History

This pickup has had one driver since new, It was used by my brother in-law, a project manager for a construction outfit, to commute between construction sites in the New England area. Typically this commuting would be driving empty, or hauling some construction tools in the back like air compressors or nail guns. Originally it was leased to the Construction company but when the lease was up it was purchased by my brother in-law and he continued to use it daily. The reason for sale is moving up to a crew cab pickup.

Condition
Over all condition is excellent, The gray/black Cloth interior is clean and smoke free as it has never been smoked in. It has been used to occasionally haul a couple of yellow lab dogs, and their hair sticks to absolutely everything as you can see in some of the pictures, but this hair does vacuum up fine.  The truck does not smell like dog inside, it smells fine.  All of the Glass is good with no cracks.The interior panels, floor, and dash are all as they should be.  The Exterior is also in excellent condition, the white paint shines just like it should. There may be some small dings or imperfections in the body if you look really closely, but nothing you wouldn't expect for truck of this age.
Tires are about half tread, plenty of life remaining in them for now.
Mechanically the truck is sound. The Engine/transmission/rear end/brakes/4x4 all function as they should without any strange noises or anything like that.
Overall its a well cared for pickup, with regular oil changes and routine maintenance.

Features
4x4, automatic, V8 engine. It has the WT package which is basically the bare bones options package, rubber floors, cloth seats, but it does have A/C, cruise control, and power windows and locks.  The Cruise control as well as the power windows and locks were added by the dealership, they are not factory options, but they were added properly and function as they should.  It does have a trailer hitch and the associated wiring, and has towed a small trailer twice that we can think of.  Also comes with a decent aluminum toolbox as shown in the pictures.

Inspection
The pickup is available for inspection near West Kingston Rhode Island, please use the contact seller link to arrange a time to inspect and take it for a drive.  It would be best to do this during the evening or weekend.

Shipping and Payment
There is a $250 deposit to be made via paypal within 48 hours. We would prefer if the buyer were to pick the truck up in person and pay the balance with cash or certified check/money order from a bank we can verify, but if you need to have the truck shipped/delivered to you, we will do what we can to help on this end.  Shipping/Delivery is of course ultimately the buyers responsibility, and payment is due before the truck leaves.  I'll accept personal check as well, but I need at least 11 days after receiving a personal check before the vehicle leaves.  The truck has a Clear Rhode Island title.  Also the pickup should be good to drive pretty much anywhere if you choose to fly in and drive it home.  The nearest airport is Providence (PVD), its about a half hour away.

What if you don't like it when you get here?
Well, hopefully that doesn't happen, and my feedback ratings should be assurance that the listing is accurate and descriptive of the pickup. But If you for some reason choose not to buy the pickup, we keep the $250 deposit to cover the cost of this listing etc, that is all.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.
