This auction is for the sale of my Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Pickup truck. The combination of the DuraMax Diesel and Allison Transmission make it the ideal combination of power and economy for towing. I use it to tow my race car. I previously had a Dodge Dually 3500 with the Cummins diesel, and this rig tows better, and returns better economy. I get up to 21 MPG on the highway unladen, and up to 15 MPG towing my race car and trailer (7,200 #)

The 4WD gets you out of rough terrain situations when needed, and it would make an excellent snow plowing machine, even though I never plowed with this unit. It comes with a Class IV hitch receiver. The one Ton rating comes as a Single Rear Wheel arrangement rather than a Dually, and I find it to actually be better for my application. I can park the unit easier in tight spots, I save on tolls fees on Toll Roads like the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway, and the slimmer lines seem to contribute to better fuel milage. All this with very little sacrifice of GVW Rating.

I bought this truck about 3 years ago with 140,000 miles on it, and it has been a flawless performer. It has never let me down. The previous owner never towed with this vehicle. He used it to deliver show dogs back and forth to Viginia, so the early part of the vehicles life and the majority of the accumulated milage has been light duty usage. I've only towed my low stressed trailer for the last 15,000 miles, so overall wear and tear on the vehicle is about as low as you can find. It is certainly not even at Half-Life status.

The reason for selling this rig is the need to move on to a higher capacity vehicle due to an expansive effort with the race car that will demand a larger trailer that can haul more equipment. I am so sold on this Trucks mechanical combination of DuraMax and Allison, that I have chosen to stay with GMC and have selected the TopKick-Kodiak series for the longer wheelbase/load capacity that they offer.

I have just installed new tires up front and the backs will take you anywhere you want to go for at least another 12,000 miles. I am not aware of this truck needing anything. I merely turn the key, and off I go. I am an Industrial forklift mechanic by trade and I religiously change the oil and filters every 5,000 miles using the best Synthetic oils and filters. The interior is in excellent, near new condition which is a reflection of the light duty usage.

The only body flaw can be found in the picture that shows an area on the left rear corner (below the 4X4 decal) that has been disturbed by the previous owners relative that accidently backed into the truck while maneuvering in her driveway. There is slight deformation of the sheetmetal, and I often thought I would take care of the damage myself, but it constantly gets put off because it doesn't look that bad. I think a little work with a soft plastic hammer could straightened out the area, and it doesn't even need paint.

Review the pictures and you will find added extras like Window rain guards, tinted glass, a HD GM bed liner, AM-FM CD Sirius Radio, Floor mats, Full length entry step bar under both doors, and more. The high quality lo-profile fiberglass cap keeps the wind resistance low and contributes to the highest milage attainable. It also lets you park the truck under low clearance garage door spaces.

Check my flawless E-Bay rating to put your mind at ease in acquiring this trouble free truck.

Any further questions will be answered by my Home phone (908) 534-5341 between 6:00 PM and 10:00 PM (EST) or cell phone (609) 847-0738 during the day. Please don't call after 10:00 PM (EST).

I would prefer local pickup , but will consider delivery at reasonable cost.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
