I really really hate to sell this truck but finances force it so my loss is your gain. This is a hard to find and very desirable first generation Jimmy/Blazer. It runs great and accelerates quickly with 3.73 gears from the factory and a strong-shifting turbo 350 automatic transmission. I had starting doing some cosmetic work to  it such as new mirrors, steering wheel, arm rests,  and marker lights. It would be an easy restoration for someone since the only rust issues are around the rear wheel wells on the interior. Not bad and easy fixes in my opinion. This is the more desirable fancier Custom model from the factory. The 350 appears to be original, Even has the original metal upper radiator pipe(hose) that came on 4X4s..Rear hatch is good shape as they are usually broken badly from years of use. The top comes off all the way to windshield to make a full convertible. No rust through around the windshield frame and rocker boxes underneath are solid. Floorboards are solid with just minor work needed. I have the original blue console and blue rear seat both in excellent original condition. The truck is dark blue from the factory which is a rarer color. It has BRAND NEW BFG 33 in All terrains!!! Blue color still on the white letters and nipples still on the tread. Probably not 10 miles on the tires. I also installed rally rims that I think look great with the trim rings and center caps. I have a clear SC title in my name. I know I have left off some info so Please ask questions. This truck is perfectly driveable as is just needs cosmetics. Thanks for looking

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra first pickups to ace updated NHTSA tests [w/video]

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

General Motors has just become the first pickup truck manufacturer to receive five-star overall vehicle scores in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's New Car Assessment Program. The updated safety standards, which went into effect in 2011, are more strenuous than the previous NHTSA curriculum and involve collecting both more and more substantial data, reflecting the improved safety inherent in newer vehicles. This feat is made more impressive by the fact that both Ford and Ram have released brand-new trucks since the new testing went into effect - GM's victory is no technicality.
The rating only applies to the redesigned, light-duty Silverado, Sierra and their upmarket variants, High Country and Denali, respectively, while only Crew Cab variants were tested. Considering that the four-door body style will make up 60 percent of GM's light-duty truck sales, the exclusion of the other variants seems reasonable.
This news is sure to be yet another feather in GM's pickup-oriented cap. Be sure to scroll down for video of the crash testing, as well as the full press release from General Motors.

GM reportedly recalling select 2014 Silverado, Sierra pickups over airbag issue

Sun, 21 Jul 2013

General Motors is recalling 843 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra Crew Cab pickups, due to a fault with the vehicle's airbags. According to GM, the airbags may not inflate properly in the event of a crash. There haven't been any crashes or injuries associated with this recall, which is always good. Naturally, repairs will be free of charge, and GM will begin contacting affected owners soon.
GM has a lot hanging on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Not only is it banking over $12,000 per vehicle on these trucks, as reported by Automotive News, but GM is counting on the Sierra and Silverado to take the fight to cross-town rivals Ford and Ram. The F-150 and Ram 1500 have been on a tear over the past few years, with fresh updates, advanced powertrains, and plenty of solid press while the GM trucks have been waiting for the 2014-model-year upgrades.
It's still entirely too early to judge the Sierra and Silverado, particularly as those 843 recalled trucks make up barely two percent of the over 40,000 units moved so far. But, as AN rightly states, these trucks are the most important vehicles to come out of GM since bankruptcy, with about 60 percent of global profits relating to pickups and SUVs. Starting an introduction of such a big product with a recall, however small, is not the preferred way to do things.
