South Elgin, Illinois, United States

 Up for sale is my ex US airforce S-10 this truck has 43510 original miles on it most of its time was sitting on one of several airforce bases first on the east coast when new then sent to grissom AFB in central Indiana where picked up from. I then had to put a fuel pump in and had the fuel tank cleaned out of all the old stale gasoline added a new battery, door weather stripping, window felt and tracks, tires, carpet and heater core. The truck has a 2.5 liter four cylinder engine hooked up to a 700R4 overdrive trans the truck drives great its not a power plant but gets great fuel mileage and I wouldn't hesitate to drive this anywhere in the US. The color is the original airforce strata blue as seen in the pics the clear coat is gone on the hood and roof from sitting out in the sun for years the paint has many dings and small scratches there is a bit of rust on the cab corners and the corner of the DS door but no holes or rust through. Its pretty hard to find a truck like this in the Midwest and shipping a rust free one from the west coast is now well over a thousand dollars. Its a very reliable truck and the only reason its being sold is because I just purchased a full size classic chevy truck and have no room for it as for the price try to buy a truck now days with the low mileage and clean body this truck has in the Midwest you would be lucky to get one at three times the price if you are looking for a show truck or a truck to haul a five thousand pound boat and trailer this is not the truck you want if you want a truck you can drive anywhere economically and not worry about breaking down this is the perfect vehicle. I have hauled paver bricks and firewood with this truck and it handles the weight better than one would expect it to there is no cracked or broken glass anywhere on the truck. You can see the PS window crank is not on the truck in the pics the clip was lost when removiving the door panel for installing the window felt channel s it will be replaced before the truck sells. It also comes with the original matching fiberglass cap and two spare tires one window is out of the cap it was broken from a rock thrown from a snowblower this truck has been heavily undercoated sometime in its past it has a military spec 20 gallon gas tank and heavy duty suspension the truck is up for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction if it should sell locally any questions call me at eight four seven four six eight nine six seven six.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]

Wed, 15 May 2013

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."

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.
