I bought this truck new in April 2005. I have used it as a work truck in the heating and cooling field. Never overloaded but well used. There are a few things that will need to be addressed. The truck has dings, dents and scratches. I will try and show them when I take the pictures. The good things about the truck include the fact that I have been the only driver and have kept up the required maintenance to this point. I have not been so careful when it comes to the appearance. The truck runs and drives great. The four wheel drive works fine. As with most four wheel drive trucks, the front tires tend to be a little jerky when the steering wheel is turned sharply and in four wheel drive mode. I have replaced both batteries recently with good batteries from Wal Mart. They have the Wal Mart warranty. I have Big-O tires on the truck. They are worn down some but still have wear left on them. They have the Big-O warranty and include free rotation and balancing. Some of the negative things about this truck is that very recently the speedometer has been acting up. Sometimes working, sometimes not. The odometer continuously works fine. The driver side seat heater also works when it wants to but often chooses not to. I have had the brakes inspected periodically and think they are still in good shape with the exception of one of the front wheels applying more pressure than the other side. I was advised by a mechanic that it was probably a brake line not allowing the fluid to travel forward and backward properly for the anti locking brakes. I replaced both front brake lines and one rear. It still acts up. I don't know but it could be a caliper that needs to be replaced. That will have to be addressed by the new owner. So in bidding keep this fact in mind. I am trying to list everything that I can think of and be as honest as I can. I want no problems or issues after the sale. If you have specific questions, please ask and I will do my best to answer them. The driver seat entry side on the side is cracked. I do not believe this part of the seats are leather. It was the luxury model when I bought it new. Had just about everything available. It does not have the XM radio. It does have the phone and roadside service. I forget what it is called. It is not presently connected. It can be at the new owners discretion. The carpet has not been kept clean but has floor mats in place. The carpet will not be in the best of condition. The drivers side mirror is broken but useable. Also, the windshield is cracked. I have always used Amsoil oil and filters for oil changes. The fuel filters have mainly been purchased at the GM dealership and have been replaced as recommended by the manufacturer. The oil is high quality and is used for long intervals between changes. The truck has never failed to start even when one of the batteries was getting weak. I can't think of any other negative issues. As I have stated, the truck, to my knowledge, has no issues other than what I have listed. If I think of anything else I will add them later. So, in a few words, the truck runs and drives good, just doesn't look the greatest. Keep in mind when bidding that this is a 2005 model and may need some work done. None other than stated, to my knowledge. It will need to have the brakes checked, the speedometer and the seat heater, if you want, new tires in the future. So keep these potential expenses in mind when bidding. Allow for some possible other expenditures once you have the vehicle. Thank you for looking. The truck is sold as. No guarantees. No refunds. A $500.00 non refundable deposit is required at the end of the auction with the remainder due in cash when the vehicle is picked up. I do have a clear title. You are welcome to contact me and come see the vehicle in person. As you can see in the pictures, the truck is in need of a good cleaning. It'll probably cost you a couple hundred dollars for this, so keep it in mind when bidding.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Weekly Recap: The implications of strong new car sales

Sat, Jun 6 2015

New car sales are on a roll in the United States this year, and analysts are optimistic the industry will maintain its torrid pace. Sales increased 1.6 percent in May and reached an eye-popping seasonally-adjusted selling rate of 17.8 million, the strongest pace since July 2005, according TrueCar research. That positions the industry for one of its strongest years ever, as consumer confidence, low interest rates, low fuel costs, and an influx of new products propel gains. In addition to the positive economic factors, May also featured warmer weather across much of the US, an extra weekend, and it came on the heels of relatively weak April sales. Analysts suggest income tax refunds and the promise of summer driving and vacations also traditionally help May sales. "While 2015 will be one of the best years in the history of the US industry, in some ways it may be the very best ever," IHS Automotive analyst Tom Libby wrote in a commentary. "Not only are new vehicle registration volumes approaching the record levels of the early 2000s, but now registrations and production capacity are much more closely aligned so the industry is much more healthy." Capacity, an indicator of the auto sector's health, is also expected to grow. Morgan Stanley predicts it will eventually hit at least 20 million units per year, as many companies, including General Motors, Ford, Tesla, and Volvo are investing in new or upgraded factories. "The best predictor of US auto sales is the growth in capacity, and frankly, we're losing count of all of the additions – there's literally something new and big every week," Morgan Stanley said in a research note. Transaction prices, another telling indicator, also continue to show strength. They rose four percent in May to $32,452 per vehicle, and incentives dropped $10 per vehicle to $2,661, TrueCar said. "New vehicle sector and segment preference indicates consumers are confident about the economy and their finances," TrueCar president John Krafcik said in a statement. Still, Morgan Stanley noted the robust sales did little to immediately impact automaker stock prices and suggested it might be a prime time to sell if sales reach the 18-million pace. "Perhaps the biggest reason may be that investors have seen this movie before," the firm wrote.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
