History

This pickup has had one driver since new, It was used by my brother in-law, a project manager for a construction outfit, to commute between construction sites in the New England area. Typically this commuting would be driving empty, or hauling some construction tools in the back like air compressors or nail guns. Originally it was leased to the Construction company but when the lease was up it was purchased by my brother in-law and he continued to use it daily. The reason for sale is moving up to a crew cab pickup.

Condition

Over all condition is excellent, The gray/black Cloth interior is clean and smoke free as it has never been smoked in. It has been used to occasionally haul a couple of yellow lab dogs, and their hair sticks to absolutely everything as you can see in some of the pictures, but this hair does vacuum up fine. The truck does not smell like dog inside, it smells fine. All of the Glass is good with no cracks.The interior panels, floor, and dash are all as they should be. The Exterior is also in excellent condition, the white paint shines just like it should. There may be some small dings or imperfections in the body if you look really closely, but nothing you wouldn't expect for truck of this age.

Tires are about half tread, plenty of life remaining in them for now.

Mechanically the truck is sound. The Engine/transmission/rear end/brakes/4x4 all function as they should without any strange noises or anything like that.

Overall its a well cared for pickup, with regular oil changes and routine maintenance.

Features

4x4, automatic, V8 engine. It has the WT package which is basically the bare bones options package, rubber floors, cloth seats, but it does have A/C, cruise control, and power windows and locks. The Cruise control as well as the power windows and locks were added by the dealership, they are not factory options, but they were added properly and function as they should. It does have a trailer hitch and the associated wiring, and has towed a small trailer twice that we can think of. Also comes with a decent aluminum toolbox as shown in the pictures.

Inspection

The pickup is available for inspection near West Kingston Rhode Island, please use the contact seller link to arrange a time to inspect and take it for a drive. It would be best to do this during the evening or weekend.

Shipping and Payment

There is a $250 deposit to be made via paypal within 48 hours. We would prefer if the buyer were to pick the truck up in person and pay the balance with cash or certified check/money order from a bank we can verify, but if you need to have the truck shipped/delivered to you, we will do what we can to help on this end. Shipping/Delivery is of course ultimately the buyers responsibility, and payment is due before the truck leaves. I'll accept personal check as well, but I need at least 11 days after receiving a personal check before the vehicle leaves. The truck has a Clear Rhode Island title. Also the pickup should be good to drive pretty much anywhere if you choose to fly in and drive it home. The nearest airport is Providence (PVD), its about a half hour away.

What if you don't like it when you get here?

Well, hopefully that doesn't happen, and my feedback ratings should be assurance that the listing is accurate and descriptive of the pickup. But If you for some reason choose not to buy the pickup, we keep the $250 deposit to cover the cost of this listing etc, that is all.

How Chevy used popular Instagram user to promote 2016 Volt

Thu, Feb 26 2015

A picture is worth a thousand words. When it comes to Chevrolet and its Volt extended-range plug-in, the automaker is hoping pictures can be turned into a few more buyers. The company extended a little love to one popular social-media practitioner to see if the trick works. Former biochemical engineer Kevin Lu started his Instagram account a couple of years ago during a road trip, and the quality of his shots has attracted about 181,000 followers. With that popularity in mind, Chevy brought Lu up to Detroit to check out the unveiling of the next-generation Volt at the Detroit Auto Show last month. Lu also got to see the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly factory where the Volt is built, Automotive News reports. As for the next-gen Volt, Chevy says a more efficient powertrain and lighter battery help give the car an all-electric range of up to 50 miles and a total driving distance of more than 400 miles. Chevy also touts the model's streamlined grille and (tight) seating for three in the rear. General Motors hopes a combination of those improvements and exposure from sources such as Lu and his Instagram account (and some sleepy ads, apparently) revitalize sales of the model. Last year, Volt sales fell 19 percent to 18,805 units.

2021 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon fuel economy and towing capacities go official

Wed, May 6 2020

Most of the puzzle pieces have fallen into place with GM’s new full-size SUVs, but today we have fuel economy and towing to add to the picture. Numbers for the standard 5.3-liter V8 and upgrade 6.2-liter V8 are out, but GM has held back on the 3.0-liter turbodiesel inline-six for the time being. Those numbers are most likely not ready yet. Minor improvements and decreases are seen throughout the Tahoe/Suburban and Yukon/Yukon XL lineup. Because there are so many variants, weÂ’re going to just lay them out below for you. 5.3-liter V8 2021 Tahoe/Yukon 2WD: 16/20/18 2021 Tahoe/Yukon 4WD: 16/20/18 2021 Suburban/Yukon XL 2WD: 16/20/18 2021 Suburban/Yukon XL 4WD: 15/19/17 6.2-liter V8 2021 Tahoe/Yukon 2WD: 15/20/17 2021 Tahoe/Yukon 4WD: 14/19/16 2021 Suburban/Yukon XL 2WD: 15/20/17 2021 Suburban/Yukon XL 4WD: 14/19/16 As you can see, there isnÂ’t a whole lot of difference between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive options. You can eke out an extra mpg here and there, but itÂ’s a penalty weÂ’d be happy to live with to have four-wheel traction. The biggest loser in all of this is highway mpg. Chevy has made the trucks bigger and added weight with the independent rear suspension, causing a decrease in fuel economy. For example, a 2020 Tahoe with the 6.2-liter V8 and four-wheel drive is rated at 14/22/17. The 2021 truck drops 3 mpg on the highway and 1 mpg in the combined rating. There are improvements to be found, though. A 2020 Suburban with the 5.3-liter V8 and four-wheel drive is rated 14/21/16. Fuel economy in the city goes up 1 mpg, but you lose 2 mpg on the highway and 1 mpg in the combined rating. ThereÂ’s a bit of give and take here, but at least a slight increase in city mpg has accompanied the greater loss in highway fuel economy. 2021-chevy-tahoe-chicago-01 View 12 Photos As for towing, the Tahoe/Yukon with the 5.3-liter V8 and two-wheel drive has a new 7,900-pound capacity, and the four-wheel drive model is rated at 7,700 pounds. Respectively, those are the best figures youÂ’ll get with the standard towing capacity. Opt for the maximum towing package, and the Tahoe/Yukon capacities go up to 8,400 pounds (two-wheel drive) and 8,200 pounds (four-wheel drive). The numbers all take slight cuts when you go for the 6.2-liter V8. Both the Suburban and Yukon XL offer similar or identical towing figures as their shorter counterparts do.

This 450-hp electric Lotus Evora is powered by Tesla and Chevrolet

Tue, May 9 2017

When someone mentions an electric Lotus, the first thing that comes to mind is the Tesla Roadster, the California-based automaker's first vehicle. That car started life as an Elise before being heavily massaged and adapted by Tesla's engineers. In a similar spirit, the people at Onpoint Dyno are close to finishing Blue Lightning, a track-ready all-electric Lotus Evora. Blue Lightning uses a Tesla drive unit and a Chevrolet Volt battery pack, both mounted in the middle in place of the Evora's 3.5-liter Toyota V6. It's putting down about 450 horsepower at the wheels. The car was built for time attack sessions, so power is fed through custom forged wheels and super sticky Pirelli PZero Trofeo R tires, the same ones found on the last Chevrolet Camaro Z/28. There is a custom digital instrument cluster in place of the Lotus gauges. There's also a regen paddle on the left side of the steering wheel. With a full charge, Blue Lighting should go about 120 miles. While the car runs under its own power, it's only about 90 percent complete. It has no power steering, no firewall in between the seats and the motor and battery pack, no A/C, and a large hole where the shift lever used to be. Other final touches include fine-tuning the brakes and suspension. There is also a custom rear bumper coming that should make it look more like the new Lotus Evora 400. Onpoint Dyno expects the car to hit the track in the next month or so. Related Video:
