I had to vote a tie.  There's so much to like about each one.  I just couldn't decide. I want both!

I like the Ford except for the center chrome beltline that runs the entire length of the car. It exaggerates the length and makes me sea sick. The Impala has a totally straight centerline and accents the car's curves. And I owned that car, except in four door. Loved it then, voting for it now. Thanks John!

So close to a tie, but the Chevy spoke to me. Could be different in 15 minutes.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

The Chevy, I just never warmed up to that bodystyle on the Ford.😊

Ford please. I like the Ford full-size '60 to '69. Chevrolet & most GMC full-size I liked '61 to '64, just don't care for their styling after '64.

I have a slight preference for the Chevrolet.

I took the Chevy.  Did not like the 4 door models, but really the 2 door looks awesome.

Not crazy about either  but favor the Ford slightly more.

I much prefer the more square design of the Ford.  The tail light integration into the Chevy bumper detracts for me compared to the Ford as well.
