I'm selling my 1998 Chevy Astro AWD Van. I've had it for a year and it's been amazing in the snow (the studded snow tires help in addition to the AWD) in the Northeast but I have too many cars right now and need to clear out my driveway some. I bought it from the second owner (he had the vehicle since 36,000 miles) who used it for family trips and carrying a canoe on the roof rack. I've used it to haul kayaks, bicycles, and even a stand up jet ski with the seats removed. You can take the front seat out and let three passengers in the back have a TON or legroom, remove the rear seat to have a ton of cargo room and still carry five people, or leave both seats in and carry eight people. It's a very versatile vehicle. And because it bears repeating absolutely amazing in the snow. 

But as with any 15 year old vehicle it's not perfect. For it's age the exterior is in good shape, some normal scratches and small dings around the outside. Some small sections of rust on the rear hatch, the driver's side foot well, and the sliding door foot well. Still very solid. Mechanically there are a couple items to note. The check engine light is on, if you are a CT resident the emissions test is current until 3/29/14. There is some pulsation from the front brakes and an occasional pull to either side during braking, it does not occur all the time leading me to believe a cleaning and lubrication of the caliper slides may be all that is needed. At some point in owning the vehicle the stock radio stopped working, it is included in the sale along with a mounting kit for an aftermarket radio.

There is also a full factory service manual that will be included with the van (you can see it on the passenger seat in one of the pictures). 

The van is being sold as-is and is priced accordingly with it's age and condition.

Car Club USA: Corvette Homecoming

Tue, Mar 17 2015

Car Club USA travels to Bowling Green, KY to document the annual Corvette Homecoming, where owners travel from around the country to reconnect with the manufacturing birthplace of their vehicles. We follow two contestants in the "Show and Shine" competition, for whom the human connection at the event is just as important as showing off their wheels. "That's probably the biggest thing about this weekend," says one attendee, "there's a connection with Corvette people." Of course, the grandeur seeing stunners like a 1959 Corvette convertible, 1966 Big Block and 2002 Z06 is worth the price of admission. Get a firsthand look at the Homecoming experience, and the folks that make it so special. Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog.

Chevy Crossvolt name kept alive in new trademark application

Fri, Dec 26 2014

In April 2011 General Motors submitted a trademark application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the word "Crossvolt." In November of this year, the application expired for lack of a statement of use. But in August of this year, GM applied again for the same trademark, leading some to believe that it intends to apply the name to a vehicle. That vehicle could explain the mule in sliced-and-diced Chevrolet Orlando bodywork caught in several spy shots this year, theorized to be some kind of Toyota Prius V or Ford C-Max Hybrid competitor; or it could be a production version of the Chevrolet Volt MP5 concept showed off at the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, which was about the same size as the Chevy Orlando. Or it could be none of those things – but the fact that Chevrolet is keeping it current makes us believe it will be... something.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
