I'm selling my 1997 Chevy truck as I haven't any need of it anymore. It has a new this last summer PT flatbed put on it. The motor is not a rebuild but a 454 crate motor from GM and now has around 38000 miles on it. The trans is a HD 5 speed with only 7500 miles on it. The rear end was rebuilt with with new seals and bearings and all new 3.73 gears, and only has around 9000 miles on it. It had springs for a 2 ton installed and another 1 ton helper springs in the rear. You can really put 3 ton on the rear and it will not bottom out. The most I have towed with it was a 21000 lb 45' 5th wheel and the truck did it with out any issues. The truck runs and drives like new and I have it setup to haul any trailer out there. It has a 10,000 lb goose-neck, 24,000 lb Super 5th wheel, and 10,000 lb bumper hitch as well. I used it as a hot shot hauler and moved camping trailers with it all over the US and Canada. It has 4 new tires and 2 still good useable ones so it can be put right to work. It has had almost everything in the front end replaced as well. Like Tie-rods, ball joints and wheel bearings. The brakes are about 1 year old as well as the rear shocks. Over the past two years the guy I got it from and myself have put close to $9500.00 into the truck and it is more then ready to start working with it. The only bad is that a tree limb fell on the passenger back corner of the cab. That broke the back window out of the truck and left a dent, so I jacked the window opening back out to put a new glass in. As I'm out of work and don't have the money at this time to finish putting the glass in and fix the rest of the dent, I am selling it cheap. This truck will pull anything and keep on going. Only the Truck cab and frame has over 267000 miles on them and the rest of the truck has been upgraded. Really this is a work horse and has years of life left in it, so don't let the miles on the odometer scare you. You could jump in and drive from here to California and not have to worry if it will make it.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
