Gmc History:
GMC can be traced to Max Grabowski when he established called the "Rapid Motor Vehicle Company" in 1901.Some of the earliest commercial trucks were designed by this company. The company was later purchased in 1909 by General Motors. It was meant to form the General Motors Truck Company. The GMC truck was also derived from this company. GM also purchased Reliance Motor Car Company. Rapid Motor and Reliance Motor were merged in 1911 and later in 1992 the marque "GMC Truck" was introduced. The GMC truck also produced 600,000 trucks for the US army for use in the second world war. In 1925, GM purchased the controlling interest in Yellow Coach, a bus manufacturer based in Chicago, Illinois which was founded by John D. Hertz. After purchasing the remaining portion in 1943, GM renamed it GM Truck and Coach Division, and it manufactured transit and inter-urban buses in Canada and the United States until the 1980s. GM faced increased competition in the late 1970s and 1980s and stopped producing buses soon after. In 1987, GMC later sold their bus models to Transportation Manufacturing Corporation and later NovaBus. Between 1962 and 1972, most GMC vehicles were equipped with quad-headlights, while their Chevrolet counterparts were equipped with dual-headlights. Starting in 1973, with GM’s introduction of the new "rounded line" series trucks, GMC and Chevrolet trucks became even more similar, ending production of GMC’s quad-headlight models, and setting the standard for the Chevrolet/GMC line of trucks for over thirty years. GM has recently begun a divergence in design between the two lines with the 2007 model Silverado’s and Sierras, which have slight differences in the shapes of their body panels and overall looks.
