2001 Chevrolet Express Van 3500 Insulated Refrigerated Reefer Is Carrier 30s on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
|
Here is info on this Van. I purchased the van new in 2001 from Roesch Chevrolet. Insulation and refrigeration was installed by Mobile Air, West Chicago. IL. Reefer unit is Carrier Model 30S. I sold this van to a company that I purchased in 2003. At this time it became a corporation owned van. It is now still in service as a daily used vehicle in the business that I own. I am currently in the process of selling my distribution business(lawyers and paperwork in progress) and the new owner has 12 of his own trucks, so he will not need this van. This vehicle has always been garaged daily and weekends. That is why it has little rust for a van 13 years old and been thru 13 Chicago winters. It was normally driven by the same driver for deliveries in Chicago metro and suburbs. It does show 13 years of wear and tear on the outside, but the van was always maintained by Advance Auto/Brookfield Car Care, Brookfield, IL. If an part needed replacement, it was repaired. I have rented refrigerated vans in the past and that rental in Chicago IL. cost about $150-$200 per day. The van was inspected yearly by Illinois Dept. of Agriculture, Bureau of Meat and Poultry for cleanliness and temperature(inside). It always passed inspection. Tire wear at this time is normal. I would guess you could get 3000-5000 miles before tires need replacement. The van runs fine, but it does have 224,000 miles on it. It is sold "as is". Suggestions and Comments: If you have to replace the motor or transmission in this vehicle, Jasper Engines will have the motor ($4000-$4500) or Transmission ($2500.00) in stock for replacement. Jasper guarantees for 3 years/ 36000 miles on both items. If you replace both items your cost for this van with insulation and refrigeration would be a total of $13000.00. Compare this to a new van with insulation and refrigeration: on the low end about $38000.00. If you drive this vehicle for 2 years with no major repairs, your operating cost is only $250.00 per month plus expenses.(if purchased at $6000.00) I have been in the food distribution business over 40 years and know the costs on this type of vehicle. If you are looking for a refrigerated/reefer, insulated used van, they are very hard to find. They just do not come on the market often. Most vendors just drive them to the end of their useful life. 2001 Chevrolet Van express 3500 Automatic transmission A/C Everything Works - Current Temp setting at 35 degrees in reefer compartment. This temperature depends on how many door opening you have during the day and the outside, but it will hold at 35 degrees per the current settings. Refrigerated and Insulated by Mobile Air, West Chicago,IL. (New Insulation and refrigeration Cost: $7000.00 Always serviced by Mobile Air. Works well.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
