Up for auction is a bank owned, 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer LS with 143,400 + miles. The car was purchased new by the bank and driven daily by our CFO who turned the car in approximately 1 year ago. Since then, it has been used by the bank as our courier vehicle. The vehicle has been properly maintained and has just recently been professionally detailed inside and out and had the oil changed. The car has never been in an accident. Below is a summary of each area of the car:

 

Exterior: The car is a silver metallic color with no visible body damage. The paint overall is in good condition; however, the hood does show some minor signs of wear and fading. The car does have a few small knicks and/or scratches but this is to be expected with a 2006 model. The car has aftermarket step up bars and window visors installed. Headlights are not cracked but are a little foggy. All windows are intact with no cracks visible. The wheels are in good condition; however, the tires will probably need replaced within the new few thousand miles. I am guessing the front end is out of alignment because the front tires have an abnormal wear pattern.

 

Interior: The interior is grey cloth and is in good condition with no staining, holes or tears in the seats or carpet. The car was never smoked in. The headliner is in OK condition, no holes but there are a few very small stains above the driver’s seat (maybe a coffee splatter). All of the trim is intact. The dash is not cracked. There are 2 hairline cracks on the clear plastic piece that covers the speedometer area. The cargo area is clean and the jack and spare tire are in place. The radio and CD player work. All power options work as they should.

 

Mechanical: The car has been a daily driver and still drives fine. No unusual noises or movements are noticed while driving. As mentioned, it has been properly maintained with the oil changed every 3k miles, transmission serviced at the proper intervals, etc. The transmission shifts smooth with no noticeable problems. Only one key and one remote is available. The “Check Engine Light” is on. We have had this diagnosed by a local ASE Certified mechanic and are told that the codes the computer is sending are as follows:

 

P0128: This is related to the thermostat. We are told that it has something to do with the idle temperature.

 

P0456: This is related to the evaporation system. We are told that there is most likely a small leak one of the lines that cycles the fumes from the fuel.

 

The mechanic stated that neither issue would impact the drivability of the vehicle and that it was not necessary to fix either problem. He further estimated that to fix both items, the cost would be approximately $515. The bank will not pay for these items to be repaired.

Overall, this vehicle would make someone a good daily driver. Keep in mind that I am a banker, not a mechanic and the opinions stated are my own, not the banks. The vehicle is being sold as it with no warranty either expressed or implied. I encourage any potential bidder to inspect the vehicle prior to bidding. Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding. If you would like a photo of a particular item or area of the car, please ask. I can be reached between 8:30am – 7:00pm EST at 706-270-4752 or via email at brad.ramsey@fnbcga.com. Winning bidder will be responsible for any taxes or fees associated with transferring title. The winning bidder will receive a clear Georgia title as well as a bill of sale. Payment via cash or certified check. The vehicle must be picked up within 7 days unless prior arrangement is made. Thanks for looking and good luck.

It won't be long now before Nissan Leaf finally overtakes Chevy Volt

Thu, Dec 25 2014

The two best-selling plug-in vehicles ever are the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf. When the two vehicles launched in late 2010, the plug-in hybrid Volt quickly outpaced the all-electric Leaf and, despite lots of ups and downs since then, continues to hold on to a cumulative sales lead. This will change in 2015. Cumulatively, from November 2010 through November 2014, the Volt sold 71,867 units while the Leaf trails with 69,220. That's a difference of just 2,647. Based on current trends (with the Leaf selling around 2,500-2,700 a month and the Volt at 1,500-1,700) we expect the Leaf to take over either in January or, more likely, February when the Leaf takes over as the most popular plug-in car in America. Perhaps even March, depending on how low the numbers are for January and February, which are always slow sales months in the US. Of course, once it takes the crown, the Leaf can't expect to easily hold on for long. A new Volt is coming in the second half of 2015, likely beating a new Leaf to market. The question is, then, how well the Chevy sells with all of its new bells and whistles. Do you think the Volt will be the comeback kid once the 2016 model becomes available?

Best 3rd row SUVs of 2022

Wed, Oct 19 2022

If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices.  OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must.   In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover |  Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV |  Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.

Fernando Alonso just misses qualifying for Indy 500 on first day

Sun, May 19 2019

Former Formula One world champion Fernando Alonso will need a clutch run on Sunday to qualify for the Indianapolis 500 on May 26 after he failed to seal a guaranteed spot on Saturday. The Spaniard tried fives times to put his McLaren Racing Chevrolet in the top 30, but wound up one spot short. He can make the 33-car field only through a six-car shootout on Sunday that will determine the race's final three drivers. "We have another chance to be in the race," Alonso, who is seeking to make his second Indy 500 field, told IndyCar TV. The Spaniard twice got inside the top 30 but both times was bumped outside the mark, with JR Hildebrand and Graham Rahal the final two drivers to seal qualifying spots. Britain's Pippa Mann will be the only woman in the race, qualifying 30th in 227.244 mph. Race positions 10-30 were determined during the day-long qualifying with Saturday's nine fastest drivers set to return on Sunday to decide pole. Spencer Pigot, driving the Ed Carpenter Racing Chevrolet, led qualifying with a four-lap average of 230.083 mph. He was followed by 2018 winner Will Power of Australia (230.081) and Simon Pagenaud of France (229.854). The troubles for Alonso, whose top four-lap average was 227.224 mph, were exacerbated by a punctured tire in his first qualifying run. "That didn't help," Alonso told reporters. "But, obviously, our performance has been quite bad all week. Quite poor." The Spaniard crashed his Chevrolet in practice on Wednesday and missed nearly two full days of practice while a backup car was prepared. He returned on Friday. Alonso said he was worried the McLaren team was "not ready for the challenge." "We've been slow. You see Juncos Racing crashing yesterday and being ready at 6 o'clock. That's impressive," he said. "For us, we've been a little bit slow on everything." Alonso is bidding to join Graham Hill as the only drivers to achieve the 'Triple Crown of Motorsport' with an Indy 500 victory. He previously won the Monaco Grand Prix and Le Mans 24 Hours race. He also won two Formula One drivers' titles.
