Kansas City, Missouri, United States
2000 GMC SAFARI ALL WHEEL DRIVE CONVERSION (van is a Safari, basically same as an Astro) 114,000 MILES WE WOULD TAKE A VEHICLE AS A PARTIAL TRADE (no even trades). NOT SURE HOW TO ACCOMPLISH THAT AS AN ENDING BINDING AGREEMENT, BUT SEND IDEAS, INFO AND PICS. NO UTILITY VEHICLES. THERE ARE MANY GOOD THINGS ABOUT THE VAN BUT THERE'S ALOT OF BAD. SO PLEASE READ ALL THE LISTING CAREFULLY. BID IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PURCHASING, I WILL BE MORE THAN THOROUGH. GOOD: AWD RUNNING BOARDS - RAISED ROOF TIRES ARE ALL MATCHING AND AT LEAST 75% TREAD NO RUST NO LEAKS QUIET ENGINE, SHIFTS SMOOTH, NORMAL TEMPERATURE, GOOD OIL PRESSURE DVD, POWER INVERTER, TV, CASSETTE, CD AND REAR STEREO REAR BENCH MAKES TO A BED NEW BUG SHIELD AND RAIN VISORS ALL THE REAR LIGHTS WORK LAST SEVERAL YEARS NON SMOKER NEW PARTS: FUEL PUMP FUEL FILTER OIL PRESSURE SWITCH POWER STEERING PUMP 2 POWER STEERING HOSES RETURN LINE FILTER TUBE HOSE (goes from reservoir to p.s. pump) FAN BELT BATTERY TAIL PIPE RUNNING BOARDS BAD: MARKS ON FRONT AND REAR BUMPER AND TEAR IN FRONT BUMPER CREASE ON FRONT DRIVERS FENDER DENT NEAR REAR DOOR BONDO PUTTY ON REAR DOOR REAR DOORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND SPRAY PAINTED AND YOU CAN TELL IT INSIDE OF REAR DOORS IS GREY NOT TAN RUNNING BOARDS WERE REPLACED AND DO NOT FIT LIKE THE OTHER ONES DID. YOU CAN TELL THE ARE NOT THE PROPER FIT BUT THE COLOR DOES MATCH NICELY. THE WHEELS HAVE PITTING AND RASH NUMEROUS SCRATCHES AND DINGS DOOR HANDLES ARE THE TYPICAL ASTRO HANDLES BUT THEY ALL WORK SEATS ARE EITHER STAINED OR THEY HAVE WEAR SPOTS - I JUST CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHICH IT IS THERE ARE A COUPLE SMALL HOLES ON THE PASSENGER SEAT (see pic) DASH HAS A TEAR SPOT (see pic) 2-4 STAINS OR BURNS ON CEILING ONE OF THE CAPTAINS CHAIRS IS BROKEN. IT IS NOT SHOWN IN THE PICTURES.. I HAVE THE CHAIR. IT WILL NOT SIT UPRIGHT. IT CAN BE REPAIRED AND IT'S YOURS IF YOU WANT IT. THE REAR BLINDS WERE REMOVED, AS THEY WERE BAD. THERE ARE 2 CUPHOLDERS IN THE REAR THAT NEED THE PLASTIC. THERE ARE STAINS ON THE CARPET. THERE ARE A CLUSTER OF SMALL TEARS ON THE BIG SLIDING DOOR. THE WINDOW SWITCH FELL INTO THE PASSENGER DOOR. IT'S BEEN IN THERE FOR OVER A YEAR, BUT I THINK IT WORKED. THE WINDOW GOES UP AND DOWN FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE. SOMETIMES THE LOCKS DON'T UNLOCK THE DOOR ALL THE WAY. THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT IS ON BUT THE BRAKES FEEL GOOD. THE REAR SPEAKERS WILL SOUND DISTORED WITH HEAVY BASS THE CHAIRS ARE FEELING BROKE IT. THE A/C WILL STAY COLD FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS AND THEN THE FREON LEAKS OUT THERE IS A WHINING ROAR COMING FROM THE REAR. MAYBE DIFFERENTIAL, MAYBE WHEEL BEARING. WE'VE NEVER CHECKED IT. THE VAN ALSO SEEMS TO TO KIND OF "SKIP" WHEN YOU MAKE A SLOW HARD TURN, IF THAT MAKES SENSE. WHEN YOU COME TO A QUICK STOP THE VAN DOES A PULSATING/VIBRATING. ROTORS MAY NEED TURNED. THE REAR AREA UNDER THE VAN ON THE SIDES IS PUSHED UP ON BOTH SIDES. WE THINK THIS MAY HAVE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE PRIOR RUNNING BOARDS. SINCE THE RUNNING BOARDS WERE GONE WE DON'T KNOW IF THE SIDES HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH HOW THEY WERE ON. BOTH SIDES ARE THE SAME WAY. THE BAD LIST MAY FRIGHTEN A BIDDER BUT I CAN TRULY SAY, IF I HAD TO DRIVE FROM MISSOURI TO MAINE AND LEAVE TOMORROW - I'D JUMP IN THIS VAN AND I WOULDN'T THINK TWICE. IN THE LAST YEAR WE'VE MADE ABOUT $1000 IN REPAIRS AND WE HAVE ALMOST ALL THE RECEIPTS AND MOST OF THEM ARE LIFETIME WARRANTIES. THE VAN STARTS EVERYTIME, DRIVES SMOOTH DOWN THE ROAD AND ON THE COLDEST SUB ZERO MORNINGS IT ALWAYS STARTED. |

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain
Sat, Aug 9 2014Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
