This auction is for the sale of my Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Pickup truck. The combination of the DuraMax Diesel and Allison Transmission make it the ideal combination of power and economy for towing. I use it to tow my race car. I previously had a Dodge Dually 3500 with the Cummins diesel, and this rig tows better, and returns better economy. I get up to 21 MPG on the highway unladen, and up to 15 MPG towing my race car and trailer (7,200 #) The 4WD gets you out of rough terrain situations when needed, and it would make an excellent snow plowing machine, even though I never plowed with this unit. It comes with a Class IV hitch receiver. The one Ton rating comes as a Single Rear Wheel arrangement rather than a Dually, and I find it to actually be better for my application. I can park the unit easier in tight spots, I save on tolls fees on Toll Roads like the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway, and the slimmer lines seem to contribute to better fuel milage. All this with very little sacrifice of GVW Rating. I bought this truck about 3 years ago with 140,000 miles on it, and it has been a flawless performer. It has never let me down. The previous owner never towed with this vehicle. He used it to deliver show dogs back and forth to Viginia, so the early part of the vehicles life and the majority of the accumulated milage has been light duty usage. I've only towed my low stressed trailer for the last 15,000 miles, so overall wear and tear on the vehicle is about as low as you can find. It is certainly not even at Half-Life status. The reason for selling this rig is the need to move on to a higher capacity vehicle due to an expansive effort with the race car that will demand a larger trailer that can haul more equipment. I am so sold on this Trucks mechanical combination of DuraMax and Allison, that I have chosen to stay with GMC and have selected the TopKick-Kodiak series for the longer wheelbase/load capacity that they offer. I have just installed new tires up front and the backs will take you anywhere you want to go for at least another 12,000 miles. I am not aware of this truck needing anything. I merely turn the key, and off I go. I am an Industrial forklift mechanic by trade and I religiously change the oil and filters every 5,000 miles using the best Synthetic oils and filters. The interior is in excellent, near new condition which is a reflection of the light duty usage. The only body flaw can be found in the picture that shows an area on the left rear corner (below the 4X4 decal) that has been disturbed by the previous owners relative that accidently backed into the truck while maneuvering in her driveway. There is slight deformation of the sheetmetal, and I often thought I would take care of the damage myself, but it constantly gets put off because it doesn't look that bad. I think a little work with a soft plastic hammer could straightened out the area, and it doesn't even need paint. Review the pictures and you will find added extras like Window rain guards, tinted glass, a HD GM bed liner, AM-FM CD Sirius Radio, Floor mats, Full length entry step bar under both doors, and more. The high quality lo-profile fiberglass cap keeps the wind resistance low and contributes to the highest milage attainable. It also lets you park the truck under low clearance garage door spaces. Check my flawless E-Bay rating to put your mind at ease in acquiring this trouble free truck. Any further questions will be answered by my Home phone (908) 534-5341 between 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM (EST) or cell phone (609) 847-0738 during the day. Please don't call after 10:00 PM (EST). I would prefer local pickup , but will consider delivery at reasonable cost.

Nissan Leaf sales double Chevy Volt to close out winning 2014
Mon, Jan 5 2015To close out the year, sales of the two most-popular plug-in vehicles in the US kept going in the direction that they had been all year. The Chevy Volt dropped and the Nissan Leaf had another record month. Sound familiar? The Volt sold 1,490 units in December, a year-to-year drop of 37.7 percent. For all of 2014, Volt sales were down 18.6 percent to just 18,805 (from 23,094 in 2013). On the Nissan side of the ledger, the Leaf sold 3,102 units, up 22.7 percent from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. For the year, Nissan sold 30,200 Leafs, up 33.6 percent from the 22,610 sold in 2013. A few other things to note: For every month in 2014, the Leaf sold more than it did for the same month in 2013. For the Volt, this was only true for three months (April, May and July). Funnily enough, the Volt sold exactly 1,478 units in both March 2013 and 2014. The Volt's 2014 total was lower than both 2013 and 2012, while the Leaf had its best year ever. There were three months in 2014 when people bought at least twice as many Leafs than bought a Volt (September, November, December). The Leaf outsold the Volt every month in 2014. The closest gap was 215 units, in February. The biggest was 1,612, in December. As you've most likely seen, GM is still busy teasing the new Volt, which will make its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. We'll have a more in-depth green car sales post up soon. <iframe embedded="true" "="" scrolling="no" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oIuH75vaSHaaplD4x6gLsYjSsiN4oGmez1T63eaYdhY/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false" height="430"> Nissan celebrates 30,000 leaf sales in 2014, best year ever for sales of any plug-in vehicle NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Jan. 5, 2015) – Nissan, the world leader in electric vehicle sales, shattered yet another sales record with 30,200 LEAF vehicles sold in 2014, which is the first time any plug-in has sold more than 30,000 units in a single year. "Now in its fifth model year, Nissan LEAF is more popular than ever and continues to bring new buyers to Nissan," said Brendan Jones, director, Nissan Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure. "From the beginning our vision was to bring electric vehicles to the mass market in a practical and fun-to-drive package, which is what makes Nissan LEAF the best-selling electric car in the world." Last month, Nissan sold 3,102 all-electric LEAFs, up 22.7 percent from the prior year and a December record.
Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
