Below are a list of options and details. Any questions please contact me.
This van was bought new buy me in March of 2003. Fully loaded with just about every option, and then some. I am the original and only owner. Driven only by me, not my guys. The oil was changed every 3-5 thousand miles. 90% of oil changes were done by same shop. im almost positive he can print that out for proof. Tranny fluid was replaced twice. (synthetic) Rear fluid replaced twice (synthetic) Motor oil also synthetic. I washed and cleaned this van on a daily basis since new. I received daily compliments on how sharp the van looks. You will not find a better van of the same year and mileage.
This work truck drives down the road very good and is comfortable to drive.
2003 was the year it was redesigned. Previous ones cannot compare to this generation van. If you look up reviews on the 2003 express 3500 you will not be disappointed. its been given close to 5 out of 5 stars. It certainly has the wear and tear of 2003 work vehicle. This van was a hard worker and never let me down. ever! It never left me on the side of the road. None of thewear and tear is out of the ordinary. But if your going to point out every imperfection this van is not for you. goto chevy and buy a new. Dont waste my time. id rather keep it. It was driven up until i got my new truck a year ago. its been sitting since. Except for a little drive every once in a while. I even changed the oil before i stopped driving it. The only reason i stopped driving it is because i bought a new truck. Not because of any issues with the truck. Unfortunatley it doesnt look as good as it did when i drove it everyday. But like i said, for the mileage and amount of work i did out of this truck you will not be dissapointed. But far from perfect.
I replaced alot parts on this van. alot i have reciepts for. And alot of repairs i do not have receipts.
you cant walk out of the dealer with this van for less then $28,000-$30,000.
It has $3,000 in dealer options. Which are:
1. Express Access
2. Express Access plus
3.Locking rear diff. (it is an animal in the snow. you will not get stuck)
3.Captain seats. (drive side has big tear in it where you sit. still comfortable)
4.Vinyl floor in the front.
5. 9,600 gvw
6. Side cargo Doors
7. 373 gears
8. Chrome Accessory package (halogeb head lamps. not the ugly black ones) chrome front and rear grill.
The Express Access is a MANUFACTURE installed option. The side panels of the van open with remote. One of the Best features ever designed on a van if your in the service business. You can access all your stuff from the outside. Contractors use to drull at this option when we were on job. The doors do new shocks. you have to lift them up by hand.
It has the tow Package with hitch. I also recently had someone re wire the trailer wiring with a 7 pin plug. it also had electric brake set up installed. Never used. something was wrong with the brake controller and i just never used. All i towed was a very light 5x9 sometimes.
i had the system one racks installed. Thats about $800.00 new. Yes it has the built in tie down winches. I never had to look for a bungee cord.
This van has brand new 245 75 16 atz all terrain tires. Brand New!! Almost $800.00
I had an alarm put in with remote start. Very nice in the winter months.
Which reminds me, this van has never left the yard without being warmed up since i had the remote start installed. it was installed sometime in 2003.
After marke stero with fosgate amp, 10’ sub and pioneer flip up tv navigation. the whole stereo i think is shot. the radio barely works, so im not sure about the amp and sub. it might or might not work. but it will be in there.
billet grill also installed. with a lund visor and bug shield.
Not that long ago i had the whole exhaust replaced with a original equitment.
In December of 2011 mileage 200000 i had the following work done. I have the reciept. Remember th van is somewhere around 203,000 miles.

New exhaust system. Dont remember when, i did it. lost receipt.
but it was a oem rplacement. About a thousand installed
i put a brand new battery in the van today 8/3/2013
van was just inspected in ny.
Im sure there are things i am forgetting.
Its in great shape. Looks very good going down the road and pulling in your customers driveway or on the job site. Not perfect.
It Needs a wind shield because it has a crack across it. your glass insurance should cover it for free. if not, i can have it done through my ins before it goes off the road for the cost of my deductable which you will pay for. but it will be on my time. i would also need a deposit from you if i did that.
The side cargo door hinge needs some attention. the hinges get frozen and become diffucult to open one of the doors. the radio is probably shot. it plays music but didnt hold up well.
There were factory installed lights installed throughout the van. most of them broke from materials. plugs are there. youcan get new lights if you want.
drive seat has a tear.
and there might be one or 2 other very small not important issues. not as important as all the new parts.
i think it needs the neutral safety switch. ill explain.
the lettering also has to come off before the truck leaves the yard. the vinyl should come off no problem with a little heat. i can help with that.
like i said, in this price range, and make and model you will not find a better van with this mileage. the motor sounds like it can go another 100k
any used van can be risky. and any thing can go wrong with a high mileage van. But if this is your budget, this is your work truck. it is ready togo and will pay for itself first week. i would rather this van with 200k miles then a 1500 series or even 3500 series that has not been maintained with 100k miles.
Please be a serious buyer if you inquire. the history of the truck is documented. The price i am asking is $6,500.00 I dont want to stray to far from that number. please no UNREASONABLE OFFERS! I would rather keep it.
I was so happy with this van, i ordered the exact same one factory direct fully loaded. it did not come ontime because of a recall on the pitman arm. so i ended up in a chevy silverado 3500 utility body. I regret not waiting for the van. The van cost me $30,000 just to get it out of the dealer. the new ones upgraded like mine i believe are almost $38,000-$40,000 out the door.
Thank you for looking,
Jason,

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*
Fri, 26 Apr 2013After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
