 Up for auction is my 2004 (actually 2004.5) GMC Sierra SLT 3500 Duramax Dually 4 door crew cab, in immaculate Fine Silver Birch Metallic paint. Overall it is in exceptional condition. I am the 2nd owner. Here in CT, this truck does not need any emissions testing EVER due to GVWR. This was a CT truck for it's entire life, used to tow a camper around the country and move firewood. It was never a "work" truck. It is currently daily driven and gets consistently 15 mpg around town, a bit more on the highway. With a programmer on economy/tow mode, it would get more like 17 (I have never had a programmer on this truck). Clean title, and no known accidents. I am only selling because it is too much truck for my needs. I am looking to downsize to a more fuel efficient daily car and older pickup for the dirty work.

Injector balance rates checked out good about 6K miles ago. Balance rates were as follows:

Neutral (+/- 4 is the limit)

1: 1.2
2: -.2
3: -.9
4: 1.2
5: -3.4
6: -1.8
7: 2.8
8: 2.0

Drive (+/- 6 is the limit)

1: 1.4
2: -.3
3: -1.8
4: 1.2
5: -2.8
6: -.9
7: 3.1
8: .2

It starts perfectly on even the coldest morning without the assistance of the block heater (started flawlessly when it was down to -9 degrees last month, first thing in the morning without the plug)

Basic Rundown:

- LLY 6.6L V8 Duramax Diesel
- around 201,000 miles and going up, this truck is currently daily driven (picture shows mileage a few weeks ago when I took them at slightly lower mileage)

- Push button 4x4 transfer case (2H/4H/4L)
- SLT Trim package (highest model)
- Gray Leather
- Dual Power and heated seats
- Power windows and locks

- On Star
- Cruise Control
- Full Driver's information center on dash
- Digital Dual HVAC controls, great Heat and A/C
- Rear stereo controls

Recent Work:

- Front impact sensor replaced 100 miles ago (no airbag issues, sensor just quit which is common)
- Fuel filter changed 2K miles ago
- Engine oil and filter change with Rotella T6 fully synthetic 2K miles ago
- 6 new tires mounted and balanced 6K miles ago
- Front end alignment 6K miles ago - nothing noted as needing replacement in the front end and it aligned just fine
- A couple new tie rods 6K miles ago
- Completely rebuilt gauge cluster with all new servo motors and lighting 8K miles ago
- Transmission drained and filled with Transynd fully synthetic ATF and spin on filter replaced 8K miles ago - fluid dark, but I did not do a complete flush, just a drain.
- Transfer Case drained and filled with Transynd fully syntheitc ATF 8K miles ago
- Rear Diff Drained and filled with Amsoil extreme duty fully synthetic gear oil 8K miles ago
- Both front hubs replaced 15K miles ago
- Alternator replaced 15K miles ago
- Serpentine belt tensioner and accessory belt replaced 15K miles ago
- Water pump replaced 15K miles ago
- Coolant flushed 15K miles ago
- 2 new batteries roughly 1.5 years ago

Extras:

- Prodigy progressive brake controller
- 5th wheel rails in bed (I have never used them)
- Factory rear trailer hitch receiver
- AEM Brute force intake
- front bug deflector (currently not installed)
- Block heater
- Tubular chrome side steps

Issues/Work needed:


- Driver's seat has the typical edge rip and non-functional heater elements. Rear seat bottom middle has a rip smaller than a penny
- Cracks in the Dually bed sides (common and nearly unavoidable - noted in pictures)
- Interior of the bed is dinged/dented from moving firewood, etc - can get some pics, but the bed is full of snow right now
- Slight surge at idle. Possible cause is the Fuel Pressure Regulator on its way out, and does not affect driveability and is only noticeable at idle - a brand new FPR is included but not yet installed - it cost roughly $300
- Rockers are JUST starting to bubble on each side in small locations, noted in the pictures. Otherwise the underside and frame are very clean with only minor scale. Factory paint is still present on the frame, with the exception of the rear kickup and spare tire carrier area. You can blame the lovely CT road treatments for the minor stuff starting...
- Front diff was going to be drained and filled with amsoil when I changed the oil next. Included is the necessary amsoil to drain and fill the front diff.
- Minor paint blemishes here and there typical of a 10 year old vehicle. Nothing too significant, as the pics show
- I would give the trans a full flush at the next service. It has never given me issues, but I'd like to replace ALL of the fluid, not just a drain and fill as I did which only gets 50% of the old fluid out

You will not be disappointed by this truck. It is extremely reliable and has been well maintained. It is ready to be daily driven. I currently have a loan out on this truck, so the title will be retrieved when payment is received in full (paypal, cash or bank check only - payment must clear at the credit union before I can get the title) Non-refundable $500 deposit due w/in 48 hours of auction ending - no exceptions. I will relist immediately if this is not met. Payment must be received in full within 7 days of auction end, at which point the vehicle must be picked up within 14 days of auction end.

KBB Value in "Very Good" condition is $16,434
NADA Value "Clean Retail" is $19,850


Please email me with any questions or to set up a time to view. Located in Canton, CT 06019

This vehicle is being sold in as-is condition. It is encouraged that you set up a time to view in person before the bidding ends, to inspect for yourself. There is no warantee expressed or implied. This is a 10+ year old truck so I may have missed some normal wear and tear in its condition. I believe that I have fairly represented this truck to the best of my ability and knowledge.

2015 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra heavy duty trucks unveiled

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Proving just how important trucks are in the Lone Star State, General Motors has chosen the State Fair of Texas to reveal its new heavy-duty trucks from Chevrolet and GMC. Looking to take some of the wind out of the sails of the 2014 Ram HD and 2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty, the 2015 Chevy Silverado HD and 2015 GMC Sierra HD will have plenty to brag about when they go on sale in the first quarter of next year.
The bragging starts right up front with two available engines. The standard engine is a Vortec 6.0-liter V8 that produces 360 horsepower in the 2500HD and 322 hp in the 3500HD to go along with 380 pound-feet of torque in all applications. The true benefit of this powerplant is that buyers can opt for it to run on straight gasoline, E85 FlexFuel or even compressed natural gas (CNG). For maximum towing and even more flexibility, the 6.6-liter Duramax turbodiesel B20-capable V8 is the way to go, with its carryover 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque. Though the max towing abilities of 23,200 pounds (with a fifth-wheel trailer) are less than the 30,000-pound rating of the new Ram, the GM HD trucks offer better conventional trailer towing (19,600 pounds) and payload (7,374 pounds) than rival heavy-duty trucks...for now. The Duramax is paired with a six-speed Allison automatic transmission, while the gas engine gets GM's six-speed Hydra-Matic - no manual transmissions are offered.
Including the engines, GM continues to offer a broad range of configurations (more than 150, to be exact) including three cabs, two cargo bed lengths, numerous trim levels and, of course, the choice of single- or dual-rear wheels on the 3500. The HD trucks have faces that are similar to their half-ton counterparts, with the exception of a larger grille and bigger for improved air flow, and like the current HD offerings, the new Silverado HD and Sierra HD DRW models feature a one-piece bed design incorporating the fender extensions.

GM expanding Lansing Lambda CUV plant

Thu, 30 Oct 2014

Considering that crossovers are a rapidly growing portion of the US auto market, it's not surprising to hear that General Motors is preparing to build even more of them. The company is investing $63 million to expand its Lansing Delta Township Assembly plant that builds Lambda platform CUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave.
According to GM, the expansion will add roughly 263,000 extra square feet of space to the plant. Of that, 181,000 square feet will be for an updated body shop with cutting-edge robots. There will also be 54,000 square feet of additional room in the paint shop and 28,000 square feet of more area for general assembly.
GM isn't saying as much, but there is the possibility that this extra space could allow for additional models produced at the factory. Cadillac reportedly dropped plans to build a three-row SUV on the Lambda platform earlier this year, however, dealers for the luxury brand were recently pitched the possibility of adding large and small CUVs, an ATS convertible or a sedan below the ATS.

2019 GMC Sierra interior looks just like the Silverado's

Thu, Feb 22 2018

The GMC Sierra has pretty much always been a Chevy Silverado in disguise. There was maybe some fancier trim plus the availability of the ritzier Denali trim, but the differences mostly amounted to different makeup on identical twins. As we can see from the spy photos above, the yet-to-be-shown 2019 GMC Sierra will actually have a more distinctive exterior, but the interior will continue the me-too tradition. Immediately apparent is the fact that the whole dashboard is carryover. It's the same chunky, plasticky place to be that, while likely highly functional, did little to impress when unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show. Really, only the volume, tuning and climate control knobs look different from those in the Silverado. They appear to have a different ridged pattern on the edges, and are possibly a shinier, glossier finish. The steering wheel also looks different, with a chunkier center and more svelte spokes. The Sierra exterior would seem to be better differentiated. The headlights are very different in that they wrap around the fenders more so than on the Chevy. The grille looks more vertical and aggressive than the Silverado's. The wheel arches also differ in that the forward corners are rounded and the rears are more squared off. The GMC Sierra will be revealed March 1 in Detroit. As per usual, it will probably share all of its powertrain bits with the Silverado. That means at least 5.3- and 6.2-liter gasoline V8s and the new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six diesel engine. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
