Up for auction is my 2003 Chevy Venture long wheel base van with 112,674 miles. I've owned this van for the last 7 years. It was originally an 8 passenger vehicle used as our family van for transporting my children. Two years ago, I converted it to a 5 passenger work van for my business. I removed the third row seating and installed some shelving for tools and an inexpensive, bolt-on ladder rack. This has been a reliable vehicle for us.

The two biggest issues are the large amounts of rust on both rocker panels and a leak in the AC line that runs to the rear AC unit. Last year, the AC was not running cold. I filled the system with refrigerant and it worked great. However, the next day, it was not cold again. I took the van to an AC shop. They verified that the compressor and front lines were fine. However, the refrigerant was leaking from a line to the rear unit. This left two options for repair. The first was to replace the rear AC lines. This was rather expensive. The second was to install a block off kit to the rear lines. This would eliminate the rear AC from working, but allow the front unit to operate correctly. These can be found on eBay for about $75.00 Here is the eBay item number to an example. 171062958346

Other than these two items, the van functions well.

I was originally going to correct the issue with a block off kit this spring. However, I decided to purchase a full size van for my business instead. I have all the seats that were removed and they will come with the vehicle. All four tires have lots of life on them and an additional complete set of four more good tires is included as well.

Please look at the photos and ask any questions that you may have. Vehicle is sold as is and has no warranty of any type.

Year: 2003

Mileage: 112,674

Local pick up in Summerville, SC 29483 only.

I will accept cash or a certified bank check only for this purchase.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

Teasers for the 2016 Chevy Volt continue, The Bowtie showing us in this latest outing how its range-extended hybrid dances on ice and snow. It will only take 42 seconds of your life so don't expect an Arctic challenge, but if you in the snow regions had any doubts about how it will handle the frozen goods, this should help assuage them. The bigger and better, more powerful and faster Volt - able to run regular fuel - will get out from under its camo at the North American International Auto Show next month. For now, enjoy the way it moves its hips in the video above. News Source: Chevrolet via YouTube, Facebook Detroit Auto Show Chevrolet Videos

Chevrolet considering midsize crossover to slot between Traverse and Equinox

Mon, Jan 9 2017

Crossovers are the new hotness, and automakers are looking to cash in by offering a size and shape for every customer. With Chevrolet's debut of the new 2018 Traverse in Detroit, which grew ever so slightly compared to the first-generation model, there is now a midsize-crossover-sized hole between the three-row Traverse and the compact Equinox. When asked about that obvious space, a Chevrolet spokesperson told us the company is looking into the possibility of expanding its crossover lineup. It should be a relatively simple thing to do, since all it would take is reskinning and rechristening the GMC Acadia with a bow tie, and we all know how much GM loves platform sharing. Although they're now different sizes, the new Acadia and Traverse still use the same platform; the Acadia is now on a short-wheelbase version of the C1XX while the Traverse uses long-wheelbase C1XX parts. A short-wheelbase Chevy built on the C1XX likely would be differentiated visually from both the Acadia and the larger Traverse. It may seem like flooding the lineup with more and more models would cannibalize sales of existing ones, but Chevrolet said it would rather have customers stay within the brand rather than going to another automaker. There have been whispers that some form of the Blazer name (possibly TrailBlazer) may make a return on a midsizer, but if it does don't expect an old-school body-on-frame SUV like the old one. In the end, if Chevy builds it, customers will come. Related Video:
