My guess would be "Brand Loyalty". There are people that think the GMC is far superior to the Chevy. We know better. \:D/

Hey locdoc, I've never been a camera person & even when I carried one I'd forget to use it.

My "rare" G10 is being detailed & when I pick it up next week, I'll see if I can find a camera & take a few photos.

I still really like & appreciate Astros & Safaris, but my 1st love has always been swb G10s, so I think I'm going to be a G10 person for quite awhile & take a break from Astro/Safari scene. But, I'm sure I'll find another Astro/Safari down the road that I won't be able to live without!

It would have really helped to see one and how they dealt with the cooling. IE radiator, shroud, etc. It's like a big tease. I say "NO PICS, DON'T POST!".
Well, the other option is getting the new owner on the forum here!
