I am selling my 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe LT. it has the 5.3 vortec engine with 217xxx miles, all highway miles and with these engines, that many miles is nothing, especially highway. I have researched online and these trucks will last for well over 300k if properly maintained. I am the 2nd owner, the previous owner took excellent care of it: full synthetic oil whenever the computer said it was time to change and it has had full synthetic for its whole life, and maintenance and/or part replacements as needed. I have also taken great care of the car with always Mobil 1 full synthetic and ran 91 octane gas. Like I said, the car runs like a dream. Even with the high mileage it is as tight as a drum. When I got it tuned by blackbear, the tuner said he was amazed that the engine was running that close to brand new. The truck has all leather, heated, power seats. All power windows and locks. Cruise control. AC works great, ice cold! The tires (Yokohama Geolandar) have a lot of life left on them as well, around 25k miles before they need to be replaced. I just replaced both the front and rear brake pads with ceramic pads, the truck stops on a dime! There is also a spare wheel that comes with the truck.

The truck has some performance parts on it: K&N intake kit, LPP Sainless Steel Headers with Off Road Y-Pipe, Stainless Steel Magnaflow Exhaust, Corvette Servo for quick shifts and longer transmission life, electric fans for better cooling and more mpg, performance tuned by BlackBear Performance for better drivability, Eibach Anti-sway Bars for better handling and more stable ride. I have also installed black halo headlights, altezza tail lights and a black grille. I have also blacked out the bumpers, side molding and rims with plasti-dip, so if you don't like the black look, it peels off like a sticker, and the chrome is still in great shape underneath. I also have a Pioneer head unit and Pioneer speakers with the stock amp and subwoofer. All the parts were installed by a professional mechanic. I also have some of the stock parts that come with the truck. This truck is a great cruiser and has LOTS of power when you need it! Ready to be lowered or lifted!

All the performance mods have given some added mpg. The truck gets around 15 city and 19-20 freeway, which is 2-3 mpg more than stock. Plus with the added low end torque, you can drive the truck at less than 2000rpm to save gas and still be faster than others when the light turns green. The only thing the truck needs is an alignment. The wheels and tires are straight as an arrow, but the steering wheel is off center, and my mechanic said an alignment will fix that.  I am selling the car in "As Is" condition.

Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers

Sun, Mar 29 2015

As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.

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.

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
