The Chevy Kodiak originally premiered in 1980 alongside the GMC Topkick as part of the automaker's fleet of medium-duty trucks. Like most American trucks, it came with the front-engine design and top-quality parts, and it was available in both rear and four-wheel drive. First generation versions of the Chevy Kodiak displayed a large, distinctive front-head grille framed by four square headlights. The first generation lasted until 1990, when a slightly updated version of the model appeared. This time around, the Kodiak kept the same platform but used the cab from the GMT400 trucks and featured a lot of power-enhancing parts under the hood.

In 2003, the Kodiak was redesigned off of the same GM platform used for the brand's line of vans. The drivetrain was upgraded with a Duramax diesel V8 engine as well as an Allison 1000 transmission. 5500 and 4500 variants received bolstered front axles, while the 3500 was given independent front suspension. A few years later, Chevy released the Kodiak C4500, which was outfitted with more up-to-date technological accessories, such as a deluxe stereo and a DVD navigation system.

Chevy is known for developing solid, reliable trucks that offer enough comfort and refinement to attract a wide demographic of drivers, which is how the Kodiak remained in production. However, in 2007 GM began to look into selling off its lineup of medium-duty trucks, but it would be another two years before the Kodiak stopped being assembled. While it had been rumored that the Kodiak might pop up again under the Isuzu banner, so far the model has not been reproduced. Still respected, the Kodiak can be considered a truck worthy of the Chevy name.

Just like the bear that rumbles through the landscape, the Chevy Kodiak prowls the roadways. This burly yet stylish truck has never been shy about what it is capable of, as this machine is known to handle it all. The Chevy Kodiak boasts the kind of versatility that has defined the new generation of large vehicles and its drivers are loyal to the cause. Truly one of the most recognizable and dependable trucks in recent memory.

Farewell Party for the Chevrolet Kodiak

Last Monday, General Motors announced that it's going to wind down the medium-duty truck operations by August 2009, meaning that after that point both the Chevy Kodiak and the GMC TopKick won't be produced anymore.

In accordance with the sales figures from the two truck lines that extend through May 2009, the Topkick sales have dipped 69% and the Kodiak sales are down 48%; the decrease spelled doom for the vehicles. Not that GM wasn't trying to save the trucks. Two years ago, General Motors announced that it was going to sell the medium-duty truck business to Navistar International. Still when the economy slid over the past few years, the financial stability of both companies started to look pretty grim. No surprise that the deal to sell off the brands failed. As GM filed for bankruptcy on June 1 and announced the restructuring, a lot of brands were expected to be sold or discontinued, which actually happened. In the past week, General Motors announced it's selling Opel and Saturn, and now the Chevy Kodiak and GMC TopKick are leaving us for good. The last Kodiak is scheduled to be produced on July 31, 2009.
