The GMC motorhome was produced by the GMC Truck & Coach Division of General Motors for the 1973 through 1978 model years in Pontiac, Michigan, USA. It was the only complete motorhome built by a major auto/truck manufacturer producing what GMC hoped would be their halo vehicle. Part of the reason this vehicle is so different from other motor homes of the era is that it was not conceived as just a "

camper," but as a vehicle for comfortable travel as well. The design was radical for the day with front-wheel drive and a low profile, fully integrated body. At the time (as now), motorhomes were built by recreational vehicle manufacturers on bare frames and drivetrains supplied by a chassis manufacturer. GMC built the bodies and in most cases the interiors in-house, and designed the chassis and drivetrain to create a motorhome enclosure that could be adapted to a range of purposes. Empty shells were supplied to other RV manufacturers for upfitting the interiors and also to specialty manufacturers for a range of custom purposes ranging from mail delivery and mobile training facilities to people movers and ambulances. It was built in 23 and 26 feet lengths.

Two weeks after visiting the GMC rally in Dothan, Alabama I not only located a GMC in Houston, Texas but just as easily found a willing GMCer close by who would drive down to Sweet, Texas where the coach had been left on consignment. The gentleman got back with me, offering pictures, and a pretty th...

The "Chalet Royale" was Chevrolet's version of the GMC Motorhome. There are no notes in the GMPhotoStore files as to why the Chevrolet entry did not proceed beyond this July, 1972 clay model. Perhaps someone who worked on the program can provide additional information for GMPhotoStore. Credit: GMPhotoStore

GMC Motorhomes are known for their advanced air suspension and low center of gravity, making them the most comfortable and best handling RV's to this day.

Watch Out! This 600HP Motor Home is World Record Hungry

Hotwheels is a new sponsor with the goal increased to smash the world's fastest RV record over 140mph at in this retro GMC! All for a good cause: Fighting CMT disease! http://www.cmtfoundation.org

Some things just aren’t meant to go fast. A motor home is arguably one of them. This however is not your average motor home, rather it’s a six-wheeled, 600 horsepower GMC colossus and it’s very, very speedy indeed. Try an absolutely ripping 120.8 mph. So how does one even think to create such a bea…
