predecessors. The new model "Workhorse" is GMC's brilliant M-135, a tactical vehicle that was evolved from all the experience obtained during the last war with more than a half-million GMC 6N6s.
The M-135 has GM's famed Hydra-Matic drive with eight speeds forward and two in reverse, and is powered by a new high-compression GMC 6-cylinder (302 cu. in.) gasoline engine developing 145 horsepower. The new model carries five tons hitting a top speed of 58 miles per hour, and can tow five tons, over, under or through almost any type of terrain.
With built-in sealing features and "snorkels," the GMC can travel submerged in water. On a test at Rainbow Springs, Fla., it bucked through dense jungle, knocking over trees up to four inches in diameter, and took to water like a fish. On winter maneuvers with 50 deg. below zero temperature, the M-135 again gave top performance.
Not even a 60 per cent grade can stop the mighty new GMC 6X6, whose six wheels include an automatic front wheel drive engagement which comes in when needed. With all these new features, the truck is one that GI drivers may count on to go virtually anywhere!
