US GMC M135 2 1⁄2-ton truck

An evolution from their widely successful CCKW, General Motors' successor "Deuce and a Half" 2 1⁄2-ton M135 was classed as a substitute standard in the US Army after the REO M35 was standardized, and thus was employed in much smaller numbers, but the M135 was also widely used by the Canadian Army.

The six-wheel M135 cargo / personnel truck featured a 180 inch wheelbase with a single-wheel rear tandem and 11:00x20 size tires, necessitating a wheel well in the cargo bed for clearance. The M211 was identical except it had a dual-wheel tandem and smaller 9:00x20 tires. Other dual tandem versions produced were the M217 fuel tanker, M220 shop van, and M222 water tanker, plus the shorter M215 dump truck and M221 tractor with a 168 inch wheelbase. The M135 was the only 2 1⁄2-ton truck of the era designed with an automatic transmission. The transmission had 4 speeds and 2 ranges, with a single range transfer case.
