Very nice GMC Jimmy Sierra Grande 4x4.  I purchased this Jimmy from the second owner for the purpose of giving to my daugther who thought she wanted a big truck.  Spent tons of money getting everything to work.  The truck is from arid Western Washington and is as rust free as these trucks get.  Has tiny amount of rust in the rocker panels.  Underneath and body panels are solid. 

This is a true, no reserve auction.  Not a BS auction from many dealers on eBay who have fake bidders.  This vehicle will sell.  I will let the marketplace determine what it should go for.

Has a factory, original 350 motor (not the weaker 305 that many CA cars have.)  Here is a list of the work that was recently done to this K5 Jimmy:
  • All new interior, which includes carpet, headliner, dash, and panels.  The seats are in amazing original condition.
  • New A/C compressor (blows cold).
  • Brand new dual exhaust.
  • New plugs and wires with recent tune up.
  • $1600 worth of BRAND NEW wheels and tires.  (Tires have 10 miles on them.)
  • Rear Diff and transfer case service.
  • New manual hub lockers.
  • New Alpine CD w/Kicker speakers and front jack for iPhone
Other hightlights:
  • All gauges work.
  • Interior dome lights work.
  • Original rust-free body panels
  • Heater blows hot; updated AC blows cold.
  • Tons of low-end torque for off roading.
  • Turn signals and tail lights work.
  • Trailer tow package.
  • All original factory glass.  Rear tail gate glass rolls up and down smoothly.
  • Removable fiberclass top.
  • Factory tire jack.  (Usually missing)
Minor issues:
  • Motor has a lifter noise which quiets down after warming up.  Doesn't affect performance.  Just drove to Utah and SoCal and back to Vegas.
  • Leaks oil around the pan as many of these trucks do
  • There is a crack on the rear tail gate. Tail gate raises and lowers fine.  
  • Has original paint that is beginning to fade on the front fenders.
  • Some of the aluminum body molding have dents and dings.
Overall, this is a great truck for the weekend warrior, a teenager's first truck or to take camping.  I bought it for my teenager daughter, dumped a bunch of money into it only to learn it's just too big for her.   Lots of money spent making it safe and reliable.

I have bought and sold over 20 cars on ebay and as you will see from my feedback, I have 100% feedback since 1999. I am happy to answer questions or arrange inspections. Vehicle is located in Las Vegas area.  Fly in and drive home.  Call or text with questions.  949-274-5885.

GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.

GM CEO to meet with U.S. lawmakers over job cuts

Fri, Nov 30 2018

WASHINGTON — General Motors Co Chief Executive Mary Barra plans to visit Capitol Hill next week to discuss the company's plans to halt production at five plants in North America next year and cut up to 15,000 jobs, two congressional aides said on Friday. GM has come under harsh criticism from lawmakers from both major political parties, and from President Donald Trump, since Monday when it announced the biggest restructuring for the U.S. No. 1 carmaker since its bankruptcy a decade ago. Barra is expected to meet with lawmakers from Michigan and Ohio, where GM plans to shutter three plants, as well as senior leaders in Congress. GM did not immediately comment. Barra has been calling lawmakers this week to explain the decision to end production. Trump has threatened to revoke subsidies for GM. The Detroit automaker plans to halt production next year at three assembly plants: the Lordstown small-car factory near Youngstown, Ohio; the Detroit-Hamtramck complex in Detroit; and the Oshawa, Ontario, assembly complex near Toronto. It will also stop building several models now assembled at those plants, including the Chevrolet Cruze, the Chevrolet Volt hybrid, the Cadillac CT6 and the Buick LaCrosse. Additionally, GM plans to shutter the Warren transmission plant outside Detroit and a plant that makes electric motors and drivetrains outside Baltimore, Maryland. The Cruze compact car will be discontinued in the U.S. market in 2019, although GM may continue building it in Mexico for other markets, Barra said. Reporting by David Shepardson. Related Video:

GMC Hummer EV First Drive Review | True supertruck, for better and for worse

Thu, Apr 7 2022

Right from the start, the 2022 GMC Hummer EV has been advertised with superlatives, mostly in reference to its specifications. GMC has even called it a "supertruck" in its own materials. And while we've received a taste of the truck before, only now have we finally got our hands on the production-spec model, and had the opportunity to drive it both off-road and on the street. What we've found is that the Hummer EV is undoubtedly a supertruck, much the same way that a Ferrari or a Lamborghini is a supercar. It totally delivers on its incredible capabilities, but there are compromises. And they're worth being aware of before plunking down the more than $100,000 a first-year Hummer will run you. That six-figure truck is the version we tested, the Edition 1, which actually rings in at $112,595. It's the only version in production for now, with lower trims coming in the next couple years. It's sold out, but many of the features will be available on the next highest trim level, the EV 3X. Among those features are the three motors, torque vectoring, “Watts To Freedom” launch mode, four-wheel steering, removable glass roof panels, 35-inch tires, Super Cruise, power rear window and MultiPro tailgate. In other words, although you can literally no longer order an Edition 1, you can still order a Hummer EV with nearly the same specification. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. We'll start where most owners probably will: mashing the throttle. No one can resist seeing what 1,000 horsepower and 1,200 pound-feet of torque will feel like. It's even a tad more torque in Watts To Freedom mode, which preemptively runs the cooling system to enable the additional twist. That mode allows the Hummer to hit 60 mph in 3 seconds, and the drama is dialed up with visual, audible and haptic cues. But even without engaging launch mode, the Hummer EV impresses and delights with its acceleration. In addition to pinning you to the seat, the entire truck squats in an exaggerated fashion. It's absurd, especially considering the truck's curb weight that surpasses a truly astounding 9,000 pounds. ThatÂ’s several hundred pounds more than the heaviest GMC Sierra HD 3500 diesel dually. Of course, that weight, as well as the nature of electric motors, means the party starts to calm down as the speed increases. The weight is noticeable in other areas, too.
