Chagrin Falls, Ohio, United States

Second owner, bought the vehicle from the original owner in 2010 where it spent its whole life barn kept and daily driven in southern Ohio. When I bought the truck it needed some TLC, here is a quick list.

Shocks were dead, replaced with lifetime Rancho's
Fuel pump is six months old
Tailgate window was stuck closed so I removed it and rebuilt the whole thing (currently works well)
New exhaust including catalytic converter
New rims, chrome accents trim and tires (about half life left)
Brakes all around are rebuilt
Sound system was crappy paper cone type, fully replaced with Sony head unit and Infinity speakers


Eventually needs depending on what you consider need:

-Alignment
-Paint is sun damaged bad and will need to be resprayed if you feel the need, I have painted hood, roof and tailgate. (paint included)
-Ohio truck, metal under seats and cross member is rotting. I bought the truck with this issue, it has not gotten worse and has not caused an issue. I tow with it, and drive it regularly but who ever buys should be aware; I included images of problem area.
-Fuel door spring broke; replacements I have tried don't fit right so I drive it with out one. (have original)
-Front speaker install: I put the rears in but the fronts need a hole to go in, I couldn't bring myself to do it, maybe you can. Speakers are brand new and come with the truck.
-Park brake light is stuck on though the brake is not active.
-Engine temp gauge has been broke since I bought it, can not figure out why, no overheating issues.

I may be forgetting a few minor things, please ask first and message me if you would like to see the vehicle. I have no problem meeting you to show the vehicle or answering your questions; truck has no warranty and is being sold as-is.

Pictures are from this summer, Thank you very much for looking.

OnStar RemoteLink mobile app coming standard on all new GM vehicles

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

As an evolution and improvement of its OnStar technology, General Motors has announced that it will be expanding the RemoteLink Mobile App on most 2014 model year Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles. The new, aptly named RemoteLink Key Fob Services will allow users to remotely operate all of the same systems as the car's key fob, including locking and unlocking the doors and remote starting (on vehicles equipped with a factory remote starter) using a smartphone.
These Key Fob Services will be free for five years - starting from the vehicle's delivery date - but the full suite of RemoteLink features will continue to be offered only with a subscription (trial or paid). These premium features include contacting a live adviser, getting turn-by-turn directions and remotely monitoring the vehicle's diagnostic systems.

2015 GMC Canyon

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

As discussed earlier today, the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado is a new standout in terms of midsize trucks. But the Colorado wasn't the only pickup the General Motors team brought to San Diego for us to sample. Also along for the ride was a pack of GMC Canyons, the slightly more expensive and polished platform-mate to the Chevy.
There's no question that the Canyon and the Colorado are a lot alike under the skin - almost entirely, in fact - so GMC has worked to first create some daylight between the two trucks by way of sheetmetal. This is most obvious from the front view, where the blocky and blingy GMC grille replaces the more subdued tone and shape seen on the Chevy's nose. Projector headlights with LED running lights come as standard, and, again, with the squared-off look that is typical of the brand. 16-inch aluminum wheels come stock on the GMC, too, with the 17-inchers seen on my photo truck offered as standard equipment on the top-trim SLT.
GMC considers the Canyon to be the only premium truck in the segment (which is clearly true), and the team has spent a ton of time and effort to get the interior correct to prove out that point. "Any trim that looks like metal, is metal," I was told at the product briefing, a certain indication that the company is serious about bringing a new class of buyer to a truck segment that it hopes to redefine.

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.
