I always thought GMC was a luxury Chevy truck. Something like the Cougar being a luxury Mustang.

When Chev and GMC S-10/ 15 trucks first came out, there was a Seattle Buick /GMC dealer owner that i knew. I asked him the difference between a Chevy S-10and a GMC S-15. His response “the S-15 is 5% better” Today i thought of his quick answer my question, shouldn’t it have been 50% better.
Guess he wasn’t the company accountant 😀

No, PSB, actually the dealer was correct. He was comparing the Chevy/GMC to a Ford Truck. The Chevy was/is 10% as good a truck. The GMC is only slightly better. Luckily they weren’t compared to a Toyota back then or they would have been called a Chevy S .010. True story.
