Don't get me wrong, I loved my '75. However, the 4 MPG got old after a while. It turns out a 454/TH400/203 combo w/4.56 gears and 36's is not the best thing for mileage. It went through the mud pretty well, though. Since I have gotten older, little things like A/C, cruise, not stopping every hour for fuel, etc. have become a little more important to me. Right now, an 89-91 Jimmy would be at the top of my list, for a few reasons. Seats, fuel injection, and front end being most of the reason. I also like the fact that you can mount a CD player in the dash without hacking everything all to hell. It is all about personal preference, really.
