1999 Gmc Sierra 1500 Sle Extended Cab Pickup 3-door 5.3l on 2040-cars
Ottsville, Pennsylvania, United States
For sale is this clean 1999 GMC Sierra pickup truck. It was purchased in 2007 with 125,000 miles and has had its oil changed every ~3,000 miles. Since 2008, this truck has had piston slap on cold start-ups. This noise goes away after initial warm-up - see video - and otherwise runs/shifts/sounds good. Within the last 25,000 miles, the spark plugs/wires, fuel pump, heater core, disk brake rotors, brake pads, parking brake shoes and backing plates, rear (chrome) bumper, air conditioning compressor, and belts have ALL been replaced - spark plug wires and backing plates with OEM parts. The tires were replaced roughly 12,000 miles ago (in 2011). All brake lines, including one rear hose, were replaced two months ago.
[From above] - This vehicle was in a front-end collision during 2011 which deployed the air bags - no longer installed in the steering wheel or dash. The front bumper, grill, hood, right front fender, and side mirrors were replaced. The right front fog light is missing its lens. The side mirrors do NOT adjust electrically. The frame/front end were checked by an experienced frame shop and interpreted as square/tight/aligned. A large scrape still exists on the right rear quarter panel (from a street sign). The tow/haul mode does NOT work - wire visible through rubber boot is broken (again). The gas gauge has a delayed response to fuel added to the tank; it does, eventually, after several miles/start-ups, read correctly. There is rust showing on both rear fender wells and in the bed - where at least two visible, dime-size holes exist. The seat on the driver's side does NOT recline - handle is missing. There are minor scratches in the paint - SEE PICTURES. A new PA inspection/emissions (through 1/15) will be performed this Tuesday - 11/26 - ensuring that it will be ready for you. Although not to be addressed in the state inspection, the mechanic who replaced the brake lines (a couple months ago) commented that the fuel line should be replaced; it shows signs of corrosion. See the PICTURE of the original window sticker for complete details about the features/options on this truck - including (comfortable) hi-back bucket seats, an off-road chassis equipment package, and a heavy duty trailering package. I must say that over the last 6 years/50,000 miles, this has been a valuable/reliable truck for me. I simply do not have the need for it any longer and am looking for a vehicle with much greater than this truck's ~15 mpg fuel economy.

GM recalling 54k Cadillac SRX, HD pickup models
Thu, 01 May 2014There are more recalls to report General Motors, but these latest actions pertain to newer examples of the Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD. With so much scrutiny on the company's recall strategy, GM is under increasing pressure to call in defective models more quickly, and it appears to be doing so here.
Here in the US, the automaker is recalling 50,571 Cadillac SRX crossovers from the 2013 model year fitted with the 3.6-liter V6 because the transmission control module programming can cause a three- or four-second lag in acceleration at low speeds. The explanation filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states, "if the following sequence occurs within two seconds: during an upshift from first to second gear (8-10 mph), the driver then brakes the vehicle to less than 5 mph, and then accelerates again," the delay can occur. According to Automotive News, the recall effects 56,400 vehicles worldwide, and the company is not aware of any crashes caused by the problem. The fix consists of a transmission control module (TCM) reflash.
In a separate recall, GM is repairing 51 Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from the 2015 model year in the US. In vehicles with diesel engines and dual fuel tanks, the nuts that connect the fuel pipe to each side of the transfer pump between the tanks may be improperly torqued, which could cause a fuel leak. Obviously, this could be a fire hazard. The remedy is simply tightening the hardware. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, there have been no fires actually caused by the potential leak. "Only 21 of the trucks are in customer possession and they can be fixed anytime because there are no parts involved. The others are being fixed at dealerships," Adler said in an email to Autoblog.
A spotter's guide to Super Bowl LIV car commercials
Fri, Jan 31 2020Set to kick off on Fox at 6:30 ET on Sunday, February 2, from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, the big game will feature the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Throughout Super Bowl LIV, viewers will see about 50 commercials, each of which costs as much as $5.6 million per 30 seconds, according to AdWeek. Originally, there were more than 77 ad slots, so several companies could be paying well more than $10 million for a single, longer commercial. Numerous car companies have already announced their commercials, or their intentions to show commercials, during the game. Here's a roundup of the ones we know about so far. During the game on Sunday, we'll be livestreaming and adding links to the new commercials as they become available, so check back with us for that post. Audi: E-Tron Sportback Maisie Williams has experience wearing many faces, and in Audi's Super Bowl commercial, she does her best Elsa impression. In the spot, titled "Let It Go," Williams faces the rigorous task of getting through L.A. traffic, but she's alleviated by the comfort of the Audi E-Tron Sportback electric crossover. The commercial is meant to signal the company leaving its gas past behind and moving forward to a sustainable future. Genesis: GV80 Genesis makes its Super Bowl debut with a commercial that will show its all-new SUV, the GV80, to viewers around the world (many of which will be seeing the vehicle for the first time). The ad features Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as the purveyors of "new luxury," while "old luxury" is left for the birds. GMC: Hummer General Motors is bringing back the Hummer nameplate as a premium electric GMC truck. GM says it will have 1,000 horsepower and will be capable of going zero to 60 mph in three seconds. GM brought in NBA legend and Hummer fanboy LeBron James for the debut commercial. Hyundai: Sonata Hyundai is known for bringing in the big-time celebrities for its commercials, and 2020 is no different. A new advertisement called "Smaht Pahk" features John Krasinski, Chris Evans, and Rachel Dratch, all three of whom are from the Boston area. The trio gets into full character as they discuss the new high-tech parking feature on the redesigned 2020 Hyundai Sonata, and David Ortiz makes a cameo at the end. Even when New England isn't in the Super Bowl, New England is in the Super Bowl.
Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
