Re: Need Help On Some History

Seems kind of sporatic ATM. One thing I'd go on about is the beginning of trucks in GM, which I believe all started with the GMC Truck Co. that GM bought. Heart Beat of America was in the 80s.

One thing to mention is this was the first generation of GM trucks at least to really start gearing towards comfort, safety, luxury, and women drivers. I've seen some old 67-72 ads aimed at the woman of the house hold. Make mention of GM's IFS and coil spring rears that gave better ride and handling than the FURDs of the day.

Oh right, thought you were playing tricks or something...

Carry on.
