Riverside, California, United States
|
Up for auction is a very clean 90 K5 Blazer. It is currently being used as an everyday driver. All maintenance has been kept up and are all current. It has the factory throttle body injected 5.7 350 engine. 700R4 4 speed automatic transmission. Just did major tune up recently. Including spark plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap and rotor. Alternator and starter are new. Battery is about a year old. Coolant temp and MAP sensors are new. Fresh 5W30 Mobil One synthetic oil change. New transmission filter and fluid. Still has the factory front and rear axles with the 3.73 gears and rear limited slip. New air filter and fuel filter. The AC still has the R12 freon and I had it repaired and recharged. It will freeze you out. Rear brakes, drums, hardware and wheel cylinders were replaced. Front rotors and brake pads are new. Tires have over 85 percent life left on them. They are 33X12.50R15 Goodyear MT/R tires mounted on American Racing 15X10 black steel wheels. Power steering gear box has a slow leak. Suspension is also new with 4" Procomp lift. Front spring was replaced with Procomp lift spring and rear is 4" iron block. Steering are was replaced and body mounts were replaced with Energy Suspension bushings. All shocks are new with the lift. Has factory dual front shock set up. Procomp factory replacement steering stablizer. The road manner is excellent. The Offroad capability is also surprisingly well. Took it rock crawling up in Big Bear CA month ago and had no problems what so ever.
The exterior was repainted in the factory red color because the original paints clear coat was coming off. I had a body shop strip it down and respray it. The top I had painted satin black because I think it looks better then the red. The body is rust free and strait. Even the doors line up perfectly and shut like new. All the weather stripping was replaced after the paint work was done. The windshield is also brand new. The grille was showing its age so I had them paint it satin black. I think it looks cleaner then the black and chrome. The bumpers are still factory and have some dings here and there but look okay from 5 feet. Was thinking about having them redone in satin black also. I just had a class IV hitch installed with trailer brakes and 7 pin connector for towing. The interior is mostly original. The carpet is brand new replacement. the factory side panels in the rear were cardboard and the material was looking worn so I had new ones made and had it covered in faux suede. The doors also have the same material in the inserts. It looks great and custom. The headliner was replaced in the past. It is still good. All the trim is in good shape. The dash pad is the only bad thing, it has a few cracks. The radio is the factory installed tape player with the eq. It still works, just use the tape adapter for my ipod. I changed all the dash lights to smd led bulbs and it looks awsome at night. Nice and bright, even a hid blue color. The driver bottom seat it starting to tear, the other seats are good, I just had them cleaned. The fuel guage doesn't work correctly, was told it needs a sending unit. I might have it repaired before the end of auction. All depending on time. I just keep it full and watch the trip odo. I'm not really wanting to sell it, but other priorities have come up. I have put a lot of money into it and love driving it. I don't want to sell it but life makes us do things we don't like anyway. I have always wanted a K5 Blazer and now I have to sell it. The reserve is a lot lower then most being sold. If you have any questions about the truck please let me know. I drove it to Salt Lake and back 3 months ago. Got 15 mpg. |

Recharge Wrap-up: EVs poll well in Portland, Tesla seeks office space
Tue, Aug 5 2014In a poll of drivers in Portland, more than 80 percent said they would be driving an EV in the next 10 years if they weren't already. The poll was small and not scientific, with just 218 votes cast, but it does reflect a slice of a certain population with changing attitudes toward electric mobility, and 80 percent is an impressive figure. Additionally, 43 percent of respondents planned to have an EV in the next five years, and only 18 percent said they prefer gasoline-powered vehicles. With EVs in many ways repeating the adoption process that hybrids went through a decade ago, the five- or ten-year timeframe for more widespread use seems only natural.

His Chevrolet Volt has been ticketed for parking six times since he took office. Granted, those street-sweeping signs are tough to keep track of, but his car has been photographed blocking at a bus stop while grabbing a burrito (who hasn't sinned in the name of a delicious burrito?), and was even caught parked in a crosswalk. The tickets were all dismissed. Read more from the SF Gate. Tesla is looking for office space in Silicon Valley. As the electric car company continues to search for a place to build its $4- to $5-billion battery Gigafactory, it also needs some real estate to expand its operations near its Palo Alto home. Tesla has expanded from 3,000 to 6,000 California-based employees since the end of 2012, and plans to add 500 more by the end of the year. It is currently looking for 200,000 to 300,000 square feet of office space close to its Fremont factory, according to sources in the real estate industry.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW cars to share i tech, Jordan to build solar EV charging network
Wed, Jan 14 2015Jordan is looking to promote EVs and build a solar charging network. The country is waiving import tariffs on electric cars, and is spending $120 million on solar chargers. It plans to build 3,000 charging stations, along with 30 MW of solar power. Some chargers will be powered by solar canopies, while others will get electricity from nearby solar farms. Jordan's solar plan should also help to lessen the amount of energy it needs to import from nearby countries. Read more from Navigant Research, or at Green Car Reports. BMW's mainstream cars will benefit from technology borrowed from the i3 and i8, according to BMW sales head Ian Robertson. In an interview with Automotive News, Robertson said that next-generation cars will use carbon fiber more extensively, and that more cars will get plug-in technology. He said that about half of i3 buyers opt for the range extender and added that it is incorrect to refer to a range-extended electric vehicle as a plug-in hybrid. Read more at Automotive News. The ethanol market should remain healthy despite falling oil prices. While cheap oil could drive down ethanol prices, demand still remains due to the federal biofuels standard. Additionally, ethanol producers may find it cheaper to ship their products as domestic oil production drops and railroad shipping opens up. Ethanol byproducts like distillers grains continue to sell, and foreign demand continues as other countries impose their own renewable fuel standards. Read more at Yahoo News.

GM re-recalls 11k SUVs
Tue, Oct 13 2015General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.
