I'd like to see a retro truck comparison on trucks of 1975, for example.  Find trucks of that era that are stock as possible, and run them through your typical tests.  Examples would be:  Bronco, Scout II, Ram Charger, Blazer, Land Cruiser and Jeep CJ or Wagoneer ...

The same for pickups:  Jeep, Dodge, International, Chevy and Ford.  

I'm sure there would be people that would let you use their vehicles.

OR

Take these same vehicles and have a contest with them.

not much to compare, they are all basically the same with the exception of the coils on the front of the bronco.

really? awesome! street chopper magazine does this in the back of their mag and they outline a few of the top articles from that particular month. it's pretty cool to rread about what was the hot set-up 20 or 30 years ago. plus for guys like me who want their truck to have that old-school (cringe) look you get some unique ideas sometimes. i for one would love to see you guys do this!
