Tuscumbia, Alabama, United States

I have decided to sell my Silverado 4x4.  As you can see in the pictures, this truck is in great condition.  The truck has a 4 inch Rough Country lift and is riding on American Eagle rims.  Tires are 31 inch and sound good while not sacrificing the overall ride.  This truck has spent it's entire life in North Alabama.  It has the original paint job and absolutely zero rust on the body.  The paint is a little faded on the roof and rails, but still looks almost perfect on the sides.  As you can see the interior looks very good and is also original.  It has a small crack on the driver's side door panel and no suprise it does have a cracked dash.  I did not want to replace it since it is all original, but it can be replaced easily.  The truck has a 8 cylinder engine which is very strong and the transmission shifts smoothly.  It does have a small leak from the rear main seal like every other GM in this era.  It is not a big leak at all.  The truck also has true dual exhaust and sounds great.  The 4 wheel drive engages as it should and pulls great.  All gauges work in the truck also.  It has cold AC and hot heat.  I did replace the heater core recently.  I also replaced the stock carb with a new electronic choke Holley so it cranks easily.  The truck runs perfect.  It has power windows and locks and also Dual tanks.  All work as they should.  As you can see in the picture the truck never had a Drawtite hitch added to it.  It has not been abused as you can see the bed is also in good condition.   The truck even has the original bed rails.  This truck can be driven anywhere.  Feel free to fly into either Huntsville, Al or Birmingham, Al and drive your new truck home.  Before someone asks why i am selling the truck, I just have too many cars that get driven very little.  I originally thought I would drive it for Deer hunting, but it is just too nice to do that.  I drive the truck to the airport every once in a while or to my in laws farm.   Someone will win a awesome truck that would need very little to be perfect.  This was the top o the line Silverado in its day.  I never drive it without getting compliments on its looks.  This is a not a new truck but I promise you, you will not be embarrassed to drive down the road in this great looking SWB Chevy.  Good Luck Bidding!  I reserve the right to end this auction early as the truck is for sale locally.

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
