1991 Chevrolet S10. 78k miles 4.3 V6 Auto.
I recently purchased this truck at a estate sale. The original owner was a WW II veteran who was going to the nursing home. He bought it brand new at Read Chevrolet in Hoopeston Il. It still has the cheap plastic mudguards and floormats the dealer installed when new. The truck has always been garaged kept but it has always been used as a truck. It has scratches, its taken a few door dings or shopping carts to the door. The body is in great shape and has no major dents. bumpers are all straight. He did a great job of keeping from running into anything. There is NO rust issues with this truck. It has one spot in the right front fender where the paint is bubbling. Its common for these trucks with the fender flares. The paint on the hood is showing sings of flaking. I'm sure he never waxed this truck so that was the first thing I did to it. It really cleaned up nice but it is in no way perfect.
The previous owner put two new tires on the front. tires on rear are ok.When I bought it, it was making more fan noise under the hood than normal. I had it checked out and the water pump had a wobble in it so we replaced the water pump. The serpentine looks brand new so we didn't replace it. The old one is behind the seat for emergency. The ONLY thing on this truck that DOESN'T work is the temp gauge. When the water pump work was done we replaced the sending unit for the temp gauge and no success. Supposedly the temp gauge in the cluster going bad is common with these. The most cost effective solution is to buy a aftermarket temp gauge but I will leave that to the new owner. In reality I didn't need this truck, I went to the auction and its such a cute truck so I had to have it. Then when I dropped $350 on a water pump and oil change, sending unit I'm thinking I just want to get my money back out of it. I had it sold locally for $2700 but my reserve is lower than that.
The truck drives absolutely perfect. I use it occasionally to commute on my 27 mile trip to work.Its a real step back in time when you sit in it. A/C blows cold. Cruise control works. Some people have a problem with the transmissions in these trucks. They were put in everything and I've had more than one rebuilt and none of them shift as nice as this one does. If taken care of you can expect another 100k miles on the trans and even more on the motor. The steering is very tight .No rattles .No disappointments when driving this truck. Has power steering and brakes. All the glass is good.
The headliner does sag and at 6ft 1 it is a nuisance for me. Tailgate works properly. The radio/cassette works but only has one working speaker. Truck has a rubber bed mat. Clean title in hand. I will be listing on craigslist and reserve the right to end the auction due to CASH MONEY.
The seat does have a small tear in it. Interior is in great shape

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.
