Intellichoice® Award for the Best Overall Value in Its Class �€"
1997 GMC Truck magazine-advertisement headline The ad referred to
above went on: The Intellichoice Award is particularly meaningful
because it's based on the true value of a pickup: the cost of
owning it for five years. Purchase price, depreciation, insurance,
maintenance, and fuel costs were all calculated. And our Sierra was
judged best in its class. The Sierra was largely unchanged for the
1998 model year. Offered here is an excellent, one-owner example of
this award-winning value: a 1998 GMC Sierra K1500 extended cab,
shortbed, 4-wheel-drive in white-and-tan over tan. The truck's
odometer shows 47,246 miles, or just over 2,000 miles per-year on
average. The overall exceptional condition of the pickup shows what
can result from a single owner's commitment to care and regular
servicing. The pickup's white paint retains its original shine
across every body panel, including the cargo box and tailgate. The
lower body's tan paint and stripe is virtually factory-perfect, as
are the 4x4 graphics on the rear fenders. Chrome bumpers, grille
trim, and factory-installed five-spoke, 16-inch alloy wheels (part
of the optional SLT package) mounted with Yokohama Geolander® tires
are all in excellent condition. Lighting lenses are clear and
un-cracked, and cabin glass is similarly free of damage. All
factory emblems-including the GMC badges in the front grille and
tailgate (as well as the Sierra badge) remain mounted. The cargo
bed features GM Commercial branded protective coverings as well as
a soft mat. A hitch-receiver and electrical connections for a
trailer are mounted below the rear step bumper. Added (and
removable) Lund® running boards assist entry to the cabin. The
truck's interior condition is exemplary. The light-tan leather
upholstery on the high-back seats has been meticulously maintained;
only light creasing is present on the front-seat cushions. The
storage compartment/armrest is as-new. The foldable rear seat
appears never to have been sat upon. All other interior surfaces
are undamaged, free of noteworthy signs of wear, and absolutely no
sign of damage. In the same way, the tan carpeting is clean and
very well-kept. The truck's dash (also tan) features driver-focused
instruments together with controls for the audio system (with CD)
and the HVAC controls (the air conditioning system blows cold)
located on the righthand side, surrounded by black for easy
legibility. All instrument and control markings are clear and
crisp, appearing virtually like new. Power window and door-lock
controls are mounted on the beautifully maintained door trim. The
automatic-transmission shifter is column-mounted while the
transfer-case lever is floor-mounted. The cabin headliner is free
of damage or discoloration and properly affixed. Under the hood,
the venerable 5.7-liter GMC V8-the powerplant in millions of GM
trucks-is centerstage in a well-maintained, extremely clean engine
bay. All related components are properly mounted; all wiring and
engine-cooling hoses properly routed. The engine has clearly
benefited from regular servicing. Viewed from below, the chassis is
complete and undamaged. Components are properly installed and
original. While the more than
