i bought this in November 2012 and was my daily driver till i bought my tahoe, i dont need a pickup any more, it runs and drives great, leaks nothing, doesnt smoke, and doesnt make ANY noises, it was very well maintained before me and i followed suit.. 

i rebuilt the brake system right after last seasons snow, calipers, pads, rear brakes, replaced the rear brake lines and fuel lines cause they looked a little crusty, the AC blows cold, and the heat is hot, all power options work as the should and does the push button 4x4 system, the 3rd door opens and closes nicely, as does the tailgate, BUT, the tailgate latch rod needs a little help most of the time so instead of yanking and pulling the handle, i lift the handle and help the rod pull the latch.. not too much effort is required, i think the actual handle assembly should be changed but anyhow

ive had ZERO issues with this truck, ive driven this truck cross country and im confident the truck will drive cross country endlessly..

this truck is originally equipped with a trailer tow package, cold weather package which is an engine block heater and snow plow package which was nothing but heavier front torsion bars to support the additional weight,  and a larger amp alternator.. 


the RT3 plow system works flawlessly, its the quick hitch system, so all you do is line up the truck with the plow, plug it in and hit a switch, it pulls and locks itself onto the truck side hydraulically

aside front that, this is a 1997 truck, if you want a new truck, go to a dealer, this one has bumps and bruises, scrapes and scratches and obviously that rusted out panel behind the drivers door, but mechanically, its sound and ready to work or play, 

i cut out the rust on that cab corner and primered it end of last winter and i left it at that.. that front bumper hit was there when i bought it, i do have a clean and straight front bumper that will be sold with the truck, 

im selling this to buy a 4x4 atv. so im open to offers for trade

2018 GMC Terrain loses the V6 and gains a diesel for an all-turbo lineup

Mon, Jan 9 2017

You may have noticed that compact crossovers are kind of a big deal these days. After eight years on sale, GMC is finally getting a new version of its littlest ute, the Terrain, for 2018. And it can't arrive a moment too soon. The 2018 GMC Terrain made its debut tonight on the eve of the 2017 Detroit Auto Show. The 2018 Terrain looks to be completely new, and is now built on GM's D2XX platform. It again shares a platform and major components with the Chevrolet Equinox; like the 2018 Equinox, the Terrain will offer three engines, including two turbocharged gas four-cylinders and a turbodiesel four. The base 1.5-liter gas four makes 170 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque, while the 2.0-liter inline-four puts out 252 hp and 262 lb-ft. (The 2.0 basically takes the place of the 3.6-liter V6 offered in the outgoing Terrain.) GM's 1.6-liter diesel four will also be available, making 137 hp and 240 lb-ft of torque in this application. Both gas engines will be paired with nine-speed automatic transmissions, while the diesel gets a six-speed auto. No fuel-economy claims have been made, but we expect the new models to outdo the current versions, with the diesel reaching around 40 mpg on the EPA highway cycle. View 14 Photos The new Terrain's design is equally fresh and does a good job of differentiating it from the related Equinox, with details very reminiscent of the new GMC Acadia. The lighting elements are even more intricate here, with LEDs used for the daytime running lights and taillamps. GMC designers gave it the floating-roof look, which is successful aside from the odd placement of a trim badge at the base of the D-pillar. Terrains will again be available in SL, SLE, SLT, and range-topping Denali trim, with the latter featuring the signature satin chrome grille, chrome accents, and monochrome paint scheme GMC uses on all of its top-trim models. The interior sees an upgrade in materials and a more-thoughtful layout, with a new version of GM's Electronic Precision Shift gear selector using buttons and switches instead of a lever to open up more space on the center console. Both front- and all-wheel-drive models get a Traction Select system that will tune the shift points and throttle points for specific driving conditions via a knob at the rear of the console. On models equipped with all-wheel drive, a front-drive mode disconnects the rear axle to improve fuel economy.

GM recalling Silverado and Sierra HD diesel pickups over fuel gauge follies

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

General Motors is recalling 9,733 of its heavy-duty twins over concerns with their 6.6-liter diesel engines and dual fuel tanks. The recall covers some Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from model years 2012 and 2013, although the exact dates that the recalled trucks were built isn't specified. There's also no mention of how many models come from Chevrolet and how many are from GMC.
The problem rests with the transfer pump responsible for moving fuel from the rear tank to the front tank - it could fail, resulting in an inaccurate fuel gauge. It hardly requires explaining, but a faulty fuel gauge could leave drivers in a situation where they run out of diesel.
GM will begin notifying customers of affected vehicles, who will be asked to report to their dealers for a free replacement transfer pump.

Watch GM's new pickup crash its way to five-star NHTSA ratings

Thu, 09 Jan 2014

General Motors has just scored a big win with its Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks, acing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration New Car Assessment Program. The two full-size trucks had already netted a five-star Overall Vehicle Score in their crew-cab variants, but the new testing certifies them as five-star trucks in both regular and double-cab bodystyles, so GM's trucks offer top ratings across the board.
"Our incredibly capable trucks have been engineered to be some of the safest," Gay Kent, GM's general director of Vehicle Safety and Crashworthiness said. "We've designed the vehicle structure, strategically placed high-strength steel and developed the occupant restraint system to achieve high levels of safety performance."
The scores mark the Silverado and Sierra as the first pickups to net five-star scores since NHTSA beefed up their testing regime in 2011, a nice feather in GM's cap as it continues to slug out the pickup truck wars with crosstown rivals Ford and Ram.
