Does anyone know the break down on how many of each model was built? I have heard 53000 but does that include the M1009's and M1008's?

I can shed some light on the Canadian Forces numbers as follows:
total 491 all models
total Cargo with winch 38 ECC 123525
total Cargo with troop heater 43 M-1008A1 I believe these were also equipped with the radio rack in the cargo bed
total M-1010 65 ECC 123527
total (M-1028) ? 17 Fitted with CDN radio pod in place of cargo bed ECC 123528
total Cargo (M-1008) 310
all vehicles were purchased new from GM, all trucks were disposed of with exception of the M-1010 by 1994-95 much to our disappointment

So these would have been a separate contract im assuming for GM outside of the 53'000 supposedly built for the U.S. Army?
