Poor thing's having an identity crisis, apparently. Doesn't know whether it's an OBS or a Plymouth Volare...

Something I want to get off my chest, calling a GMT400 an 'OBS' just sounds so incredibly stupid, THEY ARE NOT OLD!!

GO DAWGS!!!
I guess that all depends on your frame of reference. 30 years is not that old to me either, but to others it certainly is. Of course, the term originated when the GMT800 was introduced in 1999 to differentiate the NBS from the OBS. Some models you could have a '99 OBS, while others would be a '99 NBS. I'm pretty sure that's the correct etymology.

It just sounds so ignorant, and has always bothered me, with the Ford trucks too. I think the biggest problem is when it's repeated over and over constantly by people who don't know jack **** about the truck.I guess that all depends on your frame of reference. 30 years is not that old to me either, but to others it certainly is.

Etymology sounds right, and it makes sense, in the right context. I'm an old man.
Yes, when I was young, a 30 year old Chevy truck looked like this. And to me, at that time, this truck may as well have been from another century.I guess that all depends on your frame of reference. 30 years is not that old to me either, but to others it certainly is.

That is UGLY.
It’s functional though. You could probably drive right through a tornado and the wind has no chance getting under to lift.

the worst thing imho about the obs name is that we have to share it with the 92-96(97) blue oval offerings because for some reason they are also called obs have heard them called a arrownose a few times but 9 times out of 10 people call them obs
