         86 Suburban 3/4 ton four wheel drive with swing out "barn" rear doors. Good condition all around. Very well maintained. Cruise, A/C (new w/conversion to R134a), auto locking hubs all working. Shifts strong and smooth. New batteries. The only problem I know of on this truck is the passenger front door lock has to be locked/unlocked manually or with the key. The others all work fine off of electric lock switch. This truck was originally ordered with loads of options, including high capacity fuel tank. I have gotten as high as 20 mpg highway, which is as good as my friends 4x4 Tacoma V-6, though I have not towed with this truck in all the years that I have owned it, the previous owners did. Equipped with trailer brake unit and receiver hitch (If I can find the ball that came with it I will include it). Nice sound system (AM/FM CD) Split fold-down middle seat and removable back seat for when you want to haul sheets of plywood etc. I helped a friend move a while back and when he opened the back doors (seats were in cargo mode) he said "What is this, the Queen Mary?!" Newer springs and shocks (Rancho) in front, slight lift. REAR A/C did not work when I purchased truck so I had it completely removed and new interior panels/headliner installed so nothing to show it was there except "Rear AC" switch on bottom of dash, which I kept in case I needed to add an accessory later. The front AC is enough to keep the truck cool. Tires still have some life in them. Vehicle has been my daily driver, (Front seats are comfortable even on longer trips), but with my back being bad, combined with a knee surgery, it is too much for me to be getting in and out of , so must sell and get something smaller. I know I am going to miss how safe this truck makes a person feel while driving it. It is also quite a conversation starter...everywhere I go it seems someone is saying "Nice truck!, is that the original paint?" or "What year is your Suburban...where did you find one with a diesel?"  I have only seen or heard of 4 other Suburbans in this original configuration. 4x4 3/4 ton barn door diesel. I will be happy to answer questions so feel free to ask. She starts great, steers and stops like a champ, well maintained, has a great heater with new fan motor and again, everything works to my knowledge, except as mentioned above. No rust issues. Interior panels and carpet are very nice, floor mats front to back are included, including cargo area. Seats are great too. No tears. Please See Photos. This Vehicle is for sale locally so it is subject to prior sale. $500 deposit is due within 24 hrs of accepted offer. Balance will be due within 7 days. Buyer responsible for any shipping/pick up arrangements.
Thanks for looking!

GM opens official investigation into C8 Corvette transmission leaks

Mon, Nov 1 2021

In March 2020, a month after Chevrolet began customer deliveries of the 2020 C8 Corvette, a GM dealer technician created a Reddit thread about a leaking gearbox in a Corvette with 32 miles. That car hadn't even been sold yet. Since then, as a search of "C8 Corvette transmission leak" shows, it's been tales of woe for some owners. Something in the Tremec TR-9080 transaxle in the back of the mid-engined Corvette doesn't work as it should, the fault able to cause codes that the transmission needs service, or that the driver needs to shift to park. In some cases, the battery would die because of follow-on issues after the initial transmission code, that code preventing the car from powering down. As Autoevolution reports, GM filed paperwork with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in August to look into what's going on. Between forum threads and GM's investigation document, there are several issues mentioned. The most common appears to be the dual-clutch transmission leaking fluid due to gasket failures like the one suffered by one owner at 858 miles, and another for an owner currently enduring a second leaking transmission. The Midengined Corvette Forum reported that Chevy engineers redesigned the TR-9080 pan, fitting Corvettes with the new unit at some point in the 2021 model year. The original pan was stamped steel unit affixed to the engine with two studs and 13 bolts, plus "reinforcement plates." The updated pan is said to be a cast aluminum unit affixed with two studs and 17 bolts, omits the reinforcement plates, and gets a new machined new groove around its edge to seat the gasket seal. The GM paperwork now at the NHTSA mentions a P1789 code, and says one reason for it could be "debris on the park position sensor magnet causing an incorrect position reading to the TCM." This might be caused by another issue mentioned in forums, which is clogged transmission filters. GM gives instructions for returning transmission filters to the company, and a poster on one forum said the Corvette tech at the dealer where he bought his Corvette told him the automaker "requires every used transmission filter to be returned to GM."  Whatever's going on, the problems haven't stopped, and they go beyond the P1789 code. Over the weekend, a 2022 Corvette owner posted on Corvette Forums that he got a check engine light on his car after just 850 miles.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.

Trademark application points to evolution of new Hummer EV logo

Mon, Aug 17 2020

A trademark application has revealed yet another evolution of the logo expected to adorn GMC's new Hummer EV pickup truck, bringing back the big "H" badge utilized on the H2 and H3 model lines of the expanded SUV lineup's heyday.  The image included with the filing depicts a logo that should be familiar to Hummer fans (or really any American who left their house between 2003 and 2010), with "EV" supplanting the old numerical model indicator. The "Hummer" and "EV" typeface appears to be a direct lift from a filing that surfaced back in April.  This should provide some comfort to folks who are fans of the idea of a future-proofed, all-electric pickup, but want something that embodies the charisma and road presence of the models sold in Hummer's now-deceased, not-so-environmentally-spectacular incarnation. While we don't yet know really any details of the new all-electric SUV, we do know it will be sold via GMC dealers, meaning the revived nameplate will not bring the rest of the Hummer brand along with it.  We haven't really seen much of the new truck, save for teasers and hints here and there. Even the "reveal" back in June only gave us a vague, big-picture look at the truck's silhouette, and various companion images and videos have hinted at features such as a removable roof assembly.  The truck’s general shape is off-road oriented with squared-off, sharp lines tracing the entire silhouette. Its big, knobby tires and blocky wheels are clear indicators of what GM was aiming for with this electric pickup. As for the SUV, comparisons to the Ford Bronco four-door will be inevitable. If our eyes are picking up the scale of this photo correctly, though, the Hummer SUV appears to be a slightly larger vehicle than the four-door Bronco is. Although, the wheelbase for the SUV is shorter than that of the Hummer truck. ThatÂ’ll help it off-road. Those small bumpers and short overhangs along with the bumper cutouts should be hugely beneficial to approach and departure angles, as well. GMCÂ’s shots of the Hummer in the studio are equally as revealing. We can see what looks to be an intense front skid plate and two big tow hooks. In addition to the off-road gear, GMC has allowed a look at the frunk. The front “grille” is one piece with the hood of the truck, so the whole assembly pulls up. That makes for what appears to be a very easy-to-load front trunk compared to other EVs that force you to lift items up and over the front of the car.
