I have a truck that was advertised as a 65, but after looking at the VIN, i believe it is a 66. Can someone verify this for me?

If I'm right, I think I need to change my username...

Thanks for the help.

Congratulations! You are a year younger than you expected! How many times in life does that happen? thumbs_up

Inspired to be different. Different in a way of my own, not in a way that others strive.

Heh. Well, the good thing is that as far as I can tell the 65-66 models are exactly the same. Just makes me wonder why the seller thought it was a 65. Someone probably told him it was and he never checked it out.
