We often refer to unmodified trucks like this 2004 GMC Sierra 1500 as "survivors", but the term really doesn't do this sharp-looking pickup justice. After nearly 20 years of service, its exterior - still in factory configuration - is looking sharp, with paint that still has a nice shine, clear window glass, and fresh-looking weatherstripping. Climb inside, and you'll be pleasantly surprised by the condition of the Dark Pewter interior. You'll find no tears on the cloth surface of the bench seat - in fact, you won't find signs of anything more than slight wear anywhere inside the doors and even the most heavily trafficked touch points are unusually clean. Take this Sierra out on the road and you'll quickly appreciate its reassuringly strong running condition, as well. Its 4.8-liter Vortech V8 is in great form, and it pairs with a 4-speed 4L60E automatic transmission to provide a rock-solid experience behind the wheel.
