Find Used GMC Cars in Utah
GMC is a division of General Motors.
It was originated by Max Grabowski when he
established "Rapid Motor Vehicle Company" in 1901.
This company was a pioneer in some of the earliest
commercial trucks. This company was later purchased
in 1909 by General Motors. It was meant to form the
General Motors Truck Company. In 1996 GMC dropped
the word Truck from its name. The GMC truck produced
600,000 trucks for the US army for use in WWII. At
one time GMC produced commercial buses, but with
increased competition in the late 1970s and 1980s
they stopped. Today GMC is a brand name that is used
on trucks, vans, and SUVs marketed by General
Motors. In 2007 GMC was the second largest selling
vehicle in its division that GM produces. For the
most part, GMC offers the same used trucks out there
under the Chevrolet brand. The difference is that
GMC trucks are positioned as the Professional Grade
versions of the equivalent Chevrolet vehicles, as
they offer more options and standard features than
Chevrolet. Used GMCs are usually sold by dealers
along with Buick or Pontiac. In 2007, GMC introduced
the Acadia, its first crossover SUV. GMC also
manufactures trucks for Budget Truck Rental, along
with other companies, Ford, Navistar International
and Isuzu. GMC has now celebrated its centenary year
in existence.
Utah Used GMC Cars
GMC has thirty manufacturing
facilities in the United States alone. In addition
to the manufacturing facilities in the U.S., GMC has
an additional thirty-three companies in 33 different
countries around the world. The company now employs
more than 284,000 individuals. GMC has its
headquarters in the Renaissance Center in Detroit,
Michigan and an incredible assortment of used trucks
and cars under this name can be found. The current
GMC used trucks include the Sierra, the Acadia, the
Yukon, and the Envoy. Used SUVs under the GMC name
can also be found.
In the past, GMC and Chevrolet sport-utilities: the
Blazer and the Envoy (Jimmy) were for the most part
the same. But since 2002, a used GMC version has its
own distinct character. The used GMC Envoy does use
the same chassis and powerful inline six-cylinder
engine as the Chevy TrailBlazer, but besides that
the body styling, interior, and available air
suspension are all unique. There are two models of
the used Envoy, the SLE and SLT. Both have four
doors, come with 2WD or electronic 4WD, and are
powered by the Vortec 4200 engine, a 4.2-liter
inline six-cylinder producing 270 horsepower. This
is the best engine by far in its class, which
includes many V8s. The differences in the used SLE
and SLT are in trim and options. The used SLE comes
with body-color moldings, cloth seats and sections
of brushed nickel on the console and instrument
panel. The used SLE has brushed nickel, leather and
wood interior with nickel trim rings. This used
vehicle also has an eight-way power adjustable seat.
Seat position memory is standard on the SLT and
heated seats are optional. You also get headlamp
washers, driver information center, TravelNote
digital recorder, rain-sensing wipers, and
light-sensitive outside mirrors with turn signals.
This used GMC has found a perfect middle ground
between truck and sedan, the 2002 Envoy Base 4WD
4-Dr Sport Utility L6 has a retail price of $3,350 -
$12,625.
