1995 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban Lt Sport Utility 4-door 6.5l on 2040-cars
Richfield, Wisconsin, United States
This well used 1995 2500 Diesel Suburban starts and runs well. It handles like a dream in deep snow is and incredibly comfortable on long trips. I bought this in 2008 with about 237,000 miles and have driven it in a limited capacity, but regularly, since. While the body is in poor condition, the mechanicals on this vehicle are solid. I would not hesitate to drive this SUV any distance. For the last five years, we have used it exclusively for trips longer than 100 miles and recreational travel (biking/kayaking) as our other car is small and electric. Tires are in very good condition - spare is included.
Air conditioning/heat works perfectly. Two zone system allow passengers in the back to control their own AC/heat. 4WD works perfectly. As soon as I took ownership of the Suburban I took care of two big ticket fixes: Transmission was rebuilt by professional local shop (Automatic Transmission Design, Inc.). Injector Pump replaced with professionally rebuilt IP and installed by local garage specializing in diesel repair (Richfield Auto). If bought locally, the starter and alternator have have replaced by lifetime warranted pieces. Most recently, ABS sensors replaced on front brakes and brake system inspection completed. The brakes have plenty of life left on them. I also had a replacement exhaust custom fabricated for this SUV as it was tough to find a replacement system. They took the exhaust back from after the headers all the way to the tailpipe. I detailed some of the cosmetic defects above, but I will try to list as many as I can remember here:
Mechanical issues I am aware of:
Now for the fun! I converted this vehicle to WVO using a professionally designed Greasecar System. This system involved a second 40 gallon tank specifically for WVO, and a two fuel system under the hood. Basically, you can run on diesel, then when the vehicle has heated to a certain temperature, you switch it over to free waste vegetable oil. Before you finish your trip you switch back to diesel and you are good to go. We have saved $1000's of dollars on diesel fuel using this system, but the hobby is at an end for us. As such, we are also including a WVO starter kit - everything you will need to filter and run WVO in this system. (Even a little oil if you want it.) You will need a trailer to get this starter kit to your home. The tank on the truck currently is about 1/2 full with clean WVO. I run the system periodically to keep it working properly. With this WVO starter kit I am offering
Note: You do not need to run WVO in this vehicle. You could leave the system in place and run only on diesel if you wish with no harm to the truck. You could also remove the system fairly simply (if you have a rudimentary understanding of diesel engines). It would take me about one hour to restore (not offering to do it, just giving an idea of the complexity). You could also continue running this truck on WVO if you wish. It is a relatively hassle free way to drive for free. As with any 20 year old vehicle, this is being sold AS IS, WHERE IS. You must arrange for shipping/pickup and no warranty is offered or implied. I have attempted to describe this vehicle as completely as I can, but if there are issues with the vehicle not covered in the above description, I am not liable for them. This is a No Reserve auction. If you bid on this, you may win it. Please be prepared to pay for this and arrange shipping or pick up. I am unable to deliver this vehicle for you. If you want WVO system, you will need some type of trailer as equipment will not all fit in the Suburban. After your winning bid: I would like $500 within 48 hours of close. Paypal only please. The balance upon pickup/delivery when I will provide you with the clear title. Balance must be in cash, cashier's check verified during banking hours, Paypal or escrow.com. If shipping, I will not allow pickup until I have verified funds. Any questions at all, please contact me through Ebay and I will respond asap. Thank you, Eric |

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
