Up for auction is this 1998 Chevrolet truck. I don't need it anymore as I have another vehicle. Truck has 232k miles on the body, and from the previous owner it has 63k miles on the purchased new from the factory 5.7L motor, as well as 63k miles on the crate transmission. Runs great, starts nice and easy every time.
Mild modifications; New Magnaflow cat-less exhaust ( Check engine light is on due to there being no cats. I've had it scanned on a computer several times to verify. ) ran from the headers back a couple months ago. K&N air intake, lowered several inches with real shocks, no haggard set up with lowering blocks. Has Power Steering/Power Windows/Power Locks, heat and A/C, though A/C needs to be recharged. Haven't bothered recharging it myself because because I like the windows down.
It has the third door, but I cannot get it to open anymore. Window tint all the way around, no bubbling or peeling. Recently had 2 new Sony Xplode speakers installed in each door. Everything works as it should (besides A/C). Interior is in decent condition. Headliner is falling slightly in a couple places, nothing annoying or major. Seats are clean, no rips or cuts. Typical age from getting in and out shows.
Exterior is okay. Tail gate is functional, but has a dent in the lower right corner from previous owner. Driver side passenger door has a slightly long L shaped crack in the paint, but it doesn't effect the overall integrity. Driver side rear quarter panel above the tire has a dent, but it's not major and could be easily fixed. Body is basically in "truck" condition, but a little better. Vehicle has been smoked in. Few scratches here and there, could use a buffing. But overall still a good looking truck.
New tires all the way around, a little over 1,000 miles. New brake rotors and pads installed recently. In the time that I've owned it, I've maintained it well as I do with all my vehicles. Oil changed a little over 1,000 miles ago, coolant flushed and replaced. I had the tires balanced and rotated a few months ago and at that time I asked my mechanic to examine it for any issues he may see. The only thing he came across was the driver side ball joint being a little loose. He said it wasn't major, and I haven't had the time or extra money to repair something that isn't major. I personally have driven the truck over 1,000 miles after I was notified and haven't had any odd issues. This is a very reliable and solid truck, and if I didn't need the money I would keep it and drive it for another 10 years.
If you cannot pick up locally, having it shipped is solely the buyers responsibility. Truck is sold as is.

2016 Chevy Volt sneak peek at CES
Mon, Jan 5 2015Here it is, folks – your first real glimpse at the 2016 Chevrolet Volt. The gasoline-electric sedan will officially debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week, but Chevy gave us a sneak peek of its redesigned Volt at a media event in Las Vegas late Sunday, as part of its CES festivities. There isn't a ton to see here, and sorry about the low quality video (and for us not standing front and center during the reveal). But we can clearly see the car's redesigned front fascia – something recently previewed at a fan event in Los Angeles. For another view, check out a high-res photo of the new Volt from our friends at The Verge, here. Chevy even tweeted a photo of the Volt's new nose on its official Volt Twitter account, which you can see below. The automaker didn't divulge any details about its new Volt, but we already know quite a bit. For starters, the Volt will use a new, 1.5-liter gasoline engine and won't require premium fuel. It'll have more EV range and a bigger battery, too. We'll have a whole mess of information when the 2016 Volt is fully revealed in Detroit in about one week's time. In the meantime, here are some more looks at the Volt, courtesy of the Twitterverse. We're so excited about #NextGenVolt we brought it out early at #CES2015! Full details on 1/12 at #NAIAS. pic.twitter.com/hPCbTFGSV4 - Chevrolet Volt (@ChevyVolt) January 5, 2015 Take a look at the new Chevy Volt http://t.co/laCvWLRMXk pic.twitter.com/uOzRh5XCrP - Engadget (@engadget) January 5, 2015 The very first look at the 2016 Chevy Volt doesn't disappoint: http://t.co/PM0HcnyQOo pic.twitter.com/WFtoyd0utH - Gizmodo (@Gizmodo) January 5, 2015 Chevy just gave @Tim_Stevens a very quick look at the next-gen Volt at #CES2015. #CNETatCES http://t.co/3n6EK1yOrC pic.twitter.com/7KDYh0VSg0 - CNET (@CNET) January 5, 2015 Related Gallery 2016 Chevy Volt at CES Related Gallery 2016 Chevrolet Volt Teaser Images Green CES Detroit Auto Show Chevrolet GM Alternative Fuels Green Automakers Electric Hybrid Videos Sedan 2015 Detroit Auto Show CES 2015
Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015
Thu, Jan 14 2016According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.
