This is a great truck, I fixed it up for keeps, but realize that I need something more heavy duty for my ranch.

The good:
I put in a set of great BF Goodrich mud terrain tires, which still have plenty of life on them, along with 18"
premium wheels, the truck only has 8552 miles!  Also, I added a great sound system, which includes 4
db Drive Speed series speakers professionally installed in the doors, along with an excellent sub-woofer
of the same series in a custom box under the driver side back seat and also two amplifiers of the same brand, 
each professionally installed under the two front seats.  To go with this system I had a second battery installed 
just for it.  It was set-up so that if you are playing the sound system with the truck of it would only use
this second battery, and not affect the first battery, which is only for the regular use of the truck.  Both
batteries are the Optima blue tops, and are charged with the same alternator.  Also, I had the bed sprayed
with a nice thick layer of Linex bedliner, both on the top and under - around the tire area, and under the doors,
just for additional protection against rust and or body damage.  I also had a Ranch Hand Mini Job toolbox with 
tool holder sprayed with Linex all around installed in the bed.  It is very low profile so that it is not seen from 
behind, yet it has plenty of space and an excellent placement of the lock that prevents anyone from breaking
into it. The front of the truck was also lifted 2.5 inches to match the back and give it a better look.   Also,
I had a couple of 3 step Nerf Step Bars sprayed with Linex and installed to aid with access to the bed
as well as to the cab, because of the lift and the extra height from the tires.  Finally, I had the K&N High 
Performance Air Intake Kit and filter.  Besides, providing more air for the engine and improving its performance,
it gives it a nice purrr every time you push the pedal.

The bad:
I bought the truck with some light damage in the front corner end of the passenger side, had it all repaired with
original factory parts.  The only thing that I did not have installed is the side curtain airbags, so this light sensor
is on.  This truck was planned to be for keeps, so I didn't install this since it already has the two front airbags.  Also,
I did not realized its limited loading and towing capacities and I need something to tow around cattle to and from
my ranch.  i has a little dent under the passenger side rear bumper, not really noticeable, and another really really light
one on the front drivers side white corner panel.  I am selling this truck as is where is.

The truck is currently being used, so mileage may be a bit over what is listed, but not much.

General Motors Recall List

Wed, Oct 22 2014

It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. We used the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall list to compile a snapshot of all the GM vehicles recalled in the last two months. NHTSA also provides a search engine that allows owners to search for recalls on their vehicle. An automotive company must do everything in their power to notify its customers when a recall is issued on a vehicle. If you own any of the following vehicles and you have questions regarding your car, you can contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339. Or check out General Motor's recall site. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.safercar.gov. Here's a brief summery of the other vehicles currently under recall: July 26 – 414,333 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V447000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. Problem: In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position. Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Solution: Dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. July 14 – 16,939 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V341000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured October 18, 2010, to June 2, 2011. Problem: In the affected vehicles, vibrations from the drive shaft may cause the vehicle's roll over sensor to command the roof rail air bags to deploy. Consequence: If the roof rail air bags deploy unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of crash and injury to the occupants.

eBay Find of the Day: Mario Andretti's personal 2009 Corvette ZR1

Wed, Jan 7 2015

With victory in the the Indianapolis 500, a Formula 1 World Championship, a win in the Daytona 500 and too many other motorsports accomplishments to list, Mario Andretti stands among not just the greatest American racing drivers of all time, but the greatest drivers, full stop. Apparently, the champ is also a fan of speed when not on the track, because now there's a chance to own what is said tobe his personal 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 12,872 miles on the clock. The eBay Motors auction page clearly shows Mario Andretti standing with the car, but the rest of the ad is admittedly short on details. The vehicle history report lists only one previous owner – ostensibly Andretti. The exterior is a handsome Blade Silver Metallic accompanied by a Dark Titanium leather interior. However, the seller keeps additional information to a minimum as well with the description simply stating, "This 2009 Chevy Corvette ZR1 is owned by Mario Andretti and has been garage kept all its life. It is fully loaded with all option on this car." The future buyer will get a seriously great car along with some huge bragging rights at any party by touting its ownership history. We've reached out to the seller for more particulars and provenance, and will update this story if we hear back. In the meantime, the auction for this C6 ends on Thursday, January 8, and currently the reserve isn't met. The price sits at a hefty $68,100 as of this writing, with six bids registered.

2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette wastes no time zooming into Jay Leno's Garage

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Where else would you expect the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to show up first? Although this time it isn't exactly in Jay Leno's Garage, Leno instead playing an away game at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nor does Leno drive the car, instead taking an 11-minute walkaround of the new American sports car with General Motors design head Ed Welburn, the same man who recently brought by a string of classic Corvettes to the talk show host's California compound.
It is, admittedly, a love-fest for the American sports car now featuring 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, but one that also features admissions about previous Corvette seats like "they were kinda rough," and the explanation that labeling the coupe "Stingray" means not having to call it "the base Corvette." On top of that, Welburn also explains the proper application of the term "dashboard." You can watch it all in the video below.
