You are bidding on an amazing, reliable, luxurious and durable 2003 Z71 Premium Package Chevrolet Suburban! 

 

This vehicle currently has 184xxx miles and is in excellent mechanical condition!  It is ready to go another 100,000 miles easily.  If you know anything about a Suburban, you know they can easily go 300,000 miles if mechanically well maintained.

 

This vehicle honestly starts, runs, and shifts like it came off the factory line.  It has been excellently maintained since my ownership at 140,000.  The old owner also shared my attention to mechanical detail, but let his wife drive the vehicle and kids sit in the back freely.  They were not careful and the leather and exterior are now in fair condition because of it.  With that being said, the vehicle has always had timely oil changes and services since day one sparing no expense from the previous owner and myself.  The first owner didn't keep maintenance records, but promised me it was well taken care off mechanically throughout his ownership.  

My records pick up at 140,000.  This vehicle has every bell and whistle you could ever imagine.  My personal favorites are the OnStar capabilities, XM Radio, Bose Sound, DVD Player, captain chairs in front and back, third row, tons of cigarette lighters for your electronic use, great handling, smooth ride, huge trunk, amazing four wheel drive that will leave you stuck nowhere, lifetime (comes with cleaning kit) K&N Air Filter, and did I say space?  This truck is so roomy, you could have 7 people all sitting comfortably.  Oh, and most importantly the power.  This truck will tow and accelerate better than most in the game.  This is a great undervalued truck being sold at a devalued cost.  Blue book in fair condition puts it at $6,000-$7000 or more.  I will let it go for much less as I am moving and no longer will need this great truck, or else I would keep it forever.  This vehicle will not let you down for many thousands of miles to come.  Any questions, please feel free to ask. 

 

 

Here are the are the 100% honest things wrong with the vehicle that I have not had time to fix:

1. There is a small rod in the steering wheel that is slightly corroded.  This is a very common problem in this model and year.  This corrosion causes slight vibration only when sometimes turning left and if turning at very high speeds.  It has honestly never bothered me, so I never replaced it.  It does not bother performance whatsoever.  $100 bucks for repair

2. This vehicle has some rust spots, but none significantly on the body and the amounts are completely in line with the year and mileage of the vehicle.  There are only two spots that are developing on the body.   There is a small spot on the left rear panel and one on the passenger rear right door.  Both have been treated with rust protected coating and repainted to match the vehicle.  This seems to keep the rust from spreading.  Should be visible in photo. The front guard has also been painted to match the rest of the vehicle since it was fading.  The Chevrolet marker on the front hood has also been painted due to fading.  

3. The right rear tail light is out and this has just occurred today.  I attempted to change it personally and it was unsuccessful.  Probably needs to go to dealership to see if there is a short or may require better quality bulb.  $12-$100 for repair

4. The trunk springs could use replacing as it does not hold the trunk up too well anymore.  I've always just used the gate that lifts up.  Very cheap repair.  Just $20

5. The body is in fair condition.  It has very small dents and scratches in places.  All from the old owner.  There is also a little piece of plastic missing on the side of the front bumper.  Is not noticeable unless really looking.  

6. That’s it! Just remember it is a used vehicle and can’t be perfect.  I have done my best to describe this vehicle.  The vehicle is sold as is and no returns or exchanges will be accepted. 

7. This truck is in amazing mechanical condition as noted by the few problems. 

8. Lastly, you are responsible for picking this vehicle up and a $500 deposit is needed to PayPal immediately upon winning the auction.  The rest of the payment is due through Paypal in 3 days.    Thank you and happy bidding!

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
