Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: The $48,500 Chevrolet Cheyenne Pickup?
Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: The $48,500 Chevrolet Cheyenne Pickup?-March 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:10:19

We now know that 77% of you don't like that price tag, but how about a genuine, no-doubt-about-it GM classic truck… at nearly twice the price?

Back in '72, the Cheyenne option package on Chevy's half-ton pickups got you a nice plush bench seat in La-Z-Boy-grade vinyl, extra trim, sound insulation, gleaming chrome exterior trim, and all manner of snazzy comfort and styling upgrades… which, of course, still resulted in a fairly spartan truck by today's luxo-truck standards. A frame-off-restored short-box Cheyenne with four-wheel-drive, four-on-the-floor manual transmission, and hounds-tooth upholstery? We'll take it! Oh, wait- is the seller really asking $48,500 What the heck, maybe it really is that rare and valuable… or maybe we need to visit Booth Number Two for some reality-enhancement assistance here. What do you say?

[, go if the ad disappears. Thanks to for the tip!]

Focus in on an SVT Ford for $3,995!
Focus in on an SVT Ford for $3,995!
Myopia being one of the most common eye problems in the world, many people might not be able to focus on today's contender. That's too bad, because dismissing this SVT Ford would be very shortsighted. The current American Ford Focus is a car that's living on borrowed time. And anybody...

Flame-On With a $2,600 RX7 Convertible!
Flame-On With a $2,600 RX7 Convertible!
The Wankel engine has always proved that Mazda marches to a different beat. As it's getting toward convertible weather, has a flambe-painted '89 drop-top at a price you might find hard to beat. Yesterday's pulled out a shocker- a 55% Nice Price win. And that despite the twin challenges of...

2010 Porsche 911 Carrera S: First Drive
2010 Porsche 911 Carrera S: First Drive
Driving from Los Angeles to a wedding in San Diego is normally a two-hour/125-mile trip, but when you're driving a Porsche 911 Carrera S, detours are mandatory. In my case, it took five days and 1,404 miles. Most automotive travel writing is long, dull, and full of babbling prose aimed...

Screaming Chicken-Trumping Firehawk for $12,500!
Pontiac's dispatched almost as many screaming chickens as Colonel Sanders. But despite that avian connection, today's firebird is a hawk, not a hen, and you have to decide if its price is fair or fowl. A pale and winter-worn 76% of you were ready to welcome spring by dropping the...

2011 Ford Mustang: First Drive
2011 Ford Mustang: First Drive
For the last year, every Mustang review has essentially read, "an involving, exciting sports car, but it's slower than the Camaro." In the muscle market, it's power, not handling, which sells. Luckily, the fixes that. Moar power! Full disclosure: Ford wanted us to drive the 2011 ‘Stang so badly they...

For $11,500, This Could Be The ZR-1 For You
For $11,500, This Could Be The ZR-1 For You
C4 is a plastic explosive with a detonation velocity of 18,000 mph. Today, has a C4 Corvette, and its Lotus designed LT-5 engine makes punching the gas pedal nearly as explosive. There was something hinky going on with yesterday's . The price seemed extremely low to everyone who didn't already...
