Specifications reflect general manufacturer data for this model and may not reflect modifications or the current mechanical state of this unit.

Ideal For

The contractor or farmer hauling a skid steer or a small excavator who does not want to tow. Twenty feet of deck with a beaver tail loads low-clearance machines without ramps fighting you, and 23,900 lb GVW keeps it in reach of a lot of licence classes.

The air package — compressor, air seat, air ride rear — makes it a far more comfortable truck than the year suggests. Honest. Useful. Ready to work once the brakes are sorted.

The GMC Advantage

The GMC 6500 with a Cat 3126 is a well-known medium duty combination. The 3126 was Caterpillar’s first electronic mid-range diesel and it ran in everything from dump trucks to fire trucks and motorhomes, so knowledge and parts are widely available.

Paired with a six speed manual and hydraulic brakes, it is a mechanically simple truck. Two hundred and seventy-five thousand kilometres is not high mileage for this driveline.
