1987 Gmc Jimmy Sierra Classic Sport Utility 2-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Year:1987
Mileage:173000

Up for auction is my fuel injected 1987 GMC Jimmy K5. This is a very original southern vehicle, with very little rust. I have owned at least 6 of these k5's and I can tell you it easier to start on one with potential than to buy a cheap rust bucket and fix it. This is a factory equiped fuel injected 305 and a new engine was installed about 10,000 miles ago. It still has the factory auto locking hubs. All the power windows work; however they are a little slow. The dash is perfect with no cracks along with the door panels. The seats are vinyl and the driver seat will need to be recovered, but the other 2 are fine.The air condition works, but may need charge come summer. The last time I ran the ac was september and it worked fine. The paint is a little weak especially on the passenger side, but driver side is fine. My guess is it stayed under a carport and the passenger side was exposed to the elements. A small exhaust leak can be heard when you first crank it up but it goes away after it warms up, so I am assuming it is where the manifold and collector meet. It does not have the typical rust on the quarter panels, fenders or rocker panels. The only spot is under the top on the passenger side, pics will show this. This is my daily driver, so I have tried to keep up with maintenance, but it is 27 years old and things just fail. If you have never owned a older vehilce, replacing parts is just part of owning one. I think it has a valve cover leak, but the engine does not smoke and the fuel injection sure is nice opposed to a carbuerator. This is the only fuel injected one I have owned and it is nice not having to pump the gas to crank it up. The transmisssion is a 700r4 which means it is a overdrive transmission. The vehicle shows 73,000 miles but Im sure it is at least 173,000 so I'm sure the transmission has been replaced at some time. If you are familiar with the 700r4, factory built ones do no last long, so that's why I say it probably has been replaced with 173,000 miles. I put new 33x10.50 BFG Mud Terrains on it in November 2013 so they may have 1500 miles on them. Other new parts are starter, battery, alternator and axle seals. Bumpers are also in good shape and has a receiver hitch. I do not have to sell this vehicle and if it does sell I hope it goes to someone that wants one to restore or keep factory original. This also for sale locally so I may end the auction early. A $500.00 is due at the end of auction. I can be contacted @ 731-780-4298 if you have any questions or need to see anything else.

2019 GMC Yukon Graphite Edition offers Denali engine and features without the chrome
Tue, Jun 12 2018A sporty-looking option package called RST was recently introduced for the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban that also offered the option of a 6.2-liter V8 and magnetic suspension. Now GMC is getting in on the action with the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL Graphite Edition. The trim package adds a number of visual enhancements, and, if you're so inclined, has a performance version with the same 6.2-liter V8 and magnetic suspension as the Tahoe RST and Yukon Denali. As for appearances, the Graphite Edition adds black trim almost everywhere, including the roof rails, grille, fog light surrounds, and window surrounds. It also adds 22-inch wheels, regardless of whether it's just the appearance version or the performance version. The appearance package has machined-finish wheels, and the performance package has black painted wheels. As previously mentioned, the performance version of the Graphite Edition adds magnetic suspension and the 6.2-liter V8 with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque found on the Denali and the Tahoe and Suburban RSTs. It's coupled to a 10-speed automatic transmission, and gets a rear axle ratio of 3.23:1. It also gets a few other Denali features such as a color heads-up display, Bose noise cancellation, a 170-amp alternator, and a trailer brake controller. The Graphite Edition can be had with both two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. The Graphite Edition can only be had on Yukon and Yukon XL SLT models. Pricing hasn't been announced yet, but it's likely it will be a bit more affordable than buying a Denali model.

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
2015 GMC Canyon gets the party started [w/video]
Sun, 12 Jan 2014The 2014 Detroit Auto Show press days officially kick off tomorrow, but the night before all the madness commences, General Motors drove its new 2015 GMC Canyon pickup truck out for all to see. To refresh your memory, the Canyon is GMC's new midsize pickup - essentially a re-skinned version of the Chevrolet Colorado that debuted at the LA Auto Show in November.
Many of us at Autoblog prefer the look of the larger GMC Sierra to that of its Chevy Silverado kin, and we're having similar feelings about the new Canyon, especially after seeing it in person. It's sort of a pint-sized version of the Sierra, and it looks great. Clean lines are found throughout, and the Canyon's styling is decidedly premium.
At launch, the Canyon will be offered with the same engines as the Colorado - a 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine with 193 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque on the base end, and a larger 3.6-liter V6 with 302 hp and 270 lb-ft as an option. The Colorado's 2.8-liter diesel inline four-cylinder will be available after launch. Both two- and four-wheel drive configurations will be available, depending on the model.
