The GMC is driving down one lane dirt road hauling a trailer and for about a glimpse they show a F250 hauling a trailer following behind him. Voiceover says something like "try as they might, they can't catch us" then there's no more F250. I think comparing 'their' company against 'ours' shows a lack of sureness in their industry. And the fact that they showed very little of 'us' shows that they are scared! Deep down they know they're wrong

 

I love GMC advertising.

"Professional Grade"

And yet they are mechanically identical to Chevy.

So is Chevy professional grade as well?

If so, why do I buy a GMC?

In today's day and age, GM needs to kill GMC and put all trucks out there as Chevy.

Merc/Lincoln dealers sold Ford trucks for years without the need for Mercury pickups and cargo vans.

 

Good point J-150...

FoMoCo attempted to put a Lincoln truck on the market a couple of years ago (hence, the Blackwoods) but flopped miserably as they couldn't move them.... then again, a $50K truck is hard to swallow for a lot of people...

 

Chevys are great grocery grabbers or long haulers, but anyone who says thier profesional grade cheby can work like a Ford is either ignorant or only fooling themselves.

 

wonder what that would do to total sales and if it would be enough to knock ford off as #1 in sales. makes you wonder why they dont do that or if they dont think making that claim means anything.

its a commercial, they reason they show very little of the ford is because they paid for it to sale chevy trucks, why would you show the competion?

 

Hey, I own a GMC and im perfectly happy with it.

IMO theres nothing wrong with them, I actually like them better than chevy.

Ford is still the best though

 

I've had 2 GMC S-15 Jimmys over the years and to be perfectly honest there are some mechanical differences between the GMC and Chevy. For example I know for a FACT that not one cigarette lighter from any S-10 truck or blazer would fit in my dang S-15 cigarette lighter hole. The S-10's lighters have a smaller diameter and just rattle around in there. It must be the "professional grade" difference.

We just bought a new GMC. It is far supperior to the Ford congruent to it.
