Yes I do in the city, but doing 75 on the highway I have the rear window open .. it also has kick panel vents. No problems while cruising ever

Another point to consider is insurance. If you kept the 99 you can insure it with Hagerty. Cheap $350 /yr for full coverage. Your other 2 wouldn’t qualify as they are not classic trucks yet.

The '99 is actually currently getting the A/C fixed. I love the lifted look and it rides well enough but I would leave it stock if I could go back in time. When I originally lifted it I was going to do a full SFA and LS swap. I ended up deploying again and it just took a back seat to the other projects. Still a great truck though.

If you have to get rid of two, dump the OBS first - least comfortable, reliable, practical, etc. Then you just have to decide which of the other two you like best. (I'm partial to NNBS - they have their issues, but they're known and once you get through the list you have a pretty sweet ride, especially with 6 speed)
If you can get away with getting rid of just one - make the same decision as above, but keep the OBS. Save it for a time when you can put some $$/time into it because OBS 2-doors are sweet!

Old square bodies are my absolute favorite! Keep those! I passed on my dads very clean K-5 for $5k 20 years ago, kicking myself ever since lol.Dallas TX here. My 84 pickup and 78 Suv have been my daily drivers until I bought myself the 2002 this month. 84 pickup has no AC and it is NO FUN. I drove 2 weeks ago to Tulsa and back and I must have drank 6-8 bottles of water. Sweated a lot. Never needed a "comfort break" so that was a good thing I guess.I'm hopeful to do an AC conversion this winter though....
Point is if you want to sell the non-AC, time it in the peak of winter. Best time to sell !!
I've seen videos of AC evap replacement done quite easily on the GMT800s so that's great. OBS evap replacement seems like a bear.

All fair points and I really like the 2013, but I will say the '05 is one of the most comfortable rides I've had and it's built real solid. I'm the second owner and it was very well taken care of. Only issue I really have with the nnbs is the cheap plastics and body panels.
