Up for auction today is a very nice example of a 1998 Chevrolet Blazer LS family utility vehicle with 4WD. The vehicle currently has just over 117k miles (that's just 7500 miles a year) which is really low considering it's 15 years old. This is a No-Reserve Auction so the highest bidder takes it home... but you better Buy-It-Now before someone else gets it!!! THE BAD: There are a few small dents no larger than a nickel on the driver's side door, right rear door, and back hatch... and a small plastic piece under the driver's side front bumper spoiler is broken off (hard to see but all are noted in the attached video). The front grill has a crack in it but it's all intact and in place (you have to look specifically for it to see it.) The plastic defrost vent in the dash for the windshield has a crack. The lever to lower the driver's seat back rest is missing, but will try to locate one locally before the end of the auction. THE GOOD: The exterior of the vehicle shows very well with a deep luster and shine in the paint and all chrome sparkles like new. Not so sure what the official name of the color is but it's a light silvery/cinnamon with velour cloth interior to match. All upholstery, carpet, and headliner are clean and stain free (floor mats even look new.) All vinyl on the doors and dash are crack free. All power windows, electric door locks, electric back hatch release, electric mirrors, compass and outside temperature gauge, stereo, buzzers, courtesy lights, tachometer, 4WD, cruise control, speedometer and dash gauges work as they should and there are no idiot lights illuminated on the dash. The vehicle even comes equipped with OnStar though currently not subscribed to. There is no rust what so ever and no cracks or chips in any of the glass. Has a towing hitch with wiring. THE BEST PART: Recent work on the vehicle includes 4 (four) new snow and mud tires- rather aggressive so there is a little road noise from the front tires at highway speeds, new wiper blades front and rear, new four wheel disc brake rotors, calipers, and pads on all four wheels... new front axle wheel bearings both sides, new front sway-bar bushing kit, new brake master cylinder, oil and filter change, A/C recharge (blows cold) and a good hand wash and wax job. In all, over $1700 in maintenance and repairs, so these are expenses you won't have to face in the future. The 4.3 liter V6 engine purrs smoothly and at 55mph only pulls 1450 rpms. The engine should last a long time at this rate and offer pretty good highway mpg to boot. With the on-dash push button 4WD hi/low range and the mud tires, be prepared to go anywhere you want. Automatic tranny shifts smoothly through all gears. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. This vehicle is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early with no notice. This vehicle is 15 years old... it's not new so don't expect it to be flawless (though you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer one.) This vehicle is being sold as is, where is, with no warranty implied. So feel free to come and look it over and take it for a test drive prior to bidding. For more information email me or call 423-253-2200 between 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. daily. Good luck and happy bidding.

Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon get updated tachometers due to graphical error
Sun, Feb 8 2015After James Bearing bought a Chevrolet Colorado, he noticed a discrepancy between the truck's spec sheet and the truck's tachometer: Chevrolet said 3.6-liter V6 in the little pickup produces 305 horsepower at 6,800 rpm, but the the tachometer indicates a redline at 6,500 rpm. So either he wasn't making as much power as he was promised, or the tachometer display was incorrect. Bearing said he asked Chevy about it but got no response. Until now. A General Motors spokesman said the rev limiter is indeed set for 6,800 rpm, but the tach graphics "are slightly off" in the Colorado and the GMC Canyon, and submitted an SAE horsepower certification to back him up. If you're wondering how such a thing got past quality control... well, let's just say you're not alone. GM is going to fix "the graphics on future trucks," which makes it sound like Bearing will just have to learn to live with the indicated redline he's got. He could always pretend he's driving a sleeper, with four more ponies waiting to be unlocked in the danger zone for those who dare.

Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study
Wed, Jul 22 2015The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car. Check out the official release on the 2015 APEAL Study, available below, from JD Power. 2015 U.S. APEAL Study Results The latest safety-related technologies are among the drivers of customer satisfaction with new vehicles, according to the J.D.

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova
Tue, Dec 30 2014Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.
