Does anyone besides me remember "WhiteGMC" commercial trucks? From what I recall, they were made from approximately 1988 to 1995, and looked identical to Volvo trucks of the same period. What's really strange (assuming these trucks indeed were made by Volvo) is that Ford later bought Volvo, even though GM buying Volvo would have made more sense.

It's worth pointing out that Ford never owned Volvo Trucks. The Volvo Group sold Volvo Cars to Ford Motor Co. in 2000; Ford sold Volvo to Zhejiang Geely Holding Group in 2009.

The Volvo Group remains an independent business today, manufacturing trucks, buses, construction equipment, and marine engines.
