I currently own two 1988 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburbans. I have owned a 79, 82, and a 90. I would prefer a 60-66 for myself, but I like the versatility of my 4 door newer ones. I use mine to haul my tools, pull the car trailer and such. If need be I can haul the kids too. I tried to convince my wife we should get a early 50's one, but she likes her 88 too much to give it up.
PS- I fix the four letter "F" words all week, that's why I drive GM!
