Can't get no respect- the G749

[Bob Phillips]

Chris is correct. I remember a roadworthy M211 sold at action a couple of years ago for close to the same price (mid 2ks) and there are lots of junkers on kijiji for 1500- 3000. I also admit my bias because I just like the old GMC s having owned and driven a couple many miles in the old days. They had a few faults that doomed them in the commercial market; they were underpowered, the front axle tended to slip before the axle drive engaged and by that time you might be stuck and the biggest issue was the automatic transmission that needed regular tinkering to stay functioning. Still, overall, a well designed and purpose built vehicle that was too many years ahead of the rest of the pack to find acceptance.
