1 Ton Single Cab 4x4 Diesel Gmc Sierra on 2040-cars
Vienna, Illinois, United States
|
Original 1 ton GMC Sierra pickup truck. I have owned this truck for 20 years. I bought the truck in 1994 off of a dealer in Fox Lake Illinois. The truck had around 80,000 miles on it when I bought it. I mainly drove this truck when I was in High School. At the time I was not looking for a truck with a lift, but it was already on it when I bought it. The truck has a 4 inch lift so it is not excessive and looks good. I have always kept this truck shedded since I have owned it. It currently sits in the pole barn covered up. The mice have not been in it. I start it up about once every three months to keep mechanical parts working, motor lubed ect. I am selling the truck because I need to reduce my fleet of vehicles. I also do not want to keep paying insurance on it since I do not drive it. I have spent a lot of money on this truck over the years, way more than what it is worth to keep it original. I have replaced the radiator. Right after I bought it from the dealer it had a small leak so I changed the whole radiator. The doors, bed sides, tail gait are new. The lights on the tailgate are original with the 1 ton package at the time. It has been painted back to original midnight Black, factory color. The body man put extra clear coat on for extreme protection . Several years back the dash started cracking so I replaced it with a new one. The headliner has been replaced and is still good shape, this was a common problems with these older trucks. The seat is in good shape, I always had a seat cover on it to keep it nice. I fixed the steering column because it got loose along with the ignition switch. It has tilt wheel. The windshield wiper control lever is new. All the gauges work. The transfer case was rebuilt by a local 4x4 shop. When they rebuilt this they went ahead and put in a new clutch, throw out bearing, new u joints, seals, ect . The brakes are like new. The tires have less than 5000 miles on them, so they are in good shape. It has a 4 speed transmission with 4:10 gear ratio Dana 70 rear end. The power windows work. The engine runs good, no major leaks. The engine has been completely rebuilt over the years. The block was shipped off to St. Louis to be fixed back in 1995. I had the heads magnafluxed, welded and resurfaced by Mac Weld in Carbondale IL. It has hydraulic lifters on the heads. Everything was always put back original down to the wiring, no half jobs. I put new head bolts on the heads when they were installed back. The glow plugs work good, they have been changed over the years. When I had the body work done, I changed one fuel tank out, so one is newer than the other. No leaks on the tanks. The motor has its usual blow by. The motor is around 370 Cubic inch displacement detroit engine, not the converted 5.9. The batteries are in good shape. It has two batteries purchased september 2011. I never smoked in this truck. I never mudded this truck. I did my best to keep the truck original. Some extras I added to it over the years was a bug shield, full set of running boards, visor and bed caps. Sliding window was factory original. I like the looks of the old GM trucks and really would miss the truck. Any other questions you can call me at 618-771-2363. |

Next Chevy Silverado could get this built-in tailgate step
Thu, Feb 2 2017General Motors just received patent approval for a tailgate step in a pickup bed. And given the timing, don't be surprised if you see this on the upcoming 2019 Silverado pickup (not the mention its GMC Sierra twin), expected to arrive in late 2018. According to the patent, granted in December of last year, the whole mechanism is housed in the tailgate assemble. The magic happens when a portion of the top half of the tailgate swings down and a step folds out. There's also a handle that locks into position to help climb up into the bed. As trucks get bigger and taller over the years, it gets harder and harder to access the cargo bed. Ford's solution with the 2009 F-150 was a step that slides out from the end of the tailgate. Back then, Chevy made an ill-advised ad highlighting the feature for Ford. And while Howie Long mocked the F-150's "man step" Ford saw almost a third of its trucks with the option in the first year. The GM design seems to improve on Ford's idea as it appears to be wider and has a back to the lower step. That is, you don't have to worry about stepping through the ladder-rung design as on the F-150. Ford's tailgate step later spread to the F Super Duty, and other cargo access assists have proliferated through the truck world. On the most recent redesign, the Chevrolet Silverado took a trick from the Avalanche and added cutouts to the corners of the rear bumper that act as a foothold. Ford also offers a deployable side step, Chevrolet has running boards that scoot rearward with a kick of the boot, and Ram offers fixed wheel-to-wheel side rails. Nissan is in on the game too, with an optional folding step that tucks under the rear bumper. We don't expect Chevrolet to comment on when or if we'll see this feature in the showrooms. But given that engineers are already hard at work on the next Silverado and the timing of this patent lines right up with the new truck's development cycle, we'll be disappointed if this patent stays in the file cabinet.

2015 GMC Canyon gets the party started [w/video]
Sun, 12 Jan 2014The 2014 Detroit Auto Show press days officially kick off tomorrow, but the night before all the madness commences, General Motors drove its new 2015 GMC Canyon pickup truck out for all to see. To refresh your memory, the Canyon is GMC's new midsize pickup - essentially a re-skinned version of the Chevrolet Colorado that debuted at the LA Auto Show in November.
Many of us at Autoblog prefer the look of the larger GMC Sierra to that of its Chevy Silverado kin, and we're having similar feelings about the new Canyon, especially after seeing it in person. It's sort of a pint-sized version of the Sierra, and it looks great. Clean lines are found throughout, and the Canyon's styling is decidedly premium.
At launch, the Canyon will be offered with the same engines as the Colorado - a 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine with 193 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque on the base end, and a larger 3.6-liter V6 with 302 hp and 270 lb-ft as an option. The Colorado's 2.8-liter diesel inline four-cylinder will be available after launch. Both two- and four-wheel drive configurations will be available, depending on the model.
A spotter's guide to Super Bowl LIV car commercials
Fri, Jan 31 2020Set to kick off on Fox at 6:30 ET on Sunday, February 2, from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, the big game will feature the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Throughout Super Bowl LIV, viewers will see about 50 commercials, each of which costs as much as $5.6 million per 30 seconds, according to AdWeek. Originally, there were more than 77 ad slots, so several companies could be paying well more than $10 million for a single, longer commercial. Numerous car companies have already announced their commercials, or their intentions to show commercials, during the game. Here's a roundup of the ones we know about so far. During the game on Sunday, we'll be livestreaming and adding links to the new commercials as they become available, so check back with us for that post. Audi: E-Tron Sportback Maisie Williams has experience wearing many faces, and in Audi's Super Bowl commercial, she does her best Elsa impression. In the spot, titled "Let It Go," Williams faces the rigorous task of getting through L.A. traffic, but she's alleviated by the comfort of the Audi E-Tron Sportback electric crossover. The commercial is meant to signal the company leaving its gas past behind and moving forward to a sustainable future. Genesis: GV80 Genesis makes its Super Bowl debut with a commercial that will show its all-new SUV, the GV80, to viewers around the world (many of which will be seeing the vehicle for the first time). The ad features Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as the purveyors of "new luxury," while "old luxury" is left for the birds. GMC: Hummer General Motors is bringing back the Hummer nameplate as a premium electric GMC truck. GM says it will have 1,000 horsepower and will be capable of going zero to 60 mph in three seconds. GM brought in NBA legend and Hummer fanboy LeBron James for the debut commercial. Hyundai: Sonata Hyundai is known for bringing in the big-time celebrities for its commercials, and 2020 is no different. A new advertisement called "Smaht Pahk" features John Krasinski, Chris Evans, and Rachel Dratch, all three of whom are from the Boston area. The trio gets into full character as they discuss the new high-tech parking feature on the redesigned 2020 Hyundai Sonata, and David Ortiz makes a cameo at the end. Even when New England isn't in the Super Bowl, New England is in the Super Bowl.
