2006 Chevrolet Colorado
2.8L VORTEC I4 Engine

Lots of extras!

Im selling my 2006 Chevy Colorado 2-Door Regular Cab. I am the original owner and have the clear title in hand ready for transfer. I have the original sticker price which was at $17,085! I Have put about 8,500 miles a year on the truck for a total of about 79k miles.
I recently moved to New York from Florida and bought a new car for my growing family. Since I never registered the truck in NY I garaged it for about 7 months. Now Im selling because I don't see myself using the truck anymore. The truck runs very good, starts up right away and the motor has absolutely no leaks! It has the Fuel injected 2.8L I4 VORTEC Engine. Automatic Electronic Transmission. It has a GVW rating of 4850 lb. and a 3.73 rear axle ratio. I added some extras to the truck that I will mention further down.

It has Power Rack and Pinion Steering, Independent Front Suspension, 2 Stage rear leaf springs, front disc rear drum brakes. It has a 19.5 Gallon Fuel tank with a really good 23 mpg highway for those long road trips. For Safety and Security the truck has Dual stage front Air Bags w/ Passenger Sensing System, 4 Wheel anti-lock brakes, Daytime running Lamps with Auto Headlamps, latch child restraints and a passlock theft deterrent system. Interior has a 60/40 Split Bench Seat, Air conditioning, full vinyl flooring, Driver information center, Tachometer, Cruise control/tilt steering wheel.

The Bad:
-The truck has a dent on the rear right panel. A car was backing up and didn't see my parked truck. The dent honestly never bothered me so I never had it fixed. (See pics its really not that bad)
-The truck has a shopping cart scratch on the door. The truck bed inside walls have scratches throughout (I used to use it a lot).
- There is a small rock chip (dime size) on the windshield.
- When I recently started the truck up again, every once in a while when making a right turn or braking hard coming to a stop the truck sounds like it wants to stall. It did not do this before I garaged the car. I called chevy and inquired about the problem and they said most likely the throttle body needs to be cleaned and/or the spark plugs need to be replaced. The check engine light is NOT on so it should be an easy fix.
- The A.C. also stopped working on settings 1-3 but blows ice cold on setting 4. It didn't do this before I garaged the truck.
- The truck has an in-dash DVD/CD player indash TV installed but the faceplate with the buttons was pushed in to hard one day and thus you cant reach the buttons (needs to be refurbished). Although it does have an Aux Cable installed so you can connect your MP3 player to it and listen to music just fine.

THE GOOD:
Truck has a lot of new extras:
- Brand New Tonneu Bed Cover, which works nicely with the locking truck bed door! The bed also Has a GM heavy duty mat.
- Brand New High Flow Electric Pull Fan, Professionally installed at chevy. Lengthens the life of the water pump and improves gas mileage and hp.
- Brand New K&N Cold Air Intake system, Improves gas mileage and hp.
- Goodyear Wrangler All Weather Radial White Letter Tires. They have about 90% thread left. They are larger than stock, so the truck has a nice higher ride.
- I did the 60k maintenance so the car has all new breaks and fluid all done at chevy.
- The door windows and rear window have limo tint on it which helps keep the truck cool.
- All maintenance, oil changes exc. done at chevy dealership. So the truck has all records of how well its been maintained.
Shipping:
Shipping cost is the responsibility of the buyer. I can help with finding a shipper for you. The car is located in New York, Zip Code 11727
I did a quick search on google and saw a quote for about $1000 From New York to Los Angeles, California So shipping should be anywhere around that quote.
This is a No reserve auction for a great and clean truck. GOOD LUCK!

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.

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.

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
