As much as I’d like to say “no thanks” maybe it’s 1955 all over again and I’m a flathead guy snubbing his nose at the new 1955 Chevrolet 265’s. We all know how that turned out . . .

My dad used to tease me:

I saw the '81 pickups and didn't like them so I hurried and bought an '80.

I saw the '88 pickups and didn't like them so I hurried and bought an '87.

He said "...In my day, you would have seen the '55 Chevys, not liked them and hurried and bought a '54".
