Interior is dirty stained has small holes maybe even burn marks 
The Tint is old and has a purple color to it
A/C is not working but all complete , Heater core is bypassed I assumed it must be leaking so previous owner bypassed.
Speedometer does not work and the odometer does not work there is no wires hooked to sensor on trans as it is electronic and I have not had time yet to trace the wires.

More info.
The Jimmy is very fun to Drive has a huge lift and practically new tires one is new as I popped last week and had to replace, would make an excellent mud truck or trail rig as I have taken it out and climbed some big hills in 4x4 to make sure she is running properly. I also drove 70 miles on the freeway to make sure she is dependable and road worthy.

The best part 
Current smog 
Current Tags 
Clean title in my Name
All the expensive stuff I have replaced in past 3 months that was broken such as transfer case, driveshaft, radiator, tires, etc
Has nice head unit stereo w a remote but needs new speakers.

Please ask if you have any questions I will  tell you the honest truth I don't like surprise

I'm confident someone will love and enjoy this truck as a driver or possibly paint and clean it up into a beauty , unfortunately I have lost interest after my 6 year old took one 4x4 trip w me and cried he felt unsafe and thought we were gonna roll so I plan on selling to use money towards a RZR .

I'm listing with No reserve as I have no use for the vehicle 
Buyer must pay $500 reserve within 48 hrs of auction ending and the rest to be paid in cash when vehicle is picked up, Local pickup Only.

GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings

Thu, 31 Jul 2014

The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.

2015 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon order guides reveal added power

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

General Motors' Fleet Order Guide system is often the canary in the coal mine for interesting changes on new models. The recent guide for the 2015 Corvette unveiled all sorts of changes that weren't yet known about the sports car. Now, it's time for the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon to take their bow in the spotlight, and they look worth the wait. The new midsize trucks are getting a touch more power than first thought, as well as some very nice features.
Extended Cab models of both trucks come standard with a 2.5-liter, direct-injected four-cylinder rated at 200 horsepower at 6,300 rpm and 191 pound-feet of torque at 4,400 rpm. That's a bit more than the 193 hp and 184 lb-ft originally reported for the duo. The standard transmission for the extended trucks is a six-speed manual, but the Work Truck trim is also available with an optional six-speed automatic. Towing for the four-cylinder is rated at 3,500 pounds.
Crew Cab models come standard with a 3.6-liter V6 with 305 hp at 6,800 rpm and 269 lb-ft of torque at 4,300 rpm, with a six-speed automatic. That's also somewhat different than the originally reported rating of 302 hp and 270 lb-ft. Towing for the V6 is rated at 7,000 pounds.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
