Most publications are dominated by car people, not truck people, so article comes as no surprise. The writer, IMO, is obviously a car person, and into car styling. Most classic trucks shown got there styling hues from car lines up to the mid 50's and the '67-'72 was a continuation of this styling. IMO, the '64-'66 and the '73-'79 trucks are a rare exception to the car styling rule at GM. I don't consider anything past 1980 as a classic.
