Very Nice...

Is it a company policy that all the trucks have damaged front bumpers? lol...just about every one was damaged in some way.

 

It is neat to see a whole fleet of GMCs though.

We have all GMC's at work, but theres only 4 of them.

I know its just what happens to them, I've never personally damaged one (except a front bumper), but some people just don't care about them (most damage occurs on night shifts), its funny because those same people who wreck them complain about how junky GM is! I'm sure the same thing would happen with ford or dodge though. It doesn't really take much of a hit to cave a bumper in nowadays.

 

Sometimes we do use the 1 ton flat decks to "push" other trucks back to the shop if they break down in the field thats how the bumpers get dented on those.

first time I have ever seen a fleet of all GMC trucks, usually everyone goes with the Chevy's

We have a few chevys, (4 I think) but they are the oldest trucks we have. I'm not sure why its GMC only now, but it works for me! (I drive a GMC)

most fleets around here are ford super dutys with chevy following close behind, no gmc really :P but the kicker is most none fleet trucks on the roads are chevys lol....dodge fleets are none existant here,

My fleet consists of two chevies. I own 'em both.

 

 

However, my dad works at a company where their fleet consists of about 3,000 Freightliners and a few internationals and Vovlos.

Our company trucks are all Silverados. We have 3 of them. Two are GMT800's and one is a GMT900 2500. We don't use them for much. The one GMT800 is used for all the outside landscaping work and snow plowing. I think the other two are just driven on the roads.

wow... those trucks are beat up... about how long do those trucks last there?

 

at my job, my fleet consists of 5 2010 E350 box trucks with the 5.4 talk about gutless and they make some awful noises...

Its a coal port very nasty enviroment they last a few years some have been around for over 5 years, but those few survived have many different parts in them from trucks that didn't survive LOL

 

The dents happen within a few months (on the last batch one got dented in a week), and they sure get bagged on, but you know, they actually take it pretty well, the engine, transmissions and rear-ends last a long time, wheel bearings and front end parts not so much.

 

Alignment goes out the window within weeks but thats because of constant abuse :P
