This is MY PERSONAL WORK TRUCK. This is a great work truck; uncommonly clean for it's year, new load range E tires, nice lines, good looking, well-maintained rig. Brand new everything mechanical, kept up with everything, just inspected, just passed, just registered--you won't have to do anything but pay for it, insure it and put it to work.   The Texas title is in my name.  The truck does have a full size spare, mounted under the bed in the stock location.  I have all the jack components, a bottle jack and OEM accessories that will come with the truck. 

New or recent:  Gas Tank, lift pump, electric injector pump, injectors (all), line, hoses, coolant flush, batteries, (dual), starter.
 Two sets of keys for ignition and all the locks on the chassis--which are included. So is the Wilton Vise. 
Trailer brakes, electric hook-ups for 5, 6 and seven-pin connectors. Gooseneck is on 1/2" plate tied into the frame of the bed. The bumper hitch 2" receiver is a class III/grade 10 hardware with dual-sided fillet welds.
You will not be disappointed. I have 200 hours+ in a custom made / modified 8' CM bed, with tank recesses, easy-lift gated / lockable tank access, (made so you only have to lift your tanks about 10 inches up).  The bed has tank locking chains, and are all double chain / tension secured.  LED lights throughout, RKI boxes--you name it, this is a very nice work truck. Has room in the RKI boxes for 20+ HD 100' extension cords, 300' of 02 ought lead(s), All your welding tools, cutting torches, line and regulators, 12T bottle jack and lug wrenches and as much rod, wire & gear as you can pack in. You can sleep in the back seat because you really don't need to put anything inside the truck--there is PLENTY of storage. I kept my Miller high output box in the truck for easy access.
On the bed itself, there is plenty of illumination, both for work and on the highway. The diamond plate 1/8" steel deck is in PERFECT Condition.  There is also Fresh reflective tape all around.

Suspension is an Air Ride, and it is set up independently, so that you can adjust your ride according to your weight on one side or the other.  The bed is 92" wide and 8' long.
 You will be impressed with the quality and workmanship of every single welded joint in the bed.

No Rust.  Not anywhere, in the cab, chassis or the bed.  This truck is in EXCELLENT condition.  This is a Texas truck, in my name, currently registered and driven every day.
 This is a great truck, but I came into a nice '01 4x4 Crew Cab Duramax Diesel that I couldn't pass up for the price. I am NOT selling any of my welding equipment on the bed of the truck in the pictures EXCEPT THE vise, and I'm only selling that because I don't want anyone to have big holes at the back and not be able to get another vise with the same base--you won't find another Wilton like this for sale, anywhere, it has an 8" throat and is in near PRISTINE condition.
The truck is located at our home in Harker Heights, TX, about 9 minutes East of the Fort Hood Main Gate, 14 miles West of I-35 in Temple, TX, 55 minutes NNE of Austin, TX and 4.5 hours SSW of Dallas Fort Worth.
I will pick you up at the Killeen Airport and you can drive the truck to Bismark if you want. You won't have ANY issues with my truck.
TEXT or Voice call with your questions, or ask through E-Bay corrospondence.  I would prefer Pay Pal or Cash in person.  $500.00 non-refundable deposit due within 24 hrs of sale.  Thanks.

***19JAN2014  2030 hrs**** These questions have been asked by interested parties.  I am answering them  all here for everyone's benefit: 

Q:  Does the truck have good glow plugs? 

A:  The truck had all glow plugs replaced 560 miles ago.  At that time all the injectors were also replaced.  I elected to buy the complete system maintenance package; all glow plugs, injectors, pump and pressure lines.

Q: Does the truck have any known maintenance issues? 

A:  No, it's solid.  Recent maintenance was the entire front end was checked, aligned and new tires mounted and balanced.  The truck is hard to start on cold(er) mornings where the temp gets into the low 40's and below.  It DOES have a block heater installed and it IS operational; which makes cold morning starting easy.  Without it plugged in, below 45, she is a hard starting truck.

Q:  What gears are in the rear differential?

A:  Gear ratio is 4:56 gears.  That translates to a top speed of 65 mph under load.  She can pull anything you hook up to her.

Q: Is there any white smoke on cold-start?

A: Yes, there is a little, typical of a 6.5 TD with 233K miles, but no more than my '01 on cold start.

Q: Does the truck use any oil?

A: Yes, about 1/4 quart every 500 miles

Q:  Will you take a cash offer in person?

A:  Yes, check "Cars and Trucks," Craigslist, Killeen, TX, check search box "entire post," and enter "Welding Rig."  You will find my truck for sale locally with many more pictures.

Q:  Can the truck be ready to sell / picked up immediately?

A:  Yes.  I am a welder.  I have all the heavy equipment necessary to remove the equipment off the truck and have it ready for you immediately.  I meant what I said when I wrote:  "I will pick you up at the airport."  I will have, in the truck, 3 quarts of 15-40W oil and it will be full of gas.  That will get you to California or New York City.  The title is a Texas Title, in my name.  You can write in what you want on a Bill of Sale that will be placed in your hand at the airport.  I will do whatever I can to make the transition easy for you.  My truck deserves a good home.  It got me started and it got me a great job.  It will do the same for you.

GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem

Wed, Mar 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.

Chevy Express 1500, GMC Savana 1500 get the axe

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Fans of truck-based, light-duty vans can officially pour one out for the Chevrolet Express 1500 and GMC Savana 1500, as General Motors has officially put its long-serving big/little rigs out to pasture. Things aren't quite as sad as they sound, though. The heavier-duty 2500 and 3500 vans will soldier on, in order to duke it out with the largest members of Ram ProMaster, Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter families.
The move does seem to make a lot of sense. According to GM, customers only purchase the 1500-spec Chevrolet 23 percent of the time, while the GMC captures a mere 7 percent of the Savana family's sales. With numbers like that, it's no shock that GM thinks it can shift some of its buyers into its van family's more capable variants. "We knew we could move a lot of our 1500 customers into 2500-series territory," said GM's Joe Langhauser, the product manager for the company's full-size vans.
It's not just simple sales figures dictating the move, though. The 1500 line is taking up some valuable factory space that will be better spent on an eagerly anticipated new product.

Hummer EV SUV official range announced: 3X truck tops 350 miles

Fri, Apr 21 2023

The first run of GMC Hummer EVs were in one single specification: pickup truck in Edition 1 with all the off-road goodies. The most pertinent of those off-road upgrades to electric range being the 18-inch wheels with mud-terrain tires. And it was rated for 329 miles. But now, there are more Hummer variants. The pickup truck is now available with a 3X trim that comes standard with more efficient all-terrain tires wrapped around 22-inch wheels, and there's the SUV with both trims and both types of tires, not to mention a smaller battery pack. And now we have the official range estimates for them. We'll start with the Hummer EV SUV, since all of the official range ratings are new to us. The tires are the key factor, with the all-terrain equipped Edition 1 and 3X both managing 314 miles of range. Yes, this is less than even the mud-terrain-equipped truck, but that's mainly because the shorter length of the SUV means it has fewer battery cells and capacity. It has about 170 kWh of capacity versus the truck's 200+. Adding the Extreme Off-Road Package and its more aggressive tires drops range to 298 miles. The Four-Wheel-Steer system lets the 2022 GMC HUMMER EV Pickup m View 17 Photos As with the SUVs, the Hummer EV truck gets a solid range boost to 355 miles when it's not equipped with the off-road package. There's another benefit to the regular all-terrains on the Hummer EV truck: towing capacity. At 8,500 pounds, it can tow an extra 1,000 pounds over the models with the off-road package. GMC also notes that another potential benefit to the all-terrain-equipped trucks is a suspension tuned for better on-road handling. And our experience has shown that even Hummer with the off-road package isn't too shabby on pavement. Of course, skipping the off-road package will also save you some money, as will opting for the 3X trims. So unless you're really going off-road seriously, and would make regular use of the extra skid plates, under-truck camera and chunky tires, the standard suspension and tire setup really is the way to go.
