When I was in the market to buy my first new truck in 1972, I got quotes from both a Chevy dealer and a GMC dealer. The Chevy would be a short wide half ton four wheel drive with a 350 V8. The GMC would be similar but with a dealer-installed 351 V6. Unfortunately, the GMC was much more expensive so I went with the Chevy instead. Two years later it was stolen and I never saw it again.
