I've looked at the other 73-87 forums and they don't seem all that great either. Guess square body owners don't waste time on the computer. haha.

There are tons of squarebody groups on facebook. I've bought all sorts of parts from those groups or marketplace. I guess that's where people go first to sell stuff.

Different group of people that are enthused about each style, I'd guess.

Probably the Boomers and Gen-X folks are more interested in the 67-72 trucks, and they're members of forums that mostly predated Facebook.

In contrast, the 73-87 trucks have the biggest following among the Millennials and Gen-Z kids. They've grown up using Facebook, so that's their default platform.

I have never been able to get the hang of it on Facebook. It just seems like a lousy platform for serious info. Unless I am doing something wrong, there is no real way to search like on the various forums.
