I agree with what everyone else says about the GMC. These coaches were made when people took pride in their work & are basically over-engineered with dependability & ease of repair in mind. GMCs were made to last 35+ years(most modern coaches seem to be made to keep the RV shops in business). When the GMC came out, it was designed to be repaired at any GM dealership and not at specialty shops if there were any. I have had people look at mine who commented on how amazed they were that they could know their way around the mechanicals. They were built at the time as a showcase to what GM was capable of doing & how well they could do it. e, if you owned a SOB of this vintage you wouldn't have nearly as much to work with and it would cost you a lot more to get it back to top shape. Also, the number of GMCs still on the road is a testimony to how well they are made, as the Registry will attest to. The SOB manufacturers can only dream of having numbers that
good even after 10 years, much less 35...
