Hello viewers,you are looking at a nice fairly stock 1987 GMC truck that i've had stored away for 12yrs. Ya,i know it sounds crazy,but this is the truth, I am actually the 3rd owner.the I bought this from a local guy whom had purchased a new crate 355 small block,and had the original turbo 400 trans rebuilt,and got in a little over his head on putting it together. I drove by his place often back in the early 2000's,and asked him what he was going to do with it,as i had seen it dismantled for quite a while,and the body looked great,he said he was going to redo it. A couple months later,he came to me,and asked me if i wanted it,as he wanted to get all the money back for the eng/trans,and the fact that the body was nice,so i grabbed it. I put it back together driveline wise quickly,but then had our first child,and the regular cab wasn't going to fly,so it was parked,and just started,and drove around the block and such,just to keep things moving internally,which in my opinion is very important. The engine runs strong,and has excellent oil pressure,shifts well,the four wheel drive works fine,and has new lock outs on it. In the summer of 2012 I pulled it in from the storage building to the shop,sanded it down to bare metal,as they old grey paint was cracking, but the truck really didn't have much for rust,so had repainted it professionally,and had a new windshield installed,and took it to the local exhaust shop,and had new duals put on it,all the way out the back sides. It has a nice diamondplate toolbox in it. This truck is the first year of fuel inj,as i know of,and has had 2 new inj already installed,a new fuel tank,and pump. The only things that i can think of that may need addressed are- the fuel gauge isn't always accurate,the cruise control is Not hooked up,as i never got the components from him,and the tires that are on it are so/so,but already bought a nice set of 4 matching GOOD YEAR 31/10.50/15'S, and HAVE MOUNTED THEM SINCE PHOTO. These are the factory aluminum wheels in pics,and the original spare is still under the bed . The frame was cleaned,and painted when the bed was off,and the underside of the bed was repainted also. This truck has never been jacked up,or hacked up,it is as said fairly stock,bt looks very nice,and drives well,and i encourage a viewer to look at it in person,or send someone to view. This truck is used,and 25yrs old,so i DO NOT IMPLY ANY TYPE OF WARRANTY,it is exactly what i am explaining,and if you wish for additional pics,or info,please ask. I have about $11,000 in this jewel,and know i won't get it back,but will expect to get something,or it will just go back into storage until my next midlife crisis. Now down to bidding,or offers,as said,would like you,or someone to check it out,if not keep in mind,out of all these yrs,it has been drove only to the exhaust shop,and my daughters school,so don't make an offer unless your serious. This is a NON A/C TRUCK ALSO. IF you bid,and i accept,i wish to have a $500.00 deposit through paypal,and the rest in cash,or good bank money order within 3 days,unless prior spoke of. Thank you for viewing,and please ask ?'s if needed,- and if your wondering if i take partial trades= only if it's a kool pontiac,or chevy,thanks folks

What the electric Hummer's size and weight means for its efficiency
Sat, Dec 3 2022The 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1. Tim Levin/Insider If you think driving a pint-sized Nissan Leaf is as good for the planet as driving a huge electric Hummer, think again. The GMC Hummer EV uses significantly more electricity than other EVs, meaning it produces more pollution upstream. The electric Hummer weighs 9,000 pounds and its battery weighs as much as a Honda Civic. The new electric Hummer rolls through town without a deafening engine rumble or a cloud of toxic fumes, but it doesn't exactly tread lightly. The colossal truck weighs an astonishing 9,000 pounds. (Think two Toyota Tacomas, three Honda Civics, or 24 Shaquille O'Neals.) Moreover, the GMC Hummer EV is in many ways a supersized gas guzzler for a new era. It repackages many of the same flaws of hulking SUVs and trucks of years past — and proves not all zero-emission cars are created equal. EVs can be energy guzzlers too On the whole, electric cars use less energy than gas-powered ones. But they aren't all equally efficient. No surprise here: The Hummer needs more electricity than any other EV on the market to move its elephantine frame. The Environmental Protection Agency rates the pickup at 47 MPGe (miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent). For comparison, the Tesla Model 3 sedan is nearly three times as efficient, earning a rating of 132 MPGe. The Ford F-150 Lightning, another electric truck, gets 70 MPGe. This has real consequences: Since the US gets 61% of its energy from oil, coal, and natural gas, the more electricity a car needs, the more pollution it creates upstream. As the Union of Concerned Scientists put it: "Both EV cars and trucks are much cleaner than their gasoline counterparts, but electric trucks are responsible for more global warming emissions than electric cars simply because trucks are larger and heavier." The 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1. Tim Levin/Insider The Hummer EV is also resource-intensive to manufacture, requiring a ginormous (and weighty) battery to give people the 300-plus miles of range they desire. You could produce three Chevrolet Bolts with the same battery cells consumed by one Hummer.
GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak
Wed, Sep 24 2014General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana
GM re-recalls 11k SUVs
Tue, Oct 13 2015General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.
