Chevrolet Silverado LT (K1500) 4WD NO RESERVE!!! Features:
The Particulars: The above is a brief description of our 1997 Chevrolet Silverado LT (K1500) extended cab truck. It is a "local truck" to our home town in Chester County PA. We have used it as a farm truck, as did the first owner, who bought it new. It is a great runner, very strong, and has pulled our 2 horse gooseneck trailer with ease around here and to North Carolina and back. I'd give it a "fair condition" rating (see below for more details). In that condition, the Kelley Blue Book value is right around $4,000.00. I never list with reserves, so if you snag this truck for the minimum bid of $1,499.00, you will have gotten one heck of a good deal. Cosmetics are not essential to farm trucks! This one has spent most of its life with its tailgate down, which is a good thing, because the tailgate is in rough condition. I backed the lowered tailgate into our horse trailer a couple years ago, and I suspect my predecessor did so once or twice as well. It has been straightened enough that it is functional. The rear step bumper is starting to rust through, but that is the only area of rust through on the truck (see below aboout the cab corners). The rest of the body is in good shape, no major dents, scrapes, etc., but certainly scratches and dings which are normal for a vehicle of this age & mileage. The interior is dirty, as you can see in the pictures, but it could be cleaned up fairly easily and should look presentable. There are no tears in the upholstry, and other than a crack in the dash, the interior should be in physically good shape (again, just needs to be cleaned). The good news: Many Chevy / GMC trucks this age are rusted through at the cab corners. The cab corners on this truck were replaced two years ago, and the paint was matched very well. There are a couple of other minor mechanical "quirks" - a slight leak in a power steering line, an issue with a door switch which makes the interior lights stay on (I pulled the fuse a couple years ago), leaky AC compressor which needs charging annually, etc. The airbag light is "on" (which means the airbags need to be "inspected"), and the "check engine" light comes on intermittently. I had the code read on the check engine light a couple weeks ago and it was related to an O2 sensor. These trucks are known for this sort of thing - we put few enough miles on it that it does not require an annual emissions inspection in Pennsylvania, so I have always just let that light go... Also, (as noted above), I replaced all four tires and the spare last fall and they have (maybe) a couple hundred miles on them. Additional recent repairs: Complete fuel pump assembly two years ago, new spark plugs, coil wire, plug wires, distributor cap & rotor, ignition module and drive belt earlier this month (plus an oil change). We knew we were selling the truck and wanted to feel confident that it was in good running order for its new owner. As you can see from the above, I have gone out of my way to point out the "flaws" here. If you have any questions, please call me at 610 806 3954. Also, you are encouraged to come see / test drive the truck. I am not a mechanic, and nothing you see above should be construed as a mechanic's opinion. If you would like to have your mechanic look at the truck, I would encourage that as well. There are NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED on this vehicle. the vehicle is being sold with a clear title, as is, where is. Again, you are encouraged to come have a look, or have your mechanic do so, please call me at 610 806 3954 10% of the proceeds from this listing will go to the American Cancer Society... Thanks for looking and again, please don't hesitate to call me with any questions, etc. at 610 806 3954.

Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady
Mon, Nov 3 2014Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon. For now, we await your comments, below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
GM recalls 83,572 SUVs for ignition switch issue
Sun, Jan 4 2015General Motors is recalling 83,572 SUVs from the 2011 and 2012 model years over a potential ignition lock actuator issue. In affected vehicles, the actuator isn't the right size, which could cause the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position, and then either due to a jarring event or a "cool interior temperature" the ignition could switch back to the "Accessory" position. Doing so would cause a loss of power assistance and the airbags might not deploy. This is a different ignition issue than the one that's been ongoing for the past year. GM said it expects that less than 500 vehicles suffer from the problem, but that the pool could include vehicles from 2007 through to 2014 that have already been fixed, but with defective parts. The 2011-2012 SUVs included in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notice: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado HD, Silverado LD, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra LD, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles. GM will notify owners and dealers will inspect the ignition lock housing to see if it needs a free replacement. RECALL Subject : Ignition Lock Actuator may Bind Report Receipt Date: DEC 30, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V827000 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado HD, Silverado LD, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra LD, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the ignition lock actuator may bind, making turning the key difficult or causing the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position. CONSEQUENCE: If stuck in the "Start" position, the ignition may suddenly snap back into the "Accessory" position, causing a loss of engine, steering, and braking power, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. If the vehicle is in a crash, the air bags may not deploy, increasing the risk of occupant injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the ignition lock housing, as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14696 for the original equipment, and 14912 for the service replacement parts.
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. Via Motors will launch the production of an electric Chevrolet Silverado. The company will convert the pickups into range-extended EVs at its assembly line in Mexico, near GM's Silverado plant. Via has the capacity to produce 10,000 vehicles per year at its Mexico facility. Via Motors Chairman (and former GM Vice Chairman during the early days of the Chevrolet Volt project) Bob Lutz wants to help make EVs mainstream in America, and believes that requires electrifying pickups and SUVs. Read more in the press release below. Bob Lutz to Announce Production Launch of the Electrified Chevy Silverado BY VIA Motors Media access to Bob Lutz, former Vice-Chairman of General Motors and father of the Chevy Volt Bob Lutz is now Chairman of VIA Motors who builds the "Volt Style" extended range electric drive system for the Silverado, the Express Van and is working on the SUV's (Tahoe, Suburban) 5 years in development.
