1 Ton Single Cab 4x4 Diesel Gmc Sierra on 2040-cars
Vienna, Illinois, United States
|
Original 1 ton GMC Sierra pickup truck. I have owned this truck for 20 years. I bought the truck in 1994 off of a dealer in Fox Lake Illinois. The truck had around 80,000 miles on it when I bought it. I mainly drove this truck when I was in High School. At the time I was not looking for a truck with a lift, but it was already on it when I bought it. The truck has a 4 inch lift so it is not excessive and looks good. I have always kept this truck shedded since I have owned it. It currently sits in the pole barn covered up. The mice have not been in it. I start it up about once every three months to keep mechanical parts working, motor lubed ect. I am selling the truck because I need to reduce my fleet of vehicles. I also do not want to keep paying insurance on it since I do not drive it. I have spent a lot of money on this truck over the years, way more than what it is worth to keep it original. I have replaced the radiator. Right after I bought it from the dealer it had a small leak so I changed the whole radiator. The doors, bed sides, tail gait are new. The lights on the tailgate are original with the 1 ton package at the time. It has been painted back to original midnight Black, factory color. The body man put extra clear coat on for extreme protection . Several years back the dash started cracking so I replaced it with a new one. The headliner has been replaced and is still good shape, this was a common problems with these older trucks. The seat is in good shape, I always had a seat cover on it to keep it nice. I fixed the steering column because it got loose along with the ignition switch. It has tilt wheel. The windshield wiper control lever is new. All the gauges work. The transfer case was rebuilt by a local 4x4 shop. When they rebuilt this they went ahead and put in a new clutch, throw out bearing, new u joints, seals, ect . The brakes are like new. The tires have less than 5000 miles on them, so they are in good shape. It has a 4 speed transmission with 4:10 gear ratio Dana 70 rear end. The power windows work. The engine runs good, no major leaks. The engine has been completely rebuilt over the years. The block was shipped off to St. Louis to be fixed back in 1995. I had the heads magnafluxed, welded and resurfaced by Mac Weld in Carbondale IL. It has hydraulic lifters on the heads. Everything was always put back original down to the wiring, no half jobs. I put new head bolts on the heads when they were installed back. The glow plugs work good, they have been changed over the years. When I had the body work done, I changed one fuel tank out, so one is newer than the other. No leaks on the tanks. The motor has its usual blow by. The motor is around 370 Cubic inch displacement detroit engine, not the converted 5.9. The batteries are in good shape. It has two batteries purchased september 2011. I never smoked in this truck. I never mudded this truck. I did my best to keep the truck original. Some extras I added to it over the years was a bug shield, full set of running boards, visor and bed caps. Sliding window was factory original. I like the looks of the old GM trucks and really would miss the truck. Any other questions you can call me at 618-771-2363. |

GM renders new Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon pickups
Thu, 08 Aug 2013At a series of industry seminars in Traverse City, MI today, General Motors executive vice president Dan Ammann gifted us with our first glimpse of the upcoming midsize pickup range from Chevrolet and GMC.
Just two slivers of nose are all we can see of the soon-to-be announced Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon, though the teaser image does make plain that the pair will follow the styling cues (at least up front) found on big brothers Silverado and Sierra.
GM hasn't given us much in the way of detail in its ultra-brief press release that accompanied the teaser image, which is to be expected. We're told only that the pair of trucks are designed to be "capable, versatile and fuel-efficient alternatives to full-size pickups" and that production will start sometime in 2014, at the Wentzville, MO assembly center.

Mon, 29 Jul 2013Big And Boxy Might Be Best
As immense fans of the Back to the Future trilogy, we sometimes like to envision an alternate timeline in which General Motors had killed off GMC and kept Pontiac instead. The G8 GXP would still be on the road handily beating German sport sedans costing twice as much, while the lowly G3 would morph into a true subcompact-killer based on what is now the Chevrolet Sonic RS. While we're at it, let's go ahead and imagine the G6 has become the best-selling car in the US and the Torrent crossover is selling 20,000+ units per month. Far-fetched, we know.
The thing is, these fanciful statements would have to be true to make the case against keeping GMC. Pontiac may have offered more excitement than GMC, but money talks, and a full line of trucks, crossovers and SUVs have made a lot more money for GM than the arrowhead brand ever did. How much? As we learned last month, about two-thirds of GM's global profits came from its fullsize trucks, and GMC's trucks typically have thicker margins than their Chevrolet counterparts.
2015 GMC Canyon
Wed, 24 Sep 2014As discussed earlier today, the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado is a new standout in terms of midsize trucks. But the Colorado wasn't the only pickup the General Motors team brought to San Diego for us to sample. Also along for the ride was a pack of GMC Canyons, the slightly more expensive and polished platform-mate to the Chevy.
There's no question that the Canyon and the Colorado are a lot alike under the skin - almost entirely, in fact - so GMC has worked to first create some daylight between the two trucks by way of sheetmetal. This is most obvious from the front view, where the blocky and blingy GMC grille replaces the more subdued tone and shape seen on the Chevy's nose. Projector headlights with LED running lights come as standard, and, again, with the squared-off look that is typical of the brand. 16-inch aluminum wheels come stock on the GMC, too, with the 17-inchers seen on my photo truck offered as standard equipment on the top-trim SLT.
GMC considers the Canyon to be the only premium truck in the segment (which is clearly true), and the team has spent a ton of time and effort to get the interior correct to prove out that point. "Any trim that looks like metal, is metal," I was told at the product briefing, a certain indication that the company is serious about bringing a new class of buyer to a truck segment that it hopes to redefine.
