This 1998 GMC Sierra K1500 SLE Extended Cab 4x4 is in very good condition with 111318 original miles.  I have owned this truck since January of 2002.  I bought this truck in Illinois and have rarely driven it in the winters on salty Illinois roads, hence the lack of typical frame and body rust that is common in the "rust belt".  Since, I have moved to southern California where the truck now resides.  The paint is the original Summit White that still shines bright, it has been waxed regularly. There are some areas of wear and tear, particularly above the right rear bumper, there is a ding as pictured. The interior is the gray cloth that is in very good condition.  The truck was never smoked in.  There is a 6-way electric adjustable drivers seat, both seats have electric lumbar support.  The rear bench seat folds for extra room.  The AM/FM radio, cassette, and CD player are all in working condition, and all the speakers are working as well.  The AC blows cold and the heat works great too.  The dash is in very good condition, just some very minor cracks around fasteners near the windshield.  The power windows and locks along with the remote keyless entry are all working. The truck came equipped with the overhead console. 

I have performed all regular maintenance and any upgrades.  All these records will be available to the buyer.  The engine oil, transmission, differential(front and rear), chassis components, u-joints, ball joints have all been oiled or lubed with Mobil synthetic products since 2002. If you are familiar with the "R" model 5.7L engines you are aware of the intake manifold gasket's potential to eventually leak coolant.  I have upgraded this gasket with the updated Felpro gasket.  There are NO coolant leaks.  The fuel pump was replaced last year as well as the fuel line to the fuel filter.  I updated this fuel line with the newer nylon line instead of the steel line.  The distributer cap and rotor, spark plug wires have been replaced.  There is a K&N rechargeable air filter installed.  The catalytic convertors were replaced with MagnaFlow stainless steel pipe and convertors mounted to true dual exhaust with two galvanized steel glass packs and chrome exhaust tips. 

The truck rides on a heavy-duty chassis with the heavy-duty trailering option that includes the factory installed transmission oil cooler.  The axle ratio is 3.73 driving new Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac LT285/75R16 mounted on 16 aluminum wheels.  Front rotors, calipers/pads, rear drums and brakes were all replaced. Brake lines to the rear wheels have been replaced.  Two new front hubs were installed.  The ball-joints show no play.  The u-joints and center bearing on the driveline have been replaced with heavy duty u-joints and bearing.  There is a 3 inch body lift professionally installed along with a very mild suspension lift.  The 8 foot truck bed is great for hauling and with the included truck bed shell/topper you can keep those items out of the elements.  The truck bed shell/topper is painted to match the trucks Summit White paint.  The truck bed is equipped with the original plastic bed protector.  Another special feature of this truck is the auxiliary battery capability, while not installed at this time, you can have two batteries hooked up for extra power and safety.     

This truck is not California compliant.  The truck is 49 state legal.  It passed the California emissions portion , but the catalytic convertors are 49 state, non-California compliant therefore it didn't pass the visual inspection.   The truck passes Illinois emissions with no problem and I imagine it would pass any other state(ex. California) with no problems.  There is no "service engine" light on.

If there are any other questions regarding the truck please feel free to email those and I will respond as soon as possible.  I prefer local pick-up for the truck but I would be happy to assist in delivery of the truck as long as transportation to the local major airport with airline service is provided.  Buyer is responsible for cost of shipping and/or delivery.  A $500 deposit is required upon winning bid, remainder of payment required with 7 days of auction closing.  Cash, certified bank check are accepted.  Personal check may be accepted but will require the check to clear before shipment and delivery.  The truck will be sold "AS-IS".  There is no existing or provided warranty. Mileage may be more than shown in listing as the truck is still driven.   

Bid with confidence! You will not be disappointed with this truck, it has been meticulously maintained as I take pride in having safe, reliable, and well-maintained vehicles.  Thanks for looking and happy bidding!!!!

GM issues stop-sale for 3 SUVs over incorrect MPG rating

Fri, May 13 2016

This week, GM sent a memo to Chevy, GMC, and Buick dealers to tell them to stop selling three SUVS. The 2016 Chevy Traverse, the GMC Acadia, and the Buick Enclave all have EPA window stickers that show higher fuel economy ratings than the vehicles actually have. Unlike other recent – and very public – fuel economy ratings problems from VW and Mitsubishi, it doesn't seem like GM did anything wrong with the testing for these vehicles, it just misprinted the labels. New labels are being printed and should arrive at dealerships this weekend and early next week. After that, the SUVs will be able to be sold and delivered again. The official fuel economy rating for the three SUVs are all the same. The correct numbers for the all-wheel drive versions are 17 miles per gallon combined, 15 city, and 22 highway. The stickers say the SUVs get 17/24/19. The front-wheel driver models were also incorrectly labeled, and the total number of affected vehicles is 59,823. In the memo, GM said the problem was caused by an "inadvertent error," Automotive News says. GM is working with the EPA to solve the issue. We have asked GM for a comment on the mistake and will update this post if we hear back. Related Gallery 2013 GMC Acadia View 16 Photos News Source: Automotive News – sub. req.

GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy

Mon, 05 May 2014

With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Diesel details: Comparing Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, Chevy Silverado Duramax, Ford F-150 Powerstroke

Thu, Jun 13 2019

With specifications for the 2019 Ford F-150 Power Stroke diesel already out, and the details on the 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and Chevy Silverado Duramax (and its GMC Sierra twin) trickling out, we felt it was a good time to start comparing the full-size trucks' light-duty diesels. Bear in mind, we've only driven one of these new diesel trucks, so we'll be sticking to numbers for now. Some numbers haven't been announced yet, either, but stay tuned, because we'll be updating this post with additional specifications as they become available. And if you want to compare any other versions of these trucks with other vehicles, be sure to check out our comparison tool. Now let's start comparing, starting with our big chart of numbers below. As we can plainly see, these trucks are quite closely matched. Each one has six cylinders, a displacement of 3.0 liters and a turbocharger to boost it. The output of each is somewhat close, too. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel is the torque king at 480 pound-feet, 20 more than the GM trucks and 40 more than the Ford. The GM trucks win on power, though, with 277 ponies, 17 more than the Ram, and 27 more than the Ford. GM does report that you get their trucks' peak 460 pound-feet of torque from 1,500 rpm to 3,000 rpm, whereas the others only report peak torque at a particular point in the rev band, but all of these trucks should have wide, flat torque curves as you would expect from modern turbodiesels. 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel View 8 Photos Engine output is only one part of the truck performance equation. We also have towing and payload capacity, as well as fuel economy. With towing, the Ram 1500 is the current leader with a maximum capacity of 12,560 pounds. That tops the Ford F-150's 11,400-pound tow rating by well over 1,000 pounds. The F-150 can carry 2,020 pounds in its bed, but we don't know yet whether that's better or worse than the Ram or the GM trucks. We also don't have numbers for the GM trucks' towing capacities. View 9 Photos As for fuel economy, the Ford F-150 manages a thoroughly impressive 22 mpg in the city and 30 on the highway with two-wheel drive. Choosing four-wheel drive drops those numbers to 20 and 25 respectively. The fuel economy numbers for the Ram, Chevy and GMC haven't been revealed yet, but for some comparison, we can look at the old Ram EcoDiesel. That truck's best fuel economy was 20 in the city and 27 on the highway with two-wheel drive.
