I've come to like trucks with base or mid-level trim that have choice selected options more than a full-tilt bells & whistles Cheyenne Super. Love those odd combos and love those trucks ordered by a guy who you can tell knew exactly what he wanted and what he didn't. Not only did GM give a wide array of choices in options with few restrictions, but these trucks best represent the transition from trucks being workhorses to also making great personal vehicles. Many truck guys were slow to accept the "softer" options, like automatic transmission, power steering, carpet, and such. "That stuff has no place on a truck", was commonly heard. And you could see that in how many trucks were ordered. When it came to appearance that group was split. Many liked a handsome truck and they took it easy enough on them that they wanted trim. You'll see that in a base trim truck that got trim, maybe 2-tone, a/c, full foam seat, and other niceties. But no power steering, manual transmission, and rubber floor covering. I've seen base model trucks with more options than a Cheyenne Super, including anything they could order that a Super came with. They wanted the nice stuff but were hard headed about what they didn't want. I remember hearing the men talk.
