Priced to sell! This is a 1976 GMC 4 Door 1 Ton Dually in good condition. I bought this truck 4 years ago from a guy that had used it hauling race cars to local tracks. I have been told that the engine had been re-done presumably by that person and it runs great. You can tell when it is running that it has had a slightly larger cam put in along with an edelbbrock intake manifold. It is a Big Block 454 and has a 4 barrel carburetor, plenty of engine power. It has dual exhaust with mufflers and sounds great. The odometer shows 69,300 and I'm not sure if that is actual miles or not since it only reads in the tens of thousands not hundreds. The title just shows exempt on the mileage. Since I have had the truck, it has been re-painted both inside and out, the seats have been recovered in black vinyl, and the floor has been covered in a roll in bed liner. The insert bed liner has kept the inside of the bed in great shape over the years. I have replaced the radiator, starter, alternator, and battery all within the last several years so you shouldn't have to worry with those going bad anytime soon. The air conditioner had been un-hooked before I purchased and although I thought I would hook it back up I never got around to doing it. As shown in the picture, the Air-conditioning unit is still attached to the firewall. It has the brake adjustment built in and ready to pull any trailers with electric brakes. It also has a hitch with the capability of pulling any camper or any trailer. Someone had installed the rails to a fifth wheel into the bed but I never used them nor is there a fifth wheel hitch with the truck. The rails are under the bed liner. All of the outside lights work on this truck and looks great of a night. The four doors have been a great use allowing additional storage room and room for others to ride. The back seat does flip up allowing minor storage behind it. It has two gas tanks and both work with the flip of a switch under the dash. I have installed a new Sony cd player/radio with two 6x9 Sony Xplode speakers with a remote and they sound good. The dash had been re-covered before my purchase and the head-liner had also been replaced as well. The truck looks good, especially considering the paint is only a few years old. It has had an aftermarket grill put on it, louvered hood, windshield overhang, chrome window rain guards, and a new steering wheel all of which add to the appearance of the truck. There are a few places where the paint has chipped off such as around the back window and right above the rain guards (see picture) which would be typical. The truck is not show quality but it does look good with no major flaws. I wanted the truck to look good while being able to perform the work duties without worrying about every little thing. The truck has had 2 coats of base paint and 4 coats of clear coat. There are some rust spots working their way through on both chrome bumpers (see pictures) but overall this truck looks great rolling down the road. I probably only put about 3,000 - 4,000 miles on this truck each year. I tried to list everything I could think of, but if you have any questions, or would like more pictures of anything specific, don't hesitate to call (812) 631-2914 and ask for Derek or send me an email message. If you are a first time buyer, call or email before bidding just to confirm that you are a serious buyer and not a scam. I will accept paypal, cashiers check, or cash. I do have this truck sitting out locally and reserve the right to cancel this listing if sold before the auction ends. Thanks for bidding and I'm sure whomever gets the truck will enjoy it.

GM's MPG overstatement could affect 2 million vehicles
Tue, May 17 2016Late last week, GM admitted that three of its large SUVs fuel economy window stickers did not match their actual efficiency ratings, and so the vehicles couldn't be sold. The stickers on the 2016 Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave said their ratings were one to two miles per gallon better than they should have been. Officially, the number of affected vehicles sits at about 60,000. But Consumer Reports makes a good point: what's up with all of the previous model year SUVs that are basically the same vehicle? To wit: the 2016 model year vehicles are not substantially different than the 2015 or the 2014, or even going all the way back to 2007. On the EPA's fuel economy website, all of these older models will "have better stated fuel economy numbers than the new vehicles in GM's dealerships," Consumer Reports noted. CR's best point, and the one that makes the 60,000 number potentially grow to 2 million if all of the vehicles built on this platform are affected, is that "[i]t seems unlikely that the company would change the powertrain on these carryover models so late in their model cycles in a way that would cause a dramatic, negative impact on fuel economy." GM says that earlier model year SUVs are not affected and the EPA did not respond to CR's question about the potential for more discrepancies. We've seen automakers reverse course before, so if GM has to come out with a mea culpa soon, don't be surprised. GM is rushing corrected stickers to dealers so that the SUVs can be sold again, but a fix for the already-sold vehicles could be trickier to solve.

Next Chevy Silverado could get this built-in tailgate step
Thu, Feb 2 2017General Motors just received patent approval for a tailgate step in a pickup bed. And given the timing, don't be surprised if you see this on the upcoming 2019 Silverado pickup (not the mention its GMC Sierra twin), expected to arrive in late 2018. According to the patent, granted in December of last year, the whole mechanism is housed in the tailgate assemble. The magic happens when a portion of the top half of the tailgate swings down and a step folds out. There's also a handle that locks into position to help climb up into the bed. As trucks get bigger and taller over the years, it gets harder and harder to access the cargo bed. Ford's solution with the 2009 F-150 was a step that slides out from the end of the tailgate. Back then, Chevy made an ill-advised ad highlighting the feature for Ford. And while Howie Long mocked the F-150's "man step" Ford saw almost a third of its trucks with the option in the first year. The GM design seems to improve on Ford's idea as it appears to be wider and has a back to the lower step. That is, you don't have to worry about stepping through the ladder-rung design as on the F-150. Ford's tailgate step later spread to the F Super Duty, and other cargo access assists have proliferated through the truck world. On the most recent redesign, the Chevrolet Silverado took a trick from the Avalanche and added cutouts to the corners of the rear bumper that act as a foothold. Ford also offers a deployable side step, Chevrolet has running boards that scoot rearward with a kick of the boot, and Ram offers fixed wheel-to-wheel side rails. Nissan is in on the game too, with an optional folding step that tucks under the rear bumper. We don't expect Chevrolet to comment on when or if we'll see this feature in the showrooms. But given that engineers are already hard at work on the next Silverado and the timing of this patent lines right up with the new truck's development cycle, we'll be disappointed if this patent stays in the file cabinet.

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists
Sat, Oct 24 2015Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.
