 percent quicker low-end acceleration, weight reductions and improvements in NVH. Read more at Hybrid Cars and at the SAE website. Hyundai's FCEV research and development boss, Dr. Sae-Hoon Kim, is optimistic about the future of hydrogen mobility in Japan. With the Tucson Fuel Cell already in production ahead of Toyota's FCV, Hyundai has a foothold in the hydrogen car scene. Kim believes that since the Fukushima disaster, Japan's attitudes toward energy make it friendly to a growing hydrogen economy. He also says that hydrogen won't be limited to Hyundai, with Kia getting all the battery EVs. "Both types are for both companies," Kim says. "For the moment, volumes are small and it is not wise to have Hyundai and Kia competing." Read more at Just Auto. The Latvian/German startup Inabikari is using crowdfunding to build an electric crossover for Europe. The Rev.01 EV hopes to compete with Tesla's upcoming Model X with a range of over 400 miles and a five-second 0-60 time. The group currently is trying to raise initial funds through an Indiegogo campaign, with hopes of more investment in the future and sales beginning in 2017. See the video below, and read more at Hybrid Cars and at the Inabikari website. Fuel economy and emissions regulations could lead to some interesting design changes to automobiles. The World Light Duty Test Procedure, set to replace the New European Driving Cycle in 2017, will push automakers to find new ways to reduce drag on their vehicles. For better aerodynamics, we could see traditional side-view mirrors replaced by cameras that display what they see on screens inside the vehicle. Another likely change will be the introduction of smaller, narrower wheels. Improving the average drag coefficient from 0.32 to 0.20 could reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 20 percent.
