89 Chevy S10 Shortbed 5-speed Pick Up "low Mileage" on 2040-cars

Okay
so I’ve got this truck I’m selling;- it’s an ’89 S-10, 2.5 liter 4-cylinder
5-speed, short bed standard cab with 97,000 miles. I bought it last year with a blown head
gasket and some front end damage (bent bumper, hood, grill). My Son and I did a valve job, bolted new metal
on the front, replaced the radiator and battery and have been driving it ever
since. It runs very well, has good
tires, brakes, clutch, glass, tracks nice-n-straight down the road, shifts
good, doesn’t have any funny noises or vibrations and the check engine light is
connected and functions as designed. With that said, it’s a 25 year old truck and although it has very low mileage it’s “been around”. The paint is just okay; it’s not peeling or cracking, it’s just not “nice” nor would it be any better with wax probably? It has a few rust spots (above the pass side rear wheel bottom of the pass-side door, and both rear cab corners), but the doors and tailgate close good, and the glass seals good so my guess is it doesn’t have any hidden major rust underneath nor has it probably ever been wreck other than the front sheet metal. If I was to keep and use this truck as a daily driver, I’d charge the AC, replace the blower motor (squirrel cage doesn't spin), install new exhaust from the catalytic converter back (currently drops in front of the rear axle so it sounds like a “young Man’s truck” :), replace the windshield wiper blades, maybe some carpet over the rubber mat, one of those dash covers that Velcro on, a head liner? and for sure a new media player. But if you need a truck to drive from point A to point B without any frills and minimal difficulty this would work fine for the low mileage, good fuel economy inexpensive truck you’ve been looking for to do just that A $200 deposit is due within 48-hours of closing and balance is due within 7-days. Paypal is preferred but not required and if you have less then a 97% rating or less then 10 transactions please contact me before bidding. I’d
like to sell before I get busy this summer so I have the truck listed both
locally as well as on Ebay. Ask for Chip Thanks

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?
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
