I have owned this truck since 6/22/2011, so just under 3 years. I have put about 48,000 miles on it in that time. It works great, looks unique & presentable, and I would drive it anywhere. I am selling due to not needing such a large vehicle anymore...we bought a bmw 325i to replace this.

$5000

This Trailblazer is a 2005, with 178,832 miles. This is an EXT...so it has the somewhat uncommon THIRD ROW SEATING. Has the 4.2 liter inline 6 cylinder Vortec. I have current tags on it and I did an emissions test back in november (i have the registration but can't find the emission printout--actually, the MVD may have taken it when I got the registration). No trouble codes, runs and drives perfect. 

There are a few MINOR issues:
1. The stepper motor on the tachometer and battery gauge are worn out and those two gauges frequently get stuck and do not read correctly. Speedometer, temperature, fuel level, oil pressure all work fine.
2. Few dings in the paint...but it looks pretty good...not like your typical Arizona car, the clear coat is there and it is shiny.  There are some rock chips on the front edge of the hood, headlights could use one of those resurfacing kits, and the truck could probably use a good washing and wax.  (The interior was just shampoo'd and steam cleaned).
3. I have the front bumper cover but it needs to be painted if you want to put it back on. I removed it so the aux lights could be mounted and to gain a little more nose clearance.
4. The air conditioning works & blows cold, but it is not extreme cold, I suspect it could use a recharge.

That's it, everything else works! Radio, cruise control, 4x4 hi/lo, AWD, all electric windows, front and rear wipers, all lights, the rear struts to hold up the tailgate, and the remote key fob...all of it is there and works like it should.

Also, some upgrades have been done to the truck:
* 3" suspension lift kit.
* 31" BFG Off road tires WITH full size matching spare
*Custom K&N cold air intake
*Custom Exhaust - Flowmaster 40 series 1 into 2, with custom done dual exhaust with one exit on each rear corner. This was shop done, not a hack job. The Flowmaster DOES add a little growl, so be aware (it is not obnoxious however).
*Truck has POWERLITE limited slip rear end.
*KC Off road lights, wired to the stock fog light dash switch.
*3 gauge pod mounted on a pillar (gauges are removed, but it is there and ready for you to put in whatever you want).
*New battery less than a year ago (Interstate Battery)
*New rear door lifts about 6 months ago.
*4 of the 6 ignition coil boots have been replaced with new.
*New exhaust manifold less than a year ago
*New brake pads and new front rotors about 1 year ago.
*New spark plugs 8 months ago.
*New serpentine belt 1 year ago.
*Probably a couple hundred dollars worth of towing balls/bars are included!

Title is in hand, regular/non-salvage, no liens.

Truck is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to void the auction should it sell locally.

$200 non-refundable deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of auction close.  The rest in CASH upon pickup.  Vehicle must be picked up within 10 days of auction close in Glendale, AZ 85308.  NO SHIPPING!!

What we know, and think we know, about the 2016 Chevy Volt

Wed, Aug 13 2014

With the next-gen Chevy Volt due to make an appearance at the Detroit Auto Show early next year, bits and pieces about the new car are making their way into the press. Perhaps most importantly, the new Volt is going to have better "fuel economy and efficiency," according to GM executive vice president Mark Reuss. The current Volt gets 98 MPGe and 37 miles per gallon on premium fuel. It also has a 38-mile electric-only range. We don't know how GM will improve the efficiency or to what degree, but the logical options include making the car lighter, giving it better aerodynamics and/or improving the powertrain. To that end, one of the big things we don't know for sure includes information on the new gas-powered engine. Forbes says it will be a downsized 1.0-liter, three-cylinder mill instead of the 1.4-liter, four-cylinder used in the current model, which could certainly help the car be more efficient. The new Volt is also going to have more technology, which shouldn't surprise anyone. GM is now openly talking about how it will change the way it markets the Volt, shifting away from the mass-market mentality to focus on the regions where the car is already popular. "There's a Northeast and West Coast market for Volt, and there's nothing wrong with that," Chevy chief marketing officer Tim Mahoney told Forbes. There are rumors that the new Volt will have seating for five by adding a seat in the back. This is something a lot of current Volt owners would love, but we've heard nothing official hinting that this would be the case. We expect the battery to be the new 17.1-kWh version, or maybe even have a capacity increase, so GM would have to seriously repackage the pack to eliminate the ridge that runs from between the front seats and then back to the rear two seats. If you've heard anything official, do let us know.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production [UPDATE]

Sun, Jan 25 2015

UPDATE: A previous version of this story indicated that Orion Assembly would be idled for seven weeks, from February 16 through April 6. This was incorrect. The factory will instead only be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has announced that the factory responsible for the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Sonic will be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6, with blame being placed on excess supply. The Orion Assembly plant, about 45 minutes north of GM's Renaissance Center headquarters, employs about 1,800 people, but they'll be given a pair of furloughs as inventories of the sub-compact Sonic and premium compact Verano reach 127 days and 84 days, respectively. That works out to 26,600 Chevys and 9,800 Buicks waiting for buyers. According to Automotive News, the compact Chevy sales bested the industry average in 2014, jumping up nine percent versus the the overall segment's eight-percent gain, while the Buick sedan's sales were down four percent. When asked about the shutdown, a GM spokesman told AN that it will "build to market demand," while also pointing out that the company did not comment on production plans.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
