1999 - Gmc Sierra 1500 on 2040-cars
Scott, Arkansas, United States
I am now selling my 1999 New Body Style GMC Sierra 1500 Z71 Extended Cab Short Bed SLT. I am the second owner of the truck, and I bought it used from two elderly women that used it as their daily driver and a rig to tow their small camper. The truck was completely stock when I received it, and came with 98,xxx miles. This was my first truck, and after multiple stages of modification and more money spent than I want to count up, the result is what you see in the pictures below. I have all of the modifications listed below as well, and it wont take long to recognize the effort, time, and money I have spent on the truck over the past 6 years. I completed all of the work in my driveway with the help of Mud Connection Off Road in Little Rock, Arkansas when it came to tasks I didn't trust myself to attempt. As the truck sits, she now has 155,xxx miles on her, but nothing except the motor has more than 500 miles on it since being either replaced or rebuilt, except for the frame, body, and interior. Everything on the truck functions as it should, with no strange sounds, leaks, or any other issues that I have found and failed to correct. I would trust the truck to drive across the country if I needed to do so, as I have built it with functionality and reliability always considered the most crucial aspects of the modifications that I have made. I have always run 91 Octane and all Mobil 1 Synthetic lubricants in the truck since I've had it, and used Seafoam to clean all of the systems on the truck periodically. The only reason I am selling the truck is strictly because I don't have the time to thoroughly enjoy it as I should. I always told myself that I wouldn't ever sell my first truck, but I believe the time has come for me to pass it on to someone that would enjoy it more than I am able to. I'm a senior in college, and as I prepare myself to enter grad school next year, and then the job market, I know the truck will be neglected even more than it is now. The list of modifications is as follows: Motor: -Original 5.3 Vortec -Replaced Oil Pan Gasket with Fel-Pro -New AC Delco 130 Amp Alternator -New Goodyear Gatorback Accessory Belt -New Replacement Factory Style Exhaust Manifolds with ARP Stainless Manifold Hardware and Fel-Pro manifold gaskets - Replaced water pump -K&N Cold Air Intake with Dry Charger pre-filter - Rear Main seal replaced during Transmission Rebuild - Throttle Body Spacer -MSD 8.5mm Plug Wires -New AC Delco Spark Plugs - Factory Camaro Dual Electric Fans with Hayden Cooling controller -New Ac Delco Fuel Pump -Custom Dual 2" Exhaust with Magnaflow high-flow catalytic converters - All 4 Oxygen Sensors replaced with new units Transmission: -Factory 4L60E with factory Tranny Cooler -Completely Rebuilt by LS Series Specialist Kris Keltner and KK Performance of Little Rock.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.

Mon, 29 Jul 2013Big And Boxy Might Be Best
As immense fans of the Back to the Future trilogy, we sometimes like to envision an alternate timeline in which General Motors had killed off GMC and kept Pontiac instead. The G8 GXP would still be on the road handily beating German sport sedans costing twice as much, while the lowly G3 would morph into a true subcompact-killer based on what is now the Chevrolet Sonic RS. While we're at it, let's go ahead and imagine the G6 has become the best-selling car in the US and the Torrent crossover is selling 20,000+ units per month. Far-fetched, we know.
The thing is, these fanciful statements would have to be true to make the case against keeping GMC. Pontiac may have offered more excitement than GMC, but money talks, and a full line of trucks, crossovers and SUVs have made a lot more money for GM than the arrowhead brand ever did. How much? As we learned last month, about two-thirds of GM's global profits came from its fullsize trucks, and GMC's trucks typically have thicker margins than their Chevrolet counterparts.
