1994 GMC SLT 3500 Dually Extended cab. 2WD, 6.5L TD, A/T, cold A/C, Heat, dual batteries, electronic injector pump. Thousands in Brand NEW parts over the past three years. READY TO WORK, needs NOTHING but a driver and diesel--and it comes with a FULL tank of fresh diesel!
This is MY PERSONAL WORK TRUCK. This is a great work truck; uncommonly clean for it's year, new load range E tires, nice lines, good looking, well-maintained rig. Brand new everything mechanical, kept up with everything, just inspected, just passed, just registered--you won't have to do anything but pay for it, insure it and put it to work.   The Texas title is in my name.  The truck does have a full size spare, mounted under the bed in the stock location.  I have all the jack components, a bottle jack and OEM accessories that will come with the truck. 

New or recent:  Gas Tank, lift pump, electric injector pump, injectors (all), line, hoses, coolant flush, batteries, (dual), starter.
 Two sets of keys for ignition and all the locks on the chassis--which are included. So is the Wilton Vise. 
Trailer brakes, electric hook-ups for 5, 6 and seven-pin connectors. Gooseneck is on 1/2" plate tied into the frame of the bed. The bumper hitch 2" receiver is a class III/grade 10 hardware with dual-sided fillet welds.
You will not be disappointed. I have 200 hours+ in a custom made / modified 8' CM bed, with tank recesses, easy-lift gated / lockable tank access, (made so you only have to lift your tanks about 10 inches up).  The bed has tank locking chains, and are all double chain / tension secured.  LED lights throughout, RKI boxes--you name it, this is a very nice work truck. Has room in the RKI boxes for 20+ HD 100' extension cords, 300' of 02 ought lead(s), All your welding tools, cutting torches, line and regulators, 12T bottle jack and lug wrenches and as much rod, wire & gear as you can pack in. You can sleep in the back seat because you really don't need to put anything inside the truck--there is PLENTY of storage. I kept my Miller high output box in the truck for easy access.
On the bed itself, there is plenty of illumination, both for work and on the highway. The diamond plate 1/8" steel deck is in PERFECT Condition.  There is also Fresh reflective tape all around.

Suspension is an Air Ride, and it is set up independently, so that you can adjust your ride according to your weight on one side or the other.  The bed is 92" wide and 8' long.
 You will be impressed with the quality and workmanship of every single welded joint in the bed.

No Rust.  Not anywhere, in the cab, chassis or the bed.  This truck is in EXCELLENT condition.  This is a Texas truck, in my name, currently registered and driven every day.
 This is a great truck, but I came into a nice '01 4x4 Crew Cab Duramax Diesel that I couldn't pass up for the price. I am NOT selling any of my welding equipment on the bed of the truck in the pictures EXCEPT THE vise, and I'm only selling that because I don't want anyone to have big holes at the back and not be able to get another vise with the same base--you won't find another Wilton like this for sale, anywhere, it has an 8" throat and is in near PRISTINE condition.
The truck is located at our home in Harker Heights, TX, about 9 minutes East of the Fort Hood Main Gate, 14 miles West of I-35 in Temple, TX, 55 minutes NNE of Austin, TX and 4.5 hours SSW of Dallas Fort Worth.
I will pick you up at the Killeen Airport and you can drive the truck to Bismark if you want. You won't have ANY issues with my truck.
TEXT or Voice call with your questions, or ask through E-Bay corrospondence.  I would prefer Pay Pal or Cash in person.  $500.00 non-refundable deposit due within 24 hrs of sale.  Thanks.

***19JAN2014  2030 hrs**** These questions have been asked by interested parties.  I am answering them  all here for everyone's benefit: 

Q:  Does the truck have good glow plugs? 

A:  The truck had all glow plugs replaced 560 miles ago.  At that time all the injectors were also replaced.  I elected to buy the complete system maintenance package; all glow plugs, injectors, pump and pressure lines.

Q: Does the truck have any known maintenance issues? 

A:  No, it's solid.  Recent maintenance was the entire front end was checked, aligned and new tires mounted and balanced.  The truck is hard to start on cold(er) mornings where the temp gets into the low 40's and below.  It DOES have a block heater installed and it IS operational; which makes cold morning starting easy.  Without it plugged in, below 45, she is a hard starting truck.

Q:  What gears are in the rear differential?

A:  Gear ratio is 4:56 gears.  That translates to a top speed of 65 mph under load.  She can pull anything you hook up to her.

Q: Is there any white smoke on cold-start?

A: Yes, there is a little, typical of a 6.5 TD with 233K miles, but no more than my '01 on cold start.

Q: Does the truck use any oil?

A: Yes, about 1/4 quart every 500 miles

Q:  Will you take a cash offer in person?

A:  Yes, check "Cars and Trucks," Craigslist, Killeen, TX, check search box "entire post," and enter "Welding Rig."  You will find my truck for sale locally with many more pictures.

Q:  Can the truck be ready to sell / picked up immediately?

A:  Yes.  I am a welder.  I have all the heavy equipment necessary to remove the equipment off the truck and have it ready for you immediately.  I meant what I said when I wrote:  "I will pick you up at the airport."  I will have, in the truck, 3 quarts of 15-40W oil and it will be full of gas.  That will get you to California or New York City.  The title is a Texas Title, in my name.  You can write in what you want on a Bill of Sale that will be placed in your hand at the airport.  I will do whatever I can to make the transition easy for you.  My truck deserves a good home.  It got me started and it got me a great job.  It will do the same for you.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

GM files for Z71 Trail Boss trademark

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Try as they might to keep their plans a secret, automakers have their hands tipped through a variety of methods – be they through loose lips, spy shots or patent and trademark applications. That's how we know, in this instance, that General Motors is working on (or at least considering) an off-road machine wearing the name Z71 Trail Boss – the name which our compatriots at AutoGuide.com tell us that GM has registered for use on light-duty trucks. Now if that alphanumeric designator sounds familiar, it should. GM has long used it to designate the off-road packages on many of its body-on-frame trucks from Chevy and GMC. These days you can order a Z71 package on the Chevy Colorado, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban and on the GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon. The package typically includes components like a beefed-up suspension bits, high-capacity air cleaner and underbody protection plates. The Trail Boss designator would seem to suggest something further reaching than a suspension package, though. Just what it would entail we don't know; minds immediately start running toward Chevy or GMC going after the Ford F-150 Raptor, but we'll likely be looking at something closer to the Trailhawk packages Jeep offers on the likes of the Renegade and Cherokee.

Deep discounts — $12K, $13K, $16K — are fueling a pickup price war

Mon, Jun 4 2018

Heavy discounts of up to $16,000 per vehicle are fueling a "truck war" among full-size pickups sold in the United States by the Detroit Three, a Reuters analysis shows. Strong U.S. sales this year of the highly profitable big trucks have helped offset lagging passenger car sales. But it is not clear how much of the truck demand is linked directly to ample factory incentives and dealer discounts, or how far sales might decline without those subsidies. A Reuters survey of Ford, General Motors Co's Chevrolet and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles's Ram truck dealers across the United States indicates stores are offering deep discounts the country's bestselling full-size pickup trucks. "The walls are not crashing down on full-size trucks," said Sam Fiorani, vice president of global vehicle forecasting at AutoForecast Solutions in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania. Detroit-based automakers want to keep cranking out their high-margin trucks, he added, and "giving up a little of the profit is the cheapest way to do it." Stores are offering discounts of up to $12,000 on the 2018 Ford F-150, which remains the best-selling vehicle in the country, recording more than 80,000 sales in May. Discounts run up to $13,000 on the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado and as high as $16,000 on the Ram 1500. Average transaction prices for full-size pick-ups range from around $42,000 to $45,000, industry analysts and automakers say. All three companies are spending furiously - GM and Fiat Chrysler to help sell off carryover 2018 trucks to prepare for redesigned 2019 models, and Ford to sustain its long-held sales crown. A supplier fire that temporarily shut down production of the F-150 last month "changed the game," said Jeff Schuster, senior vice president of forecasting at LMC Automotive in Troy, Michigan said. The supply halt nudged Ford's crosstown rivals "to ratchet up incentives on the current models to go after weakness at Ford," he said. Deals advertised on the companies' official websites range from rebates and low-interest loans to ultra-cheap lease rates, but they are not telling the whole story. Ford, for instance, advertises a $2,000 rebate and a $500 financing credit on sales of certain F-150 models. But James Collins Ford in Louisville, Kentucky, is offering discounts of up to $12,215 on the 2018 F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4x4. The price cuts are even steeper at a number of GM and Fiat Chrysler dealers. Quirk Chevrolet is selling the 2018 Silverado 1500 Double Cab at $13,000 off sticker.
