For sale is a white 1997 Tahoe LS 2 door. I believe I am only the second owner of this truck, of which I have owned since April of 2008. I purchased the truck with 95,000 miles and it now has 162,000 miles. The majority of those miles are all highway between a 50 mile round-trip work commute, upstate NY and the Jersey Shore. The truck has a gray cloth interior with a split bench seat. Since I have owned the truck I have had the following work done:

Rebuilt Transmission at 95k by A-1 Award Transmission in Huntington Station, NY

Entire new brake system including:
-new brake lines
-new calipers
-new wheel cylinders
-new rear brake shoes
New Intake Manifold Gaskets

Within the past 2 years the following has been done:
-new oil cooler line seals
-new spark plugs, rotor, distributor cap, ignition wires and fuel filter
-new battery

Within the past year the following has been done:
-new fuel pump (2 months old)
-new ignition switch
-new Cooper Discoverer 265/75-16 tires (approximately 5000 miles on them)
-new thermostat and fan belt
-new front brake pads

What it needs: Although the truck has A/C it does not hold a charge for longer than a few months. I have dyed the lines but have never really followed up to see where the leak is. So you are either going to have to service the A/C system or just charge it in the beginning of the summer. Also, the U-joints are going to need to be replaced at some point in the future. I just have not had time to get to it and they don't seem to be getting worse.

As you can see from the pictures the overall appearance of the truck is very clean considering it is almost 17 years old. The truck runs absolutely great and set aside from the normal Tahoe problems I have never had any real problems with it. The Vortec 5.7 burns about a quart of oil maybe every 3 months. The interior is also in great shape and everything is there, including the factory original spare tire. Everything works including power drivers seat. 

The 4x4 is electronic push button shift and works perfectly. I use it in the snow without any problems and to tow a 26' boat 2 times per year.

If there are any specific pictures you want to see please let me know.  I also encourage you to come see the truck in person prior to bidding. 

My reason for selling is I got a great deal on a new Ram 1500. The truck is located in Massapequa, New York, about 40 miles east of NYC. I will be around in the evening to show and test drive the truck. 

I am not looking to store the truck for any time so please be prepared to purchase within 7 days of auction close.  I accept cash or cashiers check, no personal checks.

Please call or text 516.606.9641 with any questions. Thanks for looking...

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

GM issues stop-sale for 3 SUVs over incorrect MPG rating

Fri, May 13 2016

This week, GM sent a memo to Chevy, GMC, and Buick dealers to tell them to stop selling three SUVS. The 2016 Chevy Traverse, the GMC Acadia, and the Buick Enclave all have EPA window stickers that show higher fuel economy ratings than the vehicles actually have. Unlike other recent – and very public – fuel economy ratings problems from VW and Mitsubishi, it doesn't seem like GM did anything wrong with the testing for these vehicles, it just misprinted the labels. New labels are being printed and should arrive at dealerships this weekend and early next week. After that, the SUVs will be able to be sold and delivered again. The official fuel economy rating for the three SUVs are all the same. The correct numbers for the all-wheel drive versions are 17 miles per gallon combined, 15 city, and 22 highway. The stickers say the SUVs get 17/24/19. The front-wheel driver models were also incorrectly labeled, and the total number of affected vehicles is 59,823. In the memo, GM said the problem was caused by an "inadvertent error," Automotive News says. GM is working with the EPA to solve the issue. We have asked GM for a comment on the mistake and will update this post if we hear back. Related Gallery 2013 GMC Acadia View 16 Photos News Source: Automotive News – sub. req.
