This is the perfect 4x4 SUV for just about anything. It has the power to tow, the factory off road package, and room inside for 5 adults to sit comfortably. I bought this truck last June when I sold my pickup so I could tow my Waverunners and make the occasional trips to Home Depot. The truck served it function well, but I have decided to start a lawn care business on the side and will need another pickup, so the Tahoe must go. I bought this truck intended to fully restore it, and it is the perfect truck to do this with because of it being a Florida truck with none of the typical northern rust. I have done some of the work, which I will list below, but there is some remaining. I am offering this at No Reserve, so it should be a great deal, especially for those of you up north still requiring 4WD. I have Clear Title in hand.

Overall mechanical condition of the truck is good. Brand New Transfer Case Motor, 4WD Selector Switch, Idler and Pitman Steering Arms, A/C Belt Tensioner and Belt, and Transmission Flush. Additionally my mechanic replaced the rear main engine seal as it developed a slight oil leak. The truck now has no leaks. The only items identified by my mechanic to replace that have not been done are Front Struts, followed by an alignment and front tires. The truck currently pulls slightly right, and has worn out the front tires because of this. Additionally the rear wiper is not working. Other than that everything is in good mechanical condition.

Cosmetically the truck is clean, but still needs some TLC to be perfect. The good news is there is no rust on this truck aside from where the paint is missing on the rear bumper. The underside and engine bay are amazingly clean for a 12 year old truck. The exterior has some dents which are shown in the pictures, and it needs a paint job. The passenger side rear cap for the luggage rack is missing as well. The alloy wheels show some cracking in the clear coat (cosmetic only).

The interior restoration was begun by me. I replaced all the carpet with better than OEM material. The rear seats were replaced because of problems with the folding mechanism on the old ones. The new ones fold and stow as designed. The dash was completely removed and striped, and then repainted, so none of the typical peeling paint on the dash that is typical with these trucks. The front seats still need to be replaced (although the do operate properly) and some of the rear cargo trim. The headliner is beginning to sag as well. All of the windows work properly as well. Cruise control works. A/C blows cold.

The stereo was replaced with a new Kenwood CD Player with USB and Aux inputs on the front. It has a remote control as well. I bypassed the factory amplifier as it wasn't working (common problem in these trucks), so the head unit powers all of the speakers now.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.

Just the right Camaro can change your life

Thu, Jan 22 2015

Not many people can say that their car directly motivated them into a career, but that's exactly the case for Adam Martin and his 1968 Chevrolet Camaro that he calls Lucy. Martin bought the pony car in primer when he was just 16, and it helped foster his profession in restoring classic cars. Beyond just being a very cool ride for a teenager, every change to Lucy was an opportunity to hone a new automotive skill for Martin. Whether figuring out how to paint a car or building the 454-cubic-inch (7.4-liter) big block V8, the Camaro offered a platform for experimentation. This latest episode of Petrolicious gets personal about the bond between man and machine for this 18-year ongoing project. And even if the story doesn't immediately grab you, Lucy has a great voice and can do a mean burnout.
