High End Custom Chevrolet Silverado Lowrider
What you are looking at is one of the best examples of a daily driver show truck. I built this truck to be a
headturner, a fast beast, and a daily driver. If you wanted to turn this into a show truck, it would not take
much. If you want a bad ass daily driver, look no further. Keep in mind, this is NOT a show truck so it’s not
110% perfect but damn near. I don’t abuse it but I use it and I worked hard to keep it as clean as possible and
keep idiots from ruining it. Why am I selling it? Where I live in the Midwest, this truck is not practical for so
many months out of the year and I’m not going to subject it to salt over and over again, that is a pain in the
butt. So I’m going to work on my offroad vehicles instead. It is very, very, very hard to let this truck go due
to the amount of laughs, pain, and time I have in it but I want someone else to have fun.
This truck started out as a 2001 Chevrolet Silverado and then in 2009 I purchased the truck and proceeded to
customize it. All the frame was completely redone by Xtensive Metalworks in Texas. Then a 2006 front clip was
added for an upgraded touch. Underneath the frame was made to tow three times its capacity with a hidden hitch and
rear view camera. Utilizing a KP components 4 link suspension with a Watts link in the rear combined with
ridetech’s top shocks. Up front we had RideTech personally install the front suspension with their custom A
arms, shocks, bags, you name it. The entire suspension is controlled by Accuair eLevel control with custom pod
mounted in the dash.
The engine is a stock V8 5.3 but has been heavily massaged to pump out close to 575 hp. Custom boost loop cam,
tuning, supercharger, cold ram air, electric fans, etc make this truck and absolute beast. Rounding out the engine
is a custom exhaust and muffler from Black Widow which absolutely sounds subtle and mean as hell. The amount of
people who turn heads when this truck is idling or driving by is nuts. It’s not annoying, it just commands
attention. And to be really clear, it’s fast…I mean it will blow the doors off of cars without even trying.
And I DON’T do dead stop burnouts because I did not feel like replacing the gears or axle or transmission. Which
by the way, the transmission is a performance transmission that comes with a lifetime warranty.
The entire inside of the truck was custom redone with the entire front dash being fiberglass and painted the same
color as the truck. Custom pod was built to house the speed management system and eLevel controller.
From an audio standpoint, it house two HD digital JL amps behind the rear seat powering two JL 12 subs under the
rear seat in a custom box and seperates in the rear door as well as JL’s high end component system up front and
custom tweeters in the dash pod. The sound is absolutely amazing no matter what kind of music you like, especially
coming from the Kenwood dash…..that of course has Bluetooth, microphone, etc.
The interior has custom blue led lights under the seats, dash, cup holders, and rear seat. In addition, the entire
truck has an underbody light system that can change to any color that lights up the entire ground. The front and
rear seats have aftermarket leather covers that match the color of the truck.
The outside of the truck was completely smoothed out with the entire rear being custom built to include frenched in
smooth rear lights and working tailgate. Painted a gorgeous silver with medium blue and silver flake, the paint
just gleams in the sunlight. The side handles were left on because again, this is a daily driver. A custom
sunroof was included up top that slides into the truck itself for a very clean look.
The bed of the truck is all custom with of course custom bed liner and AccuAir’s air management system and two
batteries and lights inside the bed for easy viewing. Topping the bed is a custom aluminum flat bed cover, painted
to match.
The wheels are 24” Massiv 910 Envious wrapped in 275/30r24 tires to which the entire truck rides like a dream.
Having owned many lowriders before I had two goals, comfort and usability.
All brakes were redone to high end disk brakes with EBC pads.
Yes you can tow with this truck not a problem.

GM plans to restart production in Mexico on May 20

Mon, May 18 2020

MEXICO CITY — General Motors is tentatively planning to restart operations at its auto assembly plant in the Mexican city of Silao on May 20, according to a message to workers seen by Reuters on Sunday, as the car industry prepares to exit the coronavirus lockdown. Separately, the president of GM's Mexican unit advised suppliers to prepare to resume operations. “We are now beginning a new phase given the Mexican governmentÂ’s official announcement earlier this week to consider the transportation manufacturing industry as essential for the countryÂ’s economy,” Francisco Garza, president ofGeneral Motors de Mexico, wrote in an email to suppliers dated on Friday that was viewed by Reuters. The reopening of the plant  in Silao would be a positive signal for the auto sector in North America, whose supply lines are highly interconnected between the United States, Mexico and Canada. The plant in the central state of Guanajuato has been idled for weeks due to the coronavirus outbreak. Workers had previously been told to plan to return to their jobs on May 18. A GM spokeswoman said the company could not confirm when it would restart operations at any of its facilities in Mexico because it is awaiting more guidance from the government. The message to the plant's workers came after the government on Friday clarified when the industry could begin easing restrictions imposed because of the health emergency. On Wednesday, the government said automakers could start going back into production from May 18. It then withdrew that advice and suggested the new start date would be June 1. Finally it indicated the sector, which forms the backbone of Mexican manufacturing, could begin operating as soon as next week if companies had the required safety measures in place. U.S. officials and its auto industry have pressed Mexico's government to get its factories open again because American operations depend heavily on parts from south of the border. However, some politicians are wary of opening too fast. Mexico registered its first case of coronavirus weeks after the United States and Canada and the toll of daily infections and deaths in the country reached new peaks over the past few days. The Silao production facility, which makes highly profitable pickup trucks for GM, is one of the biggest automotive plants in Guanajuato, a major Mexican carmaking state. Related Video:

Detroit Three's lucrative pickup war intensifies as Ram makes big gains

Thu, Jan 3 2019

DETROIT — The battle for profits from sales of large pickup trucks is intensifying among the Detroit Three automakers as sales of small cars in the United States shrivel. For decades Ford has had the single best-selling truck brand in its F-Series trucks. General Motors' Chevrolet brand was a solid No. 2, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram was a distant third. Now, that hierarchy may be in flux. Sales figures for December and the fourth quarter released on Thursday show Ram tied with GM's Chevy for the No. 2 spot, as sales of the redesigned Ram pickup surged, fueled in part by demand for an optional 12-inch (30.48 cm) dashboard screen. Chevy not long ago held second place to Ford by a wide margin. GM executives said on Thursday they are bullish on their new GMC and Chevy trucks for 2019.Related: How the Detroit Three's pickups compare on paper 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie review 2019 Chevy Silverado 2.7L four-cylinder review 2019 Ford F-150 2.7L EcoBoost review "There's no doubt this segment (pickup trucks) is one of the epicenters of the auto wars," said Sandor Piszar, director of marketing for Chevrolet at GM. "It's been that way forever, and we wouldn't have it any other way." On Wall Street, investors give electric car leader Tesla a higher valuation than any of the Detroit automakers. But in the nation's heartland, big pickups remain far more popular and profitable than any electric car — and most other consumer vehicles of any kind. Large pickups generate at least $17,000 a vehicle in pretax profit for GM, the company has indicated in disclosures to investors. By contrast, many Detroit Three sedans are so unprofitable, their manufacturers have decided not to build them anymore. 'Hotly contested' Sustaining sales and pricing in the large-pickup segment will be critical in a year when most forecasters expect overall U.S. car and light truck sales to fall. Ford's U.S. sales chief, Mark LaNeve, on Thursday called the F Series "the backbone of our franchise" during a conference call, and added the "segment will continue to be strong, but hotly contested" in 2019. Automakers are banking on pickup truck sales to stay strong even if U.S. interest rates continue to rise. Rising interest rates translate into higher monthly car payments and are expected to deter some buyers in 2019. GM has said 27 percent of Chevrolet and GMC trucks — which can haul trailers by day and substitute for a luxury sedan by night — sell for more than $55,000.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
