Offering for sale our PA titled 1997 Chevrolet High Top Conversion Van by Explorer. Kindly note that this van is titled in Pennsylvania, but is physically located and will need picked up in Port St. Lucie, Florida.  Port St. Lucie is about 40 minutes north of West Palm Beach airport.  Fly in and drive home!  We'll pick you up at the airport, drive you to the notary to sign off on the title and send you on your way! The van is also loaded with a full tank of gasoline to get you on your way home - our compliments to you!

This van has a few cosmetic issues on the front and rear bumpers as seen in the pictures. The top too, is a tad faded. We bought it with these imperfections because in our minds it doesn't impact the value of this van. We just purchased this van in late March 2014 for the purpose of loading it up with personal items and driving it to and from our Florida home on a few occasions.

When we purchased it in March 2014, we had it go through a PA inspection and had the following work performed: four new Goodyear Wrangler tires installed, a new Interstate battery, and we decided to go ahead and have the shop replace the fuel pump as well. It would start, but sometimes you'd have to turn the key to ignite it quickly or pump the pedal to get the gas flowing. Apparently this was a common issue with this model and year of Chevy van, so knowing that we didn't want to get stuck on our initial drive from PA to FL, we had the fuel pump and assembly replaced. It starts right up with no issues. Family members who come to visit have used the van in the interim on their "vacations" and just love it!

The interior is in great shape! No carpet stains, no smoke smell (we are non smokers), the leather is beautiful and looks in new condition. No wear marks to note. The headliner and wood trim are in great shape too. Also, there's a power inverter that we had put in this van. It draws from the main battery, and it's great for the addition of a DVD player or any other electronic you'd want to run in the van. Also, 3 "cigarette" style plug in's are near the inverter in addition to the one up front. It's great for charging multiple cell phones.

The van comes equipped with manual fabric blinds for extra privacy all around.  A television, VHS Player, DVD Player and pre-wired SNES hookups (add your own system) keep the little (and big) ones entertained.  All surround interior "mood" lights work perfectly.  Power windows, doors, locks and rear bed. 

You'll notice on the exterior that the typical wide style pin striping for this year has been removed. We used the 3m eraser wheel to take them off as we didn't like the outdated look. Some impressions still remain where the clear coat was applied. Refer to pictures as they do serve as part of the item description.  The smaller pin stripes still remain tastefully around the windows, etc.

Overall, this van is in very good condition other than the minor exterior bumps and bruises. We'd drive it anywhere, but a lifestyle change for us necessitates the sale of this van at this time.

This is an AS-IS transaction.  It is up to you, the buyer, to inspect this vehicle PRIOR to purchase.  Once you bid, you are entering into a legally binding contract to purchase this car.

Cash / cashier's check purchase only!

NOTE: Payment and vehicle pick-up are required within 3 days of auction end.

Worldwide, Nissan Leaf has outsold next two competitors combined

Tue, Apr 28 2015

Nissan may not be meeting some of the more optimistic prognostications with sales of its Leaf electric vehicle, but it's certainly kicking the competition's butt. EV Sales is tracking global sales of plug-in vehicle models and estimates that Nissan has sold almost 172,000 units of the Leaf worldwide. That's more than the two next-best-selling plug-ins combined. Globally, EV Sales estimates, the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in has moved about 88,000 units, while Toyota has sold about 71,000 of its Prius Plug-in Hybrid vehicles worldwide. Fourth-place Tesla Model S is close behind at about 66,000 units. Among automakers, Nissan is also by far the lead dog, but Mitsubishi has leapfrogged Chevrolet among plug-in vehicle makers, as the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid continues to sell well. Impressively, the relatively new BMW i3 has moved almost 23,000 units since its debut in Germany last year. As for Nissan, company chief Carlos Ghosn said at the New York Auto Show earlier this month that the company could sell as many as 50,000 units a year of the Leaf in the US, provided that charging infrastructure throughout the country improves. Earlier this year, cumulative US Leaf sales moved past 75,000 units since its late-2010 launch.

GM will stop reporting monthly U.S. vehicle sales

Tue, Apr 3 2018

DETROIT — General Motors said on Tuesday it will stop reporting monthly U.S. vehicle sales, saying the 30-day snapshot does not accurately reflect the market, and will instead issue quarterly sales. GM will also no longer report monthly sales in China, its largest market, and Brazil. GM will provide monthly data to the U.S. Federal Reserve, industry associations and government agencies across the globe, but that data is not made public. Analysts and investors rely on monthly U.S. vehicle sales not just to track the performance of individual automakers, but as a barometer of the health of the world's second-largest auto market and as an indicator of consumer confidence in the U.S. economy overall. GM and its Detroit rivals Ford and Fiat Chrysler have relied heavily on sales of high-margin pickup truck and SUV sales to boost profits. GM's total U.S. sales, its second-largest market, are down 3.2 percent for the first two months of 2018, reflecting a 6.8 percent drop in retail sales to individual customers, the company reported last month. GM executives have expressed frustration that comparisons of monthly U.S. sales results among rival automakers are distorted by short-term discount programs, and by differences in strategy for selling vehicles in bulk to rental car fleets. "Thirty days is not enough time to separate real sales trends from short-term fluctuations in a very dynamic, highly competitive market," Kurt McNeil, U.S. vice president for sales operations said in a statement. GM's actions could prompt other automakers to also switch to quarterly U.S. sales reports. Major automakers will report March U.S. new vehicle sales on Tuesday. Until the early 1990s, most U.S. automakers released sales results every 10 days. The former Chrysler Corp. stopped reporting sales on a 10-day basis in 1990, and rivals followed suit over the next three years. GM executives are betting that investors will quickly adapt to receiving U.S. sales data every three months, as investors in other retail sectors already have. Retailers such as Walmart report sales on a quarterly basis. Reporting by Joe WhiteRelated Video: Image Credit: Reuters Earnings/Financials Green Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC US

Chevy to offer new Cruze as a hatchback in the US

Mon, Jun 22 2015

Chevrolet plans to offer a five-door hatchback version of the new Cruze in the United States, according to the latest intel from Automotive News. In addition to the sedan form we're familiar with, the outgoing Cruze was offered as a hatchback in some markets overseas, but not in America – a decision which Mark Reuss, GM's EVP in charge of product development, characterized as "a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake." The new Chevy Cruze is set to debut later this week. Although the American automaker has yet to confirm which bodystyles will be offered where, AN reports that a five-door model was already shown to dealers at their national meeting in Las Vegas last week. AN points out that the Ford Focus with which the new Cruze will be contending is offered as both a sedan and hatchback in America, with the latter accounting for some 40 percent of sales.
