1999 Chevrolet Tahoe – PPV
(Police Pursuit Vehicle) This is a true Police Package Tahoe, not a special service or stripped government truck. It spent its life in the Beverly Hills police department and Orange County California, so no rust. The handling of this vehicle is truly shocking as it will keep up with average BMW around the cloverleafs ! Available from 1997-1999, the Police Package Chevrolet Tahoe was a heavily modified police truck with Z56 suspension package that includes bilstein gas shocks (replaced in 2012), powered by a 255 hp, 5.7 liter Vortec V-8 matched to a four-speed automatic overdrive transmission that was rebuilt at Westminster Transmission ($3500) by previous owner in 2011. The PPV is the full Police
Package Tahoe and an inch lower than regular Tahoes, had a unique plastic grill
with single headlights, and was only available in 2-wheel drive. In testing,
the Police Package Tahoe, it had almost the exact same performance figures as
the police sedans of that time. The Chevy Tahoe saw many uses in police
departments. Many used them for K-9 units, supervisor units, traffic units and
other specialized applications. Not every Chevy Tahoe used by police
departments was a police package like this one is. The interior is blue, original, and in good condition for a vehicle of this age. CarpetsThe 6-way driver seat is incredibly comfortable and has the original leather stitched in to protect the seat from a holstered gun. There is an Alpine Sirius radio installed with premium speakers and large amp. -Paint is what came from
Beverly Hills police department -Rear A/C -Electronic rear view mirror

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch
Mon, 04 Feb 2013According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
