2012 Chevrolet Cruze ECO

Manual Transmission, 6-Speed
1.4L Turbo
33,502 miles, 80% Highway

I bought this car in February 2012 because my job at the time required a lot of driving.  I have since been promoted and I am now racking up sky miles instead.  This particularly optioned Cruze ECO is hard to find, and I will list the options that are nearly impossible to get below this description.  This car is great and it is hard to let go, but with the other two paid for, we just don't need it.  It easily gets 45+mpg on the highway at 70-75mph, if you are careful and keep it between 60-65, you will get 50mpg.  City driving is not as good, but at 32-34mpg, I really can't complain. :)  Car is much bigger than it looks, we have 2 kids in car seats that fit comfortably in the back seat and it has a huge trunk.  I put Lamin-X film on the back taillights because I though it made the car look nice and they can easily be peeled off with no damage/residue should the new owner want it off, but I recommend you see it in person first.  I also had a Trifecta "Intelliboost" tune applied at around 1000 miles (after break-in period) and I have been running it ever since without any issues whatsoever.  The tune is active when the cruise control switch is in the off position and the factory tune is engaged when the cruise control switch is in the on position.  It is a night and day difference in power (see dyno graph in pics).  The car as a few chips/scratches that I have captured in the pics, as well as some bumper scuff from a beautiful tire tread thrown from an I-30 18-Wheeler near Little Rock that I just could't avoid.

Hard to find options on this car:

Black Granite Metallic paint
Color Touchscreen with Navigation
Bluetooth and iPhone support (I use my iPhone 5 with Rhapsody, Pandora, TuneIn, iHeart Radio, iTunes, YouTube and Netflix (Audio only, Not while driving, of course!)
Pioneer 9-speaker option, includes center channel speaker in dash and dual subwoofers in back deck.

Standard options include:

Motorized Louvers in lower grill that close at 40mph to deflect airflow and increase fuel mileage
17" ultralight (17lbs) forged factory wheels
Goodyear Assurance low-rolling-resistance tires
Lowered 1" all around from the factory using sport springs - this is 1" lower than standard Cruze (Non-eco models) and was done to increase fuel mileage with the bonus of better ride and handling
Power windows, drivers seat, locks
ABS, Traction Control, Stability Control
6-Speed manual transmission
Factory trunk spoiler

Things I added:

Tinted windows all the way around
Tinted tail lights (with removable Lamin-X Film)
Smoked Chevy badge and trunk chrome (removable)
Full front covered with 3M Clear Bra (VentureShield)
Removed Cruze/ECO badging for a clean look
Trifecta "Intelliboost" tune


Please feel free to ask any questions.  This car is for sale locally as well and can be closed at any time.  The title is held by the bank and when I am paid, I will have title within a week or two (depends on bank) and will send it to the new owner.  Feel free to call my at 501-257-7478 with any questions you may have.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford HQ gets giant solar array, Chevy City Express gets 24 MPG city

Sat, Aug 16 2014

Ford will be building Michigan's largest solar array at its Dearborn headquarters. With funding from DTE Energy, the solar carport will provide covered parking, as well 30 charging stations for electric vehicles. The array is expected to generate 1.13 million kWh per year for Ford's operations, and offset 794 metric tons of carbon emissions. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet announced the fuel economy for the 2015 City Express, at 25 mpg combined. The cargo van is rated at 24 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway. Chevy credits the van's inline four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission for its impressive city mileage. For its customers - which are mainly businesses - "The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business," says Chevrolet's Ed Peper. The City Express starts at $22,950. Read more in the press release below. Engineers at the University of Wisconsin have developed an efficient engine that runs on a diesel-gas blend. The engine, which uses a computer to control the blend proportions, is about 15 percent more efficient than the any diesel engine according to mechanical engineering professor Rolf Reitz. The team has put the experimental reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine in a demonstration car - a 2009 Saturn. "This vehicle can do 50 miles per gallon," says Reitz, who believes the system could be improved further. Read more at Wisconsin Public Radio. The Southeast Alternative Fuel Conference and Expo will take place in October in Raleigh, North Carolina. Held at the NC Clean Energy Technology Center from October 22-24, the event will feature a variety of exhibitors, speakers and, most importantly, alternatively powered vehicles. "The three day conference will be a one-stop shop for fleet and transportation related decision makers to learn about return on investment, efficiency and alternative transportation fuels such as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, propane and natural gas," says Anne Tazewell of the NC Clean Energy Technology Center. If you can't make it to Raleigh for the Expo, you can still enter to win a free two-year lease of a Nissan Leaf at the Center's website. Learn more about the event in the press release, below.

Here are the best-selling cars and trucks from January 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.
