Hello.  With our boys heading to college, its time to downsize and sell our dependable family SUV.  I have spared no expense maintaining this truck because this SUV hauls my family every day through every kind of weather.  As I'll explain, this truck is in absolutely perfect mechanical condition and should make someone a reliable, affordable vehicle for many years to come.  Pick it up and drive it to the grocery store or anywhere across country with confidence.

The basics:  The Suburban is powered by a 5.3l v8 with automatic transmission.  It has push button four wheel drive with high and low range. We've never towed or plowed with it but it sure has plenty of power. The truck starts in any weather without fail and has never let us down.  I have taken great care of it going above and beyond on maintenance.  I've done the oil and filter changes religiously with premium products. The truck does not smoke, use oil, or leak a drop of any fluids. 

Serviced recently:  Brand new air conditioning compressor, brand new ceramic heavy duty brake pads on all 4 wheels, brand new rotors on all 4 wheels, 4 newer matching goodyear all season tires with 90% tread.  Its super roomy with 3 rows of seats for 9 adults and all your gear.  The double barn doors on the back are a great feature for loading and unloading groceries, sleds, your stuff.

The Good:  Truck is well maintained and has never let us down.  Frame and paint is solid with no rot or rust issues.  It is reliable, roomy, and safe.  The 4x4 system works great and the truck is very sure-footed; she's gotten the family home safely every time through the worst New England blizzards and ice storms.  The GM 5.3l v8 is known to go 3-400,000 miles or more with proper maintenance.   At 150k this truck is still breaking in.  All the glass and paint are in good shape.  The kelly blue book retail value is $8,540.

The Bad:  The passenger side rear seatbelt needs an adjustment as one of our guests pulled it all the way out so the recoil mechanism isn't working.  The driver side rear door panel is loose and needs new fasteners.  The front bench seat is black vinyl and has a tear on the driver side.  The two rear rows of bench seats are tan leather.  There are dings and spills as you would expect from 4 boys and their friends climbing around in the truck.  There is one or two shopping cart dings on the outside.   This won't compete with a prius in gas mileage but I always preferred the tough, large envelope around my family over fuel economy.  That's it.

Please check my feedback and bid with confidence.  This will make you a nice, dependable, safe vehicle for any years to come if you keep up with the maintenance.  There is no shipping for the truck.  There are no warranties on this sale.  Title is clear and in hand.  Buyer will get title and bill of sale. Please be prepared to conclude this transaction within 7 days of auction close. Cash at pickup is strongly preferred though I accept paypal if you want the protections it provides.  You are most welcome to come check out the truck before bidding.

Thank you for checking out this auction.  Good luck bidding.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above.

Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
