I know there's a vomit smiley, but I'm not finding it.

1980 is my least desirable. Looks like a Dodge

I know lots of folks hate the '80 w/ square lights but to me it always seemed fitting, everything about the truck is square so why have round lights?

My favorite was the 67-72 GMC quad light grilles.

my favorite is the pre-79 round eyes... but my truck is a 1980, and they have grown on me a lot. square is square is square!!
here's a comparison pic.

Nothing better looking than the 1960-66 GMC truck to me.
I love the panel truck 4x4s of those vintages too...the rear styling with the tear drop tail lamps is very cool also,especially the barn door versions..

Giver of not a single damn...
My uncle has a 1960 Apache 10 with the eyebrows and that's bone stock and sexy. It's been sitting for 20 years untouched and I told him I wanted it, but he's the kind of guy that will just let it sit and rot away before he gets rid of it. Shameful....

Agreed. Looks like a ramcharger instead of a K5.
I love me some 72-80 Ramcharger!!!
Round headlights ^.

I had no idea these ever existed....I honestly have never seen one before...full vert
I knew a guy back in 94 who had a forest green 74 Ramcharger with a 318 and a 4 speed. That thing was a beast off road. In the summer, he'd take the top and the doors off and we'd cruise through the hills hunting coyotes. That rig got me interested in Blazers or Broncos....but mostly Blazers.
75-76 Are my favorite
73-74 are next best

89-91 gmc with single headlight. guy local in town had it on a burban, and i wanted it so bad, then he sold the burb. Id put it on my 83 in a heartbeat.
I think the front end depends on the truck too. I like the 73-78 styles on a single cab longbed or shortbed step, but prefer the 81-87s on the crews and blazers.

That's not factory. They all came from the factory with framed doors, but a fully removable top.
Not liking 70's RCs is just plain unAmerican. Here is a 79 with stacked square head lamps (an option vs the standard single rounds.) My first truck was a 79 Power Wagon with dual squares. I didn't like them at first, but I grew to love them.
