GMC Sierra SLE (K1500) 4WD, Z71 Off Road Pkg NO RESERVE!!! Features:
The Particulars: The above is a brief description of our 1997 GMC Sierra SLE Z71 (K1500) pickup truck. I bought this truck used in May of 2001. It is currently owned by my 71 year old Father, who has driven it for the last six years. It is a Virginia truck, purchased new in Woodbridge VA. It then lived with me for a while in Leesburg, VA, then spent a couple years in Maryland, a couple in Pennsylvania, and finally went with my Father to New Castle, VA. Since 2003, I had used it as a farm truck, and drove it very little. My Father does service work for condominiums, and has driven it every day for the last six years. You read the mileage correctly - it has 320,505 miles. Nevertheless, it is a great runner, very strong, and has pulled our 2 horse trailer with ease around here and to North Carolina and back. The Z 71 package is awesome. The limited slip rear and auto locking front differentials make it a very hard truck to get stuck... Overall I'd give it a "fair condition" rating (see below for more details). I never list with reserves, so if you snag this truck for the minimum bid of $999.00, you will have gotten one heck of a good deal. A color-matched aluminum utility cap will go with the truck if the selling price reaches $1,200 or more! See photos. It is a highly functional and nice looking cap with locking side doors and ladder racks. The cap (like the truck) shows signs of wear including scratches, dents, a portion of the ladder rack is bent, etc. The body is in good shape with the exception of one dent in the bed behind the passenger door, and some scratching on the tailgate, hood and passenger side front fender (see pictures). Otherwise there are no major dents, scrapes, etc., but there are certainly scratches and dings which are normal for a vehicle of this age & mileage. The interior is reasonably clean, but is certainly not "detailed". There are tears and some small burns in the seat (see pictures), and a few stains in the headliner, but other than that, the interior is in fairly good shape. The good news: Many Chevy / GMC trucks this age are rusted through at the cab corners. The cab corners on this truck are (miraculously) still solid. Other than a few small rust spots around the windshield, the body is rust free. Again, this is very uncommon, particularly for the age and mileage. There are a few minor mechanical "quirks": The AC compressor leaks and needs charging or possibly replacing (the AC is currently not functioning, but the heat works fine). The engine has had no major work, and is very strong. It does use about a quart of oil every 1,500 miles or so (not uncommon for very high mileage vehicles). Since it had about 80,000 miles, it has always benefited from full synthetic oil, which probably has a lot to do with why it still runs well with that many miles. There is a small exhaust leak at the manifold, which can be heard, but is not loud. The "check engine" light is on, and has been on for at least 150,000 miles. These trucks are known for this sort of thing - it does not require an emissions inspection in Virginia, so both my Dad and I have always just let that light go... The front tires are in decent shape, but the truck has always worn the inside or outside edges out prematurely. You will note the uneven wear in the pictures. The rear tires are in very good shape. As noted above, the transmission was replaced in the summer of 2013. Both universal joints were replaced in February, and several other smaller things. Dad knew he was selling the truck and wanted to feel confident that it was in good running order for its new owner. The truck is certainly not perfect, but it is in amazing condition for its age and its mileage. As with all of my listings, I have gone out of my way to point out the "flaws" here. If you have any questions, please call me at 610 806 3954. Also, you are encouraged to come see / test drive the truck. I am not a mechanic, and nothing you see above should be construed as a mechanic's opinion. If you would like to have your mechanic look at the truck, I would encourage that as well. The truck is located in Cochranville, PA, which is roughly in between Baltimore and Philadelphia.
There are NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED on this vehicle. the vehicle is being sold with a clear title, as is, where is. Again, you are encouraged to come have a look, or have your mechanic do so, please call me at 610 806 3954 Thanks for looking and again, please don't hesitate to call me with any questions, etc. at 610 806 3954. |

2022 Rivian R1T vs. 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning vs. GMC Hummer EV Pickup | How they compare on paper
Tue, Sep 28 2021The 2022 Rivian R1T has arrived, ushering in the era of the production electric pickup truck. The Rivian reviews are in, and spoiler alert: They're pretty good. Curious how the new battery-powered truck stacks up to its forthcoming competitors? Well, you've come to the right place. Rivian beat all of Detroit's big automakers to market in the half-ton segment, but probably not by the margin the startup would have liked. Ford's answer is the F-150 Lightning, which is due to enter production early next year, coming hot on the heels of GM's first entry into the space – the GMC Hummer EV pickup – which is scheduled to come off the line late this fall. While all three are pickups, they're aimed at distinctly different buyers, as a perusal of their specifications will reveal. Let's have a look, shall we?  Disclaimer: Before we dive in on this one, we'd like to note that while we've made our best effort to verify the specs provided, the Rivian is brand-new and the others are still in the prototype phase. Some of these figures may be inaccurate or may simply change before production. This is all hypothetical until you can actually cross-shop them anyway, right? Cool. End disclaimer. Let's start with the powertrains. They're all battery-electric trucks engineered on a modular rear-wheel-drive configuration engineered to accommodate (theoretically, anyway) up to four electric drive units. Rivian actually makes the most use of this with a quad-motor setup producing 835 horsepower and 908 pound-feet of torque with its high-output initial model. GMC's three-motor Hummer has the R1T beat with its estimated 1,000-horsepower output, while Ford's (also three-motor) comes in with a far more modest 563 horses. This is an excellent illustration of our above point that these are not all engineered for the same crowd. Ford's F-150, which comes in at a lower price point, is meant to be far more mainstream, as its power output suggests. This theme continues when we look at the dimensions. Despite the image "Hummer" may conjure, GMC's entry actually needs the shallowest parking space. The Rivian is right behind it, with the work-truck-spec Ford extending more than a foot longer than either. What the Hummer lacks in length, it makes up for in girth. It's the widest by a good 5 inches. The Rivian is only slightly pudgier than the F-150, but it's much closer at that end of the scale.
Sunday Drive: Spying an automotive future of performance
Sun, May 13 2018I spy, with my little eye ... the future of the automotive world here in the United States. That pretty much sums up this week's Sunday Drive, in which we pull out the most popular stories on Autoblog of the previous week and try to draw some sort of conclusion as to what binds them all together. This week, it's spy shots, starting with one of the biggest and baddest muscle cars the world has ever seen: the Dodge Challenger Hellcat. The Hellish coupe gets a new hood for 2019 with dual scoops, but that's about the only meaningful change for the new model year. No matter. As long as it's packing 700-plus horsepower under those two hood scoops, all will be right with the world. Moving on, we take keep the performance angle but move it from the street to the dirt with a new version of the Chevy Colorado ZR2 that we think is probably called the Bison. We think it'll keep the high-tech suspension bits of the regular ZR2, but add expedition gear that may include a snorkel and a winch. Which, if true, is pretty dang cool. Keeping the truck theme is the 2019 GMC Sierra. There's nothing particularly noteworthy about the trim level in which the truck was spied, and that's what makes this specific example interesting. Base-model trucks almost never get much attention, but they sell in droves to workers who need an honest-to-goodness truck for work or play and don't care about bells, whistles, or massive chrome badges. And finally we have the 2018 Jeep Wrangler, which is on fire on the sales floor right now. But those are all V6-powered Wranglers flying off the showroom floor. Soon, a turbocharged four-cylinder engine option will become available, and now we know that it will return up to 23 miles per gallon in the city and 25 on the highway. That makes it the most fuel efficient Wrangler that Jeep has ever sold. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the automotive news that's fit to publish. 2019 Dodge Challenger Hellcat with twin-scoop hood spied with no camouflage Chevy Colorado ZR2 Bison caught testing 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 spied in base trim level 2018 Jeep Wrangler four-cylinder fuel economy revealed Spy Photos Chevrolet Dodge GMC Jeep Truck Coupe SUV Off-Road Vehicles Performance dodge challenger srt hellcat sunday drive
2019 GMC Sierra Denali MultiPro tailgate and CarbonPro bed explained
Fri, Mar 2 2018When the 2019 Chevy Silverado debuted at the Detroit Auto Show in January, GM's Mark Reuss promised that the new 2019 GMC Sierra would have some significantly different styling and features than its corporate sibling. Previously, the Sierra has been little more than a Silverado with new front and rear fascias and some extra chrome inside and out. Well, Reuss was right. In addition to new sheetmetal, the Sierra exclusively gets the slick MultiPro tailgate and CarbonPro carbon-fiber bed box The tailgate really is trick. At the debut, GMC had multiple demonstrations, with engineers walking us through all six different configurations. Like all Sierra tailgates, the MultiPro version uses an aluminum skin to reduce weight. It's easy to tell which tailgate is which, as the MultiPro has a distinct cutout in the middle where it can fold down or extend. It can be used to extend the bed, drop to allow easier access, provide a sort of workbench, or be used as a step to help get into the bed. Yes, there's even a handle. Ford who? The step itself can support up to 375 pounds, 75 pounds more than Ford's similar tailgate step. This tailgate really is unique to the Sierra and is standard on SLT and Denali models. That said, the power-operated tailgate from the Silverado won't be coming to the GMC. Chevy gets its own exclusive, too. The Sierra's other big exclusive is the carbon-fiber reinforced plastic bed box. CFRP replaces steel inside the bed though not on the fenders. The bed uses four pieces; one for the bottom, one in the back and two along the sides. This isn't a CFRP. There is no steel hiding underneath these panels. Just take a peek underneath. The bed is a composite that uses 1-inch carbon-fiber threads, not a weave. Sheets of CFRP are molded and quenched — a process where the plastic coagulates and solidifies, locking in the carbon fiber — in just 60 seconds. That allows GMC's supplier to crank out these much more quickly. The finish looks like black fiberglass, though an engineer said that this wasn't the final production version. The final model will have different textures in order to improve grip and keep things from sliding around. GMC is touting the material's dent and corrosion resistance, though it remains to be seen how well it holds up to cracking. A video at the reveal showed people going after it with hammers and cinder blocks, but in-person demonstrations weren't available.
