The Chevrolet Avalanche is the "Lexus Pickup" in my opinion - you will be hard pressed to find another pickup (or even many cars, vans, suburbans, etc) with as comfortable a ride as the Avalanche.  If you haven't driven or ridden in one, give one a test drive!

V8 Flex Fuel, 5.3 L, Crew Cab, Cloth Upholstery, Excellent Condition, Non-Smoking, Carfax Report available showing no issues.

All oil changes, and majority of other vehicle work (brakes, new tires, etc) were handled by the local Chevrolet Dealership except for front brake pads replaced by a garage in Franklin, Tennessee and a new battery in early June from Auto Zone. The local Chevrolet Dealership completed a $5,200 major overhaul on the engine based on a GM Technical Service Bulletin (a level just below a recall since the excessive oil consumption would not cause a safety issue).  The Service Manager said this 5.3 L aluminum block engine was assembled in Mexico and the quality of the parts was not as high as needed to be.  The overhaul used parts made in Canada (pistons, rings, camshaft, lifters, etc).  The Service Manager said this engine now after the overhaul should be good for 300,000 miles.  I can provide the name of the dealership and the service manager for interested bidders.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
