A well used truck which we have used to tow our 5th wheel around on our holiday in the US for the last 5 months.
Alas our VISA's are about to run and it is time to go home and the truck MUST be sold. 
The truck has had it's injectors replaced sometime before I got it. I have fitted a rebuilt injector pump shortly after buying this truck 5 months ago. As I have fitted this myself, I do not have receipts for this work. The engine has a little shake at idle but pulls strong and has no problems pulling our 15000 pound 5th wheeler. The engine doesn't smoke, doesn't use oil or water and keeps cool even pulling our 5th wheel up long hills. 
In the last 5 weeks I have had to replace the transfer case (replaced with a GM rebuilt unit) and fitted a new standard clutch (complete clutch kit including flywheel reface). I have receipts for this work totaling around $3500.00  Receipts will be supplied for this work done. 
I have also had a new Reese 16K 5th wheel hitch installed shortly after purchasing this truck. 
There are minor cosmetic scratches in the body which have been painted white and are hard to spot from a couple of feet away. There is some wear and tear in the interior as could be expected of a truck of this age and mileage but no rips in the seat. Some of the plastic trim around the tray edge and on the back bumper is loose in places. 
The fuel gauge doesn't always work (I use the trip meter to estimate the fuel left in the tank), one of the wheel studs on the front is broken. A tie rod end / ball joint will need to be replaced soon in the steering linkage. Discs could do with resurfacing. There are two little areas of rust under the back doors, worst one is shown in the pictures. 
The parking brake doesn't work. However, this is subject to a factory recall. Work was started on this but the GM dealership did not receive the required parts in time to finish the job. As we are travelling and needed to move on, I had to pull the truck out of the dealership before they could complete the work. I can supply the contact names and phone numbers for the dealership which started the work. But taking this truck into any GM dealership and having them run the VIN number should show that the recall is still outstanding and the work should be done free of charge.
So truck needs a little work (and it is all minor really) but is priced accordingly. 
As this truck must be sold, all offers will be considered.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.

Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
