This 1986 Chevrolet Suburban with the Silverado package has an equalizing trailer hitch and extra-heavy suspension for towing a heavy trailer.  


The vehicle is in good running condition and has near-new tires.  It was overhauled by the local dealership last year, and has no serious mechanical problems.  The hauling capabilities of this machine are awesome!  We've used it to move everything from huge loaded haywagons to a very heavy 26 foot vintage travel trailer - with the cargo area loaded, 6 people on board, and a canoe strapped to the roof - with excellent results.  The non-slip differential makes it great for muddy/snowy conditions.

As one should expect on a vehicle of this age, there is some deterioration and minor niggling faults; but nothing that really restricts the usefulness of the vehicle.  There is some hesitation and tendency to stall, reflecting the need for carb work - something the dealer (who obviously only uses Chevy-supplied parts) couldn't address.  There has been some body work on the lower fenders/rocker panels, needed to pass PA inspection.  The finish on the roof is peeling, and shows some surface rust through the primer we used last season.  The driver's seat back has worn thin, there's a couple of tears in the headliner,  and the passenger door lock sometimes has to be opened manually.

Routine gas mileage isn't as bad as one might expect; 12 mpg seems to be about the norm.  It's got a big gas tank, which does negate the need for frequent refilling.  The engine performs far cleaner - and better - if one uses a higher grade in the tank.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4

Wed, 29 May 2013

Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
