Up for Auction Today is my 1978 Chevy Cheyenne Big Ten. I bought this Truck from the second owner in the small town where I live. The first owner owned it from new till 1981 when he traded it in @ a Dealer in The Dalles Oregon, The owner I bought it from owned it from 1981 till This Summer When I purchased it. All The people in Klickitat Wa. where I live and found the truck say the first owner never left town with it the time he owned it. (Klickitat is about 1 mile long.) The owner I bought it from said he drove it to the dalles about 1 time a month from 1981-1992 when he parked it with a transmission leak. He swore up and down it has 21,000 miles but I have no proof of that, So Im selling it as mileage unknown! This is a big ten Model which means its a 1/2 ton with 3/4 ton chassis. Google Big Ten Chevy and it will give you a couple page explanation of this package. Truck Runs really well as it should and the transmission has been removed, inspected and resealed by a professional mechanic. He also installed a stage 1 shift kit while he was re installing it. Truck does puff a tiny bit of smoke upon start up but vanishes almost instantly. i believe is a dried out valve seal causing it. it does not use oil at all though. I had a Factory 1978 Chevrolet tailpipe/muffler installed in august. Tires have 600 miles on then and cost me $860.00 I  also had wheels powder coated at same time. belt,radiator,hoses have all been replaced. Truck has cruise control but needs cable from speedo to cruise box. right know theres a speedo cable from trans to speedo. vehicle is equipt. with air condioning but needs recharged. system is complete though. Interior is in great shape but will need a seat cover as its starting to split at seems. headliner sags so it needs to be re glued or replaced. dash is nice but speaker grill cracked this winter. I've driven this truck about 2000 miles since purchase and its been very reliable. It also has brand new battery.Body has been lightly polished and waxed.Comes with nice used factory gm grille that needs a new bow tie. I'm only selling because I'm having one of my kidneys removed on march 27 and need money for bills while I'm off. Please feel Free to call me with any questions (I really encourage it) . DO NOT BID TO LOOK AT VEHICLE, YOUR BIDDING TO OWN THIS NICE UNMOLESTED TRUCK. THIS TRUCK IS NOT PERFECT BUT I BELIEVE IT TO BEEN IN VERY GOOD SHAPE AND WORTHY OF A RESTORATION.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Chevrolet 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.
