Here's a blast from the past -- I grew up around trucks like this. Today's UCOTD is a 1987 Chevrolet Silverado K10.

That's the last year of the square body and the first of fuel injection. This truck has four-wheel drive and a long bed. The odo shows 71,000 miles but the owner thinks it's actually 171,000 miles.

The seller claims the truck runs and drives well and has been well-maintained, but it does have some minor issues with instrumentation and a little bit of rust.

It's driven daily, but also to car shows, and the owner wants $19,900. This truck is a Texan. Click here to check it out.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Nicest looking dash/gage cluster ever put in any PU truck. After all these years it still looks so good.

Turbo Is Black Magic I would probably bet billions on a $350,000 halo car… but insist on bucking all buying trends and build a sedan with an ugly rear and awkward proportions.What do the peasants know anyway.Also more letters and numbers for car names, probably spend another $300 million to buy the YKK trademark… I know most of the common folk associated those 3 magic letters with a zipper they broke last week…. But close your eyes and picture a generic midsize CUV… now say YKK… get it?!Also move headquarters locations again. Kensington PA comes to mind… it can only go up!

Ras815 It's a travesty that this is even allowed to carry the same 7er identity that the E23, E32 and E38 established.
V16 It's hard to believe that GM or Ford in 2024 can't or won't design a truly class leading sedan for the North American market.To cede the entire mainstream market to Japan and Korea is an embarrassment.
