Greetings,

We are selling our winter truck as we are moving to Texas next month. We have owned it for about 2 years, and it has been an excellent winter/extra vehicle for us. I would not hestitate to drive it cross country right now, we have taken it on long trips, and it has always worked perfectly. We purchased it from a dealer, and I changed all fluids, coolant, oil, brake fluid, transimssion fluid and filter, diffs, and transfer case. AC was serviced/charged not long after. about 3000 miles ago I replaced the front rotors and pads. It was due for emissions inspection about 6 months ago, failed, and I did a complete tune up and it passed, although they told me that it did throw a transmission solinoid code. The transmssion solinoid cost about $30 dollars and is easy to change, you just have to drop the pan. I did not worry about it as it shifts fine. It has a heavy duty towing hitch on its, I don't know if wiring is good or not as I have never used it. Back bumper is rusty and someone backed into and dented it slightly, I have the black step in the back, as the barn doors will not close with the plastic on.

Positives:

I have a receipt that came with the vehicle that the top end of the engine was rebuilt @ 168,000 miles, at the same time the transmission was serviced and the torque converter replaced. The engine runs great and uses maybe half a quart every 6000 miles. I have used mobil 1 high mileage synthetic since we purchased it.

It has minimal rust, some surface rust on the rockers and bottom of the doors, minor surface in various other places, a small spot in the bed area, but nothing that is at all a functional or even really a cosmetic issue. I treated all rust when we bought it, and it has not progressed since then. the only exception being the back bumper.

AC works well, it does not blow quite as cool as it did when I first had it serviced, but both front and rear AC and heat work fine. 4x4 works well and the electronic tranfer case shift buttons work fine although the lights are intermittent.

Both interior and exterior are decent, not great, not awful, I removed carpet it bed after spilling some oil in it. If you are looking for a show piece, this is not the truck for you.

Negatives:

Oil pressure gauge does not work, and never has, no big deal in my opinion.

Gas tank has leak at top, so if you filled it up, it would overflow. It has a huge tank so I usually just put 25 gallons in, I think it holds  35.

Will need tires soon.

When in 4x4 it binds slightly at full lock. I replaced u joints when I did  front brakes.

Rear door locks do not work with buttons, barn door works with buttons but the key lock is frozen.

All in all this is a great truck, and we will be sorry to see it go, but do not need it down south.

Full payment required before truck is picked up, I will mail keys and title when payment has cleared.

Let me know if you have any questions, need more photos, within reason, if you are close, you are welcome to come for a test drive.

Low or negative feedback bidders will have bids deleted.

 

Thanks for looking! No reserve, someone will get a great extra/beater/winter truck!

GM learning from current Chevy Volt owners as it works on next-gen model

Tue, Sep 16 2014

Details 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.

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven

Wed, Feb 8 2023

POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods.  However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows.  Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS.  Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence.  Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino  with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.

GM recalling 316k vehicles due to headlamp faults

Mon, Dec 1 2014

General Motors has announced a recall covering 316,357 vehicles globally, due to the possibility of sporadic or permanent failure of the low-beam headlamps. 273,182 of these vehicles are in the United States, while the remaining affected units are in Canada, Mexico, and elsewhere. This recall includes the 2006-09 Buick LaCrosse (pictured above), 2006-07 Chevy TrailBlazer and TrailBlazer EXT, 2006-07 GMC Envoy and 2006 GMC Envoy XL, 2006-07 Buick Rainier, 2006-08 Saab 9-7X, and 2006-08 Isuzu Ascender. In an email sent to Autoblog, General Motors explains that if the headlamp driver modules are not functioning correctly, "the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could intermittently or permanently fail to illuminate." GM states that this problem does not affect things like high-beams, turn signals, marker lamps, or foglamps. As of this writing, GM states it "has not been able to confirm whether the HDMs in these vehicles caused any vehicle accidents." The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, but the recall has not yet posted to the government agency's website. Scroll down to read the full details in GM's email.
