This 1992 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon is an exceptionally clean, low mileage, original condition vehicle that has been meticulously maintained during my ownership. Being a California vehicle all it's life it has ZERO rust (note pictures). It is equipped with the tow package, A/C (blows ice cold), rear facing jump seat, dual opening tailgate (folds flat and opens sideways) and power everything (windows, dual power seats, cruise control, door locks, electric antenna, rear window opener, etc). It has been fueled with 91 Octane only and receives oil changes every 5,000 miles with Pennzoil Semi-synthetic. It rides smoothly, steers tight and straight down the road and brakes confidently with power front disc brakes. It's also extremely quiet and recently passed California smog with ease. The engine is the optional 5.7-liter 350 cu-in V8 that runs perfectly, burns no oil, and delivers a solid 16 mpg around town and around 23 mpg on the interstate (400 + mile range). The 4L60 4-speed automatic transmission also shifts perfectly and doesn't leak a drop. I am the second owner of this wagon purchasing it with 58,248 miles on the odometer. It now has 80,400 miles with the majority coming from interstate driving.

The interior of this wagon is in exceptional condition for it's age. I would rate it a solid 8.5 out of 10. Front and rear seats are extremely comfortable and still offer good support, as does the rear facing jump seat. The rear seats also fold flat allowing for cargo space that rivals most pickup trucks. For example a 4'x8' sheet of plywood lies flat.

The exterior exhibits normal wear and tear for a older wagon with a few small parking lot dings, but is honestly in outstanding shape. The tires are Kumho Solus KS21 in size 235/70/15 and are also in good shape.

Recent service items completed within the last 10,000 miles include:
- Complete brake job front and rear, with full fluid flush, new front rotors and pads, new master cylinder and reservoir and new shoes.
- Front wheel bearings repacked with new seals
- New idler arm
- Full transmission flush and service
- New Monroe shocks front/rear
- New water pump
- New fuel pump w/ new fuel filter
- Brand new radiator with built in oil/transmission cooler (tow package option)
- New air filter

Mechanically, this Caprice Wagon needs nothing except a new driver and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it across country at a moments notice. The only items that do need addressing (if you choose) are the rear windows (the track grommets need replacing) and the rear defroster is inoperable. Aside from that you are looking at one of the cleanest GM B-body long-roof wagons out there.

I encourage you to ask as many questions as you wish, as you will get honest answers I assure you.

Shipping of this vehicle (if need be) and pick-up are the sole responsibility of the buyer, however I will help coordinate if necessary. I also encourage people to contact me so as to make an appointment to view this vehicle in person as you won't be disappointed.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

How easy is it to rebuild a Chevy small block V8?

Sat, Mar 21 2015

Chevrolet's famous small block V8 stands as one of the workhorse engines in American auto history, with its variants going into vehicles from hot rods to pickup trucks. But do you know that you can fully disassemble and completely restore one of these mills in just under four minutes? Well, as long as there's some assistance from time-lapse photography, that is. Hagerty created this short clip showing a dirt-covered small block turning from a frog into a prince. Thankfully, the time-lapse doesn't speed the process up too much, and it's still easy to see how all of the principal parts fit together. With all sorts of sensors and software helping to drive the modern automobile, viewing the internal combustion engine in its purely mechanical form is still fascinating. Related Video:

Chevy reveals Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition

Sat, Mar 7 2015

Chevrolet wants to make sure that if people are in the market for a midsize pickup, then there is a Colorado available to fit their desires. For businesses, there's the recently unveiled box delete package and for those looking for a customized look, there's the GearOn Edition. For the latest Z71 Trail Boss version, the automaker is going for folks planning to go off-road. As the name suggests, all Trail Boss versions of the Colorado start with the already off-road-inlined Z71 trim level, including its 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 and six-speed automatic, and the package can be added to practically any body variant: extended or crew cab, long or short bed and rear- or four-wheel drive. To set things apart, there's a locking rear differential, front tow hooks, darkened 17-inch wheels that are shod with Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires and on the four-wheel drive models, a transfer case shield. For some extra style, the Colorado Trail Boss wears black parts for the fender flares, side steps and Bowtie badges. The bed also gets a spray-on liner and a few parts from the GearOn accessory catalog, including the tie-down rings, load bar and cargo divider. The Trail Boss goes on sale in the spring, and to add all of this equipment to a Colorado, it costs $3,320 in addition to the price of any Z71 trim model.

The Trail Boss combines the capability of Chevrolet's Z71 off-road truck suspension package with more aggressive tires and additional appearance enhancements. It is offered in extended and crew cab configurations, with a choice of a long or short cargo bed and available 4WD. The Trail Boss goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $28,505 plus the package price of $3,320. "The Chevrolet Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition is equally at home blazing an urban trail or following one to a favorite remote campground," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager.
