Up for sale is my 1989 Chevy, Scottsdale, 2500, 3/4 ton, 4WD, Pickup.
As amazing as it sounds, I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER of this truck! Yes I purchased the truck brand new from the dealer.
I believe this was the last year they made the Scottsdale model but I could be wrong. This is a HEAVY 3/4 ton pickup which means that it sits on practically a one ton frame. It's an 8600 lb truck compared to a 7800 lb which is a regular 3/4 ton.
This is a work truck and needs work, restoration, etc, so read on....
This was a work truck and is sold as is. 
Some history on the truck;
-Never been in an accident other than some dings and dents from use on construction jobs.
-Don't know the true odometer reading because the speedometer/odometer stopped working some time ago. Actual reading is 169367.
-It is on its 3rd engine and runs smooth.
-There is some noise due to some exhaust system issues.
-It is on its second transmission which works very well.
-Does need extensive front end work and CV boots and possibly more.
-One of the brake cylinders leaks fluid so even though it runs well, it would need to be towed or rollbacked in any event. More than likely, it just needs some small parts to fix.
-Seat is in bad condition.
-Ladder rack is not in good condition and would need some welding, a rear crossbar, sanding and painting if buyer intends to use it. Might be worth it just to scrap it.
-Does include an aluminum toolbox which is not in great shape, but works and does not leak.
-Radio is present but isn't working.
-AC compressor and all parts are in place but also doesn't work.
-No lies, this truck would need a lot of work but would be a great truck to restore because it is now historic if I'm not mistaken.

Hadn't started the truck in a while. Got a new battery, put in some fuel stabilizer, and the truck started right up. Still sounds very smooth! Transmission engages fine and all gears work fine.

Included will be eight tires in addition to the four on it which are used but have a good amount of tread left.

Even considering the condition. Looking around the web and checking websites for valuation, seeing what these sell for even in this condition, the ballpark that I am after is more than fair.
Obviously, this is local pickup only and will need to be towed to new owner's destination, at new owner's expense.

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles.  The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.

Here's why automakers roll out those Texas-themed pickup trucks

Thu, Sep 29 2016

Every year, automakers with a full-size truck link make a big show of the Texas State Fair, usually involving a reveal of a new model. Sometimes they show a whole new truck, and other times a special edition centered on the Lone Star state. While some people might write this off as a quirk of the industry, others might be wondering, "What's the big deal with Texas?" As it turns out, part of the big deal with Texas is big truck sales. According to Dave Sullivan, product analysis manager at AutoPacific, Texas buys more trucks than any other state in the country. It's not a small margin either. Edmunds.com, one in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. The state also accounts for 15 percent of the country's large truck sales, which is more than twice that of California, the second largest truck market in America. Even when you break down sales only in Texas, trucks are a huge piece of the pie - Sullivan says that a quarter of new vehicle sales in Texas are trucks. One in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. But it's not just sales that make truck builders give attention to Texas. As Sullivan explained, "Pickups are life in Texas." Both he and Hugh Milne, marketing and advertising manager for the Chevy Silverado line, said that trucks are key fixtures in Texas society, as both work trucks and luxury vehicles (or Texas Cadillacs as Milne called them). Milne said Texas is so important in the truck market that if you want to be successful in the rest of the country, "you've got to be successful in Texas." As for the State Fair, it has become a prime location for reveals in part because of the importance of the Texas market and because of how big the fair is. Milne also revealed that the State Fair also hosts its own auto show, so it's an ideal venue for a vehicle introduction. So there you have it. Why do truck builders obsess over Texas? It's because Texas obsesses over trucks. When you have one market that loves your product that much, you give it the attention it deserves.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
