IWDI. I drove a 1985 2WD GMC Sierra Classic in high school. It was my granddaddy’s truck and it had power windows and locks. I wish I’d have taken better care of it.

I would drive it, but I would not pay $20k for it.

There wasn't very much concern with aerodynamics in those days. The result is a blocky truck that's completely focused on function over form


This is how trucks should be. The luxury stuff these days is nice but it makes me sick putting a 10 dollar an hour employee on the farm in even the basic new models these days or old manager fully loaded hand-me-downs. I long for a basic single cab with no bells and whistles with a V8 engine, good suspension and towing packages. Anything close to basic like that is also cheap components and usually only V6

The C/K was known for being an affordable, reliable truck with a lot of practical features and a very robust engine lineup.


If auto companies were not run by idiots they’d reintroduce a truck fitting this specification then sit back and watch their sales explode like a thermonuclear warhead.
