1984 GMC High Sierra 1500, regular cab short bed 4x4.
The A/C and Cruise Control still work and best of all it only has 117k original miles. It has the original 5.0 liter 305 4 barrel quadrajet that has never been modified and complete new dual exhaust that isn't loud. It runs very smooth. It is an automatic with overdrive. Excellent tires.
In 2010 I had the paint redone and spared no expense. I replaced the tail lights, head lights, rear bumper, grill and hood emblems, door mirrors, tool box, tailgate, and door seals. I'm sure there's more that I can't remember. All parts came from LMC Truck and Classic Industries. It turned out very well. It has power windows and locks with new switches on drivers door, cruise control works and has a new switch, and a new tinted sliding rear window. All the weather strip rubber was replaced as well as the windshield chrome trim and rubber seal. All fluids have been changed including the transmission fluid and filter, both front and rear diff fluids, and the transfer case oil. The interior is in good condition overall for a 29 year old truck. The door panels are a bit faded and there is a crack in the center of the dash. The seat is in good condition with no holes tears or rips. I replaced both fuel tanks. I replaced the tool box about a year ago and it has a spray in bed liner. It has a receiver trailer hitch with 5 pin adapter. The body is excellent and the frame and undercarriage is extremely clean. Truck has never been off road and is just as clean underneath as on top. There is no rust on the body or frame. It has an aftermarket stereo with an amplifier under the dash. The floor rubber mat is new.
The passenger window motor still works but is slow. There is a puff of white smoke at start up if the truck as been sitting a long time and the gas gauge needle only goes up to 1/2 full, but shows accurately as the level goes down past half full through to the empty mark. I guess it is a bad ground on the sending unit that I must not have grounded properly when I installed the new tanks. Otherwise I'm not aware of any mechanical issues that need to be fixed. I have driven the truck from Virginia Beach to NYC, then Albany NY and back with no problems at all. Steering is tight, brakes are new and I'd trust this truck to drive anywhere. I always run premium fuel in it.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
Would you pay $17 a month to give your older Ford connectivity?
Fri, Mar 30 2018When it was first introduced in 2007, there was nothing like the original Ford Sync system, since it allowed car owners to connect and use a portable device better than anything that came before it. And because it was a brought-in/tethered and software-based system, Sync leveraged a device's connectivity and was easily updated. It took competitors awhile to catch up: Toyota Entune wasn't available until 2011, and Chevy MyLink didn't roll out until 2012. But now Ford is the one playing catchup since it stuck with the brought-in strategy while most other automakers were quicker to add connectivity via an embedded cellular modem. Ford initially installed 2G/3G modems in its small fleet of electric and plug-in electric vehicles starting in 2012 so that owners could keep tabs on charging. Embedded connectivity came to Lincoln in 2014, and Ford began adding onboard 4G LTE via Sync Connect to select cars starting with the Escape in 2015. To get more cars connected more quickly, last week the automaker rolled out its FordPass SmartLink solution that plugs into the OBD port of 2010 to 2017 model year vehicles. This lets owners retroactively get onboard Wi-Fi, set up a "geo-fence" to keep tabs on a car's location, receive vehicle health reports and allows remote engine starting and door locking/unlocking using a smartphone app, among other features. But to connect older Ford vehicles will cost owners $16.99 a month for two years, not including installation. Ford throws in 1 GB of data or a 30-day trial, whichever comes first, after which owners have to add the vehicle to their Verizon shared data plan, which supplies connectivity for SmartLink, or establish a new account. (Disclosure: Autoblog is owned by Verizon.) By comparison, GM's 4G LTE data plans start at $10 a month for 200 MB and goes up to $30 for 3 GB, and owners can also add a car to an AT&T shared-data plan. But OnStar doesn't have a separate monthly subscription for the embedded modem or an installation charge, and standard features via the RemoteLink Mobile App are free for the first five years of ownership. FCA's Uconnect Access service also uses an embedded modem to provide similar telematics features for $20 per month following a free one-year trial, while a la carte in-car Wi-Fi is offered for $10 per day, $20 per week or $35 per month.
