1996 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE

Description

This 1996 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE has a premium and well-respected style that makes for a great classic truck. And as you look through the details, you can also see this fuel-injected V8 machine is still ready to get to work. So no matter if you like the loaded interior or fully-lined bed, it's the overall style that makes this one irresistible.

The Light Autumnwood Metallic shows the right signs of being the factory application. The metallic glow continues to look good in the sunshine, especially with the chrome bumper and full trim. The overall impression is a cool-looking truck that still has a work-ready attitude. For example, the full-length black pinstripe coordinates with the attractive liner paint in the bed and black plastic caps protecting the bed tops. The upgraded headlights and tail lights let everything shine brighter. And the proper trailer hitch with a wiring plug and trailer brake controller means this one knows how to tow the toys.

The leather interior is clean and attractive. It's long-haul comfortable thanks to front bucket seats with the driver's one power adjusting. You also get a tilt steering column, airbag, and full gauge package. It's loaded with all the best features, like power windows, power mirrors, anti-lock brakes, cruise control, an AM/FM/cassette stereo, and the full back seat of an extended cab truck. You may choose to update details or restore the air conditioning, but the overall impression is quite an inviting pickup. There are nice details that you don't see on many trucks of this era, like heated seats. It's a reminder that an SLE is the top trim. And there are well-placed upgrades, like the overhead console that houses the CB radio and radar detector.

Under the hood is the correct-style 5.7-liter V8. This fuel-injected Vortec V8 has a clean look, and the engine bay shows good care, right down to the working hood light. The truck's odometer is believed to represent the full actual mileage. But when you know the reputation of this generation of GMCs, then you know they love to run as long as diesels. That's why this one continues to feel solid, confident, and ready for action. Power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive are all about keeping this Sierra comfortable for journeys near and far.

This is a true classic truck that continues to deliver true capabilities and usefulness. So if you want a GMC for work and play, call today!
