1997 Gmc Sierra Sle K1500 Shortbed For Parts. Needs Frame Replaced on 2040-cars
Hermitage, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Truck has a bad frame. Note, the cap is not included. It is a Dodge cap and is for sale on another auction. I do have an old tonneau cover that I will put on it.
It has four excellent tires on it. Wrangler TD with about 1000 miles on them. I just replaced the front brakes, rotors, calipers, and shocks. I replaced the rear bumper last year, and the rear shocks last year. 4 wheel drive works great, and with the TD tires it will go in snow. The engine is the 5.0 L with 50901 original miles. It runs great. It has the K&N filter charger on it. It has had synthetic oil in it since I bought it in 1998 at 17,000 miles. Interior is in very good condition. I have a carpet layer over the original carpet since 1998, and it has had the catch-all liners since then also. Every thing in the truck works. Air conditioning is good, CD and Radio are good with the exception of the left door speaker. It just went out. Rockers are original and in great shape for a 1997. Bed is very good with one rust through at front of passenger side rear tire. It has a Pendaliner since new. The truck has a reconstructed title. I bought it from salvage in 1998. It had a front collision shortly after original owner bought it, and he would not accept a repaired truck. I replaced the front end myself with all GM parts except I added the K&N filter box to it instead of the original air box, and the fan clutch is aftermarket instead of GM. I could not pay the difference in price and it has been fine for the 33K miles since. There are no air bags in the truck. This is a great truck if you want to buy a frame and complete a project, of if you have a good frame and a bad body. |

2015 Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon airbag problem causes recall
Tue, 14 Oct 2014
The recall affects 2,432 vehicles, though only 138 had actually reached consumers.
General Motors quickly fixed an airbag-wiring problem with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, but is still conducting a small recall to repair the midsize trucks that are launching this fall.
GMC's Denali offerings are going great guns
Fri, 28 Feb 2014The Denali trim that GMC uses to denote its top-of-the-line vehicles was introduced back in 1999, partly as a way to challenge the recently introduced Lincoln Navigator. Fifteen years later, and with GMC the tenth-largest US automotive brand by itself Denali has become a sub-brand that keeps the cash registers ringing at the Renaissance Center HQ. While GMC increased sales by 9 percent in 2013, TheDetroitBureau.com reports that that Denali sales rose by 20 percent.
There are currently five Denali models in the GMC line, with the Denali trim available on all but its commercial vans. In 2010, when the now-discontinued Yukon XL Hybrid was also on sale, GMC sold 32,886 units of its top trim. Last year, that number had increased to 75,558, with almost no help from traditional marketing spends. Go to YouTube and search for "GMC Denali commercials" - the few actual commercial results are from years ago. GMC marketing director Roger McCormack tells TheDetroitBureau.com, "It's largely all been organic."
As sales have grown, so has the tide of money GMC rakes in from the additional luxury features on Denali models. The 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe starts at $44,600, yet its 2014 Yukon Denali doppelganger starts at $58,320, pricing that includes additional features like the larger 6.2-liter V8, nicer interior, head-up display and magnetic ride control suspension. The Yukon XL Denali starts at $60,965, but the article says the "average customer" likely to spend "up and above $70,000" to take one home. How does that happen? On a top-trim Tahoe LTZ, the top-tier wheel option is a set of 20-inch chrome wheels for $400; on the 'base' Yukon Denali you can swap for a set of 22-inch chrome alloys for $2,995. Add it up, and an analyst at AutoTrends Consulting said that kind of margin "epitomizes the concept of obscene profitability." We say when it comes to Denali, GMC appears to stand for "Grabbing More Cash."
GM appears to repurpose Saturn Outlook parts on new Acadia
Thu, 09 Feb 2012General Motors unveiled the company's refreshed GMC Acadia at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show yesterday, and if you were paying attention, you may have noticed something curious about the vehicle. While the new Acadia looks considerably better than its predecessor, a few components of the design looked more than a little familiar. Upon closer observation, it appears that GM has simply repurposed elements of the now defunct Saturn Outlook crossover on the 2013 Acadia. Both vehicles seem to share the same wrap-around rear glass, back hatch, tail light openings and exaggerated, squared-off fender arches.
While the vehicles are differentiated by badging, tail lamps and a rear valance, there's no denying the similarities toward the vehicle's rear. Up front, both share similar fenders, though adjustments have been made for the varying headlight designs.
That's good news if you just can't imagine life without the Saturn Outlook.
