OK, let me start off by saying this GMC Gas powered beauty is only available for purchase by the manliest of men (or women). My friend, if it was possible for a vehicle to sprout chest hair and a five o'clock shadow, this GMC would look like Tom Selleck. It is just that manly.
It was never intended to drive to the mall so you can pick up that adorable shirt at Abercrombie & Fitch. It wasn't meant to transport you to yoga class. No, if that's the kind of car you're looking for then just do us all a favor and stop reading right now. I mean it. Just stop.
This truck was engineered by 3rd degree ninja super-warriors in the highest mountains of Japan to serve the needs of the man that cheats death on a daily basis. They didn't even consider superfluous Nancy boy amenities like navigation systems (real men don't get lost), heated leather seats (a real man doesn't let anything warm his butt), or 4X4 (real men never get stuck).
The truck has an automatic transmission so if you're being chased by terrorists, you'll still be able to shoot your machine gun out the window and drive at the same time. It's saved my bacon more than once. There's a tow hitch to pull your 50 caliber anti-Taliban, self cooling machine gun.
My price on this legend is an incredibly low $6,950, but I'll entertain reasonable offers. And by reasonable, I mean don't walk up and tell me you'll give me $4,500 for it. That's liable to earn you a Burmese-roundhouse-sphincter-kick with a follow up three fingered eye-jab.
There's only 226k on this 2-wheeled (posi) hellcat from Planet Kickass. Trust me, it will outlive you and the offspring that will carry your name.
Now, go look in the mirror and tell me what you see. If it's a rugged, no holds barred, super brute he-man macho Chuck Norris stunt double, then contact me and we'll talk about a price over a nice glass of Schmidt while we listen to Johnny Cash.

Good one Carl.
- the ad had me making a reasonable offer, but just can't swap my man card for a 2x4 version & 1998 is my favorite year of Chev. pickup

Looks an awful lot like a dodge truck ad put up last November on Kijiji. Had to save it to my phone back then.

Bummer, the GMC ad guy is a copycat. I'm tempted to email him and tell him he's a loser...

He didn't even write his own ad.

Who's to say that the dodge ad is even the original reiteration of that; it is a pretty clever ad, can see why someone would want to copy it.

Good point. I won't email him (I was kidding anyway, I'm not the type to email guys and dump on them because of their ad!)

It's fun to read a crazy ad once in a while, just for variety.

Yea, beats boring old ads any day, not sure which I like more tho... this or the other one taking a stab at the oilfield workers coming from an oil heavy area myself. Even some of our guys have gotten laid off...

There was an ad on KiJiJi PEI a few months ago. A guy was selling "his" pet rock ... just a piece of rock ... not an offical store-bought rock from the '70s.
