New guy from Georgia, Potential 1st time Classic Truck Owner

[WhiteJimmy]

Sorry for the long title!

Anyways, I have the opportunity this upcoming weekend for sell my truck (2002 GMC Sierra Z71) for a 72 4x4. The current owner restored it 10 years ago, and since then its got 4000 miles. Its a rebuilt 350, and 4speed transmission with Granny gear. Ive talked to the guy and he says that there is not a thing wrong with it mechanically, and everything is new on it.

My main reason for posting on this new forum is to seek advice: is it worth it??
Is it worth going from a 2002 truck to a 1972 truck, assuming that both are dependable enough for daily driving? (If i get the 72, it would be my daily driver for ONE YEAR, until I graduate college and start a job. Im 21 now.)

Do you have any regrets with going to an older style truck? Any advice for me for when I go and look at it?

Thanks guys for any help..ive lurked around here for a while & this place is a great group of folks!
