I agree with the '68 models being less favored than the adjacent years. Having lived through the aftermath of all the turmoil the country experienced in '68, I maintain that it is simply a year that most would like to forget. After riots & cities being burned following two major assassinations, the year was topped off by the Democratic convention in Chicago. More protests & police beatings. All in all, it was not a great year. 1969 seemed to turn the page, and, ushered in the "Summer of Love".
