This '95 Ghevy van has less than 34k original miles! Royal blue plush interior and oak trim in good shape. Engine runs strong and quiet, with a smooth automatic transmission. Plenty of power for cruising and/or passing.
Undercoated and brand new wide tires all the way around. Separate fusebox for the Glaval Gladiator conversion package, operates back seat which reclines into a full-sized bed, overhead lights, stereo, TV, etc.
Gladiator package was done before flat-screens, so the TV is old-school with VCR and remote. :-) Frame is good, motor is strong, miles are LOW, LOW, LOW. The 360 gas engine isn't all that "friendly" on gas mileage for "around town" but it does alright on the highway (at 65-80 m.p.h optimal gas mileage) with PLENTY of power for passing and/or hills. Rides smoothly and quietly, empty or filled with 7-passenger capacity.
Terrific vehicle for "road trips" with no motels, for camping & recreation, or even for large families. We used it only occasionally for beach trips, concerts, and trips to Maine. Has always been reliable and safe, but original tires were aged and cracked so I just replaced them with wide tires-- which helped to smooth out the ride/steering even more.
Issues that will need to be addressed:
~ last summer, an exhaust pipe hanger let go and I removed the tailpipe from the muffler back. Will need pipe replaced.
~various grilles missing from speakers, etc. ... sound system could be updated from the nineties to the 2000's! (headphones not really used these days)
~could use some wiring trouble-shooting in the overhead console 'cause there are a couple of dome lights that don't work.
~some rust showing around rear bumper and rocker panels (both sides) as shown in pictures. s/b be caught soon before it gets worse.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
