I don't know... My wife hates mine. :) But she's the first to volunteer me to help her friends.

Nothing wrong with that truck, man. Nice stance and clean execution.

Nothing wrong with it in my opinion.  My wife hates all of mine except the one called Skippy (the 73-87chevytrucks.com truck).  Probably because she wants it...

I don't know what it is about wives and hating trucks.  My wife can't stand my 79 pickup or my 91 sub. I think the truck looks great.  I am partial to the moonvisors myself...i just wish i ordered one with the lights

Looks like a Good looking truck to me as well 8)

 I was Lucky enough that my Girlfriend actually bought me my '77 K25 as a Birthday present this year :o Ofcourse it's still in her name after she switched the Title out of her Father's name, so I'm kinda thinking it's more her truck, and she tells me it's mine just to shut me up... :-X   Whenever I used to see different trucks at the beggining of our relationship 4yrs ago, I always would say to her how much I missed my old 89 K25 that was wrecked before we started dating! :(

Personally I too prefer the Visors with lights on these trucks.  What has turned me off to adding one to my truck, is the area of Seattle/etc that I grew up.  There are just too many of them that have 4-6"lifts, Ricer Hoop Spoilers on the bed, along with 14" Low Profile Tires, & Wire Wheels to go along with the visors ???

I like your truck. Nothing wrong with yellow.Reminds me of Caterpiller (diesels, heavy equipement). Doesnt fade like red or show dirt like dark colors do. Plus it stands out a bit because you dont see to many yellow trucks.
As far as women go. They tend to think new and expensive is better as far as trucks go. Example all the guys buying dually diesels to pick up buckle bunnies.
My wife doesnt like my old trucks. This suites me just fine because this way she doesnt want to drive them.
