You guys built some of them better than others. My '86 C20 Burb still has the original dual exhaust and is quiet as can be going down the road. No wind noise at all unless it's a REALLY windy day. Must not have been built on a Friday or Monday, eh?

My lifted K20 Burb really doesn't have wind noise, but does have a lot of tire noise.

My lifted K30 is really pretty quiet, just some tire noise and some rattles normal for a truck pushing 35 years old.

My little '84 C10 is one noisy SOB. The left vent window has been really noisy for years, just the other day I crammed some sticky-back weatherstripping into it and it made a big difference. But I still hear the exhaust and a ton of road noise.

I haven't driven my K5 in so long that I don't remember how noisy it might be.
