That would be 1999, the model year of the first Silverado.

For you old farts, how much did these cost back in the day? What would be an equivalent car purchase in today’s market?

And I thought all cars looked the same today

That '69 GTO Judge in Racing Red (although it was actually orange) was the first car I ever owned.

Can't disagree. Those are beautiful.

A lot of awesome things happened in 1969. It was a great year to be an American.

Some pretty cars that year. Gotta go with the Chevelle SS as my favorite.

Also, I think you should have given some consideration to the El Camino.

They've pretty much always all looked the same, within a year or two. Just look at all the current model half ton pickups. See when one changed, and see what years others changed soon after that. The exception being Toyota who leaves the Tundra looking the same for much longer than the others.

How did you leave off the Stingray?


Posted on 8/25/20 at 3:12 pm to toosleaux
Bryan Adams sure thought so.

And now we just get shitty crossovers and $80k trucks. Awesome.

Did they all come standard with the footprint gas pedal?
