I have read some post by other expressings how great Honda, Toyota, and other trucks are compared to Chevy and GMC. As I surfed the internet looking ar other Truck forums I am going to make a bold statement. The popularity of those "other" trucks are a fleeting thing. Convince me those "other" trucks will ever have the following of our trucks. I hear how great the quality and looks of those "other" trucks are...maybe so to some. But where will those trucks be in 25 plus years, Junk yards!! Also...when I grew up I cannot recall seeing Honda and Toyota dotting the rural landscape of the American roads. I cannot recall seeing those "other" trucks in the fields pulling stumps out of the fields, hauling grain and livestock, or pulling farm equipment and I don't think I ever will. Even when you look at the "other" era trucks built by Chevy and GMC...it's hands down to which truck has the most popularity. I have read many Truck magazine articles and I have never seen articles say that those other "trucks" have a timeless design that will match the 55-57 Chevy's. No...I don;t think so. So my friends when it come to popularity and collectability no other trucks will compare to the 67-72 Chevy/GMC Trucks!!! Those other trucks will never represent an America of yesteryear! Those other trucks will never represent the American family as they worked hard to put food on the family table! Those other trucks will never represent the cross section of America! When it come to what truck represent the transformation of the American Truck...it's a no brainer it's the 67-72 Chevy/GMC Truck!
