The first generation of the C/K series is a range of trucks that was manufactured by General Motors from the 1960 to 1966 model years. Marketed by both the Chevrolet and GMC divisions, the C/K trucks replaced the Task Force generation of trucks. The first General Motors pickup trucks developed on a dedicated truck platform (no longer a derivative of the GM A platform), the C/K series included pickup trucks, chassis-cab trucks, and medium/heavy commercial trucks. Breaking from GM tradition, the 1960 truck line was not given a generational name by the company. As part of a new model nomenclature introduced by GMC, C denoted two-wheel drive vehicles and K is used for 4x4 drive layout. Replacing second-party conversions, 4x4 drive was offered as a factory-supplied option for the first time. Alongside pickup trucks, the C/K light truck line served as the basis of the fifth generation of the Chevrolet Suburban/GMC Carryall, which was marketed as either a truck-based wagon (SUV) or a panel van. Produced by multiple sites across the United States and Canada, the model line was also produced in South America. For the 1967 model year, GM introduced a second generation of the C/K, naming it the Action-Line series.
