2004 Gmc Sierra 3500 Dually Crew Cab Duramax Turbo Diesel Allison 4x4 on 2040-cars
Canton, Connecticut, United States
Up for auction is my 2004 (actually 2004.5) GMC Sierra SLT 3500 Duramax
Dually 4 door crew cab, in immaculate Fine Silver Birch Metallic paint.
Overall it is in exceptional condition. I am the 2nd owner. Here in CT, this truck does not need any emissions testing EVER due to GVWR. This was a
CT truck for it's entire life, used to tow a camper around the country
and move firewood. It was never a "work" truck. It is currently daily
driven and gets consistently 15 mpg around town, a bit more on the
highway. With a programmer on economy/tow mode, it would get more like
17 (I have never had a programmer on this truck). Clean title, and no
known accidents. I am only selling because it is too much truck for my
needs. I am looking to downsize to a more fuel efficient daily car and
older pickup for the dirty work.
Injector balance rates checked out good about 6K miles ago.

Rear seat bottom middle has a rip smaller than a penny - Cracks in the Dually bed sides (common and nearly unavoidable - noted in pictures) - Interior of the bed is dinged/dented from moving firewood, etc - can get some pics, but the bed is full of snow right now - Slight surge at idle. Possible cause is the Fuel Pressure Regulator on its way out, and does not affect driveability and is only noticeable at idle - a brand new FPR is included but not yet installed - it cost roughly $300 - Rockers are JUST starting to bubble on each side in small locations, noted in the pictures. Otherwise the underside and frame are very clean with only minor scale. Factory paint is still present on the frame, with the exception of the rear kickup and spare tire carrier area. You can blame the lovely CT road treatments for the minor stuff starting... - Front diff was going to be drained and filled with amsoil when I changed the oil next. Included is the necessary amsoil to drain and fill the front diff. - Minor paint blemishes here and there typical of a 10 year old vehicle. Nothing too significant, as the pics show - I would give the trans a full flush at the next service. It has never given me issues, but I'd like to replace ALL of the fluid, not just a drain and fill as I did which only gets 50% of the old fluid out You will not be disappointed by this truck. It is extremely reliable and has been well maintained. It is ready to be daily driven. I currently have a loan out on this truck, so the title will be retrieved when payment is received in full (paypal, cash or bank check only - payment must clear at the credit union before I can get the title) Non-refundable $500 deposit due w/in 48 hours of auction ending - no exceptions. I will relist immediately if this is not met. Payment must be received in full within 7 days of auction end, at which point the vehicle must be picked up within 14 days of auction end. KBB Value in "Very Good" condition is $16,434 NADA Value "Clean Retail" is $19,850 Please email me with any questions or to set up a time to view. Located in Canton, CT 06019 This vehicle is being sold in as-is condition. It is encouraged that you set up a time to view in person before the bidding ends, to inspect for yourself. There is no warantee expressed or implied. This is a 10+ year old truck so I may have missed some normal wear and tear in its condition. I believe that I have fairly represented this truck to the best of my ability and knowledge. |

GM expanding Lansing Lambda CUV plant
Thu, 30 Oct 2014Considering that crossovers are a rapidly growing portion of the US auto market, it's not surprising to hear that General Motors is preparing to build even more of them. The company is investing $63 million to expand its Lansing Delta Township Assembly plant that builds Lambda platform CUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave.
According to GM, the expansion will add roughly 263,000 extra square feet of space to the plant. Of that, 181,000 square feet will be for an updated body shop with cutting-edge robots. There will also be 54,000 square feet of additional room in the paint shop and 28,000 square feet of more area for general assembly.
GM isn't saying as much, but there is the possibility that this extra space could allow for additional models produced at the factory. Cadillac reportedly dropped plans to build a three-row SUV on the Lambda platform earlier this year, however, dealers for the luxury brand were recently pitched the possibility of adding large and small CUVs, an ATS convertible or a sedan below the ATS.
GM to sell rebranded Peugeot vans in US?
Wed, 10 Jul 2013According to a report by France's La Tribune cited by Reuters, General Motors and Peugeot are discussing the possibility of selling PSA Peugeot-Citroën commercial vans in the US through The General's dealership network. While specific models and what brand they may sell under stateside are not immediately clear, the move isn't entirely out of the blue, particularly since GM owns seven percent of the French automaker.
Peugeot and GM already have a joint-venture agreement to ease costs associated with vehicle development and procuring parts, and while the progress of the arrangement has been inhibited some by Europe's difficult economy, the two automakers are looking to expand the relationship. With sales in the dumpster, Peugeot's long-term prospects have looked particularly shaky as of late, and GM could use a modern commercial van lineup to better compete with North America's suddenly modern and Euro-fied competition. Mercedes-Benz kicked off the high-roof trend with its Sprinter, and for 2014, Ford is following with its Transit van (joining its smaller Transit Connect sibling), while Chrysler is leveraging its relationship with Fiat to rebrand the Ducato range of vans as Ram Promaster models.
Peugeot already has a full line of commercial van solutions in its stable, from its compact Partner and Bipper models to the larger Expert and Boxer models, which are available in a variety of cargo and people-carrying configurations.
2015 Chevy Colorado to start at $20,100*, GMC Canyon at $20,995**
Tue, 05 Aug 2014General Motors has just announced pricing for its new midsize pickup trucks, the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. Chevy's truck starts at $20,100, *not including $895 for destination, and the GMC starts at $20,995, **not including $925 for destination. These prices are for the base, extended cab models with the 200-horsepower, 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine.
Comparatively, these prices fit nicely with the $18,125 starting MSRP of the Toyota Tacoma and the $21,510 of the Nissan Frontier. Compared to the Colorado, the Canyon's extra $895 gets you niceties like LED running lamps, 16-inch alloy wheels, and a four-way power driver's seat.
Both trucks come standard with the 2.5-liter engine, and a more powerful, 305-hp 3.6-liter V6 will also be available. Pricing has not been announced for the upcoming diesel model, which is expected to launch for the 2016 model year.
