2003 Chevy Astro van for sale. It is currently decked out as an ice cream truck, but it can easily go back to the conversion van it started out as a few months ago, as I kept all seats and parts and didn't strip the interior. See, I had a hunch my business idea might fail here in my small town! So I figured at some point I may have to throw in the towel and sell this badboy to feed my family. Sadly, I was correct in my foresight. But hey! Maybe you live in a much better town for peddling goodies than I do! Maybe you're having a heck of a time finding a starter truck like I was! Well, I've done the work for ya! Van has a glass top freezer and a 2000w inverter with extra battery. Nothing fancy inside, just functional. You're even welcome to whatever product is left in said freezer, but keep in mind I'm gonna keep selling what I can until the van sells. So if you buy it now, you get a fully stocked ice cream truck. In a week or two... not so much. I am also more than happy to share what I've learned about the business. Such as, don't attempt this in a town with a population of under 900. Sure, we have thousands of cows, but apparently they don't dig ice cream. Moving on....  Mechanically, the van is in great shape. It was neglected when I bought it, but I worked on it ALOT before I could begin tooling around playing loud childhood tunes. Everything I am about to list was done in April of this year...

New brakes front and rear
New rotors in front
Flushed radiator
Full tune-up, including new cap and rotor (dear god, what a PAIN on a van!!!! be very, very happy that I took care of this for you!!)
New catalytic converter (old one was stolen, can ya believe some people??)
New battery
New alternator
New fuel filter

Oh, and the paintjob is new too... done the first week of May.

Tires are very good, but not new. Any questions about it mechanically, just ask. I may have forgotten to list something...

What it currently needs:

it's about ready for an oil change, and the service engine light just came on. I am going to put the scanner on and check it out, but it's nothing serious, as the van is still running perfectly fine. The AC is fully charged and works, but the blower has a glitch and it won't blow the air forcefully enough to cool you off unless its cloudy and mild outside already. The gas guage also doesn't work... it almost always claims it is empty. So keep track of your mileage to have a realistic idea of your fuel level. (It gets an average of 17mpg)

 ****If you want this as a regular van, not Ice Cream Truck, I will be happy to remove all of the decals prior to delivery and put back all the seats, etc.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
