Why Are These "Muscle Trucks" Selling For Over $100k? | 3,000 MILE 1990 Chevrolet 454 SS

In this week's video, we have Gary Klutt take a look at this highly desirable 1990 Chevrolet 454 SS that has only 3,000 miles on it!! Gary revives this muscle truck, takes it out for a spirited drive, and then discusses values and why some of these trucks are trading for over $100K!

The Chevrolet 454 SS pickup was introduced in 1990 as GM’s new muscle truck with power and torque that was the pinnacle of sports truck performance in its time. Taking a drivetrain from the heavy-duty assembly line, Chevrolet decided to add a huge engine (and subsequent power) to the muscle truck with a fuel-injected 454 CI big-block V-8 monster that offered 230 HP and 385 lb-ft of torque. The Chevrolet 454 SS caused a ripple effect in the truck market that spawned some healthy competition from its competitors, including Ford’s Lightning.

This 1990 Chevrolet 454 SS Pickup was sold new at Charles Lee Chevrolet-Oldsmobile Inc in Rockwood, Tennessee. As per the original window sticker affixed to the window, this example is outfitted with air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, tinted glass, a tilt steering wheel, electronic speed control, an engine oil cooler, transmission cooler, power front discs, power drums in the rear and more. The original owner purchased this example with the intention of keeping it in showroom new condition. Stored in a climate-controlled environment, this 454 SS looks like it did the day it left the showroom floor and shows only 3,077 miles on the odometer. Still wearing its more than three-decade-old BF Goodrich tires wrapped around the original 15-inch wheels, this sports truck wouldn’t look out of place in any collection. This 454 SS comes documented with original Window Sticker, owner's manuals, owner’s materials package and original paperwork when it was bought new.
