La Porte, Indiana, United States

 1994 GMC Suburban K2500 SLE.  454 ci TBI fuel-injected V8 that starts quickly and runs fine.  It has a 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission that was rebuilt with a TCI Maximizer torque converter and Pro Super rebuild kit (kit is supposed to be rated for 750 hp I think) with less 1,000 miles on it.  The tranny also has an aluminum pan from Mag-Hytec.  The transmission shifts well, with a slightly hard 1-2 shift.  4 wheel drive works fine.  This is a GT5/G80 truck which means 4.10 gears and a rear locking differential.  It is equipped with a 6 inch BDS suspension lift and 35" tires with 75% tread.  It has extended braided stainless steel brake lines.  It has leather seats with an aftermarket vinyl 3rd row seat.  Power windows, locks, mirrors.  It has the rear heat and A/C system and a Sony Xplod CD player.  Aftermarket grill and headlights.  The alternator was replaced about 2 years ago with one from Powermaster, the front and rear BDS shocks have less than 2000 miles on them.  It has Airlift rear airbags with a built in compressor and a Draw-Tite trailer brake controller.

The bad:  It has surface rust on the frame.  The paint is peeling on the tailgate and at the bottom of some of the doors.  The aftermarket exhaust system is rusty and probably needs to be replaced.  The carpet is stained, especially in the cargo area.  There is a crack about an inch long in the left front fender flare.  The service engine soon light is on because there are no catalytic converters on the Suburban.  The left front marker light leaks, but both bulbs still work.

Google Earth helps sheriff's department find stolen car [w/video]

Sun, 29 Sep 2013

A stolen-vehicle case opened back in March was recently solved with the help of a property owner using Google Earth, a virtual globe and mapping service similar to Google Maps, ABC News reports. The man, who remains anonymous, found the stolen GMC Yukon while he was surveying his property in George County, Mississippi, using the map service and, judging by the top-down satellite image, thought he found a "shooting house" on his hunting grounds.
When he drove out to the suspicious structure, he realized it actually was a sport utility vehicle wedged in thick brush about 70 yards from the nearest road, so he called the police.
Law enforcement officers had arrested a female suspect in the case earlier based on eyewitness accounts, but didn't prosecute her because the stolen SUV hadn't been found. Ben Brown, a lieutenant detective with the George County Sheriff's Department, says that he ran the plates and confirmed the SUV was the stolen vehicle the department had been looking for.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007

Sat, 21 Sep 2013

Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
