1996 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban Ls Sport Utility 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Muskego, Wisconsin, United States
Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. Buying your next vehicle through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. I have been driving this GREAT vehicle for the last 2 months and have ZERO COMPLAINTS! Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction to cover title fees, taxes and processing that I have done in the State of Wisconsin. Up for a NO RESERVE auction today is a very clean 1996 Chevrolet Suburban LS 4x4. Suburbans are fantastic vehicles. When you need to carry a lot of people or need to move a lot of stuff without having to worry about sun, wind or rain...there is no substitute for a Suburban. Loads of SUV's have third row seats recently...but have you seen them? How can anyone comfortably fit back there? And with the third row up in most SUV's, you're left with absolutely no cargo room. You shouldn't have to choose between people OR stuff. I would rate the exterior of this Chevy Suburban to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, this Suburban shows very well. It is finished in dark green and shines like glass. The worst I can say about the exterior is two rust spots on the nose of the hood. The fenders, rockers and doors all look great which is hard to find on an older Suburban. The chrome bumpers and trim look great. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The alloy wheels look great and are wrapped in a nice set of rubber with good tread all around. Please take your time and look at each photo and read the entire description.
I would rate the interior of this Suburban to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. The door panels are clean and tight. The carpets show well and are thick/full looking throughout the interior. The cloth seats show very well and are comfortable. New Goodyear rubber floor mats throughout. The cargo area is accessed via barn doors at the back which are preferred for easy loading and unloading. The stereo is original and sounds good. The climate control system appears to be working properly. There is also rear heat and a/c to keep the entire cabin comfortable. The air conditioner has just been charged. The power windows and locks work properly. The drivers and passenger mirrors are brand new and adjust properly. Nothing really bad to report...just some usual old car stuff. Mechanically, this Suburban appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 5.7L V8 engine starts easily and runs smoothly. Oil change, oil filter and air filter change just completed. I did not see any leaks and the engine does not smoke. The suspension feels nice and tight. The steering feels neutral and responsive. The brakes stop this big SUV with no issues. Her road manners are excellent. The engine keeps perfect temperature and excellent oil pressure at all times. She makes good power and accelerates easily. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts properly with no issues. The push button 4WD system is tested and working properly. Out on the highway, she cruises nice and straight with no complaints. If you've been looking for a clean Suburban, take a good look at this one. They're getting hard to find with good miles and in good condition. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.
Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan
Sat, Dec 6 2014"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
