This is the second attempt to list this fine truck.  The first one listing didn't meet the reserve despite lots of interest.  So here it is again NO reserve!

Hello.  With our boys heading to college, its time to downsize and sell our dependable family SUV.  I have spared no expense maintaining this truck because this SUV hauls my family every day through every kind of weather.  As I'll explain, this truck is in absolutely perfect mechanical condition and should make someone a reliable, affordable vehicle for many years to come.  Pick it up and drive it to the grocery store or anywhere across country with confidence.

The basics:  The Suburban is powered by a 5.3l v8 with automatic transmission.  It has push button four wheel drive with high and low range. We've never towed or plowed with it but it sure has plenty of power. The truck starts in any weather without fail and has never let us down.  I have taken great care of it going above and beyond on maintenance.  I've done the oil and filter changes religiously with premium products. The truck does not smoke, use oil, or leak a drop of any fluids. 

Serviced recently:  Brand new air conditioning compressor, brand new ceramic heavy duty brake pads on all 4 wheels, brand new rotors on all 4 wheels, 4 newer matching goodyear all season tires with 90% tread.  Its super roomy with 3 rows of seats for 9 adults and all your gear.  The double barn doors on the back are a great feature for loading and unloading groceries, sleds, your stuff.

The Good:  Truck is well maintained and has never let us down.  Frame and paint is solid with no rot or rust issues.  It is reliable, roomy, and safe.  The 4x4 system works great and the truck is very sure-footed; she's gotten the family home safely every time through the worst New England blizzards and ice storms.  The GM 5.3l v8 is known to go 3-400,000 miles or more with proper maintenance.   At 150k this truck is still breaking in.  All the glass and paint are in good shape.  The kelly blue book retail value is $8,540.

The Bad:  The passenger side rear seatbelt needs an adjustment as one of our guests pulled it all the way out so the recoil mechanism isn't working.  The driver side rear door panel is loose and needs new fasteners.  The front bench seat is black vinyl and has a tear on the driver side.  The two rear rows of bench seats are tan leather.  There are dings and spills as you would expect from 4 boys and their friends climbing around in the truck.  There is one or two shopping cart dings on the outside.   This won't compete with a prius in gas mileage but I always preferred the tough, large envelope around my family over fuel economy.  That's it.

Please check my feedback and bid with confidence.  This will make you a nice, dependable, safe vehicle for any years to come if you keep up with the maintenance.  There is no shipping for the truck.  There are no warranties on this sale.  Title is clear and in hand.  Buyer will get title and bill of sale. Please be prepared to conclude this transaction within 7 days of auction close. Cash at pickup is strongly preferred though I accept paypal if you want the protections it provides.  You are most welcome to come check out the truck before bidding.

Thank you for checking out this auction.  Good luck bidding.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.

General Motors Recall List

Wed, Oct 22 2014

It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. We used the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall list to compile a snapshot of all the GM vehicles recalled in the last two months. NHTSA also provides a search engine that allows owners to search for recalls on their vehicle. An automotive company must do everything in their power to notify its customers when a recall is issued on a vehicle. If you own any of the following vehicles and you have questions regarding your car, you can contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339. Or check out General Motor's recall site. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.safercar.gov. Here's a brief summery of the other vehicles currently under recall: July 26 – 414,333 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V447000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. Problem: In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position. Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Solution: Dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. July 14 – 16,939 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V341000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured October 18, 2010, to June 2, 2011. Problem: In the affected vehicles, vibrations from the drive shaft may cause the vehicle's roll over sensor to command the roof rail air bags to deploy. Consequence: If the roof rail air bags deploy unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of crash and injury to the occupants.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
