Vehicle Description

Hello and thank you for looking at my auction.  Buying your next vehicle through a NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase.  I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives.  Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic.  Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability.  Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid.  An administrative fee of $249 will be added to the final bid of each auction.

Up for a NO RESERVE auction today is a very clean 1996 Chevrolet Suburban LS 4x4.  Suburbans are fantastic vehicles.  I usually have at least one around.  When you need to carry a lot of people or need to move a lot of stuff without having to worry about sun, win or rain...there is no substitute for a Suburban.  Loads of SUV's have third row seats recently...but have you seen them?  How can anyone comfortably fit back there?  And with the third row up in most SUV's, you're left with absolutely no cargo room.  You shouldn't have to choose between people OR stuff.  I would rate the exterior of this Chevy Suburban to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle.  As you can see, this Suburban shows very well.  It is finished in dark green and shines like glass.  The worst I can say about the exterior is the paint repair on the nose of the hood.  The fenders, rockers and doors all look great which is hard to find on an older Suburban.  The chrome bumpers and trim look great.  All of the glass and lenses are intact.  The alloy wheels look good and are wrapped in a nice set of rubber with decent tread all around.  Please take your time and look at each photo and read the entire description.

 I would rate the interior of this Suburban to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle.  The door panels are clean and tight.  The carpets show well and are thick/full looking throughout the interior.  The cloth seats show very well and are comfortable.   The cargo area is accessed via to barn doors at the back which are preferred for easy loading and unloading.  The stereo is original and sounds good.  The climate control system appears to be working properly.  There is also rear heat and a/c to keep the entire cabin comfortable.  The air conditioner will need to be charged or serviced as it does not blow cold air.  The power windows and locks work properly.  Nothing really bad to report...just some usual old car stuff.

 I gave a good shampoo to the carpets and seats, purchase car mats for front and rear and hand waxed the whole exterior. Changed the oil, filter and air filter. Replaced 4WD electronic module ($400.00)

Mechanically, this Suburban appears to be in good running and driving condition.  The 5.7L V8 engine starts easily and runs smoothly.  I did not see any leaks and the engine does not smoke.  The suspension feels nice and tight.  The steering feels neutral and responsive.  The brakes stop this big SUV with no issues.  Her road manners are excellent.  The engine keeps perfect temperature and excellent oil pressure at all times.  She makes good power and accelerates easily.  The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts properly with no issues.  The push button 4WD system is tested and working properly.  Out on the highway, she cruises nice with no complaints.  If you've been looking for a clean Suburban, take a good look at this one.  They're getting hard to find with good miles and in good condition.  Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

About Us

We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with NO RESERVE auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We get a lot of interesting, unique vehicles and many that have minor flaws. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection and describe what we see and feel to you in our descriptions. We try to provide as thorough and accurate a description as possible as well as including 20-25 photos. Understand however, that we are not professional mechanics and cannot predict the future.

There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced and has a warranty. You will pay considerably less this way, but understand our vehicles are sold AS-IS and do not carry any sort of warranty.

We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies, or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message.

1 in 7 Americans say they might buy an EV next, as sales of electrics surge

Wed, Apr 26 2017

About one in seven driving Americans may likely purchase an electric vehicle as their next car, according to an AAA poll, meaning that as many as 30 million Americans may pony up for an EV within the next three to five years. While some of the motivation is environmental, survey recipients say that lower maintenance expenses and solo access to high-occupancy-vehicle lanes are also among the factors behind potentially going electric. Take a look at the AAA press release on the study here. The poll indicates that about as many people are planning to buy an EV for their next car as are looking to buy a pickup, which is impressive given that the best-selling US vehicle is the Ford F-150. And things should only improve, as about 20 percent of millennials polled said that their next car would probably be an EV. The results are all the more encouraging, at least among green-car advocates, because gas prices have fallen about 40 percent within the past five years, meaning that there's less of an incentive to go electric from a purely economic perspective. Through the first quarter of this year, US plug-in vehicle sales were up about 63 percent from a year earlier to about 39,000 vehicles. Meanwhile, when it came to AAA's annual green-vehicle awards for this year, Tesla's Model S and Model X took the large car and SUV categories, respectively, while the Chevrolet Bolt and Volkswagen e-Golf were listed atop the subcompact and compact lists. The Lexus GS 450h hybrid and the Ford F-150 took home AAA's best green vehicle in the midsize and pickup truck categories. Related Video:

NHTSA closes 4-year GM investigation, issues common sense advisory [w/video]

Thu, Apr 9 2015

Since January 2011, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been investigating a possible problem with corroding brake lines in General Motors' GMT800-platform models, like the Chevrolet Silverado and Suburban and GMC Sierra, in states with salt on their roads in the winter. However, as opposed to launching a full recall of millions of vehicles, the government is issuing a common-sense safety advisory to all drivers in snowy states to keep their vehicle's undercarriage clean. It even has a video explaining things. "Older-model vehicles, often driven in harsh conditions, are subject to corrosion over long periods of time, and we need owners to be vigilant about ensuring they, their passengers, and others on the roads are safe," said NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind in the announcement of the end of the investigation. The agency was clear in its report that "brake line corrosion seen in the GM vehicles was not unique," and the government "has not identified a defect that would initiate a recall order." Instead NHTSA is advising drivers, especially those of vehicles from before 2007, to wash their vehicle's undercarriage in the winter and spring to remove salt or other de-icing chemicals. It also recommends regular checks by a mechanic to make sure everything is in proper order. According to the investigation documents, for just the GMT800 platform models, NHTSA found 3,645 complaints of brake line corrosion, which included allegations of 107 crashes and 40 injuries. The issue was found to be more common in vehicles over 10 years old. GM has released a statement (embedded below) that the company "supports the consumer advisory from NHTSA urging regular maintenance and care of brake lines on older vehicles." NHTSA Closes Investigation into Brake-Line Failures NHTSA 13-15 Thursday, April 9, 2015 Agency issues safety advisory on preventing undercarriage corrosion WASHINGTON – The Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today issued a Safety Advisory and consumer video encouraging owners of model year 2007 and older trucks, SUVs and passenger cars to inspect brake lines and thoroughly wash the underside of their vehicles to remove corrosive salt after the long winter in order to prevent brake-line failures that increase the risk of a crash.

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.
