This is a military utility version of the Chevrolet K5 Blazer. The M1009 is a utility rig built from a Blazer and could be used for command and control, as well as officer transport.  The M1009 was rated for a 1,200 lb payload and a 3,000 lb towed load. It uses the heaviest duty GM springs available for the chassis and the rear axle is a 10-bolt unit. It rolls on the original tires and has a 6.2 liter Detroit Diesel  engine non-emissions diesel  rated at 155 hp  and 240 lb·ft and equipped with a turbo 400 transmission.  I am the only other owner than the government. I purchased it straight off a military base in Indiana. This vehicle is not perfect but is in very good condition. It has the expected amount of rust. There is rust in both front inner fenders, passenger side rocker and tail gate as well as a small area in the cab on the passenger side near the seat belt mount.. I have owned this truck since 2009. It had about 47,500 mile on it when I bought it. It has been used primarily as transportation for my daughter to and from high school. This truck is no where near perfect but is in very solid conditions. 

Glow plugs work well.

Little to no smoke on start-up.

I have replaced both batteries and the dual exhaust.

It does have rust in a few areas as mentioned above (see pictures).

The dash has a crack in the center. (see pictures)

The heater fan only works on high.

The drivers seat has a tear. (see pictures)

The passenger side head light needs the little piece that keeps it aimed.

The rear glass does not roll up completely (approx 2" short) because the crank mechanism does not work correctly which can result in water in the cab when it rains.

No spare tire.

There is a small dent on the drivers door. (see picture)

The paint is 99% original. I recently touched up several spots of oxidation on the top with spray can flat black.

Passenger side mirror glass is missing.

Please ask any questions you may have.

This vehicle is sold as is with no warranty.

Buyer is responsible for transportation after the sale.

$500.00 deposit required which is refundable if you are not satisfied when you come to get the truck.

No refunds issued after delivery of the vehicle.

Final payment cash or certified check. The title will be released once funds are in my bank account.

NO TRADES

 

 

Per government regulations this vehicle must be purchased by a US citizen and cannot be shipped outside of the US.

Leveling kit now available for Chevy Colorado, but not yet for GMC Canyon

Thu, May 14 2020

In various bits of news this year concerning the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickups, we kept hearing about a front leveling kit. GM Authority found a few details in early order guides in January. In February, the kit came up in relation to the Canyon's AT4 Off-Road Performance Package, and again with AEV's upgraded Colorado Bison. After three months of waiting, GMA has more info. The kit eliminates the trucks' raked stance by raising the front by one inch, using an electro-coated upper spacer and a polyurethane lower spacer in order to maintain the proper suspension geometry. Installation is a bolt-on job with low-profile nuts, but the task will require a spring compressor. Fitted properly, the kit doesn't void GM's new vehicle warranty on the Colorado. Why do we only mention the Colorado? Because for some reason, the kit isn't available for the Canyon yet as a standalone component; the GMC stays raked without one of the aforementioned option packages. For Chevy, the leveling kit is compatible with any trim in four-wheel drive except the ZR2. It cannot be installed on two-wheel-drive trucks, nor any truck wearing wheels that are 20 inches or above. The kit is available now, ordered through any Chevy dealer for $150. There is a treat in store for GMC buyers, though, but it requires spending a lot more money. GM Authority discovered that the 2021 Yukon will offer the brand's first illuminated emblem. Priced at $475 as a dealer-installed option, a backlit glow will show off the GMC logo in the grille. The brand makes the logo in red and black, it's thought the red logo will get the nod, at least at first. Only the front logo earns the spotlight, not the one on the tailgate. GMA says the tchotchke will be available on all four trims when the new full-size crossover goes on sale in a few months.

GM threatens predatory dealers with order cancellations, non-transferrable warranties

Fri, Jul 29 2022

General Motors will launch a second salvo against misbehaving dealerships next week with a new set of policies aimed at curbing predatory markup strategies. With the new Chevrolet Corvette Z06, GMC Hummer EV SUV and Cadillac Escalade-V about to head into production, GM is putting its foot down yet again. Dealers that attempt to circumvent GM's markup restrictions by dealing directly with brokers or other resellers could find themselves in a particularly nasty spot, as the company is threatening to withhold future allocations and end the transferability of warranties when dealers facilitate the reselling of vehicles within 12 months.  While this may help curb some dealership chicanery, it's possible the real loser in such a deal could end up being the customer who unwittingly ends up with an un-warrantied vehicle. We suspect GM has accounted for that, but we'll have to wait until next week to find out exactly how these new policies will be enforced.
