Below are a list of options and details. Any questions please contact me.
This van was bought new buy me in March of 2003. Fully loaded with just about every option, and then some. I am the original and only owner. Driven only by me, not my guys. The oil was changed every 3-5 thousand miles. 90% of oil changes were done by same shop. im almost positive he can print that out for proof. Tranny fluid was replaced twice. (synthetic) Rear fluid replaced twice (synthetic) Motor oil also synthetic. I washed and cleaned this van on a daily basis since new. I received daily compliments on how sharp the van looks. You will not find a better van of the same year and mileage.
This work truck drives down the road very good and is comfortable to drive.
2003 was the year it was redesigned. Previous ones cannot compare to this generation van. If you look up reviews on the 2003 express 3500 you will not be disappointed. its been given close to 5 out of 5 stars. It certainly has the wear and tear of 2003 work vehicle. This van was a hard worker and never let me down. ever! It never left me on the side of the road. None of thewear and tear is out of the ordinary. But if your going to point out every imperfection this van is not for you. goto chevy and buy a new. Dont waste my time. id rather keep it. It was driven up until i got my new truck a year ago. its been sitting since. Except for a little drive every once in a while. I even changed the oil before i stopped driving it. The only reason i stopped driving it is because i bought a new truck. Not because of any issues with the truck. Unfortunatley it doesnt look as good as it did when i drove it everyday. But like i said, for the mileage and amount of work i did out of this truck you will not be dissapointed. But far from perfect.
I replaced alot parts on this van. alot i have reciepts for. And alot of repairs i do not have receipts.
you cant walk out of the dealer with this van for less then $28,000-$30,000.
It has $3,000 in dealer options. Which are:
1. Express Access
2. Express Access plus
3.Locking rear diff. (it is an animal in the snow. you will not get stuck)
3.Captain seats. (drive side has big tear in it where you sit. still comfortable)
4.Vinyl floor in the front.
5. 9,600 gvw
6. Side cargo Doors
7. 373 gears
8. Chrome Accessory package (halogeb head lamps. not the ugly black ones) chrome front and rear grill.
The Express Access is a MANUFACTURE installed option. The side panels of the van open with remote. One of the Best features ever designed on a van if your in the service business. You can access all your stuff from the outside. Contractors use to drull at this option when we were on job. The doors do new shocks. you have to lift them up by hand.
It has the tow Package with hitch. I also recently had someone re wire the trailer wiring with a 7 pin plug. it also had electric brake set up installed. Never used. something was wrong with the brake controller and i just never used. All i towed was a very light 5x9 sometimes.
i had the system one racks installed. Thats about $800.00 new. Yes it has the built in tie down winches. I never had to look for a bungee cord.
This van has brand new 245 75 16 atz all terrain tires. Brand New!! Almost $800.00
I had an alarm put in with remote start. Very nice in the winter months.
Which reminds me, this van has never left the yard without being warmed up since i had the remote start installed. it was installed sometime in 2003.
After marke stero with fosgate amp, 10’ sub and pioneer flip up tv navigation. the whole stereo i think is shot. the radio barely works, so im not sure about the amp and sub. it might or might not work. but it will be in there.
billet grill also installed. with a lund visor and bug shield.
Not that long ago i had the whole exhaust replaced with a original equitment.
In December of 2011 mileage 200000 i had the following work done. I have the reciept. Remember th van is somewhere around 203,000 miles.

New exhaust system. Dont remember when, i did it. lost receipt.
but it was a oem rplacement. About a thousand installed
i put a brand new battery in the van today 8/3/2013
van was just inspected in ny.
Im sure there are things i am forgetting.
Its in great shape. Looks very good going down the road and pulling in your customers driveway or on the job site. Not perfect.
It Needs a wind shield because it has a crack across it. your glass insurance should cover it for free. if not, i can have it done through my ins before it goes off the road for the cost of my deductable which you will pay for. but it will be on my time. i would also need a deposit from you if i did that.
The side cargo door hinge needs some attention. the hinges get frozen and become diffucult to open one of the doors. the radio is probably shot. it plays music but didnt hold up well.
There were factory installed lights installed throughout the van. most of them broke from materials. plugs are there. youcan get new lights if you want.
drive seat has a tear.
and there might be one or 2 other very small not important issues. not as important as all the new parts.
i think it needs the neutral safety switch. ill explain.
the lettering also has to come off before the truck leaves the yard. the vinyl should come off no problem with a little heat. i can help with that.
like i said, in this price range, and make and model you will not find a better van with this mileage. the motor sounds like it can go another 100k
any used van can be risky. and any thing can go wrong with a high mileage van. But if this is your budget, this is your work truck. it is ready togo and will pay for itself first week. i would rather this van with 200k miles then a 1500 series or even 3500 series that has not been maintained with 100k miles.
Please be a serious buyer if you inquire. the history of the truck is documented. The price i am asking is $6,500.00 I dont want to stray to far from that number. please no UNREASONABLE OFFERS! I would rather keep it.
I was so happy with this van, i ordered the exact same one factory direct fully loaded. it did not come ontime because of a recall on the pitman arm. so i ended up in a chevy silverado 3500 utility body. I regret not waiting for the van. The van cost me $30,000 just to get it out of the dealer. the new ones upgraded like mine i believe are almost $38,000-$40,000 out the door.
Thank you for looking,
Jason,

GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.

Opel Ampera-e brings a Bolt of EV driving to Europe
Fri, Feb 12 2016The Chevrolet Bolt will take a trip across the Atlantic in 2017 to become Europe's Opel Ampera-e. General Motors won't release any specs for the foreign version yet, but these photos suggest very minor styling tweaks to the upper level of the grille and to the hatchback to add the appropriate brand emblems. We would expect the same electric motor with 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque and 60-kWh battery as the US model, too. However, the 200-mile range number might change, but only because of the differences in European testing. GM CEO Mary Barra announced the Ampera-e at the CAR Symposium in Bochum, Germany. "GM and Opel have always been convinced that electric cars will play a defining role in future mobility. The game-changing technology of the Ampera-e is a significant step toward realizing that vision," she said. The Ampera-e is also proof that General Motors loves confusing naming for its green models. If the Volt and Bolt aren't perplexing enough, the Ampera-e is just one letter off from the Ampera – the previous-gen Volt in Europe. GM no longer sells the range-extended vehicle there, so at least both names can't be in showrooms simultaneously. However, the similar monikers still might confuse some customers who think the new EV hatchback is closely related to the old sedan. Related Video: OPEL GROUP ANNOUNCES GAME-CHANGING AMPERA-e BATTERY ELECTRIC CAR New battery electric vehicle will break down barriers to electric mobility Five-door, five-seat Ampera-e will have longer range than most electric cars Fun to drive, outstanding connectivity and affordably priced Russelsheim. Opel Group will launch a revolutionary new battery electric car next year, as the company continues the biggest, most far-reaching model offensive in its history with 29 new models between 2016 and 2020. The new five-door, five seat will be called "Ampera-e". It will not only have a longer range on a full charge than most electric cars, it will also be affordably priced. Building on the electrification expertise established with the original Ampera, which set the benchmark for modern electric cars in 2011, the new Ampera-e combines innovative electric-mobility with state-of-the-art connectivity and exciting driving dynamics. Announcing the Ampera-e today at the CAR Symposium in Bochum, Germany, GM Chairman & CEO Mary Barra said: "GM and Opel have always been convinced that electric cars will play a defining role in future mobility.
GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem
Wed, Mar 9 2016The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.
