Have you ever seen an item or vehicle for sale online, gone to look at it in person, and then discovered that the seller wasn’t completely honest or “forgot” to mention significant flaws?  I have, and it wasted my time and a plane ticket, so I will not do that to you.  If I’m aware of a flaw, I will tell you about it NOW rather than try to mislead you with this truck.  I am selling this truck for an estate, and it’s not costing me a dime to sit here, so I have nothing to gain by tricking you, and my integrity to lose by doing the same.   With that being said, please ask me for any clarification and I will do my best to get that information to you. 

This Avalanche is a 2007, first year of the new body style, with the 5.3 engine.  I’m not 100% sure of the trim level, but I believe it is the LTZ or LT, as it has all the options and cost about $40k new.  This Avalanche has been a one owner vehicle, but had to be transferred twice within the estate and may show those additional "owners".  Carfax is clean, I have one from May, but you’re welcome to run a fresh one on your own.  The Carfax I have lists one backup collision (considering it has a camera and sensors, I don't know how THAT happened) with no damage.  

 

2007 Chevrolet Avalanche LT/LTZ  VIN# 3GNEC12J97G238192

123,918 miles

Black original paint on black leather interior with burlwood trim. 

Front tires are nearly new, rear tires are above the wear bars.

Original wheels were painted (or powdercoated, I’m not sure) black and have spacers to make them appear wider.  These spacers are the high quality type with their own studs and do not compromise safety.  

Original Bose sound system (with rear seat controls) upgraded with MTX amp for subwoofers (subwoofers themselves are missing) and Pioneer head unit with navigation and satellite.

Transmission was professionally rebuilt less than 100 miles ago and shifts as new.

Engine replaced under warranty by dealer, I believe around the 30k mile mark, but I’m not 100% certain.  I will look through the records and try to get that information for you. 

Ice cold A/C and hot heater

No rust (south Florida car since new)

Upgraded Flowmaster mufflers (nice rumble, especially under acceleration)

Driver’s door switch bank replaced with new OEM.

Aftermarket alarm (not sure if it works though).

Windshield just replaced by Safelite.

Back door and window limo tint (front doors non-tinted).

 

 

The bad:

Tailgate handle broken (still works, but needs replacing)

Front bumper has small hole (about the size of a dime) and a light impact at the driver’s side below the grill.

Billet grill is bent

HID foglights, but passenger side headlight bucket is melted and needs replacing.

Misc. dings, scratches, chips overall with a nasty gouge/dent on the passenger fender.

Dash is cracked behind passenger airbag (please research this.  It’s a known defect from Chevrolet and they usually replace it for a nominal fee)

Headlight switch works but the mount is cracked on the left side, so you can push it.  It doesn’t need to be replaced, per se, but is annoying if you’re anal about stuff like that like me.

Bezel around gauges has weird stains on it.

Some cigarette burns on headliner and seats (pictured). 

Backup camera is only zip tied into place and does not work.  May be disconnected.

Driver front air pressure sensor non-functioning.

Check engine light on, possibly O2 sensor issue.

Stereo possibly has a loose ground.  Sometimes it works great, other times it has a whine or won’t power up. 

Front driver’s suspension has an occasional clunk.

 

Ok, please read this:    I am selling this truck for an estate as a family friend and am not a dealer.  I’m making zilch on this, and it’s not costing me anything to sit there, so I don’t need to sell this “here’s a low ball offer for CASH TODAY!!”  Please, don’t waste my time.  Truck is available for inspection in Delray Beach, Florida, and I welcome you to bring a mechanic.  You are welcome to go look at the truck anytime you like, but my work schedule is heavy and I will have to schedule an appointment if you’d like to take it for a drive.   There are new ceramic coated headers and an aftermarket sway bar available to purchase if you want, but I will NOT include them with the sale of the truck.   The truck was well maintained since new, but neglected when the owner fell on hard times, and it’s been parked with only occasional use for the past two years.  It starts right up, runs great, and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere (if you can deal with the danged radio).  This truck is PERFECT for someone looking to get a clean Avalanche well below market value and fix it up as they drive it.  Looks mean, sounds meaner and is comfortable.   I expect a $500 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours upon the close of the auction, with the truck picked up within 7 days of auction end, or storage fees will be added.  Full payment due at pickup.  I can certainly assist with a shipper or local storage if need be.   Please ask any questions prior to the auction end as I'm not going to negotiate the price after the auction.  I can take any pictures or video that you’d like, as I want you to be happy when you come to see it and not disappointed.   I have some YouTube videos already uploaded that give you more information and details, please email me for links. 


It's a great truck, just needs a new owner and some TLC.   Thanks for looking and good luck with your bidding!

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

Porsche wins the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, Jun 14 2015

The question going into this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans was whether or not the Porsche 919 Hybrid would be able to combine its qualifying pace with race reliability. After battling neck-and-neck with Audi's R18 for most of the race, the answer is a resounding yes. Not only did Porsche drivers climb the first two spots on the podium, they did so without any major mishaps on track. This win is the first overall trophy for Porsche since 1998. Audi previously won the last five races, and 13 of the last 15. Corvette also returned to the winner's circle, with the No. 64 C7.R taking winning the GTE Pro division. The victory is the first class win for Corvette since 2011. KCMG won the LMP2 class in ninth overall. With 45 minutes to go the No. 98 Aston Martin crashed out of first place in GTE Amateur, giving the class win to SMP Racing's Ferrari and second place to the Patrick Dempsey Racing Porsche 911 RSR. For the full list of official results, click here. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. For most of the race, the battle at the top went back and forth between the two German manufacturers. An tire puncture in the No. 7 Audi gave up the lead to Porsche, and moments later a crash forced the No. 8 into the garage. But a three-minute replacement of the front and rear bodywork kept the Audi in contention. As the race wore into the night, Porsche maintained a slightly faster pace than Audi. Nick Tandy took the lead on Lap 253 early Sunday morning, and car No. 19 never gave up the top position. The win is the first for all three drivers of the No. 19 – Nico Hulkenberg, Earl Bamber, and Nick Tandy. A lap behind in second was the No. 17 Porsche. The Audis fought reliability problems late in the race but still finished third with the No. 7 R18. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. As the Aston Martin cars dropped away, the lone Corvette Racing entry took over, followed by a charging AF Corse team Ferrari 458 Italia. The Corvette and Ferrari continued to trade places in the final hours until gearbox trouble forced the No. 51 Ferrari out of contention. It was eventually passed by the other AF Corse car, No. 71. Nissan experienced all the pain of a first-year effort with its front-wheel-drive GT-R LM Nismo.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
