Slick 60's

I see tons of 66 Slicks for sale, but few 65s.

Why is that?

This is just a W.A.G., but I have gotten the idea from some long forgotten source that the 66's were a much more popular model than the 65's (and maybe more sold?), although I personally prefer the 65 grill. Haven't looked at the production figures, but as I said that's a W.A.G. Or, maybe many of the 65's have 66 grills?

i would like to find a 65 f100 4x4
first year of the 300 I6 & last year of leaf sprinf front axle
i keep my eye out.... havent found one for me yet

because the 61-64 straight axle trucks were built so well no one needed to buy a truck in 65. lol

Or they didn't trust that "new fangled" technology

OK, I'll shut up now!

or maybe it was that boring grille design.

IIRC the 66 had the highest prodution numbers, by a long shot.

It took a year for most people to understand a twin-I
