The extent of my mechanical lingo involves words like "thingies," and "Do-hickies," so please bear with me.

This vehicle was in an accident and was hit in the rear passenger side. The rear passenger wheel was at, let's just say, a "goofy" angle, and definitely was not able to be driven. It was salvaged by the insurance company and for whatever reason, they gave the stupid car back to us, so it's in our driveway. Before the accident, it was a really decent car and had a lot going for it. I asked my son (the driver and the one who was in the accident) to list everything good and here is what I got:

  • Brake Pads & Rotors (JUST replaced about 6 weeks ago)
  • Engine
  • Motor
  • Alternator
  • Tires
  • Rims
  • Seats
  • Radio
  • Steering Wheel
  • Headlights
  • Taillights
  • Driver's Side Door
  • Front Axle
  • Electronic Components
  • Mirrors

When I asked him for the list of not so good, it was much shorter:

  • Passenger Side Doors
  • Back Axel
  • Back Driver side Caliper

I know that the window does not go up all the way on the passenger door, but we have replaced the open-air-conditioning-style window with that of the Hefty-style which I have noticed is a very popular year-round window replacement amongst those who frequent Wal-Mart. I believe that is where I purchased my Hefty Window Replacements, so I'm not passing judgment, merely making an observation.

The manner in which the car was hit was such that this car would be awesome to either piece-meal out (if you're into that sort of thing) or if you have the capability to remove the motor and transmission, and maybe the alternator, I'm told that these fetch quite a nice price. Mind you, I haven't got a bloody clue what I'm talking about, I'm just repeating words I have written down, because to me they all mean, blah, blah, blah, price. Seriously, the guy asked me if I had a garage, and I thought that was the dumbest question because I have a two-car garage attached to my house! Yeah, come to find out, he wasn't talking about that kind of garage...I now give you permission to mock me amongst your friends tomorrow.

So, my mission is to get rid of this banged up and bruised piece of once-beloved car out of my driveway, the sooner the better. The price I'm asking is what was recommended I ask for it, but hey, everything is negotiable, even barterable (I don't think I just made that word up, did I?).

A tow truck WILL be required to transport this beauty, so do keep that in mind.  Unfortunately, I do not have the funds to donate to that cause, so that will be the buyer's responsibility.  Maybe ya'll can git them folks from Lizard Lick to come hep ya. ;-)

Any questions, feel free to contact me.  I might not have the answer right away, but I'm pretty sure I can get it quick enough. Thanks for looking and putting up with me :-)

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

Sunday Drive: From a mid-engine 'Vette to a restomod RV

Sun, Jan 7 2018

Automotive enthusiasts are a diverse bunch. As proof, we present last week's top posts on Autoblog, starting with some really good spy photos of the upcoming mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette. Will it be sold alongside a classic front-engine 'Vette? We have no idea, but we can't wait to find out. Up next is a pickup truck. Can't get much further from a supercar, right? At least both the Corvette and the 2019 Ram 1500 – which will debut a radical new design that appears to eschew the mini big-rig look of past Rams in favor of something more refined – are both American. Decidedly not American? The Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV. The boxy off-road 'ute looks a heck of a lot like the old one, which is probably a good thing, but we know it'll be fancier and more luxurious than ever before. Check out the leaked images below. Also hailing from Germany, but sharing absolutely nothing else in common at all, is the Audi A4 Allroad. We've been driving this all-wheel-drive wagon for a while now, and we like it quite a bit. And, last but not least, is a 1959 bus that's been converted into an RV. Like we said, y'all certainly are a diverse bunch.
