I have been a Chevrolet/GM man all my life thanks to my Dad. Growing up on the farm in NY he had a 1969 C10 2WD as long as I could remember. I have no idea how many miles he put on it but remember him talking about the 4 engines he went through(started with 2-6 cyl before swapping to 327 V8s. It had a HD 4 spd manual. The frame was welded/reinforced many times due to NY winters until it couldn't be done anymore. In winter, he would put wheel chains on and a 1000 lb cement block in the bed. That old truck would go many places no 4WD could when it had to. Hauled anything he needed to year round for our 105 cow dairy farm and his tractor hobby. I learned to drive with that truck doing farm errands before I had a license. By the time I got a license in 1988, Dad had replaced it with 2 trucks. A 1972 C10 with 3 spd on the column as a go to town for parts/supplies truck and a 1978 GMC K35 High Sierra 4WD dually with stake racks for the heavy stuff. That old GMC is history now too but I would put it up there against ANYTHING made today by ANYBODY. They couldn't touch what I've seen that truck do in its prime. If I had the funds, I would love to have a new Chevy Duramax/Allison dually with trailer to haul the ACs around because I believe them to be very stout and good looking trucks as well.
Alas, for now, my daily commuter is my 1996 S10 4cyl/5 spd 2wd plain jane I bought brand new and has faithfully served me all these years. So, if you'll excuse me I need to go do her 189,000 mile service so she is ready for Monday AM to start yet another week.
