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.

Chevy Corvette Z06, Ford F-150 Raptor join Lego Speed Champs

Tue, Oct 20 2015

Get ready to park some performance machines on your desk: Lego's 2016 line of Speed Champions kits will add seven new vehicles for next year, according to an update to the database Brickset. These include some serious muscle like a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and Ford Mustang GT. There's also a listing called "Chevrolet Camaro Drag Race" and a very cool combo titled "Ford F-150 Raptor Ford/Model A Hot Rod". Fans of European performance don't need to be jealous, though. The database shows a kit called "Porsche 919 Hybrid and 917K Pit-Lane." Plus for fans of the Four Rings, the Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro and R8 LMS Ultra are also getting their own Lego models. Fourtitude appears to have some leaked shots, if you want to see what these kits will look like. Lego has partnered with Porsche, McLaren, and Ferrari and offers Speed Champions kits for vehicles like the Porsche 918 Spyder, McLaren P1, Ferrari 458 Italia GT2, and LaFerrari. The models in the series aren't as heavily detailed as the massive Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Bus sets, but they make up for that in value. The individual cars retail for a fairly affordable $14.99. The Formula One playset tops the current range at $99.99, but it comes with a truck, racecar and team figures.

Porsche and Buick earn top honors in J.D. Power Sales Satisfaction Index Study

Wed, Nov 8 2023

Customer satisfaction with car buying has been at a low point over the past few years, as price increases, inventory shortages, and COVID restrictions have complicated every part of the process. There are signs of improvement, however, as J.D. Power’s 2023 U.S. Sales Satisfaction Index Study showed that customer satisfaction has improved slightly from a year ago. J.D. Power rates satisfaction on a 1,000-point scale, finding that it improved seven points to 793 from last year. Improving inventory levels and a slow leveling off of prices have contributed to that improvement, and fewer people are paying above MSRP for new cars. Some auto brands performed better than others with sales satisfaction. Porsche ranked highest among premium brands, followed by Alfa Romeo. Buick took the top spot among mass-market brands, with GMC, Chevrolet, and Mitsubishi behind. J.D. Power also handed out segment-level awards: Premium Cars: Porsche Premium SUV: Porsche Mass-Market Car: Chevrolet Mass-Market SUV/Minivan: GMC Mass-Market Truck: GMC Despite the increase in sales satisfaction, thereÂ’s still room for improvement to reach pre-pandemic levels. J.D. Power noted gaps in salesperson knowledge as an area of improvement. Buyers rated salespeople much better during a gas vehicle purchase than with EVs, citing their expertise as a challenge. Pricing remains a challenge despite an improvement since 2022, and satisfaction is still below pre-pandemic levels. Mass-market buyers reported a slight bump in satisfaction, while premium buyers felt that pricing was less fair than a year before. ItÂ’s an interesting contrast, showing that dealer pricing tactics can significantly impact satisfaction with the sales process. Fewer people may be paying more than MSRP, but several premium models still list with significant markups. Even more interesting is PorscheÂ’s top spot on the satisfaction list, as its cars often sell with huge upcharges, and itÂ’s exceedingly tricky even to get a build allocation for some models.

Recharge Wrap-up: Panasonic, Tesla on Gigafactory deal?

Bentley has been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard for reductions of carbon, water use and waste production in manufacturing. The Carbon Trust is an organization that helps groups such as businesses and governments reduce carbon emissions, use of energy and resources, and waste output. From 2011 to 2013, Bentley reduced CO2 emissions by 16 percent per car manufactured, curtailed water use by 35.7 percent, and saw significant waste reductions. Darran Messem of Carbon trust says, "Bentley is clearly passionate about continuing to improve its environmental performance, which is reflected by the fact the company has consistently invested in new technology." Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet is giving 12 Volts to MBAs Across America. The organization will use the range-extended electric cars in its efforts to help MBA students learn from and work with small business owners. As part of the MBAs Across America program's first year, four students drove 8,000 miles to provide entrepreneurs with free business counseling. The program has expanded, and this year, teams of MBAs will use the Volts to travel to 25 cities to offer their services. Learn more about the partnership between Chevrolet and MBAs Across America in the press release below. A professor from the University of Michigan has found fuel cycle analysis to be too flawed to be relied upon for measuring CO2 impacts of transportation fuels. Professor John DeCicco of the university's Energy Institute feels that the flaws in calculating the carbon footprint of liquid fuel production and combustion make such lifecycle analysis impractical. He suggests, instead, to focus to carbon capture. Since capturing CO2 directly from a vehicle is probably never going to happen, DiCicco believes the solution is to capture carbon from the atmosphere in sectors outside of transportation. Says DiCicco, "Research should be ramped up on options for increasing the rate at which CO2 is removed from the atmosphere and on programs to manage and utilize carbon fixed in the biosphere, which offers the best CO2 removal mechanism now at hand. Such strategies can complement measures that control the demand for liquid fuels by reducing travel activity, improving vehicle efficiency and shifting to non-carbon fuels."
