[00:00:46]Let's go for a ride.

[00:01:19]Door panel's in good shape. Buzzer's working. The dash looks awesome. Showing 138,000 mi. Turn the ignition on.

[00:01:28]Starts up good. Great oil pressure.

[00:01:29]Almost 60 lbs. Engine temperatures up.

[00:01:31]Let's shut the door.

[00:01:35]Fire windows and tinted windows.

[00:01:38]Yep.

[00:01:41]Interior.

[00:01:45]It's actually in great shape. Radio.

[00:01:49]Oh yeah. AC coal.

[00:01:53]Don't know what that is.

[00:01:56]Backup camera maybe. I don't know.

[00:02:02]Plenty of space for your cups, your armrests.

[00:02:08]Oh, that one's ripped.

[00:02:13]AC is cold. We're cutting it off.

[00:02:15]Wipers, of course, they work. Horns.

[00:02:17]Place your Oh, wow. You need a wiper blade. That one's going to scratch the windshield if you're not careful. And that windshield's nice and clean up top here.

[00:02:30]Yeah, they work.

[00:02:33]What? What does that do? Nothing. Just style. That's just style right there.

[00:02:38]All right.

[00:02:40]Got fog lights up top.

[00:02:43]Oh, it is style. Check it out. I got stalls in the roof of my car.

[00:02:50]That's the original stars, guys. Horn, what did you think? Of course. Let's hit the road. See how it runs and drives. It is time to roll out.

[00:03:02]We're going to head on out of here. This truck very self-explanatory.

[00:03:06]We're going to light up the underc carriage. We'll get a couple outside shots, but good old driver here. Need some windshield wipers. We know that. I see him up there kind of torn.

[00:03:18]suspension. This is a very rough parking lot here in the suspension to handle it perfect.

[00:03:33]Coming on down this road here.

[00:03:49]Got a little bit of a left pull there.

[00:03:51]You can see it on the steering.

[00:03:56]Speedo is working.

[00:04:07]Brakes feel pretty good. I'm going to jump on over here.

[00:04:21]Everything's working like it should.

[00:04:22]Just a little bit of a front end fade.

[00:04:26]Not bad, though.

[00:04:30]Brakes, rotors are a little warped, passing gear, all that stuff's work, working just right. Rotor's a little bit warped, though, on the front. Kind of see I'm shaking the steering wheel there.

[00:04:46]All the vitals are good. It's nice and cool up in here.

[00:04:50]Wonder if there's a CD in there.

[00:04:57]No, no CD.

[00:05:04]Power locks are working great.

[00:05:07]Easy test drive.

[00:05:09]Basically, next we're going to pull into this parking lot. We'll get some outside shots. We're going to light up the underc carriage like we always do, just to give you a full look from front to back.

[00:05:28]The most important thing on this video is going to be picking out the claws.

[00:05:34]And a little bit of a tire vibration, I think. I want to check the tires. Make sure they're all good. They have great tread.

[00:05:46]But you can see the steering wheel shaking when I hit the brakes, which means the rotors are warped.

[00:05:58]And it does kind of feel like we got a little bit of a tire vibration.

[00:06:02]Yeah.

[00:06:05]Let's check it all out and I'll be back.

[00:06:40]Heat. Heat.

[00:07:31]Heat. Heat. Heat.

[00:07:46]Heat.

[00:08:23]heading on back to Maple Motors now.

[00:08:27]Well, she turned out pretty good. Engine temperature is great. Oil pressure is at 60. We're running and mechanically fine.

[00:08:34]Um I want to see at that 40 if it's got a little bit of a bounce cuz we may have a tire or something out. I don't really know. It could be part of why it's got a little bit of a left pull. Let's try it again. Make sure it wasn't the road back there.

[00:08:53]Get up to 40.

[00:08:56]Yeah, little bit of a bounce at 40. It just feels like a tire or something.

[00:09:02]Might have to get one of them balanced.

[00:09:05]Nothing major though that I'm seeing.

[00:09:07]It's actually steering. Nice tight steering.

[00:09:13]Little bit of a left pull there or push, whatever you want to call it. They say you're supposed to say push. I say pull.

[00:09:19]I mean, you know what I'm saying? It's going that way. When I let go of the steering wheel, and at 40, it's got a little bit of a from a tire. It's soft. When I hit the brakes, those rotors are warped. Hey, you can hear it in my voice.

[00:09:38]What happens when I floor it?

[00:09:42]Oh, it pulls.

[00:09:44]It pulls good.

[00:09:47]Of course, what we're going to do next is picking out the flaws, chips, scratches, rust, dents. That is coming up here shortly. And that's very important so you know everything about the ride. I want you to see the interior flaws, the paint flaws, what's the bed look like.

[00:10:09]We'll just check it all out for you.

[00:10:12]Suspension's nice and smooth.

[00:10:21]I think the biggest thing it needs a brake job.

[00:10:25]All right, I will be back here in a moment, guys. Thanks for watching.

[00:10:39]Picking out the flaws, chips, scratches, rust, dents. Let's get started. Coming around the front. Bumper on this one's not perfect, but it still looks pretty good. A little spot there.

[00:10:51]See a little bit of paint fading behind that bumper. The grill on this one looks good. But your Chevy emblems got some cracks.

[00:11:00]Little hazy on the headlights. They could be buffed out. They have kits for that. Down the side, you got some chips.

[00:11:10]Chips here at the bottom.

[00:11:16]chips on the side. Of course, this is the original paint job, so it's crazy that it's in this good a shape, peeling.

[00:11:32]See the clear coat's kind of coming up there spot here.

[00:11:38]That sticker needs to come off. Clear coat coming off at the top.

[00:11:43]Little scuff midsection chip.

[00:11:50]Little spots there bubbling up.

[00:11:59]But the good thing is it is just clear coat and you got some chips in the midsection and on top.

[00:12:13]Little dirt.

[00:12:37]spots popping up.

[00:12:45]Checking out the roof.

[00:12:48]Might have to stand up in the back here just to really check it out. Hey, somebody actually took care of this roof. You got some scratches here. And you got some dents right there in the middle. Actually, it's just one little dent. Yep. I'm in the bed.

[00:13:08]Dura liner looks all right.

[00:13:13]I got to love the step side. I haven't had one in so long personally, but I used to have one. I really like how it you can just get up anywhere you want.

[00:13:27]Little hazy on those reverse lights.

[00:13:49]Sweet clear coat peeling again coming down this side.

[00:13:59]Side looks better.

[00:14:05]Still got some little chips spot here. It's messed up.

[00:14:18]Chips in the front head section.

[00:14:36]spot up top.

[00:14:50]Little dirt there. It should come off.

[00:15:00]Chipped in the front.

[00:15:21]scuffs on the door there and around that front window.

[00:15:32]It's in great shape.

[00:15:35]Overall, really clean truck for the year. Interior is pretty awesome, too.

[00:15:40]Can't complain much.

[00:15:42]Bottom of your doors like new.

[00:15:47]Edges and seals all in great shape.

[00:15:52]Back seat good. Headliner also good.

[00:16:09]Little worn here on the seat. common dash piece can be replaced. It is kind of the clips there are not clipping anymore. It needs some clips. But it's still how it was supposed to be.

[00:16:32]This seat's in great shape, too. It's not all messed up.

[00:16:38]Glove box definitely messed up. It's It's still staying up. It's not my bag holding it up. You see it's weebly wibble weeble wobbling.

[00:16:52]Cup holder is good. Ashtray is just spotless.

[00:16:56]They ain't been smoking in here.

[00:17:01]Little cracks.

[00:17:11]Start it up.

[00:17:19]Looking good.

[00:17:47]Nice and quiet. Engine's running great.

[00:17:57]The hood does have some little scarring, little chips and scratches there, but mostly it's in great shape, especially for a 98 model.
