What do you guys think is the best year?

[Leonard60]

For me the 1972s I like the door panels. And it's the last year.

My favorites for lower trucks would be the 67-68 nose. My favorite for 4x4 trucks would be the 71-72 style. Im not a big fan of the 69-70 grills. Even though I own a GMC, overall four eyes are my least favorite noses

But all of that being said, Ive seen plenty of all styles (even 69-70, and four eyes haha) in all different modes that break the "mold" that I like most.

My thoughts exactly !!!
Well said CG

[OARNGESI]

My favourite is 70 but the most popular year is 68 followed by 72

[Alex V.]

It's certainly personal opinion. Cosmetically, '67 by far, but '71/2 had so many more available options and trim goodies that it's hard to ignore. I mean, in '67 big block, Longhorn, A/C, and (I think) 2-tone paint weren't available - to me those are all options that should be on the "quintessential" '67-72 pickup.

Funny as I know this is blasphemy... but I do not like the slant nose style of the '67-'68 rigs. '69-'72 for me on the hood design.

Blasphemy !!!!!!!!

[Canuckvetter]

For me it's the 67's for all the subtle differences.

[custom10nut]

Best year? All of them, of course.

[68bowtie]

it's impossible to choose! although i'm a little partial to 68's.

[TurboThrift]

can't beat a 67 if you're considering the smooth lines. Those trucks are wonderful, imo, lightly optioned or not!

[El Dorado Jim]

I dont like the tapered hoods that much, I like my 72,but I mounted a rearview mirror from a 71 in it, dont like the glue on ones.I like the 69-70 grilles better, but I got a good deal on my 72..I really like the GMC front ends, wish I had one.....

[71threequarterton]

I stick to my first comment about the 67 cab but I think 4x4s look best from 71,72.

[Voodoo556]

Sloped hood and the simple clean grill of the 67-68's seems to give these trucks an older, nostalgic look over the boxy hood and bulkier grills of the '69-'72's.
IMO, for a 2wd truck the short beds look rad and a lifted 4wd looks best in a long bed.

[j_cst_10]

My first truck was a 1969 CST and thought that was the best looking style.

Then I replaced it with a 72 Cheyenne Super 20 and liked that one even better.

Then I bought a 68 K10 and liked that even better!

Then realized I actually like all of them.

All one of the best classics IMO. Personally, I'd only prefer a few monster Mopars and Judge on sticks. TA or say a Boss wouldn't be bad either.... Anybody watch Counting Cars? A guy had two Mopars built, a Roadrunner and I think Coronet.......Beautiful. The wife will be driving this. Husband said he might actually get laid, maybe 3-4 times.........Ha! http://www.imcdb.org/i791039.jpg

I've own several of these trucks, and I love them all. But I think the one I liked the best was my 70 GMC. Didn't like the brakes, it was fast but it was tough to slow it down. but I loved the look of it. I only sold it because it had a lot of rust, and my 71 Chevy didn't. One of these days I hope to get another Four Eyes.

[canuckian]

For 4wd, I like my 72. most modern incarnation of the truck plus the forward design hood IMHO looks better on 4wd trucks
For 2wd, I like the 68. My dad had a 68 (the truck that started it all for me)so I'm kinda partial to them. If I ever find the one I want it'll be lowered and I find the slant nose makes it look a little sleeker than the later hoods.

[HO455]

MINE!!

[TCLARK]

I have a 67 on a 72 frame, only problem is a blind spot........I can live with it !

[Stephen717]

Probably a 71 for options. But personally I like my 69, my grandfather had one, my dad had one with 4 eyes, and now I'm the third generation​in our family to have the exact same year truck that they grew up with

[Richard]

Partial to 72's because that is what I rode around in growing up. Father had a K10 custom deluxe purchased new. Unfortunately it was totaled in a roll over. My first vehicle was a 72 K20 with a rod sticking out of the block. Put a motor into it in auto shop. Now have my current 72 purchased well over 10 years ago near my home town from the shop school teacher.

[In The Ten Ring]

I grew up in my truck, a 1972. I think the "egg crate" grill is attractive but it is also very fragile.

All things being equal, I would have to say a 1967 is the most attractive all all the years.

[46stude]

1963
Still has the vintage dogleg windshield, but easy to update the suspension.

Oh, I'm sorry. Were y'all just talking about late models?

[Daves70]

67 all the way. The sloped hood and small back window just make the step side look perfect. But I am biased. I have a 67 short step with a 72 highlander interior.
