I am selling my 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe LT. it has the 5.3 vortec engine with 217xxx miles, all highway miles and with these engines, that many miles is nothing, especially highway. I have researched online and these trucks will last for well over 300k if properly maintained. I am the 2nd owner, the previous owner took excellent care of it: full synthetic oil whenever the computer said it was time to change and it has had full synthetic for its whole life, and maintenance and/or part replacements as needed. I have also taken great care of the car with always Mobil 1 full synthetic and ran 91 octane gas. Like I said, the car runs like a dream. Even with the high mileage it is as tight as a drum. When I got it tuned by blackbear, the tuner said he was amazed that the engine was running that close to brand new. The truck has all leather, heated, power seats. All power windows and locks. Cruise control. AC works great, ice cold! The tires (Yokohama Geolandar) have a lot of life left on them as well, around 25k miles before they need to be replaced. I just replaced both the front and rear brake pads with ceramic pads, the truck stops on a dime! There is also a spare wheel that comes with the truck.

The truck has some performance parts on it: K&N intake kit, LPP Sainless Steel Headers with Off Road Y-Pipe, Stainless Steel Magnaflow Exhaust, Corvette Servo for quick shifts and longer transmission life, electric fans for better cooling and more mpg, performance tuned by BlackBear Performance for better drivability, Eibach Anti-sway Bars for better handling and more stable ride. I have also installed black halo headlights, altezza tail lights and a black grille. I have also blacked out the bumpers, side molding and rims with plasti-dip, so if you don't like the black look, it peels off like a sticker, and the chrome is still in great shape underneath. I also have a Pioneer head unit and Pioneer speakers with the stock amp and subwoofer. All the parts were installed by a professional mechanic. I also have some of the stock parts that come with the truck. This truck is a great cruiser and has LOTS of power when you need it! Ready to be lowered or lifted!

All the performance mods have given some added mpg. The truck gets around 15 city and 19-20 freeway, which is 2-3 mpg more than stock. Plus with the added low end torque, you can drive the truck at less than 2000rpm to save gas and still be faster than others when the light turns green. The only thing the truck needs is an alignment. The wheels and tires are straight as an arrow, but the steering wheel is off center, and my mechanic said an alignment will fix that.  I am selling the car in "As Is" condition.

Chevy, GMC and Ram dealers are worried they'll run out of new pickups

Wed, May 6 2020

One of the unexpected side effects of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic is a shortage of pickups at Chevrolet, GMC and Ram dealers. Supplies are running out, and the factories that build these trucks remain closed. Stores across the nation began increasing incentives in March, when the first stay-at-home orders were issued, in a bid to continue luring buyers into showrooms. They also launched online sales channels, or expanded their existing digital business. Sales nonetheless plummeted in April 2020, but in-demand vehicles, like the Ram 1500 and the Chevrolet Silverado, are still selling relatively well thanks in part to the aforementioned incentives. Pickups outsold sedans for the first time in April 2020, according to The Detroit News, by 17,000 units. The problem is that General Motors, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), and Ford temporarily closed their factories in March. "The pipeline is very dry," said Mike Maroone, the CEO of a large dealership group named Maroone USA, in an interview with Automotive News. He told the publication his Chevrolet stores are sitting on a 30-day supply of the Silverado, which is one of America's best-selling vehicles. "That is a problem for us," he concluded. Coronavirus-related lockdowns and factory closures compound problems already faced by dealerships who represent General Motors-owned brands. They entered 2020 with a thinner inventory than a year earlier due to the 40-day United Auto Workers (UAW) strike that paralyzed the company late in 2019, and the 0%, 84-month offers announced in March have sapped supply. Ram wasn't affected by a strike, but it has relied heavily on generous incentives to move trucks off lots. Ford, on the other hand, limited incentives to 2019 models. Inventory levels differ greatly from region to region. The national average for the Silverado stood at an 82-day supply in March 2020, down from 120 in March 2019. Ram stores had a 114-day supply of the 1500 (compared to 134 a year earlier), while Ford bucked that trend with a 111-day supply versus 84 in 2019. Don't panic if you're in the market for a truck; we're not facing a complete drought. Automotive News added that America's light-duty pickup inventory could fall to 400,000 units by the end of May, and drop further to 260,000 units in June. For context, there were about 700,000 light-duty trucks in stock in May and June of 2019. That's unquestionably a sharp drop, but there will still be over a quarter of a million trucks to choose from.

Car owners getting more irritated with their repair experiences, study says

Thu, Mar 9 2023

The J.D. Power U.S. Customer Service Index Study (CSI) is a barometer of a vehicle owner's happiness with the service experience. While it wasn't all bad in the 2023 study, the overall owner satisfaction score dropped. This year's tally of 846 out of 1,000 is two points down from 2022, the 43-year-old study's first decline in more than 28 years, and one point down from 2021. However, the overall score remains well up from the pre-pandemic scores of 821 in 2018 and 837 in 2020. The study claims the stumbling block is the horde of BEV launches. The flood into the new energy space has created a recall rate among EVs that's more than double the rate for ICE vehicles. Furthermore, dealership service department knowledge of EVs isn't on par with internal combustion engine expertise, leaving EV owners less satisfied with service advisors compared to ICE owners. Chris Sutton, VP of automotive retail at J.D. Power, said, "As training programs for service advisors and technicians evolve, EV service quality and customer experience must address both the vehicle and the unique customer needs. The EV segment has the potential to spur massive convenience improvements in how customers service their vehicles — but weÂ’re not seeing the benefits yet." Matters are slightly worse for all owners, though, with labor and parts shortages contributing to longer wait times for service appointments. The CSI study surveys owners and lessees of one- to three-year-old vehicles to gauge their happiness with service at franchised dealer or aftermarket service facilities for maintenance or repair work. The criteria in order of importance are service quality (32%); service advisor (19%); vehicle pick-up (19%); service facility (15%); and service initiation (15%). Lexus retains the top spot for luxury brands, giving it three wins in four years. The Japanese automaker won in 2020 as well, its run interrupted by Porsche in 2021. Cadillac, Infiniti and Acura complete the luxury top 5.  For mass-market cars, Mitsubishi wins again after a victory in 2021 and falling to fourth last year. It's followed by Mazda, Buick, Subaru and Mini.  Considering the different service needs and service experience of different body styles, the study has broken results out by segment for the first time. Lexus earned a second victory thanks to winning the premium SUV segment, and Mitsubishi earned a second victory by winning the mass-market SUV/minivan category.

Motor Trend puts Chevy Camaro Z28 and Porsche 911 GT3 Head 2 Head

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.
