This is a 1994 Chevrolet Blazer 2 door.  This was nearing the end of the full size K series Blazer before it was rebadged as the Tahoe.  This is one of the finest examples that you will probably see.  It has been meticulously maintained.  It currently has 111k miles on it and is hard loaded with nearly every option. This only had a drivers seat for a power seat option.  It has all power equipment and a tilt wheel.  From what I've been able to discover the truck was bought new her in Colorado.  The second owner purchased it 13 years ago.  It has been garaged and it definitely shows.  It also has the more desirable manual shift transfer case.  No electric motors to give out when you need it most. 

 

·         It has new paint which is a gorgeous black with a deep gunmetal metallic gray lower half. It was then clear coated and polished.  It is in incredible condition!  The paint shop then used 3M clear bra material to cover the lower rockers to protect it from rock chips which would normally show up in this area.  I just can't say enough about this paint job.  It's hard to get black to lay down this good. The door hinge pins and bushings were also replaced along with some other small pieces when it was in for the paint.  Total was $3300.00.

 

·         The engine was replaced about 30k ago.  A factory replacement 5.7 TBI fuel injected (350ci) GM crate engine was used to keep with the originality and more importantly, reliability.  It was done at a reputable shop in Denver and while there a tall K&N air filter took the place of the factory unit.  Previous owner stated it was a little over $3,000.00 for the replacement. 

 

·         Exhaust.  It was redone around the time the engine was replaced.   Starts at the factory manifolds.  No headers to leak and cause problems.  It now has a Magna flow exhaust and Hi-Flow cat which spilt into duals running out the back.  There are black chrome tips finishing it off which give it an incredible look.  The truck has a mild rumble to it.  It's not obnoxious, loud and droning when you're driving at highway speeds.  It's clean with a nice note.   I believe that was about $750.00.  It passes the strict Colorado A.I.R. emissions program with ease. 

 

·         Interior.  It is gray cloth which is in near perfect condition! The carpet is very nice for the age as it looks to have been running floor mats the majority of it's life.  Seats are as comfortable as if new and not worn out with broken down side bolsters, torn material, etc.  I've added a new, billet steering wheel and hub assembly for personal preference but the horn is not hooked up through this wheel.  The horn works with the factory wheel. I'm negotiable if the winning bidder wants just the factory wheel.  I'd like to keep the billet one.  Factory wheel is included with the sale price.  The stereo system is all factory and works perfectly.  It does have upgraded speakers and a hidden amp in the back as well as an Alpine CD changer under the drivers seat.  The head unit is contained in the overhead console.  The system looks OEM but the sound quality is greatly improved over the factory system.  It is as clean and solid as the truck it's in. The front two roll ups have a mid level degree of tint added to them that matches the rear glass. 

 

·         Tires and wheels were replaced with very nice polished  17" alloy rims wrapped in Remington LT275/70R 17 all terrain tires.  I would estimate that they have about  90-95% tread life left.  No weird wear patterns, etc.  The truck drives nice and straight and rides super smooth.   I believe they were $1700.00.

·         Drivetrain.  The truck was ordered with most options which included the factory tow package.  This gets you 3.73 gears and the posi-track.  Z-71 package as well.  All fluids, filters, gaskets etc were replaced and serviced when the engine was done.  That includes the trans (700R4), transfer cases and both front and rear differentials, etc.

 

·         I replaced the lights rather than cleaning up the factory ones.  They were starting to show their age with slight fading.  This detracted from overall condition of the truck.  They are all new to factory specs.  No Pep-boy specials with the "European look" or those other  weird designs.  I like the OEM, factory GM look.  The truck looks even better now.  The new owner will get all of the factory original lights that were removed.  Also, while I was up there I added a chrome billet bow tie to finish it off. 

 

·         I have a file folder of receipts for hoses, fuel pump, seals and gaskets and other little odds and ends which shows the truck has been very well cared for.  If there was an issue the owners fixed it.   

 

The detractors that I see are the elastic document holders on the visors are sagging which they all do in time.  I've pinned them up so they are presentable.  It has a small crack on one of the dash panel screws in the upper left side of the dash.  You can see it in one of the pics if you look close enough.  Minor but mentionable.  The windshield has some age appropriate pitting to it.  I was planning on replacing it if I keep it.  Near perfect clear glass is what I prefer.  This is still in decent shape but I'm just picky about the glass. 

 

I just can't say enough about the condition of this Blazer.  It handles, rides and runs extremely well.  It is a very comfortable truck.  It represents one of the cleanest examples of this series of Chevrolet trucks that you will find.  This is the example that others should be measured against.  It's a great two door Blazer with tons of life left in it.  Lifes unexpected changes forces the sale of many of the toys to include this one.   

 

I would strongly, strongly encourage that you have an independent inspection done prior to bidding on this truck.  I'm confident that the appraiser will agree that it has been kept in incredible condition and is ready to go another few decades down the road!   It has a clean Carfax which shows me as the third owner. 

 

ASK ALL QUESTIONS PROR TO PLACING A BID!  YOUR BID IS A BINDING CONTRACT.  AGAIN, I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE SERIOUS BUYERS TO SEND A REPUTABLE INSPECTOR TO LOOK AT THE TRUCK.  IT WILL HELP TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS THAT YOU MAY HAVE WHEN PURCHASING A VEHICLE SIGHT UNSEEN.   

 

I will do what I can if you'd like to look at the truck in person but please be considerate and give plenty of advanced notice.  I have a busy work and personal schedule that I'll need to work around. 

SHIPPING:  Buyer will make all arrangements surrounding shipping of the vehicle.  I will do what I can on my end to work with the carrier of your choice but you are responsible for shipping arrangements and payment to the carrier. 

PAYMENT:  A non refundable deposit of $300.00 is due within 24 hours of auctions end.  Remaining payment is due within 7 calander days from auctions end date. 

 

The reserve is in place for reasons of fairness.  It is very reasonable considering what this truck is and its condition.  Again, send an independant, qualified inspector to look at the vehicle.  I'm sure they'll be impressed with its condition.

**********UPDATE:  Had a few of questions that I thought I'd address. 

I found the reciept for the GM engine along with some other docs that came with it. Thought I didn't have it but it was buried in the file. 

Yes, the K&N filter was ordered with the recharge kit and it will be included.  It also has a Chiltons manual that will go with it.   

Yes, the full size spare is excellent.  Still has the hairs on it and looks to be brand new.  It's a Goodyear Wrangler on the perfect factory silver steel wheel.  I don't see any signs that this wheel was ever put into service. 

Yes, I have two sets of keys for it.

No, to the best of my knowledge and all of the information I have on this truck it has never been smoked in. 

No, I don't take payments. The truck and all associated documents, title, etc. will be released once valid payment clears. 

Correct, the trucks been in Colorado since new. 

 

Any other questions just ask. 

 

Thx

Diesel details: Comparing Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, Chevy Silverado Duramax, Ford F-150 Powerstroke

Thu, Jun 13 2019

With specifications for the 2019 Ford F-150 Power Stroke diesel already out, and the details on the 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and Chevy Silverado Duramax (and its GMC Sierra twin) trickling out, we felt it was a good time to start comparing the full-size trucks' light-duty diesels. Bear in mind, we've only driven one of these new diesel trucks, so we'll be sticking to numbers for now. Some numbers haven't been announced yet, either, but stay tuned, because we'll be updating this post with additional specifications as they become available. And if you want to compare any other versions of these trucks with other vehicles, be sure to check out our comparison tool. Now let's start comparing, starting with our big chart of numbers below. As we can plainly see, these trucks are quite closely matched. Each one has six cylinders, a displacement of 3.0 liters and a turbocharger to boost it. The output of each is somewhat close, too. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel is the torque king at 480 pound-feet, 20 more than the GM trucks and 40 more than the Ford. The GM trucks win on power, though, with 277 ponies, 17 more than the Ram, and 27 more than the Ford. GM does report that you get their trucks' peak 460 pound-feet of torque from 1,500 rpm to 3,000 rpm, whereas the others only report peak torque at a particular point in the rev band, but all of these trucks should have wide, flat torque curves as you would expect from modern turbodiesels. 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel View 8 Photos Engine output is only one part of the truck performance equation. We also have towing and payload capacity, as well as fuel economy. With towing, the Ram 1500 is the current leader with a maximum capacity of 12,560 pounds. That tops the Ford F-150's 11,400-pound tow rating by well over 1,000 pounds. The F-150 can carry 2,020 pounds in its bed, but we don't know yet whether that's better or worse than the Ram or the GM trucks. We also don't have numbers for the GM trucks' towing capacities. View 9 Photos As for fuel economy, the Ford F-150 manages a thoroughly impressive 22 mpg in the city and 30 on the highway with two-wheel drive. Choosing four-wheel drive drops those numbers to 20 and 25 respectively. The fuel economy numbers for the Ram, Chevy and GMC haven't been revealed yet, but for some comparison, we can look at the old Ram EcoDiesel. That truck's best fuel economy was 20 in the city and 27 on the highway with two-wheel drive.

Chevy Bolt EV, Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Ridgeline take 2017 NACTOY prizes

Mon, Jan 9 2017

Every year the 2017 North American International Auto Show kicks off with the North American Car of the Year Awards. We say "awards" after all those mentions of our home continent because it's not just cars. This year, in fact, the awards spread out to three separate honors: Car, Truck, and Utility. And without further ado, here are the winners. The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV is the Car of the Year, the Honda Ridgeline is the Truck of the Year, and the Chrysler Pacifica is the Utility of the Year. Honda's win is perhaps the biggest surprise, upsetting favorite the Ford F Super Duty for the win. The second-generation Ridgeline rides on a unibody platform and is offered in front- or all-wheel-drive, which is unconventional for a pickup. But the layout also offers a cargo bed with an in-floor trunk and solid fuel economy figures of 19 city, 26 highway in its most-efficient form. The Chevy Bolt EV, however, was probably the easiest winner to predict. Its 238-mile range and sub-$30,000 starting price after tax credits make it a breakthrough in the landscape of electric vehicles. With the Chrysler Pacifica available in a plug-in hybrid form, this year's award illustrates the industry's shift towards efficiency and electrification. And with Ford's recent announcement on future EVs, it might not be long will it be until we see a hybrid truck on the award stage as well.Related Video:

2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV output jumps to 754 hp and 785 lb-ft

Sun, Oct 23 2022

A couple of days ago, GMC unleashed its 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 pickup, the luxury truck division's version of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. As has been the case between Chevy and GMC for decades, GMC designers worked to put ample visual difference between the two pickups that share the similar underpinnings. Unlike what's been the historical case, GMC announced output figures for the Sierra EV well above those for the Silverado. Preliminary estimates for the battery-electric Sierra with the dual-motor powertrain are 754 horsepower and 785 pound-feet of torque. Chevy revealed the 2024 Silverado EV in January with 664 hp and 785 lb-ft in RST trim. We're not sure what happened after the GMC debut, but the Bowtie has updated the Silverado's output to match the GMC with 754 hp and 785 lb-ft. Chevy truck communications spokesperson Sean Szymkowski submitted a statement to various outlets explaining, "As we prepare for production of the Silverado EV, our engineering team has further refined the estimated performance specs for the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV RST First Edition. GM now estimates horsepower to be up to 754 and torque up to an estimated 785 lb-ft when Wide Open Watts mode is engaged." It's possible Chevrolet did so in order to forestall backlash about the disparity, or it's possible the automaker already planned to do so after the GMC dropped. On the ICE side, buyers have got used to powertrain parity, the Silverado and Sierra offering the same engines with the same outputs even with pricing about $3,600 apart on the respective top trims. No matter how the decision was made, the benefits redound to Silverado EV buyers. By the way, the "Wide Open Watts" reference refers to the driving mode required to extract these peak power figures. In the GMC Sierra EV, this is called Max Power Mode. We're still looking for clarity on the output figures in everyday driving modes, we believe those will be the same 510 hp and 615 lb-ft that's the maximum in the lower trim Silverado EV Work Truck.    With a year to wait before the Silverado RST EV reaches reservation holders, and with the Chevrolet Work Truck providing real-world feedback before the RST arrives, don't be surprised at more tweaks made to both the Silverado and Sierra EVs before they hit the market.
