GMC Astro

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The GMC Astro, also known as the Chevrolet Titan, is a heavy-duty Class 8 cabover truck that was manufactured by the GMC Truck and Coach Division of General Motors from the 1969 to 1987 model years. Succeeding the F/D-series Crackerbox cabovers, the Astro was marketed by Chevrolet as the Titan, and was the largest cabover truck ever produced by General Motors. Following the 1980 model year Chevrolet exited the heavy-truck segment, and the Astro was marketed solely under the GMC brand until the 1986 Volvo-GM joint venture led to its discontinuation in 1987.
