Truck is in extremely good shape for 2004. Not mint but very very very good shape. We used the truck as the Kenwood eXcelon demo vehicle for the past 2 years here at Big Picture AVU. Truck itself is in very good shape. I didn't drive it much further than back and forth to the store so not much wear and tear since I've had it. Tires are in pretty good shape as well. It has been parked during the winters and as of the moment only has storage insurance on it. My wife used to be a technician at one of the service shops here in Cranbrook and went over the truck regularly. If it needed to be fixed... it got fixed! Truck does not leak or sweat from anywhere. This truck literally needs nothing. I purchased it locally from Northstar GM as an "optimum used" vehicle. I had a levelling kit installed in it by Integra Tire which allowed for the slightly larger 31" tires.
Really good solid vehicle both mechanically and cosmetically. As I mentioned this truck was used as a Kenwood demo vehicle for Big Picture so it did have a really nice audio system in it. If you are interested in car audio I can arrange to have a nice system put back into it otherwise I will just put a basic one back into it. The graphics on the rocker panels and rear glass ARE NOT paint. They are vinyl graphics made up by our friends at Selkirk Signs. They are 100% removable with NO damage to the paint underneath. The rocker graphics actually will have protected the paint so whether you want them or not it will have been a benefit to you that they were there! The entire truck is also lined in sound damping material (dynamat) which we used to improve the sound quality of the system however if you are not into car audio it also does a great job at keeping out road noise! This will be the quietest Colorado in town! 

I want this truck sold and will consider realistic offers. I would also consider a trade for a Ford Sport Trac or a 4 door Jeep Wrangler.


I will only sell this truck to someone that can finish the paperwork with me in person. In other words NOBODY who wants to buy it for top dollar who conveniently is stationed in Australia but would be more than happy to cover the shipping costs! 
I require a $500 deposit when the auction ends. This is the only form of payment that I will accept through paypal. The rest needs to be sorted out in person. If you live near the Cranbrook area the truck is available in person and for a reasonable offer I have no issue ending this auction.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
