1999 Gmc Safari Sl Extended Cargo Van 3-door 4.3l Astro Van Explorer Edition on 2040-cars
Hialeah, Florida, United States
Up for auction is my next door neighbors 1999 GMC Safari Explorer Edition van. She is an elderly woman who bought a smaller car to get around town. This van is in good condition considering the year. Has many power options such as power windows, power door locks (relay was removed because she kept locking herself out accidentally. I will try to get the relay so that you may put it to work again) cruise control, rear Air conditioning unit, Orignal full surround stereo system, 4 captain chairs, rear passenger seat swivels out for comfort, rear beach seat folds down and becomes a bed/sofa. Many aux and power outlets and cup holders through out the van. Has curtains and roof lighting. Its basically the trailers dream van or great for the family and kids. The motor is a Vortec V-6 very economical and reliable. Transmission with over drive great for the high way. Very comfortable ride and cheap for the wallet. Has new brakes all around, suspension is good, shocks maybe needed in the future but not at the moment. The tires are good but have only been used around town as you could calculate the mileage from when she bought it til now she doesn't travel much. I would recommend that you revise before putting extra mileage on them. Fresh oil change van was always very well maintained. The Air conditioning system is new and blows ice cold front and rear. Van has 260,714 miles on the body but motor was rebuilt at 205,000 miles and transmission was rebuilt at 190,000 miles. Previous owners before my neighbor were a elderly retired couple that bought the van to travel the united states. So most of the ware and tear is just long road trips. My neighbor hates to see it go because it is a great van for her and the grandkids but she herself has gotten old and it is to big for her to drive, she has been the owner sense 01/14/2003 and got it with 218,515 miles. as it says on the clear title. Seems like alot of mileage but i have driven this van myself and it rides like really good in my opinion considering it is a 14-15 year old van and original paint, it has been well maintained and kept as clean as possible by her. If you have any questions please ask before bidding or if you need any additional pictures let me know and i"ll be happy to get them to you. Van is sold "as is" "where is" and with no warranties implied. Van is also for sale locally so i reserve the right to end auction early. Deposit of $500 is due 24 hours after auction ending to be sent to my paypal account, remaining balance is due with in 7 days after auction ends. You may choose to pick up the van or transport it. If you choose to pick it up and drive it away you must transfer the title to your name. If you are out of state and choose to transport i will send you a bill of sale for you to sign and send back to me. This is for her records so she is not responsible for anything that may happen. |

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience
Thu, 29 Nov 2012JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
2015 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra can tow up to 12,000 pounds
Thu, 19 Jun 2014Think back to the launch of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado. At the time, General Motors happily trumpeted that its fullsize pickup could tow up to 11,500 pounds when properly equipped - impressive stuff, no doubt. But now, revised tow rating practices have been put into place, called SAE J2807. And with these new methods of testing, GM can now officially rate both the Silverado and its GMC Sierra twin as being able to tow up to 12,000 pounds.
Of course, not all Silverado and Sierra models are capable of this feat. In fact, because of SAE J2807, most of the truck models have actually had decreases in tow ratings from the 2014 to 2015 model year. For example, a 2014 Silverado Crew Cab with the 5.3-liter V8, 5.7-foot box and 3.73 rear axle was rated at 11,200 pounds in 2014, but has since been reduced to 10,800 in 2015. Same goes for the Sierra.
But for 2015, both the Silverado and Sierra can be had with a more powerful 6.2-liter V8, as well as a Max Trailering Package that includes a 9.76-inch rear axle, heavy-duty rear springs, revised shock tuning, improved cooling and a new trailer brake controller. There are also four- and seven-pin, bumper-mounted connectors, a trailer hitch (duh), and a G80 locking rear differential. This configuration, with either model, is the only way you can actually tow 12,000 pounds.
