I apologize for the one-paragraph nature of this description. Ebay has screwed the seller again by taking away the ability to format. I have for sale a 1998 Chevy Silverado. I bought this truck earlier this year and just do not need it. It is in great shape mechanically and there are no issues with it. I have a company truck now that makes this vehicle unnecessary. The body is nearly perfect. The rockers and cab corners are solid and do not appear to ever have been repaired. The young man who had it before me sanded and sprayed the top of the rockers to eliminate the possibility for rust while he had it. That's why they look flatter than the rest. The only spot rust is appearing is under the weather-stripping at the bottom of the doors. There are small scratches on the driver door. They affected the color coat only. The interior is very nice. The driver's seat is the only place that shows wear. All the rest of the upholstery is in excellent condition. The steering wheel looks like it got sunbaked once upon a time. It's cosmetic only and you can see it in my pictures but it's important to me that I point it out. 2 things the truck needs: • I was going to have the front end aligned when I got the truck but it needs new tires so I'll let the new owner have it aligned after tires are mounted. • The headlamp switch should be replaced. This is a quick and easy fix but I don't keep the truck at my house and my job requires lots of travel so I'm not going to take the time to do it. Switches can be had for $40 easily. Other: • The "service engine" light stays on. This is because the catalytic converter has so many miles on it and it has no effect on the performance of the truck. I had my mechanic check it out and shut it off when I first got it but it came on again when I let it idle for about 20 minutes once. After reading over my description I think I've been pretty hard on this truck. Rest assured this is a very nice looking and driving vehicle from one of GM's best design years. The truck has been stored inside since the pictures were taken. Please contact me with any questions.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
