Nobody makes this size engine anymore, and they're getting harder to come by. Please see the photos for condition of the body. Yes, this is a work truck. If you need to haul logs and rocks and mulch, or pull a boat or home or trailer - this is a perfect truck for you!

I bought this truck about ten years ago because I needed something bigger to haul and pull, as mentioned above. I've only put 10K miles on this truck in the last ten years.

Now, for the best part..... When I bought the truck, it had a brand new drive train in it! Yup. 10K miles on a 10yr-old engine and tranny. Where else are you going to find a truck like this?

Truck comes with a tow package and brake-assist. AM/FM/Cassette.

Why am I selling it? We're downsizing a bit. Besides, I have four other trucks.

Now, I'll explain the photos:

*You'll see two photos with channel-locks. The one for the tailgate means you need to use that one to open the tailgate. The one inside the truck means you need that one to bring the passenger seat forward. Both tools will be included with the truck. Really, not a big deal. Both are kept behind the front seats.

*The side of the truck that looks like someone ran over a big log is because someone ran over a big log.

*The one of the driver side door that looks like the door retainer spring popped out and caused the door to open much farther than it was meant to is because the door retainer spring popped out and the door flew open much farther than it was ever meant to. Yes, that happened more than just once. As a result, the door hinge was repaired. However, the wind whistles pretty loudly as the truck rolls down the road. Maybe a bit more weather-stripping could take care of it. Not sure. Haven't tried.

All other photos should show the rest of the bumps and scratches that are typical for a good work truck.

You'll be allowed 14 days to either pick up or arrange shipping.  Shipping company must be able to load the truck at the truck stop in Fletcher NC, I-26, Exit 44.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

WI dealer under fire for selling new GMC to dying, blind 89-year-old WWII vet [w/video]

Thu, 14 Mar 2013


You know, people, getting through this life from one end to the other in one piece really does require just one rule: don't be a prick. If you ever find yourself in a situation of dubious moral standing, take a step back and ask yourself, "Am I being a prick to any person or thing?" If the answer is "yes," then stop what you're doing, apologize and go home. One dealership in Wisconsin could possibly have benefitted from that course of action when it reportedly helped David McMurray con his elderly and disabled parents into buying a brand-new $42,000 GMC Terrain for his use.
According to local news reports, a representative from Palmen Motors visited Harold and Christen Thomsen's home to collect signatures for a loan agreement three weeks before the 89-year-old, legally blind Harold passed away. The World War II veteran was on morphine and in hospice when he signed for the GMC, and his 90-year-old wife suffers from dementia. Even so, upon being discovered, the dealer initially said everything was done "legally." According to Barb Tinkler, McMurray's sister, the sale was a scam that remained hidden until he was busted for an unrelated criminal charge.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
