Up for bid is a 2004 Chevy Suburban Z71 4x4. It has had only 2 previous Owners and as per Carfax has not ben in any accidents. It has 152,911 miles on it. Mechanically the vehicle is very sound and appears to have been well maintained. The motor (5.3 L V8 Vortec) is very strong and smooth as is the transmission. The previous Owner said he changed the oil religiously every 3- 4000 miles. The 4wd is in good working order in 4wd hi and 4wd Lo. The suspension appears tight, smooth and nimble, no clunks or prevalent noises when going over bumps etc... This S.U.V is very well equipped with, leather trim, heated and power front seats, power wins, locks & heated mirrors, tilt wheel, cruise control, Bose audio system with cassette and CD, Auto dim rr view mirror, keyless entry, roof rack, privacy glass, alloy wheels, tow pkg and more... MSRP when new was $46,425. Copy of window sticker included. Current faults with vehicle. Airbag light on on dash. Strange because it hasn't been in an accident. Previous Owner brought to Chevy dealer and was told airbag light coming on intermittently in Suburbans not uncommon and quoted $200 - $600 to resolve light. The check engine light was on we diagnosed it and cleared the one code that showed up it was p0442 Evap emission control system leak (small). As per our mechanic normally less than $200 to repair/ replace. Neither front windows currently go up or down, probably just a fuse or switch. The air cond is cool not cold, could just need a frion charge. There is a 6 inch tear on drivers seat seam and front tires have aprox 35% tread life left where as rears have aprox 80% tread life left. And lastly paint on hood appears duller than rest of vehicle. We waxed it, yet still kinda flat. Other than that this is a well taken care of vehicle that is a real pleasure to drive and has a lot of versatility, towing, 4wd, 8 passenger, huge cargo area etc... Exterior hardly has a scratch or ding on it. interior pretty nice shape as well, there are some stains on carpets for example yet nothing a good scrubbing cant conquer.
NADA retail value for this vehicle is $11,175. There is no reserve!!!! I will answer any ?'s I can. Clean title, being sold as is no warranties implied or represented.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
