Blazer Chalet Camper On 1985 Chevy Blazer Cucv Diesel on 2040-cars
Oregon, Wisconsin, United States
|
Friends,
This is the nicest vehicle I've ever owned. Unfortunately, it's not so practical for toting around kids in car seats, so it's time for me to send it on to its next happy owner. I bought the Chalet camper shell on it's original factory chassis about four years ago. That chassis was tired, so about 2 years ago I bought the current chassis, a former Air Force CUCV. The CUCV had been upgraded with power leather seats, a CD stereo, new carpet, headliner and dash pad by its previous owner. I swapped the camper on and have been using it as my daily driver ever since. As an ASE master tech, I like to keep my stuff nice. In the time that I've owned the chassis, the following work has been performed: New master cylinder New front brake pads New rear shocks New steering stabilizer Four new balljoints New steering knuckle greaseable universal joints, seals, wheel bearings repacked New rear driveshaft greaseable universal joints New power steering return line New engine oil cooler lines New radiator New thermostat New mufflers and tailpipes New dual group 31 batteries New alternator New Belts New Optima deep cycle camper battery New glow plugs New glow plug relay Transmission overhauled by professional trans rebuilder New flexplate New Trailer hitch and pigtail New Potable water pump in the camper Probably more that I'm not able to think of. Receipts available upon request. Additionally, I've added a small inverter to run the installed television and a large inverter to run the APU air conditioning and electric heat (10,000 BTU A/C, 14,000 BTU Heat). The heat and A/C can also run off of shoreline power when it is available, so there is no need to run the engine to air condition the camper. This inverter acts as a charger for the starting batteries when plugged into the shoreline. The Chalet has a built in charger for the deep cycle battery. Because I live in the frozen tundra, I've also added battery heaters, an engine oil heater and an engine coolant heater. The truck also comes with a custom fabricated cold weather grill cover and a warm weather bug screen. The truck includes a Margaritaville tailgating grill, which was gutless from the factory, so I've upgraded it with a variable pressure propane regulator that can make it roar like a jet engine when you really need to cook. Because this chassis is near mint I've also applied POR 15 to the bottom of the truck to prevent rusting. In short, I really hate to see this one go, but it's not practical for me any more. As always, my walk away guarantee applies - if you win the auction and the vehicle is not exactly as I've described it, you walk away - no questions asked. Please feel free to call me with any questions. Randy (608) 209-7706 |

2019 Chicago Auto Show Truck Roundup: Toyota, Ford, Chevy and Ram bring it
Thu, Feb 7 2019The 2019 Chicago Auto Show features an array of heavy-duty trucks, smaller trucks, other kinds of trucks, and well, more trucks. That means new versions of the 2020 Chevy Silverado Heavy Duty and 2020 Ford F-150 Super Duty, a refreshed 2020 Toyota Tacoma and a trick tailgate on the 2019 Ram 1500. Sound a little crazy? Morgan Stanley research says 68 percent of passenger vehicles sold in the United States last year were classified as light trucks. So actually, bring on the trucks! Here's some impressions on the Chicago reveals, plus our take on the 2020 Subaru Legacy sedan. — Toyota updated the 2020 Tacoma with some light but useful enhancements. An improved infotainment has new audio features and larger screens. The grilles and wheels are different, but nothing drastic. Toyota still offers nice differentiation across the Tacoma lineup, and the design tweaks are subtle but thoughtful. Toyota tends to stretch out the Tacoma's generations, so it's wise to keep modifying and iterating to keep pace in this competitive segment. — Staying with Toyota, the Land Cruiser Heritage Edition is a legit special model that fans of this historic nameplate will appreciate. An anchor of the Toyota line in the United States since 1958, the Land Cruiser's roots date to Toyota's 1951 BJ Series military vehicle. Two colors, Midnight Black and Blizzard Pearl, are exclusive to this model and look slick against the blacked-trimmed grille and lightly bronzed wheels. Inside, bronze stitching is used on the steering wheel, seats, center console and other parts. The best part? Land Cruiser spelled out in script on the rear pillar. It's a limited model (1,200 units) and pricing isn't out yet, but that badge is probably why you buy this SUV. — The 2020 Chevy Silverado HD gets imposing looks that differentiate it from the light-duty range, an eye-popping max towing capability of 35,500 pounds and some updated powertrain elements. A new gas-fed V8 that serves as the entry point is one of the highlights, and the 6.6-liter mill makes 401 hp and 464 lb-ft, up significantly over the old 6.0-liter. There's also a new Allison 10-speed transmission teaming with the Duramax diesel to achieve that lofty max towing figure. With an updated trailering system and a larger cabin, the Silverado HD range is comprehensively remade to fight Ram and Ford. — The 2020 Ford Super Duty is also redone, and like the Chevy line, it gets a new gas V8 checking in at 7.3 liters.
Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla P85D upgrades coming soon, lease a Chevy Volt for $149 a month
Wed, Dec 31 2014CarCharging has raised $6 million from shareholders and has restructured to save cash. The EV charging company plans to expand further in 2015 - with an eye toward achieving profitability - in part by investing in technology and "unlocking the value of our significant equipment inventory," says CarCharging CEO Michael D. Farkas. The group expects to reduce administrative costs by 40 percent, and has hired an interim Chief Financial Officer to help carry out its plans for growth. CarCharging raised the cash through offering convertible preferred stock to its shareholders, whom Farkas thanked "for their passion and patience." Read more in the press release below. Rydell Chevrolet in Los Angeles is offering Chevrolet Volt leases for $149 per month. In a video ad, Rydell offers the Volt for $169 a month with $3,390 due at signing, but another ad shows the offer at $149 a month with $3,550 down or $248 per month with $0 down. Rydell Chevrolet will ship the car anywhere in the lower 48 states. It also appears they offer cupcakes. See Rydell's video below, or read more at Inside EVs. Tesla will upgrade the Model S P85D with higher performance and top speed. The free update, which is due "in the next few months" according to a statement from Tesla, will raise the electronically limited top speed from 130 to 155 miles per hour. "Additionally, an over-the-air firmware upgrade to the power electronics will improve P85D performance at high speed above what anyone outside Tesla has experienced to date," Tesla says. The update will be available for the lifetime of the car, which includes subsequent owners. Read more at Green Car Reports. Car Charging Group Completes $6 Million Capital Raise Concurrently Enacts Restructuring Actions to Reduce Cash Burn MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Dec. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Car Charging Group, Inc.

Nissan Leaf, Chevy Volt sales both down in June
Wed, Jul 1 2015The best news you can slice out of today's sales reports for June 2015 is that things have to get better at some point. Most likely, sales of the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt will see a big increase once the second-generation models of both vehicles arrive (the Volt later this year and the Leaf, well, at some point after that). For now, though, the best-selling EVs in the US are both suffering compared to where the numbers were at last year. The numbers are also suffering compared to last month, which was the best of the year so far for both vehicles. Looking just at June, though, Leaf sales totaled 2,074 units, down 11.6 percent from a year ago (the EV sold 2,347 units in June 2014). The world's best-selling EV is now down 22.9 percent for the year so far (12,736 in 2014 vs. 9,816 in 2015). Things are a bit worse over at Chevy, where news about the pretty-much-better-in-all-ways second-gen Volt is coming out with great frequency. Nonetheless, people are still buying the outgoing Volt, snapping up 1,225 units in June. That's down 31.1 percent from the 1,777 sold in June 2014. So far in 2015, the Chevy has sold 5,622 Volts, a drop of 34.7 percent from the 8,615 Volts sold in the first six months of 2014. As always, we're working on our full tally of green car sales for June and will bring that to you shortly. For now, discuss the sales of these two plug-in pioneers in our Comments, below.
