2007 Chevrolet C 4500 (Top Kick, Kodiak, Custom Toy Hauler).We bought this truck new for $85,000 This is one the last trucks of its kind. GM retired this truck so you better get it while you still can. This beauty is hard loaded and ready to haul. We bought this truck new and used it to haul around random equipment. A traveling supervisor came out of a 1 ton dodge to this beast. He hauled a 12' enclosed trailer from location to location. The air ride seats make this truck far superior to any of its competition. You can make 16hr trips and get out with out aching back and legs. If your a truck driver you know what I mean. This is a show stopper, head turning conversation piece. There is not one stop light that goes by that men, women and especially children don't stare. This driver of this truck is an ex big rig truck driver, not one bit of maintenance was skipped, or over looked, he comes from a line of truck drivers, his dad and 2 brothers also drive for a living. We spared no expense on maintaining this truck for instance we just put $2500 into it last week,(New water pump, and hydro booster, full transmission service, oil change, air filter change, fuel filter change) knowing it was going to be but on ebay. So you can buy with confidence. Every oil change was done and with a Lucas oil stabilizer additive. This truck is large and in charge and has tremendous torque off the line, We installed a PPE Computer programmer for better fuel mileage and power. All kidding aside she is quick on her feet, averages 14mpg, and can pull a heavy load out of a hole with out even trying. You will truly be impressed by the power in the motor and the transmission. Don't let the mileage scare you, if you know duramax, you know this motor is just getting broken in, and given they are all highway miles it has many years left in it. The Allison transmission is a true match for this motor and truck, no shutters, or slips at all. Now reminding you we never missed a service. There a set of gently used Michelins 225/70R19.5 XZE, all the way around that cost about 3k. The interior of this truck is truly one of a kind, It is so nice the wife and kids would love to ride around in it. Just check out the pictures. Both front seats are full air ride, the back seat is motorized and turns into a bed, very convenient when on the road for a long journey. Rear entertainment system (DVD, Tv Combo FM modulated or wireless headphones). Wood grain interior accents, wood grain steering wheel. For towing around your toy hauler or just tossing your Harley on the bed this has many options. 2 Cylinder jake break, PTO that was never used and can be converted into your choice, only to keep the motor revved up in colder conditions . Exterior plug for colder mornings, Prodigy Break controller, Back up camera, Gooseneck in bed with 7 pin connector on bed. 4 pin and additional 7 pin on back with regular hitch. Gooseneck ball is removable so you can haul your bike around with no problem. Rear independent air suspension with dump switch in the cab, so hooking up to a trailer is even easier. Heated power mirrors. When this custom package was put together they used a noise dampening dynamat lining in all the doors, aftermarket radio, aftermarket speakers drivers and tweeters. The bed is truly unique, it has 4 independent locking tool boxes, Led lights in every location possible, including the mud flaps. At night there is no missing this beast. Front Billet grille and side ram air grille were installed. Clear led turn signals. Having said all that there are no dents, one aluminum side step has some cosmetic damage, Passenger side rear fender has a bend in it and very few minor scratches none worth mentioning, one pillar piece behind the drivers door is cracked (see pictures, were not hiding anything) It was waxed, washed, and detailed more than I could even imagine, no bug sat on this truck for more than a few hours, We are sad to put this truck up for sale considering all the money we invested. but need to sell it to someone who can use it to its full capacity. You are bidding on a mans mans truck, want to make your neighbor jealous or give them something to talk about this is it, Just park it next to a new King Ranch and watch the other driver walk by his truck to check this one out. Every kid that passes by thinks its from the Transformer movie, slap you an Autobot or decepticon sticker on there and leave a smile on every kid that checks it out. You can pull up in this thing, and instantly have something in common with everyone there. So bid on this truck not just for you but for you neighbors, friends, colleagues, wife, children, and random strangers.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
