Generally, they are considered more desireable as they are almost always equipped as the top line model, usually 1/2 ton.

Personally, I think the 3 windows look better if you're hot rodding a 3100. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 637 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 637 | I have had two '54's, a Chevy and a GMC, both 5 windows. The 5 windows are called "deluxe cab", so I would guess they cost more when new and were considered better looking. My personal preference is the 5 w's., but as OKSoda said, when hot rodded (I guess chopped) the 3 w's look pretty good. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 140 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 140 | I got a 5 window dodge 2 ton truck but the cab has just about fallen off I have thought about scrapping it but I just like looking at it I personally like a 3 window cab a lot better
