92 Chevy K1500 4x4 Extended Cab Long Bed on 2040-cars
Licking, Missouri, United States
O.K. Here's the story on this one. I was needing a vehicle and didn't have a lot of money so I worked a trade for this truck. I traded a Savage model 110 25-06 with 500 rnds of ammo, and a CZ83 .380 acp with 200 rnds of ammo for it. I didn't know the vehicle had a salvage title until I took possession. The person I got it from assured me that it was dependable and never failed to start and drive. I took the vehicle home and realized that the truck had no heat. I ordered a radiator for the truck, but before it came in, the cv joints went bad. I had the complete half shafts replaced. Two days later, the starter messed up and I bought a rebuilt starter for it. The radiator came in and I replaced the radiator. As I was taking the old radiator out, I noticed that there was a lot of red clay deposits in the cooling system so I flushed the engine out and replaced the thermostat. When I got the new radiator in, the transmission decided to start failing. I replaced the transmission filter and gasket and put 10 quarts of fluid to get the level back to normal. This didn't help and the transmission shifts slowly thru the forward gears and doesn't work in reverse. This happened immediately after changing the radiator so I don't know if that had something to do with it. I am tired of having to climb under this vehicle every other day in this cold weather so I am extending this project on to you. Total cost so far:
2 guns and ammo: $1700.00 Tires, pitman arm, idler arm, and sway bar kit: $1154.05 Starter: $50.00 Tailgate: $50.00 Radiator: $70.00 Half shafts (2): $294.79 Total Investment: $3319.00 |

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra introduced
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
