89 Chevy S10 Shortbed 5-speed Pick Up "low Mileage" on 2040-cars
Ulysses, Kansas, United States

Okay
so I’ve got this truck I’m selling;- it’s an ’89 S-10, 2.5 liter 4-cylinder
5-speed, short bed standard cab with 97,000 miles. I bought it last year with a blown head
gasket and some front end damage (bent bumper, hood, grill). My Son and I did a valve job, bolted new metal
on the front, replaced the radiator and battery and have been driving it ever
since. It runs very well, has good
tires, brakes, clutch, glass, tracks nice-n-straight down the road, shifts
good, doesn’t have any funny noises or vibrations and the check engine light is
connected and functions as designed. With that said, it’s a 25 year old truck and although it has very low mileage it’s “been around”. The paint is just okay; it’s not peeling or cracking, it’s just not “nice” nor would it be any better with wax probably? It has a few rust spots (above the pass side rear wheel bottom of the pass-side door, and both rear cab corners), but the doors and tailgate close good, and the glass seals good so my guess is it doesn’t have any hidden major rust underneath nor has it probably ever been wreck other than the front sheet metal. If I was to keep and use this truck as a daily driver, I’d charge the AC, replace the blower motor (squirrel cage doesn't spin), install new exhaust from the catalytic converter back (currently drops in front of the rear axle so it sounds like a “young Man’s truck” :), replace the windshield wiper blades, maybe some carpet over the rubber mat, one of those dash covers that Velcro on, a head liner? and for sure a new media player. But if you need a truck to drive from point A to point B without any frills and minimal difficulty this would work fine for the low mileage, good fuel economy inexpensive truck you’ve been looking for to do just that A $200 deposit is due within 48-hours of closing and balance is due within 7-days. Paypal is preferred but not required and if you have less then a 97% rating or less then 10 transactions please contact me before bidding. I’d
like to sell before I get busy this summer so I have the truck listed both
locally as well as on Ebay. Ask for Chip Thanks

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip
Wed, Jan 21 2015There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.
