I JUST MOVED BACK TO CHICAGO FROM FLORIDA IN JANUARY 2013. USED MY TRUCK TO HAUL A TRAILER TO GET ME BACK HERE. I NOW LONGER HAVE A NEED FOR SUCH A LARGE TRUCK. THIS TRUCK IS A BASE MODEL REGULAR CAB, 2WD, V6, AUTOMATIC, WHITE, AM/FM RADIO, RUBBER FLOORS, LONG BED. 
I ADDED FACTORY CRUISE CONTROL, AFTERMARKET POWER WINDOWS AND A CLASS 4 HITCH. THIS TRUCK HAS 277,000 MILES ONLY BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS OWNER PUT A 3.73 REAR AXLE IN IT. THE ORIGINAL AXLE RATIO SHOULD BE 3.23 SO WITH THE 3.73 RATIO IN IT NOW THE MILEAGE IS HIGHER THAN IT ACTUALLY IS. I PURCHASED A POWER PROGRAMMER IN JANUARY TO FIX THIS ISSUE. WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK THE SPEEDO WAS READING 10 MPH FASTER THAN THE ACTUAL SPEED OF THE TRUCK SO YOU CAN SEE HOW FAST THE MILEAGE WILL INCREASE. NOW THAT THIS IS OUT OF THE WAY HERE IS ALL THE WORK I DID TO IT TO PREPARE FOR THE TRIP BACK HOME. TRUCK GOT 14 MPG TOWING A 3000 LBS ENCLOSED TRAILER AND ~ 1000 LBS IN THE BED. NOT BAD AT ALL. I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK DAILY UP UNTIL A COUPLE WEEKS AGO. TITLE HAS BEEN CHANGED OVER TO AN ILLINOIS TITLE NOW AND IT IS IN MY HAND READY FOR A NEW OWNER. THIS IS A WORK TRUCK SO IT DOES HAVE MINOR DAMAGE AND DINGS. YOU WONT FIND A BETTER WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLE.

I REPLACED THE FOLLOWING PARTS IN JANUARY:
CAP
ROTOR
PLUG WIRES
SERPENTINE BELT TENSIONER
E3 DIAMOND FIRE SPARK PLUGS
LEFT TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACED
REAR MAIN SEAL
OIL PAN GASKET
BOTH ENGINE MOTOR MOUNTS
TRANSMISSION MOUNT
FRONT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS
REAR BRAKE SHOES AND DRUMS
MOBILE 1 SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGES
SYNTHETIC DEXTRON 5 TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE
TRANSGO SHIFT KIT INSTALLED
SYNTHETIC DIFFERENTIAL FLUID CHANGE
FLUSHED BRAKE FLUID
FLUSHED COOLING SYSTEM
FLUSHED POWER STEERING FLUID
INSTALLED CLASS 4 HITCH
INSTALLED OEM CRUISE CONTROL MODULE AND STALK
INSTALLED AFTERMARKET POWER WINDOWS
REPLACED STOCK 17" STEEL WHEELS WITH A SET OF GM 17" ALUMINUM WHEELS
INSTALLED USED MICHELIN HEAVY DUTY TRUCK TIRES OFF A DUALLY (TIRES ARE SLIGHTLY TALLER THAN STOCK TO COMPENSATE A LITTLE FOR THE 3.73 AXLE)
POWER PROGRAMMER (USED TO RECALIBRATE THE COMPUTER FOR THE 3.73 AXLE AND THE TALLER TIRES SO THE SPEEDO IS NOW ACCURATE )
SPRAY ON BEDLINER
I INSTALLED A LOUD FLOWMASTER MUFFLER TO GIVE IT SOME EXTRA POWER WHEN TRAVELING THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS TO GET HERE.



THERES NO SUCH THING AS A VEHICLE THAT DOESNT NEED WORK SO HERE IS WHAT I KNOW IT NEEDS: NOTHING MAJOR OR MECHANICAL IS WRONG WITH IT. TRUCK RUNS AND DRIVER GREAT.

AC CONTROL HEAD HAS AN INTERMITTENT FAILURE (AC WILL CUT OUT WHEN IT FAILS. WHEN ITS WORKING AC BLOWS VERY COLD. CAN GET CHEAP ON EBAY)
HEADLINER NEEDS REPLACING
OIL PRESSURE GAUGE JUST FAILED ON ME (I REPLACE THE RPM GAUGE MOTOR. SHORTLY AFTER THAT, THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE MOTOR STARTED TO FAIL. IT PEGS TO FULL OIL PRESSURE. A COMPLETE MOTOR KIT CAN BE PURCHASED ON EBAY FOR ~30.00 SHIPPED. IF YOU CAN SOLDER, YOU CAN INSTALL IT. IF YOU CANT, THERE ARE MANY CLUSTER REPAIR COMPANIES THAT CAN REBUILD THE COMPLETE CLUSTER FOR ~100.00)
SERPENTINE BELT IS DUE FOR REPLACEMENT

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes

Tue, 28 Aug 2012


Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
