 The car belonged to my neighbor's husband who passed in February. He bought the car brand new in June of 1997 with 1 mile on it as you can see on the title, and has been the only owner and driver of the car. He was 83 when he passed so he was either 65 or 66 when he bought it. This car has not been abused. She finally decided to sell it to me in mid May. The car sat for just over 5 months, so upon purchase, I had it fully serviced at the local Chevy dealership. The service included a new battery, radiator flush, oil change, new spark plugs and thorough inspection. The car has 103,000 miles, which include 3 trips to Vegas from Tennessee and back, and 9 or 10 trips to the Florida Keys from Tennessee and back.  I've driven the car to and from work, which is a 120 mile trip there and back, several times, for a total of 687 miles since my purchase. The car runs BEAUTIFULLY. Very quiet, comfortable ride, yet very strong, and responsive as well. The car is 100% stock other than the deer and crossflags emblem I added. This is a true SS impala, not a clone, as can be found on the codes in the trunk. On a scale of 1-10, the leather is a 10/10, the carpet is 9/10, and the paint is 9.5 of 10, with no noticeable scratches or dings. Everything on the car works as it should from heat and ac, locks and windows, EVEN THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS ON THIS CAR. The tires are BF GOODRICH GFORCE 255/50/17 which was stock option when produced. There is approximately 80-85% tread left, the tires look great all around. No curb rash on the wheels at all. This car is in unbelievable condition. My description or the pictures do it no justice! I own a 2011 Camry and a 2010 Silverado, and neither are as clean as this Impala. It's truly remarkable, and unbelievable the pampering and care this car has received. I've seen numerous b-body's, even some with under 30,000 miles, but this is the cleanest, purest SS I've EVER seen! 

BAD:  
The car sat for over 5 months in a detached garage after the owner's passing. Squirrels nested under the hood and scratched the insulation under the hood. (Pics below)
The odometer fades in and out which is common for these vehicles. You cannot see the mileage during the day, but it does fade in and out, and is visible at night time.
There are 2 plastic knob covers missing from the factory radio adjustments. You can still adjust the bass and treble without the covers.
The rear driver window rolls up and down, but does come off track momentarily.


Please feel free to message me your number for videos and any more pics you may want... Also, do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have about the vehicle, as I know it's entire history, and have seen the service records dating back to 2002.  I have 100% positive feedback, so please bid with confidence, as you can assure that I am an honest seller, that has yet to disappoint a customer. Thanks for stopping by and God Bless you all!!

Chevy says not to look at the 2019 Silverado's fuel economy rating

Tue, Nov 20 2018

The 2019 Chevy Silverado is hitting dealerships soon, and one of the most notable changes for the new full-size pickup is the addition of a 2.7-liter turbocharged inline-four. The engine replaces the naturally-aspirated 4.3-liter V6 in volume consumer models like the Silverado LT and promises more power, less weight and — most importantly — better fuel economy. The thing is, the gains in efficiency haven't been as dramatic as some might have hoped, especially when stacked up against competitors from Ford and Ram. As Automotive News reports, GM's response is a little murky. First, let's talk numbers. We're pulling all figures from FuelEconomy.gov, the official U.S. government source for fuel ratings. Fuel economy numbers on trucks vary greatly based on a number of factors. Bed and cab configuration play a part, but so does a four-wheel-drive system. You also have to factor in tires, transmissions, rear-axle gearing, hybrid systems and cylinder deactivation. Things like that can make the difference between best- and worst-in-class. The EPA's website doesn't give enough information a lot of the time, so there's really no easy way to compare apples-to-apples. First, take a look at the ratings for the 2019 Silverado. A 2.7-liter model with two-wheel drive is rated 20 city, 23 highway and 21 combined. That's both better and worse than a two-wheel drive 2018 Silverado with the 4.3-liter V6 (18 city, 24 highway and 20 combined). The updated 2019 Silverado with a 4.3-liter V6 has yet to be rated. With less weight and a smaller engine, many hoped Chevy would make bigger gains. It's unusual to see any decrease in a fuel economy metric these days. GM says that it's not done tuning the new 2.7-liter engine, so fuel economy could theoretically increase. Expanding further, a V8-powered 2019 Silverado (17 city, 24 highway and 19 combined) actually gets better highway fuel economy than a turbocharged four-cylinder powered truck in certain configurations, even if the latter has a better overall average. But that's only with two-wheel drive, the 8-speed transmission and cylinder deactivation. A Silverado with the 5.3-liter V8 and a 6-speed automatic is rated at 15 city, 22 highway and 17 combined. The biggest issue with the Silverado 2.7-liter doesn't come from within GM itself but from Ford and Ram. GM cites the Ford F-150 with the 3.3-liter V6 and the Ram 1500 with the 3.6-liter V6 as the closest competitors to its new 2.7-liter inline-four.

Surprise! GM putting aluminum in next-gen pickups

Wed, Aug 5 2015

Last month, General Motors launched a series of ads touting the benefits of steel over aluminum – specifically, with regard to the Chevy Silverado versus the Ford F-150. (Kind of. We're not sure what a grizzly bear has to do with anything.) We took issue with the ads, with editor in chief Mike Austin saying they "reek of insecurity, and distract from the Silverado's strengths that could be used for positive advertising." But what bothers us more, is that yet another report surfaced claiming anti-aluminum GM will indeed use the weight-saving material in its next-generation fullsize trucks. On Tuesday, GM announced a $877-million investment for its truck plant in Flint, MI. But Reuters says that huge overhaul is because the trucks will use "substantially different equipment than the tools GM uses today." The report specifically states, "People familiar with the company's plans say GM's next-generation pickups and SUVs will make use of various materials, including aluminum and lightweight steel, to shed weight and gain fuel efficiency to meet tougher federal standards." The Silverado already uses a few aluminum components in the engine and hood, and if more widespread use will help GM build its best fullsize trucks ever, then that's great. Honestly, we have no reason to doubt that aluminum will be used in the next Silverado and GMC Sierra. We just hope GM remembers that nothing is ever truly deleted from the bowels of the Internet when it launches the subsequent "look how great aluminum is!" campaign.
