I have too many toys, so I have decided to sell a few of them.  This auction is for my 1995 Chevrolet K1500 4x4 Silverado.  It is a beautiful truck that needs nothing other than a new home.  It is a very reliable truck that I would drive anywhere with no concerns.

This 1995 Chevy is basically a new truck.  Everything is new. 

I have owned this truck for about 4 years.  It was painted just before I purchased it.  There was a fender bender prior to it being painted.  The driver's side cab corner and rocker were repaired.  The driver's door was also bent a bit and was replaced (easier option).  The driver's door didn't get painted on the inside (dark green)...and the rocker is still in primer.  I wasn't worried about it since I planned to use bedliner to paint the inside of the doors and the rockers on both sides.  I have not had the time to do that yet.  I do have a couple of cans of blue paint that would match that I am including in case you want to paint it blue again.  I also have a little extra paint from when the truck was painted (both colors).  The body was rust free when it was painted...and it is still rust free.  It looks nice with the medium blue paint and dark blue fender flares and Super Sport stripes on the hood.  I don't drive it in the winter.  From how clean the underside is, I would say it saw very little winter driving.  It is clean enough to eat off of...still has original paint underneath.  The body and paint still look great.  The truck is nice enough to take to shows.  It is not perfect in every way, but it is a 1995 Chevrolet and is very nice for the age.  I don't drive it off-road (too pretty).  It is a pavement pounder.  It would be a very capable off-road toy if so desired. 

The truck is all decked out.  The cowl hood is a nice steel hood.  The truck also has a sun roof.  There are tons of other extras -- Ranch Hand bumpers (front and rear), aftermarket tail lights, HID headlights, new horns, roll bar with KC Lights (never used), another pair of KC Lights on the front bumper (never used), blue windshield wipers (dual blade), vent shades, chrome diamond plate bed caps, chrome on the lower body, big whip CB antennas, chrome door handles, chrome tailgate handle, chrome fuel door cover, wiper huggies (help the windshield wipers work better), tinted windows, fender flares, rubber bed mat, etc.....way too much to list. 

It is not just pretty...everything is great mechanically, too.  There is so much to talk about...I will try to cover the basics.  The truck shows 221872 miles on the odometer.  I have driven it a little over 4000 miles since I purchased it.  During that time, everything has been gone through.  The engine was supposed to have been replaced before I purchased the truck and had low miles on it.  The 350 engine has been tuned up (belts, hoses, plugs, wires, etc.), had the timing set, and has been thoroughly checked over.  If anything needed replaced, it was replaced.  It has a new throttle body spacer (Helix Power Tower)...K&N cold air intake system...a new battery...and so on.  The truck runs great.  I never use the AC, so I am sure it needs to be recharged (if you want to use it).  The radiator is new.  The headers were just installed...with new true dual exhaust.  It sounds great with the Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers and Magnaflow tips.  The truck has 3.73 gears and has no problems at any speed whether driving it in town or on the highway.  The front differential has been replaced.  The 4-wheel-drive actuator is new.  The steering gear box is new.  The whole front end has been rebuilt (ball joints, control arm bushings, tie rod ends, etc.)...and it has been freshly aligned.  Basically everything in the front end is new.  The transfer case has been flushed and inspected.  It is in good working order.  The transmission is new (overdrive).  All u-joints in the truck are new.  The rear end has new axle shafts, bearings, seals, etc.  All brakes are new -- pads and calipers in the front, shoes in the rear, etc.  Everything has been gone through.  It is like a new truck.

The Silverado is lifted with big tires.  It is like a monster truck.  The truck has a 4" suspension lift and a 3" body lift (7 inches of lift) and new 35" Dick Cepek Crusher tires.  The tires are similar to Super Swamper Boggers but last a lot longer.  They are great tires.  The tires are mounted to nice polished aluminum wheels.  The tires make the nice hum sound going down the road.  It is like music to my ears. 

The interior is very nice for a 1995 Chevrolet truck.  The interior is blue and is very clean.  There are a couple of cigarette burns on the seats (from a previous owner - I don't smoke).  There are a couple of cracks on the dash, too.  There is minimal wear on the driver's seat.  Other than that, it is nice.  The truck has power windows and locks.  It has a Sony CD player, Sony 6.5" speakers in the doors, and a nice setup under the back seat with 2 10" Kicker subs powered by a Kicker amp.  The stereo system is basically new and sounds great.  All gauges work properly.  Everything works fine.  There are other extras, too -- pedal covers, steering wheel cover, nice floor mats in the front and back, new inside door handles (with visors and power window switch covers to match), etc.  There are many new parts...too many to mention.

This truck rides like a Cadillac going down the highway.  Even on bumpy streets in town, it still rides nice (especially for a lifted truck).  It is a nice looking truck.  It runs, drives, and sounds great.  Everyone compliments me on the truck.  I will regret selling it, but I have too many toys.

I will be happy to show you the truck if you would like to give it a personal inspection.  Also feel free to ask questions.  I may have left something out (too much information to mention on this truck).

Thanks and Happy Bidding.

Audi S4 drivers are the most accident-prone, insurance report says

Sun, Jun 25 2023

Culling data from more than 4.6 million automobile insurance applications, researchers at the Insurify insurance comparison marketplace picked a winner — or more to the point, a loser — in its determination of the car model with the most accidents so far in 2023: the Audi S4. Why does the sporty, luxury-class German sedan rank so high (or so low)? The organization found that S4 drivers, piloting a car with almost 350 horsepower, are among those who collect the most speeding tickets, and that they get into accidents at a rate 54 percent higher than the national average. If the S4 isnÂ’t a surprise with an at-fault accident rate of 11.7 percent, consider the “family friendly” brand that appears three times on the Insurity list: Subaru. It is represented by three models, including the turbocharged WRX and XV Crosstrek, and at the better-performing bottom of the list, the Subaru Impreza, with an accident rate of 10.3 percent.  In 2023, 7.6 percent of U.S. drivers were involved in at least one at-fault accident in the prior seven years. For drivers of cars on this list, the average at-fault accident rate was 10.5 percent, meaning these drivers are 1.4 times as likely to have an at-fault accident on record. According to its statement, the Insurity data science team explored key safety features, driver behavior, and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) evaluations to pinpoint possible reasons behind these carsÂ’ high accident rates. Following is the list, counting down to the models with most reported accidents: 10. Subaru Impreza (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.3 percent; MSRP base model): $19,795) 9. Kia Niro (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4 percent; MSRP base model): $26,590) 8. Chevrolet Silverado LD (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4%, MSRP base model): $34,500) 7. Subaru XV Crosstrek (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.5 percent, MSRP 6. Subaru WRX.(percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.7% MSRP base model): $29,605) 5. Toyota GR86 (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.8 percent MSRP base model): $29,900) 4. Hyundai Veloster N (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.9 percent; MSRP base model): $32,500) 3.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept

Sat, Nov 22 2014

"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.
