1989 GMC Sierra SL 2500 - 2WD
Up for sale is my trusted GMC Sierra pickup truck. NO RESERVE. I bought the truck as a work/beater truck for household/yard jobs but it turns out I seldom drive it so here it is for sale. The previous owner had this truck in a fleet as evidenced by the dirt embedded into the interior despite my best efforts to remove it. The mileage is uknown (which is why the listing showns 999,999). The odometer has never turned since I purchased the truck in 2010. The engine runs strong and has been trouble free since I purchased it. If you are looking for a basic and inexpensive work truck that you don't need to worry about putting to work and scraping it up, this one fits the bill!
Features:
5.7L V8
2WD - Two Wheel Drive
3 speed automatic
8 foot box
This truck is relatively unique in that it has very few options. It is not equipped with a/c - hence the blank out plates on the vents on the dash. Instead the truck has pull-stops to open fresh-air vents below the dash.
Radio with cassette player (non-functioning - I don't know why)
bedliner
The Good:
Runs great
Starts the first time, every time
Solid exhaust system (see photos)
Tires still have a lot of tread depth on them
The Bad:
The mileage of the truck is unknown. It reads a bit over 112,000 miles, but it was reading this when I bought the truck in the summer of 2010 and the reading has never changed.
Transmission leaks a little bit of fluid - I assume it needs a new gasket but I have never attempted to replace/repair it.
Rust (see photos)
Passenger seat-belt doesn't tension properly (latches but is not fully taught)
Radio and cassette player do not work (turns on, but no sound)
Dome light doesn't work - may just need a new bulb
Tears in the seat cushion
Fading amateur paint job
Spare tire and jack are both missing
Check engine light comes on occasionally, but doesn't stay on and doesn't seem to run any differently when the light comes on.
Please contact me if you are interested in coming to check the truck out. The truck is no longer currently registered as I just transferred plates to another vehicle so test drives will have to be limited to the side-streets in my neighborhood.
Here is the not-so-fine print:
Vehicle is sold 'AS IS' with no warranty.
Vehicle must be picked up within 14 days of end of auction.
$100 deposit required within 48 hours of close of auction.
Any bidders with a feedback rating of less than 5 will be cancelled.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X Pickup gets a range boost
Thu, Jul 13 2023The 2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X Pickup is getting an update for more range in the new model year. Instead of 355 miles, the new long-range version of the 3X Pickup will go 381 miles. Note that you need to option the 24-module battery pack to get this range figure. However, if you go for the standard 20-module battery pack, GMC says range is improved for 2024, as well. The GM-estimated figure goes from 329 miles for 2023, all the way up to 359 miles for 2024. You should also note that acceleration times are different depending on battery pack, too, as the longer-range model does 0-60 mph in 3.0 seconds versus the 3.5 seconds of the standard range version. The other big choice you’ll need to make is whether or not you tack on the “Extreme Off-Road Package.” This adds 18-inch wheels wrapped by 35-inch mud-terrain tires, four addiitonal underbody camera views for a total of 18, front e-locker with rear virtual locking differentials, heavy-duty ball-spline half-shafts along with more skid plates and underbody shielding. WeÂ’ll also note that range suffers as a result of this equipment. GM only provides the range figure for the upgrade 24-module pack, and it goes down from 381 miles to 359 miles. GMC says the 2024 Hummer 3X Pickup will go on sale to reservation holders this fall and start at $106,945, including the destination charge. Related video:
