This is a NO RESERVE auction!

Sorry for the long post but there is a lot of good to say about this Tahoe.
This truck is in excellent shape. Just installed a new 5.7L 350 Vortec engine 233 miles ago and it runs very strong. The owner before me had a new B&M transmission and torque converter installed 39k miles ago and it shifts perfectly and runs strong as well. He also had the entire brake system replaced (everything from the master cylinder to the rotors) and all the wear items in the front end such as all ball joints and pitman arms etc. were replaced around the same time. So needless to say this Tahoe drives very well and is very dependable. There are no leaks anywhere either.
The paint is in great shape about a 7 or soft 8 out of 10. The body is in pretty good shape about a 6 or soft 7 out of 10 (little dents here and there no major damage or anything). The interior is about an 8 out of 10, and mechanically its about a 9 out of 10 ( would be a 10 since practically everything is new but it has electronic 4wd and the button just flashes when you push it, not sure what the deal is I had a mechanic tell me it was one of the 4wd servos or something and should only be about $150 to replace it if you knew which one it was and did it yourself). 
It also has brand new Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ 35" tires and brand new 15" wheels. And a 6" Rancho suspension lift and a 3" body lift with the fender skirts (so 9" total lift).
It certainly isn't a new truck but its in about as good a shape as it gets for a '97. Everything works (except the 4wd button) as it should, A/C blows cold and all power options too. it has a decent aftermarket Kenwood CD player with an AUX plug in the glove box for iPod and what not. it had a nice stereo system installed but the sub and amp are removed (still wired though if you have your own stereo). 
I have a whole stack of paper work showing all the maintenance records on this truck. It has been very well taken care of.
The truck itself has a 179k miles on it but truly drives like it has a lot less.
I do not know why it says the VIN is incorrect. I checked it multiple times and I got it correct! I know for a fact that it scores higher than the average vehicle of its kind because I checked it here on E-Bay before I listed it. I personally guarantee that the title is in my name and is a green title free and clear of any liens or any problems.
I tried to take as detailed pictures as possible with the allowed number of pics. Please let me know if you want to see something in particular and i will text them to you. I also have this listed for sale locally so if it sells i will remove this add. 
Please call or text any time 405-250-7471. thanks for looking.

Disregard what I said about the title above. I guess ebay found it now. So that is the correct VIN and actual title history report you see now.


On May-27-13 at 19:17:07 PDT, seller added the following information:

Since I listed the add the a/c switch stopped working. The compressor and blower still work fine and the system is still charged with Freon but the switch intermittently doesn't work now. It is a $35 dollar part but I don't have enough time before the auction ends to order it and replace it. Just thought I would add that to the add so there were no surprises.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

2016 Chevy Colorado grabs Motor Trend Truck of the Year award

Tue, Nov 17 2015

It's not an easy feat to win Motor Trend Truck of the Year twice in a row, but the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado managed to do just that. Thanks to the introduction of the 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder diesel, the magazine decided to bring the pickup back to defend the title. In more good news for the Bowtie brand, the 2016 Camaro earned the magazine's Car of the Year award. The Colorado beat a tough group of finalists to earn the nod this year, including its GMC Canyon sibling. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra also made this year's list. The Nissan Titan XD and latest Toyota Tacoma rounded out the challengers. A model had to shine in six criteria to earn the title: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. Like it did with the Camaro, Motor Trend posted a story online that explained the rationale for picking the Colorado again. They praised the diesel profusely and lauded the whole platform as quite a capable hauler. This year's Motor Trend SUV of the Year honor went to the Volvo XC90. The Swedish 'ute had to win against an initial group of 16 candidates that the magazine eventually whittled down to finalists that consisted of the Honda Pilot, Lincoln MKX, the combined Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class and GLE Coupe, and Nissan Murano. "Seven-passenger people movers aren't supposed to drive like this," senior features editor Jonny Lieberman said about the Volvo in the announcement of the champions. The Honda CR-V won last year. In the explanation online, the judges applauded the XC90's new modular platform, and they loved both the T6 twin-charged engine and T8 hybrid version. The SUV's key enamored the writers, too.
