one thing you could mention is that, previously trucks were pretty basic and now (with the 67-72s) we start seeing more 'creature comforts' and using trucks as transportation rather than solely as a tool for work. how many different types of suspension were available for these guys? different engines? paint and trim options? that's also when we saw the blazer come to life, a resonably popular SUV nowdays... Truckin' magazine (2003, May, pg 280)just had a brief article about the 'classic' trucks, and how they were gaining popularity with a newer crowd of cutomizers (it also has a pic of 67 which looks pretty spiffy)...
