2003 CHEVROLET ASTRO EXTENDED BODY  8 PASSENGER VAN

THIS VAN WAS PURCHASED AND HAS LIVED ALL IT'S LIFE IN ARKANSAS WHERE SALT IS ONLY USED TO SEASON FOOD. IT IS 100% RUST-FREE WITH A CLEAN CAR FAX. IT IS A RWD WITH THE VENERABLE 4.3 V6 AND AUTO. IT IS FULLY LOADED WITH: TILT, CRUISE, POWER BRAKES & STEERING, POWER WINDOWS, LOCKS & MIRRORS. IT HAS THREE-ROW SEATING FOR EIGHT WITH REAR HEAT, A/C AND DEFROSTER. IT HAS THE FACTORY AM/FM/CD, LEATHER-WRAP STEERING WHEEL AND AN OVERHEAD CONSOLE THAT HAS DIRECTIONS, TEMPERATURE, MPG AND MILES TO EMPTY, PLUS STORAGE AND MAP LIGHTS.

SAFETY ITEMS INCLUDE DUAL AIRBAGS, ABS, AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS AND AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS (WHEN VAN IS IN MOTION) AND SEATBELTS FOR ALL OCCUPANTS.

EXTERIOR IS THE ORIGINAL WHITE PAINT WITH VINYL FLAG/FLAME GRAPHICS. IT HAS ALL NEW LIGHTS IN FRONT, POP-OUT SIDE WINDOWS, THE OPTIONAL ROOF RACKS, VENT VISORS AND THE VERY DESIRABLE DUTCH DOORS IN THE REAR THAT OPEN THREE WAYS. IT HAS THE NORMAL DINGS YOU WOULD EXPECT WITH AGE & MILEAGE, BUT NO HUGE DENTS AND NO RUST WHATSOEVER. A SMALL AMOUNT OF THE VINYL HAS COME OFF IN THE CREVACES ON THE FRONT DOORS AND IT CAN ALL BE REMOVED EASILY. THERE ARE TWO MINOR PINHEAD SIZE CHIPS IN THE ORIGINAL WINDSHIELD.

THE INTERIOR IS AMAZING. IT HAS TWO CAPTAIN'S CHAIRS AND TWO BENCHES. ALL ARE PERFECT EXCEPT FOR A 1/4" HOLE IN THE MIDDLE BENCH SEAT AND ONE ARMREST DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. THE DASH, LEATHER-WRAP WHEEL, DOOR PANELS, HEADLINER AND CARPETS ARE EXCELLENT. IT EVEN HAS THE ORIGINAL GM BRANDED FLOOR MATS IN PLACE. THERE IS AMPLE STORAGE WTH THREE SIDE COMPARTMENTS, A GLOVE BOX AND OVERHEAD IN THE CONSOLE. THERE ARE TWO POWER PORTS IN FRONT AND ONE IN THE REAR, ALONG WITH TIE-DOWNS. THE TWO BENCH SEATS FOLD FLAT FOR HAULING OR CAN BE COMPLETELY REMOVED IN MINUTES, RESULTING IN 8" OF SPACE.

MECHANICALLY IT IS EXCELLENT, WITH MAINTAINENCE PERFORMED REGULARLY. IT HAS NO LEAKS, SQUEAKS, RATTLES OR SMOKE. THE TIRES ARE AT 50-75% WITH AN ALIGNMENT LAST YEAR. THE FACTORY ALLOY RIMS ARE VERY GOOD AND PROPERLY BALANCED. ALL LIGHTS, SWITCHES, GAUGES AND RADIO OPERATE AS INTENDED AND THE AIR BLOWS COLD, FRONT & REAR. THE JACK & SPARE APPEAR UNUSED.

OVERALL, THIS IS AN ABOVE-AVERAGE EXAMPLE OF THESE VERY POPULAR VANS THAT ARE GETTING HARD TO FIND DUE TO PRODUCTION CEASING IN 2005. WITH AN AVERAGE OF 1000 MILES A MONTH, THE MILES ARE IN LINE. I HAVE TRIED TO REPRESENT THE VEHICLE AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE, HOWEVER IT IS A USED VEHICLE, WITH NO WARRANTY AND WITH BLEMISHES YOU WOULD EXPECT WITH THE AGE & MILES.

TERMS: NO PAYPAL, $500 DEPOSIT WITHIN 72 HRS OF AUCTION CLOSING, BALANCE DUE IN 5 BUSINESS DAYS. IT IS ADVERTISED LOCALLY SO IT MAY BE REMOVED AT ANY TIME. PICK-UP IS BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY, BUT WE WILL WORK WITH YOUR TRANSPORTER.

FINALLY, REMEMBER, A BID CONSTITUTES A LEGAL CONTRACT.  DO NOT BID IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS-EMAIL FIRST.  DO NOT BID IF YOU HAVE ZERO FEEDBACK-EMAIL FIRST.  IF YOU HAVE A RECORD OF NON-PAYMENT DO NOT BID AT ALL. THANK YOU.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video

Mon, Dec 7 2015

With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.

Weekly Recap: Chevy and Alfa plot comeback strategies

Sat, Jun 27 2015

Chevrolet and Alfa Romeo were two of the 20th Century's most iconic automotive brands. Chevy embodied America's post-war power and confidence. Alfa was the definition of the stylish Italian sports car. They reached halcyon heights in the 1950s and '60s, before declining precipitously amid new competition, changing consumer tastes, and uneven corporate management. Both say 2015 is the start of something better, and this week Chevy and Alfa laid out ambitious plans and showcased new cars that they hope will make them more relevant this year, and in the coming years. Each brand sits at its own crossroads, and their paths forward are as different as the Chevy Cruze and the Alfa Romeo Giulia. Chevy is still a sales beast, as evidenced by its volume of 4.8 million vehicles sold around the world last year. Chevy executives are fond of saying one of their cars is sold every seven seconds, which illustrates the strength and reach of a car brand that is the fourth largest in the world. "Make no mistake about it, we are a brand for the people," said General Motors North America president Alan Batey. But he wants consumers to want to buy a Chevy for its design and technology, not simply because it's affordable. That starts with all Chevys now featuring a distinctive a family look, with sporty cues from the Corvette or strong lines that riff on the Silverado pickup. "We want people to fall in lust with our cars," said Mike Pevovar, executive design director for Chevy passenger cars. "That initial emotional attraction has to be right on the exterior, and that's where form comes into play." Chevy is also loading up its cars, like the freshly unveiled 2016 Chevy Cruze, with technology to appeal to a younger crowd that prizes connectivity. The Cruze will offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with its MyLink infotainment system, and OnStar with 4G LTE and wifi. Seeking out younger buyers is also sound business practice: Millennials now outnumber Baby Boomers as the largest single age group in the United States. Younger buyers also can improve a brand's image, which is another area where Chevy would like to improve. Chevy ranks 82nd on Interbrand's Best Global Brand's list, behind 11 other automakers. Apple is No. 1. "We need our own variation of the Genius Bar," Batey said. 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia View 3 Photos Meanwhile, Alfa is in different shape.
