"Breaker one-nine... you got the road hog here.... how about it?" The two CB radio antennas on this Chevrolet Bisonare a sure sign that a "good buddy" is behind the wheel of this magnificent behemoth. The Chevy Bison was introduced in 1977, and the all-new big rig featured a lightweight aluminum cab, fiberglass hood and a choice of diesel engines. Chevy exited the heavy truck business in 1981, marking the end of the Bison's short but memorable production run.

The GMC General (also known as the Chevrolet Bison) is a heavy-duty (Class 8) truck[1] that was assembled by the GMC Truck and Coach Division of General Motors from 1977 to 1987. The largest conventional-cab truck ever produced by the company, the product line replaced the C/M 90/9500 trucks.

The Chevrolet Bison was discontinued after 1980 as GM ended the marketing of Chevrolet heavy trucks. In 1986, General Motors entered a joint venture with Volvo to produce heavy trucks, leading GMC to end production of the General conventional and Astro cabover in 1987.[2]

The GMC General and Chevrolet Bison were assembled in Pontiac, Michigan at Pontiac Central Assembly (alongside the Chevrolet Bruin and GMC/WhiteGMC Brigadier). As of current production, the 1987 GMC General and Brigadier are the final Class 8 conventional-cab trucks produced by General Motors.

Similar in layout to the Ford LTL-9000, International Harvester Transtar 4300, and Mack Super-Liner, the Chevrolet Bison and GMC General are Class 8 conventional trucks. Produced with an all-aluminum cab built by Budd, the trucks were available in many different combinations.[3] Two hood configurations were offered (108-inch or 116-inch BBC); along with a day cab, a 34-inch sleeper cab was offered, along with a walk-in sleeper cab (introduced in 1985).[3]

While no gasoline engines were available, several diesel powerplants were available, with the Detroit Diesel 6-71 (later replaced by the 6V92) as the standard engine. Alongside the 6-71, a buyer could choose the Cummins N-series, or Detroit Diesel 8V71 and 8V92.[3] Following its introduction in the GMC Astro, the Caterpillar 3406 was introduced in 1982.[3]

When introduced in 1977, the Bison/General were available from dealers as vehicle gliders.[3] Essentially a complete truck with the exception of the engine, transmission, and rear axles, the incomplete vehicles were designed for a dual purpose: to either reinstall an existing powertrain in a new truck or to allow for further customization not available from a dealership.

Following the GMC General, Volvo GM produced the WhiteGMC WC/WI Class 8 conventional, introduced in 1980 as the White Road Boss 2, the model line was produced through 2000 in various forms as a White, WhiteGMC, Autocar, and Volvo.
