 I am selling my 2000 GMC K2500 Sierra SLT pickup.  I have owned this pickup for the past 6 years (80,000 miles).  It has been a great truck but needs to be moved on to make room for another one.  I have used it mostly for over the road towing.  The 7.4 liter, 454 runs strong and doesn't use any oil to speak of.  It has been maintained mostly by a local shop and I have all receipts.  I have tried to keep the oil changed every 3500-4000 miles. 
 
I have done a number of performance modifications. It has a K&N air filter and a larger 3" muffler and exhaust that is in good shape.  I also had the computer programmed to get a few more horses and also made the transmission shift a little firmer (not much but a little to help the torque converter). 

It has Michelin LTX/MS 2 tires with about half tread left and all in good shape (no broken belts, balanced and true)  It had the aftermarket rims and they still look fair.  If you get up close you can see some of the clear coat coming off, etc.  

It has minor rust spots around (see pictures) but is in very good shape for the year.  I installed the running boards when I got it and they have a few rust spots but should go a while yet.  A few places the paint has chipped off.  GM had some issues with this and this truck is no exception. 

It has a cap on the back and bedrug in the bed.  I used it to haul furniture so it is clean and nice.  The leather seats are in good shape for the year.  The drivers seat has rips starting but I have held them at bay with an epoxy glue that I have put on it to keep it from tearing all the way.  All power windows all work well.  The power door locks have never worked very well.  The drivers door lock works but the rest of the doors dont always lock with the key fob or the power lock button.  I have learned to just lock it manually.  It has 3 power plugs for lots of hookups.  I have a scan guage (see pic) installed that I will let go with the truck.  I used it to monitor transmission fluid temperature and speed (it is more accurate than the regular speedo).  All gauges work.  The radio works well.  The A/C blows cold.  The cruise works great.  I installed electric fans to replace the original power robbing manual clutch one.  It also has a larger (I think 200 amp) alternator for more electrical power for the electric fans, trailer brakes, etc.  I recently installed new headlights to replace the originals that were getting cloudy. 

I installed a larger transmission cooler on it (because of the towing, see pic taken through grill) soon after I got it.  This has helped keep the fluid temperature down when towing.  The 4L80E transmission is known to be bulletproof.  I just got the Trans oil changed (2nd time since I owned it).  It has a heavy hitch (Class V). 

It comes with 4 floor mats that are in good shape.

Please feel free to call or email with questions.  My number is 540-560-3290.

 I forgot to mention, it also has an aftermarket remote start that works great.

2019 GMC Sierra Denali MultiPro tailgate and CarbonPro bed explained

Fri, Mar 2 2018

When the 2019 Chevy Silverado debuted at the Detroit Auto Show in January, GM's Mark Reuss promised that the new 2019 GMC Sierra would have some significantly different styling and features than its corporate sibling. Previously, the Sierra has been little more than a Silverado with new front and rear fascias and some extra chrome inside and out. Well, Reuss was right. In addition to new sheetmetal, the Sierra exclusively gets the slick MultiPro tailgate and CarbonPro carbon-fiber bed box The tailgate really is trick. At the debut, GMC had multiple demonstrations, with engineers walking us through all six different configurations. Like all Sierra tailgates, the MultiPro version uses an aluminum skin to reduce weight. It's easy to tell which tailgate is which, as the MultiPro has a distinct cutout in the middle where it can fold down or extend. It can be used to extend the bed, drop to allow easier access, provide a sort of workbench, or be used as a step to help get into the bed. Yes, there's even a handle. Ford who? The step itself can support up to 375 pounds, 75 pounds more than Ford's similar tailgate step. This tailgate really is unique to the Sierra and is standard on SLT and Denali models. That said, the power-operated tailgate from the Silverado won't be coming to the GMC. Chevy gets its own exclusive, too. The Sierra's other big exclusive is the carbon-fiber reinforced plastic bed box. CFRP replaces steel inside the bed though not on the fenders. The bed uses four pieces; one for the bottom, one in the back and two along the sides. This isn't a CFRP. There is no steel hiding underneath these panels. Just take a peek underneath. The bed is a composite that uses 1-inch carbon-fiber threads, not a weave. Sheets of CFRP are molded and quenched — a process where the plastic coagulates and solidifies, locking in the carbon fiber — in just 60 seconds. That allows GMC's supplier to crank out these much more quickly. The finish looks like black fiberglass, though an engineer said that this wasn't the final production version. The final model will have different textures in order to improve grip and keep things from sliding around. GMC is touting the material's dent and corrosion resistance, though it remains to be seen how well it holds up to cracking. A video at the reveal showed people going after it with hammers and cinder blocks, but in-person demonstrations weren't available.

Trademark application points to evolution of new Hummer EV logo

Mon, Aug 17 2020

A trademark application has revealed yet another evolution of the logo expected to adorn GMC's new Hummer EV pickup truck, bringing back the big "H" badge utilized on the H2 and H3 model lines of the expanded SUV lineup's heyday.  The image included with the filing depicts a logo that should be familiar to Hummer fans (or really any American who left their house between 2003 and 2010), with "EV" supplanting the old numerical model indicator. The "Hummer" and "EV" typeface appears to be a direct lift from a filing that surfaced back in April.  This should provide some comfort to folks who are fans of the idea of a future-proofed, all-electric pickup, but want something that embodies the charisma and road presence of the models sold in Hummer's now-deceased, not-so-environmentally-spectacular incarnation. While we don't yet know really any details of the new all-electric SUV, we do know it will be sold via GMC dealers, meaning the revived nameplate will not bring the rest of the Hummer brand along with it.  We haven't really seen much of the new truck, save for teasers and hints here and there. Even the "reveal" back in June only gave us a vague, big-picture look at the truck's silhouette, and various companion images and videos have hinted at features such as a removable roof assembly.  The truck’s general shape is off-road oriented with squared-off, sharp lines tracing the entire silhouette. Its big, knobby tires and blocky wheels are clear indicators of what GM was aiming for with this electric pickup. As for the SUV, comparisons to the Ford Bronco four-door will be inevitable. If our eyes are picking up the scale of this photo correctly, though, the Hummer SUV appears to be a slightly larger vehicle than the four-door Bronco is. Although, the wheelbase for the SUV is shorter than that of the Hummer truck. ThatÂ’ll help it off-road. Those small bumpers and short overhangs along with the bumper cutouts should be hugely beneficial to approach and departure angles, as well. GMCÂ’s shots of the Hummer in the studio are equally as revealing. We can see what looks to be an intense front skid plate and two big tow hooks. In addition to the off-road gear, GMC has allowed a look at the frunk. The front “grille” is one piece with the hood of the truck, so the whole assembly pulls up. That makes for what appears to be a very easy-to-load front trunk compared to other EVs that force you to lift items up and over the front of the car.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
