1990 Gmc / Chevy Suburban 6.2 Diesel 1500 2wd on 2040-cars
Beaumont, Texas, United States
1990 GMC Diesel 6.2 Diesel Suburban In overall good shape. This truck spent most of its life on a ranch in South Texas. I purchased it about a year ago with the intention of making it a cross country family traveling vehicle. ( I grew up with a truck just like this ) Well I have put a whole lot of time and effort in it getting to were it is now. I have since gotten a new job and have been given a new company truck, the suburban has just been sitting. I used it twice in the last six months. Once to move, and once to haul a load of furniture a couple hours away. The truck runs well! This truck starts every time and does not smoke or burn oil. It cranks rights up even after sitting for a month. 1990 and 1991 Diesel suburban's came with over drive transmissions and the new style heads. This truck is not slow, it holds it own getting on the freeway and passing. Its not gonna win a drag race, but it has plenty of power to accelerate. This truck will run all day long at 75 or 80 miles per hour and not miss a beat. 90 and 91, 6.2 diesels have the good hi flow heads. The last picture was taken while driving 75mph....smooth Power windows are slow to go up and down, the power locks work, but need to pushed several times to get them all the way up. The rear door sometimes need to be manually unlocked by reaching in. This truck looks really good in the pictures , but is just average in person. I love it, but my wife not so much. Just please be aware its gonna need some cosmetic with the dash and paint to make a really nice truck. The truck also has the third row seat not pictured. The carpet is all in good shape. the headliner is nice, but starting to sag a tinny bit in the very back of the truck. Millage: I AM NOT SURE OF AUCTUALY MILAGE. speedometer works fine but the miles don't click off. its been this way since I got it. I have put maybe 2000 miles on it in a year. I took on 5 or 6 trips, 2 to 5 hours away. no problems. New Stuff: Engine: pulled from truck and all the freeze plugs replaced, new water pump, valve cover and intake gaskets, glow plugs and starter. Transmission: overhauled with new converter (six month warranty, expired) Radiator, thermostat upper and lower hoses (coolant light on because coolant sensor did not fit new radiator, needs brass adapter) Windshield- new Batteries - 2 new, 9 months old. Tires- 4 brand new (less than 1000 miles) Needs: Brakes-the brakes are weak, but very drivable. I have to add brake fluid after it sits. Shocks- The truck drives like a big boat and could use a set of shocks. A/C - looses charge after about a week, rear blower motor out. Dash is cracked, the tint has gone a little blurry Windows-crack in the long side rear passenger and rear window. Paint- faded with scratches. The headlights point down and need to be adjusted and the drivers door is out of alignment (this how I got the truck not sure why its like this) No spare tire. Overall this truck is good condition, ready to drive home. It needs some cosmetics to make it a great truck. Sold AS/IS Clear title in hand/ In my name. |

2014 GMC Sierra 4.3L V6 to offer segment-best 305 LB-FT
Mon, 06 May 2013General Motors has released more information on the 4.3-liter V6 available in the 2014 GMC Sierra. The engine will serve up 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque, with a six-speed automatic transmission, and giving the V6 Sierra a maximum tow rating of 7,200 pounds in regular cab, short bed four-wheel drive configuration. GM claims that figure is 500 pounds more than the equivalent Ford F-150 equipped with a 3.7-liter V6, and 700 pounds more than the Ram 1500 with its 3.6-liter V6. Buyers can expect to see the 2014 GMC Sierra with the 4.3-liter engine start at $25,085 including destination.
While the engine does deliver more torque than either of its main competitors, it falls short on the horsepower front. The 3.7-liter V6 in the F-150 develops 302 hp while the 3.6-liter V6 in the Ram 1500 yields 305 hp. GM says fuel economy estimates for its newest entry will land later this year. Check out the full press release below for more information.
GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
2014 GMC Sierra
Wed, 12 Jun 2013Is the Best GMC Truck Ever Made Good Enough?
We've got a bright aluminum Airstream camper hitched to our rear bumper as we head up Southern California's coast because GMC says that 60 percent of all full-size pickup owners will use their trucks for towing.
Rather than forcing us to absorb its capabilities in a long-winded PowerPoint presentation, the automaker brought us to Los Angeles and handed us the keys to its all-new 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. After jumping behind the wheel of a 5.3-liter V8 model, we drove up the foggy Malibu coast (locals call the soggy early-summer weather "June Gloom") and made our way to the Camarillo Airport for a towing refresher. Once completed, a brand-new 23-foot Airstream was hitched to our aft end and we were pointed towards a campground just west of Santa Barbara.
