As much as it hurts some of us to admit, GMT800 (‘99-07 Chevy/GMC) trucks are pretty old by today’s standards. With three generations superseding it, it’s safe to say that this body style will be approaching “classic” status in short order. And as old as these trucks may now be considered, we bet you still see at least a handful of them every day - but probably none as clean as Daniel Pierce’s ‘06 GMC Sierra 3500.

But this isn’t just an old truck to Dan, as this GMC and he go way back. “My father bought the truck new in 2006, and had it until 2016 when I bought it from him. When he first bought the truck I was nine years old, so from then on my entire childhood was spent in that truck. Road trips, baseball games, even the first time my dad taught me to do donuts in the grass was in that truck. When the time came for him to sell it, I didn’t want to see it go to anyone else, so I sold the truck I already had and bought the dually from my dad.”
