Re: How rare is the GMC Sierra Grande?

I'll be the odd man out here, but this is my 72 Sierra ( Not Sierra Grande ).
These are all great trucks you have and I know how crazy all these names and options seem to be for someone who hasnt messed with these trucks, but if you stick with the option codes and not names that is the way to stay consistant. Typically there were 3 levels of interior in the 67 & 68 trucks and also the 69 & 70 trucks. 71 & 72's added the 4th level option ( YE9 ) which is Cheyenne Super or Sierra Grande ( Same option and same equipment just different brand name ). This isnt anything new for guys who have messed with these trucks for years but I have seen nearly identical trucks that have options itemized on the option sticker and not. In otherwords all YE9 optioned, fleet side, Cheyenne Super and Sierra Grande trucks come std. with options BX2 ( lower mldng ) and B85 ( Belt mldg ). Even though it is standard with the option some plants listed it on the option sticker and some didnt. It is hard to follow but very interesting.
