1979 Chevrolet C20 Cheyenne 3/4 Ton

If your first thought after seeing the lead picture is "Gee, I wonder what kind of gas mileage this very utility-oriented truck gets in and around town" (or something similarly pathetic), for the love of god DON'T MESSAGE ME. I don't want to hear about how you're looking for something to haul brush on the weekends or that you want to use it to get a load of organic compost for your herb garden. If that's you, you can't handle this truck. This thing runs on beer farts and broken dreams, so you can be damn sure it won't be caught hauling some wuss-ass brush around your well manicured lawn (that you don't maintain) over in Pemberton Heights, Tarrytown, or Westlake.

Two Points:

  • This is a real truck for that divorce you're inevitably going to go through. (Hauled me through mine)
  • This is a real truck to start and rev when your daughter comes home too late with that dipshit excuse for man, Ashby (or some other rich-ass, pretty-boy name). Just watch how fast he runs when those horror movie-esque dim yellow headlights hit the side of his well exfoliated face. (Yup, got a daughter too)

This is a real truck.

Mechanical

Starts every time and scares the hell out of the neighbors. The carburetor is new (600 CFM Edelbrock), the tranny has a shift kit, it has long tube headers and flowmasters, and the rear end is a positraction unit. The wheels are later model 16" with decent tires (still plenty of tread) and no, I don't have the original 16.5 inch wheels that were original equipment on the truck. Doesn't leak oil.  

Exterior

All original and ugly as shit. Straight and no cancer anywhere other than the two front corners of the hood, but ugly as shit.

Interior

Original and ugly as shit.  Seat foam is all there and no springs try to intrude into your ass, but the windshield has a crack and it's all ugly as shit.

Don't ask me if you can "buy it now" -- man-up and make me an offer if you want it so damn bad.  No reserve -- good luck.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

Chevrolet Malibu gets across-the-board price cuts, hopes to dig out of slump

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

To say that things aren't going well for the newly redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a pretty sizable understatement. Reports have been swirling about the Malibu getting an emergency design refresh, less than a year after its introduction, as well as having its production at the Fairfax Assembly Plant halted twice already this year for excessive inventory. Now, Motor Trend is reporting that the midsize sedan will be receiving price drops across the board ranging from $300 on a number of models up to $770 on the 1LT trim; offsetting some of MSRP drop, though, the destination charge has increased from $760 to $810.
Without destination, the entry-level Malibu LS now starts at $21,995, which is still about $300 more than a Honda Accord and about $300 less than the segment's top-selling Toyota Camry. This new pricing also drops the price of the Eco, 2LT and 3LT trims by $300. The LTZ trim has dropped by $415, meaning that the Malibu's top dog now starts at just under $30,000, excluding destination.
Here are the new starting prices for all eight of the Malibu trim levels compared to the previous prices for the 2013 model year (including destination):
