Up for auction is this 1998 Chevrolet truck. I don't need it anymore as I have another vehicle. Truck has 232k miles on the body, and from the previous owner it has 63k miles on the purchased new from the factory 5.7L motor, as well as 63k miles on the crate transmission. Runs great, starts nice and easy every time.
Mild modifications; New Magnaflow cat-less exhaust ( Check engine light is on due to there being no cats. I've had it scanned on a computer several times to verify. ) ran from the headers back a couple months ago. K&N air intake, lowered several inches with real shocks, no haggard set up with lowering blocks. Has Power Steering/Power Windows/Power Locks, heat and A/C, though A/C needs to be recharged. Haven't bothered recharging it myself because because I like the windows down.
It has the third door, but I cannot get it to open anymore. Window tint all the way around, no bubbling or peeling. Recently had 2 new Sony Xplode speakers installed in each door. Everything works as it should (besides A/C). Interior is in decent condition. Headliner is falling slightly in a couple places, nothing annoying or major. Seats are clean, no rips or cuts. Typical age from getting in and out shows.
Exterior is okay. Tail gate is functional, but has a dent in the lower right corner from previous owner. Driver side passenger door has a slightly long L shaped crack in the paint, but it doesn't effect the overall integrity. Driver side rear quarter panel above the tire has a dent, but it's not major and could be easily fixed. Body is basically in "truck" condition, but a little better. Vehicle has been smoked in. Few scratches here and there, could use a buffing. But overall still a good looking truck.
New tires all the way around, a little over 1,000 miles. New brake rotors and pads installed recently. In the time that I've owned it, I've maintained it well as I do with all my vehicles. Oil changed a little over 1,000 miles ago, coolant flushed and replaced. I had the tires balanced and rotated a few months ago and at that time I asked my mechanic to examine it for any issues he may see. The only thing he came across was the driver side ball joint being a little loose. He said it wasn't major, and I haven't had the time or extra money to repair something that isn't major. I personally have driven the truck over 1,000 miles after I was notified and haven't had any odd issues. This is a very reliable and solid truck, and if I didn't need the money I would keep it and drive it for another 10 years.
If you cannot pick up locally, having it shipped is solely the buyers responsibility. Truck is sold as is.

GM learning from current Chevy Volt owners as it works on next-gen model
Tue, Sep 16 2014Details of the second-generation Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid are coming in at a trickle, and the latest is that the 2016 model-year Volt will be improved in all meaningful areas, including performance and all-electric range, says General Motors powertrain director Larry Nitz. 60 percent of Volt customers only charge using a standard 110 outlet. Nitz was speaking to Autoline After Hours about the current and future Volt. He said that GM has been tracking Volt driving habits and found that about two-thirds of the Volts' collective miles are driven in electric mode, and that 81 percent of all Volt trips were done in pure EV mode. Additionally, Volt drivers plug the car in 10 times each week, on average. Nitz also said 82 percent of the Volt's commuting miles are coming from the plug instead of the gas tank. Oh, and 60 percent of Volt customers only charge using a standard 110 outlet. Last month, GM released a teaser shot of the 2016 Volt (above) and said the car would make its worldwide debut at the 2015 North American International Auto Show next January. Earlier this year, the Volt was reported to be getting a new chassis for the upcoming version. The Volt could use a bit of new life. Through August, Volt sales were down 12 percent from a year earlier to 13,146 units, and sales plunged 25 percent alone. That compares unfavorably to the Nissan Leaf battery-electric vehicle, whose 2014 sales have jumped 34 percent to almost 19,000 units. You can see Nitz dish the goods in the video below (Volt comments start at around minute 15). You will also notice AutoblogGreen contributor Gary Witzenburg talk about his history with the EV1 and share his take on the Volt. This content is hosted by a third party.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
