1990 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Full-size - No Reserve on 2040-cars
Vinton, Virginia, United States
Selling my 1990 K5 Blazer. This is a good running, driving truck. The odometer shows 300,000 miles, but you wouldn't know it to drive it. The engine runs strong, the transmission shifts smooth and the interior looks like new. Interior: The interior looks brand new. I cleaned the carpets and seats and it still has the original GM floor mats. I also just installed a dash pad, new power window and door lock switches and I reconditioned the door panels when I installed the switches. When I bought the Blazer, it has a cheap aftermarket radio so I bought an OE radio on eBay and installed it -works great. Exterior: The body overall is in good condition. There are a few rust spots in the rocker panels and over the rear wheel wells (see details in the pictures). The clear coat was peeling badly, so I did a rattle can paint job on it. It looks good from 10 feet and will be fine for everyday use. The chrome bumpers are in good condition. Mechanical: New front tires ($320). New starter, power brake booster, serpentine belt & tensioner ($200). The engine runs strong but does leak some oil from the rear of the engine (what GM small block doesn't leak a little). Transmission shifts very smoothly but does leak some fluid from the front of the transmission (what GM transmission doesn't leak a little). The 4wd works fine. A/C does not appear to work, but I've never really needed to use it. I'm also not sure the cruise control works, but I only drive around town so I've never tried to use it. This is not a show truck and is not priced like one but if you just want a good running, driving vehicle this is a good one. I have set a fair reserve price.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in
Sat, 15 Jun 2013You 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.
GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
