I have owned this truck for about 5 years. This truck is extremely slick, with the only real damage being a small dent, about the size of a golf ball, below the passenger's side brake light, which I have photographed. there is some paint bubble and surface rust near the rear of the wheel wells, but it is not soft or rusted through. Again, bodywise, this truck is as straight as you'll find anywhere. The Interior isn't bad, with a newer seat covering, and newer carpet. The seat has one small tear on the driver's side, pictured. The door panels could use some fresh paint. The dash is cracked, but solid. A good cover would do wonders for the dash. I put a JVC Tape deck in the truck, and the dash hasn't been cut at all for a CD player, so you can put an original radio in it if you'd like. Mechanically, the 4 wheel drive works great. The engine smokes a little bit on initial startup. Being a 305, it is weak. It also uses a little oil. The transmission seems good. It feels like it could use a fluid service, and change of filter, because when it's cold, it will sometimes shift funny, but when it warms, it shifts perfectly. I just put new dual exhaust on it about a year ago. Tires are good. The AC has a leak. It works when it's charged, but leaks off. I replaced the water pump and the fan clutch a couple of years ago. The only other thing that needs attention is the steering sector needs repair. The steering turns sharper to the right than it does the left. I had it looked at, and they said that the worm gears were worn in the steering sector, and could used replaced. The steering column is also loose. I don't know if it can be tightened, or needs replaced. There is also a crack in the front windshield. The auto door locks sometimes stick in the locked position, so I don't lock the doors. It may be that it just needs lithium grease to cure the problem, but I have just never bothered with removing the panels to try it. One side of the tailgate latch came undone in the handle, so you have to release one side with a screwdriver. This is also an easy fix, I just haven't bothered with it. The truck needs a few little things, but all in all, it is a great looking vehicle. I am pricing the vehicle fairly, so that you can buy it, and fix it, and have a great truck for not much money. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
