This is all and everything for this truck. I never intended on selling her, but I need to pull the trigger for my kids sake. Kelly Blue Book is 9,500.00 without extras.
1) Rear bumper needs work, bad rust(see pictures)
2) Body may have a little rust, but nothing really showing. 
3) Underneath the truck, see the pictures. It has normal wear/tear/rust. Nothing bad.
4) Front bumper has the start of rust by plate mounts.
5) Needs new speedometer sensor.
6) Needs new front window.
7) Small tears in seating on the sides. Nothing big. Never smoked in.
8) Transmission has failed. Stuck in first. Can be driven on to a tow truck/trailer.
9) Rear shocks (2 shocks) should be replaced in the next year or so. The big cost was the front, and I just did them 3 months ago. (6 shocks) (1500)
10) I let the truck sit a few years back, rain over time cause a weak point in the frame. I had it repaired right so it wont be a issue in the future but I feel I have to mention it. Buyers can have copy of invoice if wanted, 3500.00. Cant tell in images it was ever touched.

Now, This is what spec's I have for this truck.
1) 2003 silverado 1500, V8, 4.8L with 87,500 miles on it. No motor work ever done. Besides maintenance...oil..ect.
2) Added pics of a car fax, to show this vehicle was never in a accident. The carfax doesn't show the frame repair listed above, not sure why...but the frame won't be a issue.
3) Feel free to run anything on it, this is the VIN # : 1GCEK19V23E242929.
4) Lifted in 2006 with a 6" front, and 5" rear suspension lift. Pro Comp Kit. With Variable MX6 Shocks. 6 up front & 2 in the rear.
5) 17" American Rims. Black Teflon. 8 Hole pattern. One center piece missing. 
6) Goodyear MT/R LT305/70R with at least 1/2 tread left. 35" swing roughly.
7) 4x4 on floor.
8) Anti-lock brakes still have 60% plus left.
9) Interior Floor is similar to a Jeep, No carpet. Done by Chevy, its a rubber/pastic composite I believe. Good shape.
10) Audio Bahn 10" speakers in a custom fit to truck box. I slid the box out to show in the pictures. Audio Bahn amp, all ran to a Sony CD in dash player.
11)Rhino Lining in bed. was done in 2004, and bed is in great shape. 
12) MX6 Variable shocks, 3 per wheel up front. New just a few months back. (see pic's) (variable gas shock)
13) Reese tow Hitch, Tow package from Chevy originally. Reese added in 2007. "Tow Beast" Sadly, I never towed a thing with it.
14) Westin Black running steps. 
15) Dual A/C controls. Heat. 
16) Air bags are fine, it has a option in it to turn off or turn to auto for the passenger air bag.
17)  Anything I didn't list on here works fine. Motor good, interior good, radiator good, battery good, runs well, cant shift*, start fine, stereo system fine, 4x4 good...

I assume that someone who can replace the trans themselves would be interested. Otherwise looking at 3,000.00 to replace. It is a Allison 1000 I believe. I know its a Allison. Still if price is right, and it is. The truck has many years to go in it. With my new family members and work I am just throwing my towel in on it. Title, Manual, and 3 keys go with it. 

THANKS FOR LOOKING, HAPPY HUNTING

Leak reveals GM's 2017 heavy duty diesel trucks to get 910 lb-ft of torque [UPDATE]

Tue, Sep 27 2016

UPDATE: Chevrolet officially announced specs for the 2017 Silverado HD and the rumors were true. The truck's new Duramax 6.6-liter turbo-diesel V8 puts out 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. Chevrolet says the new motor produces 19 percent more torque and 12 percent more horsepower, while producing 35 percent fewer emissions. Overall, the new engine is a big improvement over the current motor, which generates 397 horsepower and 765 pound-feet of torque. According to Truck Trend, GM's newest heavy duty pickup trucks will pick up quite a bit more power and torque. The publication spotted a recent GM Powertrain ordering catalog that had the engine specs for the 2017 model year and managed to get some screenshots before the catalog was taken down, and they can be viewed here. The screenshots revealed that the 6.6-liter turbodiesel V8 powering the Silverado and Sierra heavy duty models will boast 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. This is a substantial gain over the current models' 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque, and as Truck Trend points out, it exceeds the Ford Super Duty line's horsepower output of 440, but comes short of the 925 lb-ft rating. Truck Trend credits part of this output gain to the new intake system GM will introduce on the 2017 heavy duties. The intake gets 60 percent of its air from a scoop on the hood, with the other 40 percent coming from behind one of the front fenders. GM doesn't reveal horsepower figures in the press release about the scoop, but it does say the cooler air helps with maintaining the engine's output, and that the scoop does produce a ram-air affect, providing more air at speed. As we know, more air plus more fuel equals more power, but there's likely more to the power increase in this engine than only the intake.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.

Looking back on our favorite cars of Mad Men

Tue, Apr 7 2015

The second half of the seventh and final season of Mad Men debuted this week, set to cap a run of public and critical acclaim. A decade's worth of interesting cars also made for good television, if you were paying attention. Vehicles didn't often steal the spotlight from Don, Betty, Roger, Joan and the gang, but they added meaningfully to the tone and beauty of the series. We sorted through the wheeled extras from Mad Men's archives, and choose some of our favorites to highlight. The list consists of cars that had at least a small impact on the plot of an episode, though certainly there are worthy gems hiding in just about every street and driving scene. Check out our subjective top five, and then let us know which of the Mad Men cars would be on your list. 1962 Cadillac Coupe DeVille – Season 2 Don Draper's Cadillac Coupe DeVille, all 500 feet of it, shows up in a few seasons of the show, but it's the first appearance that sets the tone. A Cadillac salesman, cut from the same cloth as Draper, asks what Don drives right now. "A Dodge," Don admits. "Those are wonderful if you want to get somewhere," allows the salesman, "this is for when you've already arrived." For a man on the move up corporate and social ladders that's a powerful message, and a pitch-perfect car. 1961 Lincoln Continental – Season 3 The most stylish Lincoln Continental ever is perfect set dressing for the mod show, of course. Though it's interesting that the car isn't cast as dapper Draper's ride, but rather his father-in-law's. Grandpa Gene does what all great grandfathers are bound to: lets his granddaughter Sally drive the big Lincoln while he works the pedals. Generational bond secured, in fine fashion. When you go back through the first three seasons of the show, you'll notice that Continentals show up more than once, too. There's nothing quite like them to evoke the best of the early '60s. 1963 John Deere 110 – Season 3 The only non-standard passenger vehicle on the list, no self-respecting gearhead/Mad Men fan should quibble with the inclusion of the John Deere 110 riding mower. For starters, the Deere is lovely to look at; a miniature version of the American Heartland icon in its green and yellow duds. The 110 appears as if milled from a solid block of steel, just the opposite of today's sleek, plasticky lawn minders (we're scouring Craigslist for one to bring home). The John Deere also has dear ramifications to the plot, too.
