Wrentham, Massachusetts, United States

Bought it on eBay and drove it up from Oklahoma in 2003. Completely rust free at the time, it now has one small hole behind each door and rust on the lower part of the driver's rocker panel, shown in photos. The cab is so tight it's easier to close the door if you open a window. 350 gas, 3-speed stick w/low (some would call it a 4-speed), dual 20-gallon tanks, dual exhaust that needs work, twin 10,000lb. Ramsey winches with 100 ft. of 3/8" cable on each; power tilt & telescoping boom with nylon sling, 6,000lb. wheel-lift, Force 4 XL-4000 light bar (guy I bought it from made a big deal out of it but it's just another light bar to me), gantry lights and tilt wheel. Also has: Lucerne grille guard, 28"X19" triple core radiator, hydroboost brakes, load range E tires, remote high idle control, tagalongs, dolly set and of course, a clear title. Truck runs great: starts easily in all weather and runs beautifully. There's exactly one failed hydraulic hose: on the cross beam of the wheel lift right at the pivot pin where all the steel and hoses meet. Fortunately it's not a critical function and it doesn't leak if you don't use its associated lever. I've only put 9000 miles on it in the ten years I've owned it, using it only occasionally for buying/moving project cars, motorcycles (I can show you how), auto junking, fetching firewood, hoisting a pallet of shingles up to my garage roof, picking and placing boulders around the yard, etc. etc. etc. Short wheelbase and narrow body allows you to place a disabled vehicle in slots a ramp truck can only peer into. Parking brake cables are frozen. Comes with a spare wheel, extra tires and any other spares I've accumulated for it over the years. Please scrutinize the photos and don't hesitate to ask for more if there's anything else you'd like to see. Thanks for looking and reading all this!

2015 Chevy Canyon, GMC Colorado to net up to 27 mpg with 4-cylinder

Mon, 22 Sep 2014

Before even officially going on sale to customers, the GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado midsize pickup twins are already proving to be a success with dealer orders exceeding original projections. Now, there is even more good news for these siblings, with the fuel economy for their four-cylinder engines netting class-leading numbers and the 3.6-liter V6 getting segment-best payload ratings.
The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the two trucks makes 200 horsepower and 191 pound-feet of torque, and in rear-wheel drive and six-speed manual trim it has an EPA rating of 19 mpg city, 26 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined. Opting for a two-wheel drive configuration with the six-speed automatic bumps those figures slightly to 20 mpg city, 27 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined. Finally, a four-wheel drive model with the automatic 'box carries a 19/25/21 rating. Those numbers are a tick better here and there compared to what's offered by the optional V6.
The twins' major four-cylinder, midsize pickup rivals are the Toyota Tacoma and Nissan Frontier, but they're both getting somewhat long in the tooth. To compare fuel economy and power, a two-wheel drive Tacoma with its 2.7-liter four-cylinder is rated at 159 hp and 180 lb-ft, and achieves 21/25/22 mpg. The Frontier with its 2.5-liter four-cylinder is good for 152 hp and 171 lb-ft, and carries 19/23/21 mpg figures.

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
