1978 Chevrolet Cheyenne "big Ten" Chevy Truck Classic Pickup . Original Survivor on 2040-cars
Klickitat, Washington, United States
Up for Auction Today is my 1978 Chevy Cheyenne Big Ten. I bought this Truck from the second owner in the small town where I live. The first owner owned it from new till 1981 when he traded it in @ a Dealer in The Dalles Oregon, The owner I bought it from owned it from 1981 till This Summer When I purchased it. All The people in Klickitat Wa. where I live and found the truck say the first owner never left town with it the time he owned it. (Klickitat is about 1 mile long.) The owner I bought it from said he drove it to the dalles about 1 time a month from 1981-1992 when he parked it with a transmission leak. He swore up and down it has 21,000 miles but I have no proof of that, So Im selling it as mileage unknown! This is a big ten Model which means its a 1/2 ton with 3/4 ton chassis. Google Big Ten Chevy and it will give you a couple page explanation of this package. Truck Runs really well as it should and the transmission has been removed, inspected and resealed by a professional mechanic. He also installed a stage 1 shift kit while he was re installing it. Truck does puff a tiny bit of smoke upon start up but vanishes almost instantly. i believe is a dried out valve seal causing it. it does not use oil at all though. I had a Factory 1978 Chevrolet tailpipe/muffler installed in august. Tires have 600 miles on then and cost me $860.00 I also had wheels powder coated at same time. belt,radiator,hoses have all been replaced. Truck has cruise control but needs cable from speedo to cruise box. right know theres a speedo cable from trans to speedo. vehicle is equipt. with air condioning but needs recharged. system is complete though. Interior is in great shape but will need a seat cover as its starting to split at seems. headliner sags so it needs to be re glued or replaced. dash is nice but speaker grill cracked this winter. I've driven this truck about 2000 miles since purchase and its been very reliable. It also has brand new battery.Body has been lightly polished and waxed.Comes with nice used factory gm grille that needs a new bow tie. I'm only selling because I'm having one of my kidneys removed on march 27 and need money for bills while I'm off. Please feel Free to call me with any questions (I really encourage it) . DO NOT BID TO LOOK AT VEHICLE, YOUR BIDDING TO OWN THIS NICE UNMOLESTED TRUCK. THIS TRUCK IS NOT PERFECT BUT I BELIEVE IT TO BEEN IN VERY GOOD SHAPE AND WORTHY OF A RESTORATION.

GM, Pilot will build EVgo fast chargers at 500 truck stops across U.S.
Thu, Jul 14 2022All of our maps showing electric vehicle charging stations across the U.S. are going to need an update. Today, General Motors, Pilot and EVgo announced plans to work together on a nationwide DC fast charging network. The plan calls for 2,000 charging stalls that can deliver up to 350 kW to be installed at up to 500 Pilot and Flying J travel centers in the U.S. The goal is to have DC fast chargers available in 50-mile intervals across the country. The new charging stations will feature GM's "Ultium Charge 360" branding and "Pilot Flying J" logos but will not be limited to drivers of GM EVs. The plugs will use CCS connectors and be available to anyone. GM EV owners can take advantage of benefits, including the ability to make exclusive reservations, get discounts on charging costs and streamline the charging process with Plug and Charge and in-vehicle apps that can provide real-time charger availability. The first installation phase will take place in 2023, and "the bulk of the installations" should be completed by 2025, EVgo CEO Kathy Zoi said during a conference call with reporters announcing the plan. "We're gonna get going immediately and commence all of that engineering and planning stuff," she said. "We've got a pretty orderly plan." Pilot CEO Shameek Konar said the company expects the new EV charging stations to coexist with the current fuel infrastructure. "An average Pilot Flying J location is about 10 acres," Konar said. "This will be in addition to all of our gas pumps. The way I think about it is, this is a new source of energy that is going to coexist with gas for quite some time. We can debate how long, but we need to serve both groups of customers." Installing DC fast chargers at hundreds of Pilot's travel centers — aka truck stops — means there should be food, drinks, restrooms, WiFi and even showers available while you wait for an EV to charge. Pilot recently announced its “New Horizons” plan that will invest $1 billion in upgrading Pilot travel centers with more premium amenities, including expanded seating and lounge areas. While the exact amount of time it will take to charge an EV using these new stations will vary on the EV and its current state of charge, most EVs can refill from a low state of charge to around 80 percent in 20-30 minutes on a fast charger. The new stations are future-proofed to deliver up to 350 kW, a charge rate that few EVs today can handle.
GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
