Priced to sell! This is a 1976 GMC 4 Door 1 Ton Dually in good condition. I bought this truck 4 years ago from a guy that had used it hauling race cars to local tracks. I have been told that the engine had been re-done presumably by that person and it runs great. You can tell when it is running that it has had a slightly larger cam put in along with an edelbbrock intake manifold. It is a Big Block 454 and has a 4 barrel carburetor, plenty of engine power. It has dual exhaust with mufflers and sounds great. The odometer shows 69,300 and I'm not sure if that is actual miles or not since it only reads in the tens of thousands not hundreds. The title just shows exempt on the mileage. Since I have had the truck, it has been re-painted both inside and out, the seats have been recovered in black vinyl, and the floor has been covered in a roll in bed liner. The insert bed liner has kept the inside of the bed in great shape over the years. I have replaced the radiator, starter, alternator, and battery all within the last several years so you shouldn't have to worry with those going bad anytime soon. The air conditioner had been un-hooked before I purchased and although I thought I would hook it back up I never got around to doing it. As shown in the picture, the Air-conditioning unit is still attached to the firewall. It has the brake adjustment built in and ready to pull any trailers with electric brakes. It also has a hitch with the capability of pulling any camper or any trailer. Someone had installed the rails to a fifth wheel into the bed but I never used them nor is there a fifth wheel hitch with the truck. The rails are under the bed liner. All of the outside lights work on this truck and looks great of a night. The four doors have been a great use allowing additional storage room and room for others to ride. The back seat does flip up allowing minor storage behind it. It has two gas tanks and both work with the flip of a switch under the dash. I have installed a new Sony cd player/radio with two 6x9 Sony Xplode speakers with a remote and they sound good. The dash had been re-covered before my purchase and the head-liner had also been replaced as well. The truck looks good, especially considering the paint is only a few years old. It has had an aftermarket grill put on it, louvered hood, windshield overhang, chrome window rain guards, and a new steering wheel all of which add to the appearance of the truck. There are a few places where the paint has chipped off such as around the back window and right above the rain guards (see picture) which would be typical. The truck is not show quality but it does look good with no major flaws. I wanted the truck to look good while being able to perform the work duties without worrying about every little thing. The truck has had 2 coats of base paint and 4 coats of clear coat. There are some rust spots working their way through on both chrome bumpers (see pictures) but overall this truck looks great rolling down the road. I probably only put about 3,000 - 4,000 miles on this truck each year. I tried to list everything I could think of, but if you have any questions, or would like more pictures of anything specific, don't hesitate to call (812) 631-2914 and ask for Derek or send me an email message. If you are a first time buyer, call or email before bidding just to confirm that you are a serious buyer and not a scam. I will accept paypal, cashiers check, or cash. I do have this truck sitting out locally and reserve the right to cancel this listing if sold before the auction ends. Thanks for bidding and I'm sure whomever gets the truck will enjoy it.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
GM able to add diesel to half-ton pickups if market demands it
Wed, 18 Sep 2013A few years ago, the trend in half-ton pickup trucks was ultra-luxurious trims, often with the words "limited" or "platinum" tacked on after the model name. That was well and good, but we like this latest fad a lot more - diesel engines. First, Ram came to bat with a 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel for the 1500, then Nissan announced that the next-generation Titan would be getting an eight-cylinder Cummins diesel.
Now, word is coming in from AutoGuide that General Motors can, if it so chooses, drop a diesel engine into its light-duty trucks. The plot thickens, though, as it turns out that said diesel would be the same one Ram is using for its truck. According to AG, that engine comes from VM Motori, which GM owns a sizable chunk of. Therefore, GM can snag the 3.0-liter, V6 diesel for its trucks just as easily, if not more easily, than Ram.
If it's so easy for the Detroit-based manufacturer to access the engines, why not offer the a diesel-powered Sierra and Silverado from the start, then? According to GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson, The General doesn't seem so confident in a diesel pickup outside of its HD offerings. According to Wilkinson, the cost-benefit ratio doesn't line up for customers, thanks to both the impact on the truck's sticker price and the higher price of diesel, in general (the national average for a gallon of diesel is 43 cents more than a gallon of 87-octane unleaded).
GM will compensate SUV owners for fuel-economy error [UPDATE]
Mon, May 23 2016General Motors will offer debit cards to owners of some of its crossover SUVs after it was discovered that GM overstated the vehicles' fuel economy on window stickers, Automotive News says. GM will offer reimbursements to about 135,000 customers that are worth between $450 and $1,500 each. Some owners will also have the option of being provided with an extended warranty free of charge instead of the debit card. GM overstated fuel economy on about 170,000 vehicles by one to two miles per gallon because of what it has said was an inadvertent error stemming from not factoring the impact of emissions-related hardware into the EPA window-sticker figures. As a result, GM put a temporary stop-sale on the Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave before switching out the window stickers on about 60,000 vehicles. Automotive News says letters and debit cards will be sent out next week, and Reuters is estimating that the reimbursement program will cost GM about $100 million. With automakers ranging from Hyundai/Kia to Ford to, more recently, Volkswagen and Mitsubishi being ensnared by emissions or fuel-economy-rating issues, GM is working quickly to address the problem. For those curious, the reimbursement totals, factoring in current gas prices, the SUVs' combined fuel economy, and typical driving of about 12,000 miles a year, will provide between three and 12 months worth of free gas for those drivers (the models get either 17 or 18 miles per gallon combined, depending on front- or four-wheel-drive configuration). While about 135,000 customers will be reimbursed, Automotive News says the fleet buyers of about 35,000 crossovers haven't been addressed yet. UPDATE: GM spokesman James Cain, in an e-mail to Autoblog on Sunday, confirmed that the company will reimburse about 135,000 customers. Purchase customers will be given the option of a pre-paid debit card or a 48-month/60,000-mile protection plan, while lease customers will be offered the pre-paid debit cards. Most of the cards will have a value of between $450 and $900 on them. "We want all of our customers to have a great ownership experience, so we designed this reimbursement program to provide full and fair compensation in a simple, flexible, and timely manner," he wrote.
