 I am selling my 2000 GMC K2500 Sierra SLT pickup.  I have owned this pickup for the past 6 years (80,000 miles).  It has been a great truck but needs to be moved on to make room for another one.  I have used it mostly for over the road towing.  The 7.4 liter, 454 runs strong and doesn't use any oil to speak of.  It has been maintained mostly by a local shop and I have all receipts.  I have tried to keep the oil changed every 3500-4000 miles. 
 
I have done a number of performance modifications. It has a K&N air filter and a larger 3" muffler and exhaust that is in good shape.  I also had the computer programmed to get a few more horses and also made the transmission shift a little firmer (not much but a little to help the torque converter). 

It has Michelin LTX/MS 2 tires with about half tread left and all in good shape (no broken belts, balanced and true)  It had the aftermarket rims and they still look fair.  If you get up close you can see some of the clear coat coming off, etc.  

It has minor rust spots around (see pictures) but is in very good shape for the year.  I installed the running boards when I got it and they have a few rust spots but should go a while yet.  A few places the paint has chipped off.  GM had some issues with this and this truck is no exception. 

It has a cap on the back and bedrug in the bed.  I used it to haul furniture so it is clean and nice.  The leather seats are in good shape for the year.  The drivers seat has rips starting but I have held them at bay with an epoxy glue that I have put on it to keep it from tearing all the way.  All power windows all work well.  The power door locks have never worked very well.  The drivers door lock works but the rest of the doors dont always lock with the key fob or the power lock button.  I have learned to just lock it manually.  It has 3 power plugs for lots of hookups.  I have a scan guage (see pic) installed that I will let go with the truck.  I used it to monitor transmission fluid temperature and speed (it is more accurate than the regular speedo).  All gauges work.  The radio works well.  The A/C blows cold.  The cruise works great.  I installed electric fans to replace the original power robbing manual clutch one.  It also has a larger (I think 200 amp) alternator for more electrical power for the electric fans, trailer brakes, etc.  I recently installed new headlights to replace the originals that were getting cloudy. 

I installed a larger transmission cooler on it (because of the towing, see pic taken through grill) soon after I got it.  This has helped keep the fluid temperature down when towing.  The 4L80E transmission is known to be bulletproof.  I just got the Trans oil changed (2nd time since I owned it).  It has a heavy hitch (Class V). 

It comes with 4 floor mats that are in good shape.

Please feel free to call or email with questions.  My number is 540-560-3290.

 I forgot to mention, it also has an aftermarket remote start that works great.

2015 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra can tow up to 12,000 pounds

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Think back to the launch of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado. At the time, General Motors happily trumpeted that its fullsize pickup could tow up to 11,500 pounds when properly equipped - impressive stuff, no doubt. But now, revised tow rating practices have been put into place, called SAE J2807. And with these new methods of testing, GM can now officially rate both the Silverado and its GMC Sierra twin as being able to tow up to 12,000 pounds.
Of course, not all Silverado and Sierra models are capable of this feat. In fact, because of SAE J2807, most of the truck models have actually had decreases in tow ratings from the 2014 to 2015 model year. For example, a 2014 Silverado Crew Cab with the 5.3-liter V8, 5.7-foot box and 3.73 rear axle was rated at 11,200 pounds in 2014, but has since been reduced to 10,800 in 2015. Same goes for the Sierra.
But for 2015, both the Silverado and Sierra can be had with a more powerful 6.2-liter V8, as well as a Max Trailering Package that includes a 9.76-inch rear axle, heavy-duty rear springs, revised shock tuning, improved cooling and a new trailer brake controller. There are also four- and seven-pin, bumper-mounted connectors, a trailer hitch (duh), and a G80 locking rear differential. This configuration, with either model, is the only way you can actually tow 12,000 pounds.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
