United States

A well used truck which we have used to tow our 5th wheel around on our holiday in the US for the last 5 months.
Alas our VISA's are about to run and it is time to go home and the truck MUST be sold. 
The truck has had it's injectors replaced sometime before I got it. I have fitted a rebuilt injector pump shortly after buying this truck 5 months ago. As I have fitted this myself, I do not have receipts for this work. The engine has a little shake at idle but pulls strong and has no problems pulling our 15000 pound 5th wheeler. The engine doesn't smoke, doesn't use oil or water and keeps cool even pulling our 5th wheel up long hills. 
In the last 5 weeks I have had to replace the transfer case (replaced with a GM rebuilt unit) and fitted a new standard clutch (complete clutch kit including flywheel reface). I have receipts for this work totaling around $3500.00  Receipts will be supplied for this work done. 
I have also had a new Reese 16K 5th wheel hitch installed shortly after purchasing this truck. 
There are minor cosmetic scratches in the body which have been painted white and are hard to spot from a couple of feet away. There is some wear and tear in the interior as could be expected of a truck of this age and mileage but no rips in the seat. Some of the plastic trim around the tray edge and on the back bumper is loose in places. 
The fuel gauge doesn't always work (I use the trip meter to estimate the fuel left in the tank), one of the wheel studs on the front is broken. A tie rod end / ball joint will need to be replaced soon in the steering linkage. Discs could do with resurfacing. There are two little areas of rust under the back doors, worst one is shown in the pictures. 
The parking brake doesn't work. However, this is subject to a factory recall. Work was started on this but the GM dealership did not receive the required parts in time to finish the job. As we are travelling and needed to move on, I had to pull the truck out of the dealership before they could complete the work. I can supply the contact names and phone numbers for the dealership which started the work. But taking this truck into any GM dealership and having them run the VIN number should show that the recall is still outstanding and the work should be done free of charge.
So truck needs a little work (and it is all minor really) but is priced accordingly. 
As this truck must be sold, all offers will be considered.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.

GM is quietly slashing prices on base models

Fri, Jan 30 2015

While General Motors' fourth quarter financial figures haven't yet been released, the automaker seems to be weathering a potentially rocky time well, even beating third-quarter projections last year. To keep the climb going, the company is launching new base trims for several popular models that make them cheaper than ever but with tight dealer margins. The new entry-level trims are the Chevrolet Cruze L, Equinox L, GMC Terrain SL and Buick LaCrosse 1SV. Buyers lose some content by picking them, but the prices are slashed. According to Cars Direct, the biggest savings are on the LaCrosse, where customers pay $31,065, plus $925 destination, $2,570 less than the previous base 1SB trim but must accept things like 17-inch wheels and no cargo net in the back. If you're wondering how Buick can remove only a little equipment but cut the price so much, it's because the company also slashed dealer margins. According to Cars Direct, the difference between the invoice and MSRP for the LaCrosse 1SV is only around $150, compared to around $1,350 before. The disparity is even greater for the Cruze with an $81 difference in the prices, compared to about $600 for the LS version. Showrooms are expected to keep very low stocks of these trims, though. "Dealers use such vehicles to get people in the door, but they do not generally want to do high volumes of these strippers. The margins are next to nothing; they don't make much money off these cars," said Ed Kim, Vice President of Industry Analysis for AutoPacific to Autoblog. Dealers are also expected to advertise that these new base trims undercut major competitors. For example, the Cruze L rings up for about $2,320 less than a Honda Civic LX, according to Cars Direct. One potential drawback for buyers is that these models might not be eligible for incentives. While the attractive prices might get customers into dealers, folks may not actually end up driving home with these entry-level models. Kim indicated base trims also make up a small portion of the sales mix. "Consumers aren't asking for stripped out vehicles, even at the low end of the marketplace," he said.
