Up for sale is my 2006 GMC Sierra Denali that listed for $47,570.00 when I purchased it new. I paid close to $43K plus tax. I am the original owner and have the title on hand. I have used Mobil One synthetic oil and super gas in the truck since new. *****THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION***** I will do my best to list the good and bad of the truck and encourage you to call me with specific questions @ 862-881-7525 Steve.The truck also can be seen in person prior to bidding......currently driving the truck about 200 miles a day between northern NJ and NYC.
THE GOOD: The Motor runs great uses no oil between changes and has no leaks. The transmission shifts perfect / has no leaks and has setting for towing. The tires are not new but in great condition. Rear brake pads, emergency brake pads, calipers, and rotors changed in 4/13......brake fluid system flushed and fluid changed at that time as well. The front pads were at around 50/60 % in April 2013 and will need new pads at some point but as of now just fine. The original battery was replaced with Die Hard gold. The air conditioning and heat work perfectly. Mostly highway miles. No check engine or warning lights on. Recent oil change & wiper blades. Very little rust any where. Can be driven home.....bring plates. The interior is in pretty good shape for the mileage....I kept it clean and it has no funny smells. DVD played new never used. OnStar/XM capable. 20 inch chrome rims (some rust and pitting) see pics.
The Bad: White spray paint overspray (from july 4th mess up) all over truck.....they are hard to see in the pictures! Needs compound and wax badly! There are scratches and dents all over every panel of this truck. look at the pictures close.........may need to be painted over completely. I have maintained this truck mechanically but didn't really keep up on the washing and waxing as well as I should have. The drivers fender and the hood are dented from a deer....air bag did not deploy deer hit side as shown in pics. Passenger side doors damaged from hitting fire hydrant while in city moving a friend (also low impact no air bags deployed). Windshield has several small chips that don't obstruct view. Carpet needs a good shampooing. DASH STEREO/CD PLAYER (BOSE) DOES NOT WORK ......It goes on but no sound. I listen to the rear radio with a head set on. Passenger side mirror is cracked. Rear driver side door doesn't lock. Rear passenger side door needs a little extra pull strength when opening. Passenger front door leaks from top a little bit when in car wash. Starter makes some noise once in a while....have new one in a box.

Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon get updated tachometers due to graphical error
Sun, Feb 8 2015After James Bearing bought a Chevrolet Colorado, he noticed a discrepancy between the truck's spec sheet and the truck's tachometer: Chevrolet said 3.6-liter V6 in the little pickup produces 305 horsepower at 6,800 rpm, but the the tachometer indicates a redline at 6,500 rpm. So either he wasn't making as much power as he was promised, or the tachometer display was incorrect. Bearing said he asked Chevy about it but got no response. Until now. A General Motors spokesman said the rev limiter is indeed set for 6,800 rpm, but the tach graphics "are slightly off" in the Colorado and the GMC Canyon, and submitted an SAE horsepower certification to back him up. If you're wondering how such a thing got past quality control... well, let's just say you're not alone. GM is going to fix "the graphics on future trucks," which makes it sound like Bearing will just have to learn to live with the indicated redline he's got. He could always pretend he's driving a sleeper, with four more ponies waiting to be unlocked in the danger zone for those who dare.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
