Crew Cab, Low Miles, Duramax, Allison, 4wd, Many Options on 2040-cars
|
Hard to find a Duramax in this condition with these low miles at this price. I don't really need to sell it, I am just considering it because I sold the large living quarters trailer I used it to tow with and really do not need a truck this big anymore and somewhat tired of the inconveniences of diesel.. Never been used for hard work, only pulling horse trailers. I thought I was the second owner and guy I bought it from was the first, but the auto check says 3 owners. However, I have had it for the past 95,000 miles out of the 107,000 on it. Just had its 100k check-up about 2 years ago with no problems. This truck has only had an avg of 8000 miles put on it a year and is really just broken in for a diesel. No rust and no accidents, it would be considered in excellent condition except for the fender damage. With good fenders, I have seen comparable trucks like this listed in the $23k-25k range at dealerships. Everything works on it (except electric mirror control on sideways movement, you just push them in/out were you want them and then can adjust up/down as needed). Gooseneck tow ball and outlet in the bed with a Line-X professionally sprayed bed liner. Receiver hitch and bumper pull outlet also work and used recently. Tow transmission button on steering wheel and trailer brake actuator professionally installed under front dash (see pic). Just used push-button 4WD a month ago with no problems, drove great. Six brand new tires less than 2000 miles ago and new front shocks. Beautiful, smooth ride. Good regular maintenance and frequent fuel filter changes, no leaks, does not burn oil.Always starts. Has cold weather plug in if you need it or want to use it. Only been in the shop once about a year after I bought it for new u-joints probably around the 30k mark (which was a weird time for u-joint failure, which perplexed us, but they've been fine since). This truck has tremendous pulling power; had no problems through the Rocky mountains with a loaded 26' foot trailer on it. The performance of the Allison transmission spoils you for any other transmission especially how it saves your brakes. Transmission on this truck has always worked like a dream and made a lifelong fan of me for the Allison and probably the biggest thing I'll miss on this truck.
Left rear fender damage did not occur from an accident but from jack-knifing a flat bed trailer into it and the the speckling on the front of the fenders is from living on 4 miles of gravel road. (see photo details) I have no idea if it is an LS or an LT as there are no markings to that effect, but I believe it is an LT since it is all leather and everything electric with the push-button 4WD. Single CD player. AC blows cold, but is manually controlled (not digital) and not separate on the driver/passenger sides. Other than that, I think it has all options. Even has the fog lights. Front center console does not change into a bench seat, so captain seats in front. Leather all in good shape as front seats have always had seat covers on them. (interior photos are dusty due to living on a gravel road, but it will be cleaned if sold) The ONLY trade I would consider would be for an EVEN trade on a K2500 Silverado or Sierra (Chevrolet/GMC). Since I would be trading a one-ton Duramax for a 3/4 ton gas, the 2500 would have to be newer (2002-2007 range) and lower miles (40k-70k). Must be gas, Must be an HD so it has the tow package, Must be a 4WD, Must be a long bed. Must have cruise. Must be an automatic. Must be a crew cab or will consider an extend cab if the right truck. No regular cabs. I will consider a basic W/T as long as it has cruise. Don't care if the 4WD is on the floor. Can be cloth and have a base interior package. Prefer a spray-in bedliner. Truck must be clean, run great, no accidents (clean carfax) and no rust. Of course, a gas 2500 equipped with an Allison would be given preference over any other trades, but I know they're pretty rare :) Mileage may be slightly higher as I do use it about once a month for small local trips. Payment of balance after deposit is by Bank Wire Transfer ONLY Title free and clear. Truck is available locally so listing may be cancelled at any time. |

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

Texas sues GM, saying it tricked customers into sharing driving data sold to insurers
Wed, Aug 14 2024Texas filed a lawsuit Tuesday against GM over years of alleged abuse of customers' data and trust. New car owners were presented with a "confusing and highly misleading" process that was implied to be for their safety, but "was no more than a deceptively designed sales flow" that surrendered their data for GM to sell. The suit contends that at no point was selling driving data ever even suggested as a possibility, putting GM in violation of the state's consumer protection laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is seeking a jury trial and at least $10,000 per offense (every GM car sold in the state since 2015) and a hefty add-on of $250,000 in cases where the victim was over 65. Texas seems to be flying high after a recent $1.4 billion settlement from Meta over other privacy concerns. This may well be a way to solve any pending budgetary issues in the Lone Star State.

A new report from UC Davis claims that a global expansion of public transit could save 1,700 megatons of carbon dioxide yearly and over $100 trillion by 2050. A "high-shift scenario" would be necessary, wherein governments invest in rail and clean buses, expand biking and walking infrastructure and shift focus away from projects that encourage car use. This shift to public transit would especially be important in the US, China and India. Read more in the press release below.
