1986 Chevrolet Suburban 3/4 Ton 4x4 on 2040-cars
Mason, Illinois, United States
1986 Chevrolet K20 Suburban Up for auction is our 1986 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban. This is a very well maintained vehicle with seating for 8 passengers. The interior is in fantastic shape for a 28 year old truck. All interior and exterior lights and gauges work perfectly (even the analog dash clock). It has 3 rows of seats, all are without stains or tears. The carpet is also in wonderful condition showing minor fading but no stains, tears or holes. The dash pad has two thin cracks, one above the speedometer and one in the speaker opening. All of the power windows function properly and smoothly. The rear windows from the driver’s row back have been professionally tinted. Overall, the interior is nicer than most 2 year old vehicles you see listed on eBay. The Suburban has 99,987 original miles on its 350 V8 and 3 speed automatic transmission. This was the last year for a factory carburetor and no emission controls in 3/4 ton and up trucks; which means it has a factory dual exhaust without catalytic converters. The Suburban features a factory towing package and 40 gallon gas tank. Factory luggage rack. Front and rear air and heat (air conditioner compressor functions properly but needs recharged). The four-wheel drive works flawlessly both in high and low range. Recent upgrades include: · New headliner · New tires with less than 3,000 miles · Upgraded to dual master cylinder · New windshield · Rebuilt front end · CD/mp3 compatible stereo The Suburban body is in good shape for the year and this particular body style. The two-tone blue and silver paint shines nicely and presents very well. The red pinstripes are straight and un-cracked. There are a few spots where the paint is starting to bubble over the driver’s side front and rear wheel well arches. Also the paint is starting to separate from the body behind the rear wheel wells just above tail pipes. Just under the driver’s side long rear window there is a small rust spot starting. Inside both front fender wells there is a small hole in the factory under-coating. Behind that you can see factory blue painted metal. If you are familiar with this body style suburban, these are all the typical problem spots; however none of the areas are very advanced and all-in-all it is in great shape. There is an un-creased dent on the driver’s front door where the towing mirror mount meets the door. It could be easily popped out by simply removing the interior door panel and pushing it out. All of these issues are featured in the photo section. I have listed all of the “problems” I can think of. This suburban is very mechanically sound. It starts every time and runs down the road straight and true. Drive it anywhere in comfort and style. It will make someone a great family truck, camping vehicle, work horse, first car……? Try to find another 3/4 ton 4x4, this well maintained for such a low price. We are selling it simply because we have run out of garage space and have two other Suburbans. Located in central Illinois, feel free to come and take a look if you are in the area. Email, call or text (Six 1 eight) three 67 two eight 6 three with any questions. |

Which of these five plug-ins should win the 2017 Green Car of the Year?
Tue, Nov 8 2016It's going to be a competitive race for the 2017 Green Car Of The Year. With a minivan in the running for the first time in ages, the five finalists announced by Green Car Journal today include five very different plug-in vehicles. As Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, said in a statement, "electrification is now considered by most automakers an essential technology for current and future high-efficiency models." Let's check out the list: Toyota Prius Prime, the updated plug-in version of the world's best-selling hybrid. Chevy Bolt, GM's all-new entry into the long-range EV game. Chrysler Pacifica, a family hauler with the ability to go 30 miles on electric power. Kia Optima. The nomination is for the full line-up, but really the hybrid and plug-in hybrid models are the green stars here. BMW 330e iPerformance, one of the automaker's many new plug-in hybrids that bring battery power to models outside the i sub-brand. Green Car Journal will announce the winners at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17th, along with some, "other green transportation announcements," whatever that means. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt, the first model to snatch up two wins. Which do you think should win this year?

This is how GM is hiding new Chevy Volt in public
Wed, Oct 1 2014General Motors is letting the public know that, well, it's not about to let the public know anything else about the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. But the automaker is willing to talk about its camouflaging process for upcoming versions of the extended-range plug-in. So it's a half-hearted secret, at best. GM actually has a "camouflage engineer" charged with creating ways to disguise the styling of new vehicles. In the Volt's case, the company is applying black and white swirly color patterns on top of the materials, such as plastics, vinyl and foam, that are used liberally across the body. It's all part of a teaser campaign that started last month with pictures of part the 2016 Volt. Earlier this month, GM said it was keeping track of Volt drivers' habits as it works on the next-gen model. The company noted that more than four out of five trips are being made in all-electric driving mode, and that 60 percent of Volt owners use a plain-old 100-volt outlet to recharge their cars. The car is slated to make its global debut at Detroit's North American International Auto Show next January, and the early word is that performance and all-electric range will be improved (we should hope so). The car will also be sleeker. By how much, we can't tell yet, because of those darn swirly patterns. GM's got more non-details in its press release below. Engineers charged with hiding styling while vehicle testing proceeds in public DETROIT – The styling of the next-generation Chevrolet Volt is one of the automotive world's best-kept secrets. Keeping customers and media eager to see the successor to the groundbreaking original at bay until the new Volt debuts at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January is tricky business. First, it is engineers, not designers, who are charged with creating camouflage that balances styling secrecy with the need to validate the Volt and its systems in public. "If it were up to me it would be a shoebox driving down the road," said Lionel Perkins, GM camouflage engineer. "The design team wants us to cover more of the vehicle and the engineering team needs to have enough of the vehicle's weight and aero exposed so that the tests in the development process are consistent with the product that will come to market." The engineers responsible for the "cool" designs covering the car might deserve style points but their efforts are intended strictly to hide the metal beneath.
Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
