Beautiful 2 owner Minnesota truck that has never seen winter or bad weather. I bought it from the original owner in 1998 with 50000 miles on it. It now shows 85527 miles and they are correct. It had been in a minor fender bender when it was new and the right front fender and door had been repaired in 1987 when it was less than a year old. It has had no paint work or repair since. It had been lowered using Bell Tech parts when I purchased it.
I added the dual exhaust, tonneau cover, factory bumper guards and hood ornament. I also added the SS454 wheels which have new B.F. Goodrich radial Ta's on them. The trim on the tailgate is from a Suburban. The tailgate handle is still in the original position, I just never opened the tailgate. One look in the box and it's factory paint tells you that it hasn't been used much. I have the factory tailgate trim as well. The original Uniroyal Tiger Paw spare has never been used. The truck has the fuel injected 305 with the automatic transmission and factory 2:73 gears. It runs and drives excellent and has had no work other than oil changes and tune ups. It is loaded with options: ps, pb, pw, pl, cold ac, dual tanks that work perfect, tilt, factory stereo that works perfect, even the clock keeps perfect time. I also changed steering wheels. The factory red paint is very nice. It has a few stone chips on the hood and behind the wheels but it's a safe bet the truck has never seen a gravel road. It has one small dent on the right front fender. A good paintless dent guy could probably handle although it's in a bad spot being on the factory horizontal body line. The original tan interior is in excellent condition. The dash pad has no cracks, the door panels are perfect and the seat and carpet are in excellent condition. The headliner has started to drop a bit above the drivers side visor but can't be seen unless you lower the visor. I have the original window sticker as well. I am biased because I have owned and enjoyed the truck for 16 years but I would say it's an honest 7 out of 10. It's only for sale to ease the hurt of the price tag on the 2014 Chevy I have ordered. |

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
2022 Chevy Tahoe, Suburban and GMC Yukon get updated transmission
Sat, Dec 25 2021General Motors' full-sized SUVs have slipped in one more change before the year turns. GM Authority reports that the 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, and the 2022 GMC Yukon and Yukon XL equipped with gas V8 engines, will pick up a revised ten-speed automatic transmission. The new unit carries RPO code MHS, and Chevrolet communications rep Catherine Scales told GMA the updated gearbox "allows our manufacturing and dealer teams to more easily align the specific calibration needed for the transmission and can enable OTA updates in the future." It seems GM wants to make it easier to update the transmission's tuning and calibration in the future with the automaker's networked Vehicle Intelligence Platform/Global B electronic architecture. The 10-speed auto comes bolted to the 5.3-liter V8 and the 6.2-liter V8. The 3.0-liter inline-six Duramax diesel continues with the 10-speed automatic already in use. To recap the other changes for the full-sizers, we'll start with the 2022 Tahoe and Suburban, which get a new 12.3-inch digital instrument display to replace the former 8-inch unit and physical gauges. Navigation will be standard equipment displayed on the 10.2-inch infotainment touchscreen on all trims barring the base LS. Lane-keeping assist and parking sensors are also now standard, while reverse automatic braking is added to the Enhanced Display and Alert package on the top trims. Finally, the 6.2-liter V8 option is expanded to the Z71, RST and Premier trim levels, but it requires selecting one or more packages on the Z71 and RST. Moving onto the 2022 Yukon, availability of the 6.2-liter V8 expands to the AT4 trim, and the big V8 comes with a shiny pair of exhaust finishers. Redwood Metallic paint joins the exterior color palette, more wheel options are on offer, and illuminated sill plates can gussy up the rocker panels . An Enhanced Trailering Technology Package adds 13 cameras with the option for an interior accessory camera for those with enclosed haulers. On the safety side, expect reverse automatic braking to join the list of available driver assistance features. Inside, the Yukon welcomes the 12.3-inch digital cluster, the Yukon Denali welcomes the power sliding console as a standard feature instead of a $350 option. Related Video:
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
