1998 Chevrolet Blazer Ls Sport Utility 4-door 4.3l 4wd on 2040-cars
Tellico Plains, Tennessee, United States
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.

GM trucks get hybrid versions, but you'll probably never see one
Thu, Feb 25 2016A few years ago, General Motors sold hybrid versions of its Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups. They weren't very good, using GM's old two-mode hybrid system that resulted in only negligible fuel economy gains. But GM's trying again, launching eAssist models of the 2016 Silverado and Sierra that are said to offer 2-mpg improvements in city, highway, and combined fuel economy ratings. Problem is, you probably won't be able to get one. Only 700 eAssist trucks will be made for the 2016 model year – 500 Silverados and 200 Sierras. When you consider that GM moved 824,683 examples of its light-duty pickups in 2015, this small run represents 0.08-percent of all Silverado/Sierra production, and GM says it "will monitor the market closely ... and adjust as appropriate moving forward." But that's not the only limitation. The eAssist trucks will only be sold through California dealers. For the Silverado, eAssist can only be optioned on the 1500 Crew Cab 1LT 2WD model, and for the Sierra, the fuel-saving technology is solely available on the 1500 SLT Crew Cab 2WD model with the SLT Premium Plus package. Granted, in terms of the Sierra, that means you get niceties like LED headlights and taillights, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bose premium audio, heated seats and steering wheel, lane keep assist, and more. In the trucks, eAssist combines a small electric motor and 0.45-kWh battery pack with the pickups' 5.3-liter V8. GM estimates total output of 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque – no more horsepower than the non-eAssist trucks, but three more pound-feet of torque. GM says the eAssist trucks can tow up to 9,400 pounds, and the battery only adds 100 pounds to the trucks' weight. The electric motor provides 13 hp and 44 lb-ft of torque for a boost of acceleration off the line, or during passing. It also allows the engine to run in four-cylinder mode for longer periods of time. eAssist uses regenerative braking to help power onboard electrical systems, and adds start/stop to the powertrain. Finally, the so-equipped trucks have a six-percent improvement in aerodynamics, thanks to a soft tonneau cover and active grille shutters in the front fascia. Great news is, the eAssist option is relatively inexpensive, only costing $500. But good luck getting your hands on one.
MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon
Sat, Jun 20 2015MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.
Weekly Recap: Lincoln Continental serves up the style, Cadillac CT6 delivers the substance in New York
Sat, Apr 4 2015Lincoln and Cadillac grabbed the spotlight this week at the New York Auto Show in a dramatic fashion that evoked the brands' glory days. America's two luxury carmakers went toe-to-toe with their glittering reveals and plans for ambitious expansion. Both were selling their technology, style and the promise of a better future. Cadillac vs. Lincoln. At the Javits Center, 2015 seemed a lot like 1956. Neither company was interested in drawing comparisons with the other, which is fair, and accurate. They're in vastly different places in terms of sales and the pace of their turnarounds, but they hope to reach the same eventual destination at the pinnacle of the luxury-car world. Lincoln used the element of surprise to great effect with the Continental concept. A production version is still at least a year away, and the company was vague on details. Officially, we don't even know if it is front- or rear-wheel drive, though speculation abounds. Who cares? The seats can be adjusted 30 ways! The Continental also showed off a bold chrome grille that will be the new face of Lincoln. The blue bomber also rolled on blinged-out 21-inch polished aluminum wheels, used a 3.0-liter EcoBoost engine and had huge LED head lights with "laser-assisted" high beams. All of this resulted in almost blinding attention. The concept drew rave reviews, stirred controversy with Bentley designers who argued Lincoln ripped them off, and most importantly, pointed a way forward for the newly determined brand that hopes to compete with Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Cadillac and Lexus. View 32 Photos Meanwhile, Cadillac showed the CT6, a finished product that will top its range and is loaded with the best and latest technologies General Motors has at its disposal. With production starting late this year, Cadillac had more specifics at the ready. Engines? Cadillac has a couple V6s and a turbo four for sure. It's working on a hybrid, and has considered a V-Series variant. It's based on a new rear-wheel-drive, aluminum-intensive chassis called Omega, features an advanced collision-mitigation system with automatic braking and has a cabin that's laden with "leathers, exotic woods and carbon fiber." It will be assembled at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck factory and goes on sale next year. At this point, Cadillac is more than willing to talk about every except for the price. The devil was not in the details for Cadillac, as evidenced by the CT6. But it wasn't for Lincoln either.
