That GM body style never did much for me...
67-72 is the one that does it for me

Burbs are in a league of their own
Nothing stock beats their off road capabilities
A quick shot of probably

I’m a kid compared to all of you old fucks around here so that early mid 90’s is from my pre teen / early teen years - t’is what I grew up with so like most others I guess I’m stuck in my time, lol
I’m a big fan of the mid 80’s Sierra as well - fuckin’ thing was such a nice looking truck

Purveyor of bullshit, mostly.
88-98 rigs will break too. The one on the 88 in my sig pic broke in half when the loader at the scrap yard picked it up by the cab roof...right after I drove it across the scale.
I get it, but not a fan of the extended cabs with suicide doors on one side only. My next truck will either be a regular cab or a full on 4 door.
My favorites as well, gimme a 3/4 ton 454 4 speed 4x4 please.
67=72s ain't bad either, but usually more $$$ and far fewer factory 4x4 rigs.
The lack of rot on a vehicle that old is just so odd to see - lol
Yup square body and anything older gets my vote. Solid front axle. I do like the 1987 that had fuel injection 700r4

That's my favorite GM pickup/Blazer/Burb body style as well. I like 'em better than the 73-87 square bodies, 61-66's, and the 88-98's. Anything old get's a thumb's up from me these days however. Not in a Bucketsmeller way though.
The Burbs stayed square body thru 1991. There's a REALLY nice 90-91 3/4 ton Burb driving around hear.
I like them as well have about 30 in my yard,just missing a Blazer from that era. 5 Crewcabs, 7 Burbs 4 1 tons and a bunch of pickups.

The only complete one of that era in the yard, that will change now that i am looking for them.

I got my Mom and Dads Burb back a couple years ago
It was a Winter Olympic's truck when it was in Calgary.Had a plaque on the dash saying it was for the Officials.
Red and White, 4X4 loaded. Still no rust or body damage, loaded inside.
Was thinking of doing a Cummins swap into it but it's so clean and original it will probably stay that way. I have a few others that would be good to molest.
Had the 4L60e rebuilt in this one, @Dieselfitter was correct, 2-4th shift band done. Our local very reliable guy did it himself over a weekend for 1500 American with a 12 month warranty, we're 6 months in and it's solid.
For 12 years I calved out first calf heifers in March, 1200-1800 head depending on the year. You tend to learn a few things. Pulled 13 in one day once
