This 1986 Chevrolet Suburban with the Silverado package has an equalizing trailer hitch and extra-heavy suspension for towing a heavy trailer.  


The vehicle is in good running condition and has near-new tires.  It was overhauled by the local dealership last year, and has no serious mechanical problems.  The hauling capabilities of this machine are awesome!  We've used it to move everything from huge loaded haywagons to a very heavy 26 foot vintage travel trailer - with the cargo area loaded, 6 people on board, and a canoe strapped to the roof - with excellent results.  The non-slip differential makes it great for muddy/snowy conditions.

As one should expect on a vehicle of this age, there is some deterioration and minor niggling faults; but nothing that really restricts the usefulness of the vehicle.  There is some hesitation and tendency to stall, reflecting the need for carb work - something the dealer (who obviously only uses Chevy-supplied parts) couldn't address.  There has been some body work on the lower fenders/rocker panels, needed to pass PA inspection.  The finish on the roof is peeling, and shows some surface rust through the primer we used last season.  The driver's seat back has worn thin, there's a couple of tears in the headliner,  and the passenger door lock sometimes has to be opened manually.

Routine gas mileage isn't as bad as one might expect; 12 mpg seems to be about the norm.  It's got a big gas tank, which does negate the need for frequent refilling.  The engine performs far cleaner - and better - if one uses a higher grade in the tank.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years

Fri, Feb 21 2014

Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.
