1997 Gmc Safari Sl Extended Van 3-door 4.3l Hightop Astro New Jasper Engine on 2040-cars
Paris, Tennessee, United States
|
Selling my 1997 GMC Hightop Conversion Van. As you can tell by the pictures, this van is in very good condition and I will try my best to describe it accurately. We just returned from an over 1400 mile trip to Florida and the van never missed a beat. I would not be afraid to take off anywhere at anytime in it. We had two adults and four teenagers plus loaded full of luggage and it still got around 18 mpg going 75 mph. This van stayed parked in the same spot for five days after we returned home and there was one very small spot underneath it and that's it!! At 167921 miles a new Jasper Engine was added on 9/18/2013. Inlcuded in that I have paperwork along with the identifying papers and numbers to Jasper. Just before we left for Florida I had the transmission completely flushed and all fluids installed. Also had complete cooling flush. Also I had 2 brand new Goodyear Viva 2 215/75/R15 tires put on so they only have about 1500 miles on them. The rear tires are about 80 to 85%. Temperature always remains the same at 180F. All new windshield wipers installed a month ago. New vent visors, New headlights, New side lights and new parking lamps just added before vacation. Also new window tint. Inside is the coldest air for front and rear. Rear air system is a Pro-Air 134. And truly is the coldest air I have ever had on any car. All systems in good working order. AM/FM Cassette CD and best of all is newer model Legacy LMR1344 monitor with Emerson DVD. Along with those it comes with 4 sets of infra-red wireless headphones and both remote controls. So if you got kids and going on a trip stop by Redbox and the only thing you hear from them is when they bust out laughing. :) I also took pictures of all the bad. Has small crack in dash. Otherwise dash in good condition. Rear bumper on drivers side has scrape. Small dent below mid drivers side window. The drivers seat has wear on it from getting in and out and all other interior is in good condition. The passenger side window rolls down fine but often needs help getting back up. Probably needs new motor just never did really need it. As usual the clearcoat on the top is coming off. Carpet is kind of faded in spots but is clean. Two small spots in windshield and one of those I could barely get to show up. This van is road ready and I have a bunch more pictures if there is something else you would like to see. And please feel free to call or email with any concerns or questions you may have. I will be more than happy to assist with delivery so just ask and we can work that out. Open to interesting trades although cash is king. Thanks. (731)-225-7941 |

GM updating fullsize pickups for 2015
Sat, 10 May 2014As Ford prepares to hit the market with its x-factor, aluminum-intensive F-150 and Ram sales stand tall enough to meet General Motors truck sales eye-to-eye, GM is putting the word out that it's going to add more features to its trucks and do so more regularly. An executive engineer for pickups told reporters that "a whole array" of changes are on the way as soon as the 2015 model year and then would likely come "the year after that, the year after that, the year after that."
Only GM knows the way it plans to go with its fullsize trucks, with almost everyone else - including its dealers - griping about market share at the same time as they applaud profits and hope for clarity and growth. GM raised prices on the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra not long after launch even as it was losing market share and getting called "the least successful large pickup launch over the last 15 years," further upsetting dealers, then Ram outsold the Silverado in March of this year and led GM to increase incentives. But transaction prices rose with the premium; in the first quarter of this year more than 37 percent of the trucks costing more than $40,000 were the Silverado and Sierra, leading one dealer to say of the Sierra, "You can't sell a cheap one," and the analyst who made that "least successful launch" comment to opine, "GM may have made the right call to go for price over share."
We won't know for a few months what any of these updates will be, but the rumored changes for the Silverado and Sierra appear to cover all the bases, including appearance, capability and fuel economy. Rumors run to higher gear counts, stop-start technology and diesel engines before brand-new pickups come for the 2019 model year, those next-generation models supposedly to be engineered with a lot more aluminum.
Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.
