Well you and I do, and our opinions count!

I've actually owned more '55 1st trucks than '54s if you allow me to count those GMC's built AS 55's as '55 1st. I know that is a little bit of an issue with the GMC crowd but for 1/2-ton and some other models I've been able to identify clear serial number lines where the switch from '54 to '55 occurred.
