What I have here for auction is a 2003 Chevrolet S10 work truck. I have had this truck for 4 years. bought it when it had 97,000 miles on it. I went to school in 2011 and drove it to and from school for the first year putting 40,000 miles on it. After the first year of school, it developed a intake gasket leak. I had repaired the problem but a week or so later the engine jumped time and it blew up. It now has an engine with 46,000 miles out of a 2005-2007 Chevrolet Silverado. a week later the original fuel pump went out and put in a brand new $350 fuel pump from rock auto.com in it. during the swap, the steel fuel line kinked and we had to use a high pressure rubber line as a temporary fix until I got out of school to repair. it ran fine for a few months without any problems and then it started having issues running.
It was confirmed that the rubber fuel line we put in was the reason the truck is having a difficulty running. I have since bought a new steel fuel line but have not had it installed since I had bought a car that averages 40MPG's , I have no motivation to fix it. my loss could be your gain . The truck has been sitting for roughly 6-8 months since I have purchased my 4 cylinder car.
What it needs to get running: Steel fuel line installed (as I said, I have the part) Oil Pan Gasket (have part to install) runs with this but drips oil on occasion 2-3 Shift Solenoid (completed a trans flush and some gunk inside burnt the solenoid up, have part to install) driver side wheel bearing (have part to install.
Aside from that, it needs a new windshield, rear view mirror and dash cluster cover. I have the dash cluster part to repair, just haven't installed it. the windshield cluster and rear view mirror broke during the summer due to it sitting in over 100 degree heat all summer. the bed damage was from where I avoided to get hit at a gas station and got hung up on a pump barrier. truck has been in one accident right after I bought it but was repaired by local body shop.
I have extra parts to go with it that I will dig out of the house when the truck is sold. I do have a lien on the vehicle as I owe 2,500 on it so after purchasing the vehicle, we would have to wait a week or 2 before I can get the title from the bank to send it to you.
if you have any questions, feel free to ask me and I will get back to you as soon as I can. this truck is sold as is with no warranty implied, will have to be trailered out of the property. I do have this truck listed elsewhere so I can/will end this listing early if bought outside of ebay. good luck bidding and don't hesitate to ask me anything about the truck.

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696
Fri, Sep 17 2021In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

Nissan Leaf hits 3,000 sales in July, Chevy Volt climbs over 2,000
Fri, Aug 1 2014It was a good sales month for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt, with the two 'elder statesman' plug-in vehicles reaching numerical milestones in July. The Leaf sold 3,019 units and the Volt crossed the 2,000 sales level for the first time in 2014, hitting 2,020 sales. With Tesla also announcing it is delivering around 2,500 Model S EVs a month (but that's globally, compared to the US-only numbers for the Volt and Leaf we're talking about here) and Ford's plug-in vehicles selling well, we are certainly in a golden moment for EV sales. The Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. For the Volt, the 2,020 units sold represents a 13 percent increase from July of 2013 even thought year-to-date sales are down 8.7 percent this year compared to last year. Overall, total Chevrolet deliveries for July 2014 were up eight percent compared to 2013, so the Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. On the Leaf front, this is only the second time that the EV has sold more than 3,000 units in a month (the other being in May of this year). The year-over-year increase for the Leaf was 62 percent in July and represents the 17th straight month of record sales, as Nissan is more than happy to report each month. Overall, Leaf sales are up 34.6 percent, year-to-date, and Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said in a statement that a free public charging incentive was responsible. "Since we launched the No Charge to Charge promotion in the first 10 markets, we've seen a surge in Leaf sales in those areas. Leaf sales in the northeastern US are also picking up with new tax incentives for Massachusetts and Maryland residents." With No Charge To Charge set to expand to 25 markets over the next year, we expect Leaf sales to continue to grow. We will have our monthly look at all green car sales available soon, so stay tuned.
