I'd say the 80's for me. I graduated high school, lost my virginity, got my first job, finished college, got a Grand National, went into the military. Not a bad decade.
What was your favorite decade and why?

90's for me. I was 7 in 1990 and 17 in 2000. Grunge and rock music changed my life. Got laid. Learned to drive. Started working.
As for cars? 2010+ and its not even close. We are currently in a golden era of performance and I feel so lucky to be a part of it right now. **** electric cars.

I'm a resto-mod kind of guy. Give me that 60s or 70s styling with modern tech and I'm in. I'm like that with homes as well. Give me the old time architecture with modern conveniences and I'm happy.
The women, dude. The big hair and tight designer jeans....
For years and years my dream car was a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Pro-touring car. Actually owned a big block Chevelle for a very brief time. If I ever decided to try another Chevelle Id go for a '70 with an LS7, Twin Turbos with a TH400 and the best Hotchkis suspension money could buy.
Then again Id rather just have a '68 Fastback Mustang with a 5.0 Coyote/6R80, Twin Turbos and Hotchkis suspension with rear coil conversion.
Right now!

The Chevelles were cool. On my bucket list. But so were the Mopars. I'd love a Plymouth Superbird with a Hemi or 440 six pack.
They loved the tank tops with no brassiere as well. And, not ashamedly, so did I. Especially when it was cold.Don't forget the mini skirts wth sneakers.
For music alone, the 90's! Call me old, I don't care, 99% of music after about 2002 max, all sucks.
The 80's. My formative years, got laid for the first time, made friendships that I still have today, the music, the movies, etc etc.
Born in 85 so it's 90s for me. Was a simpler time being just a kid living the pre-technology age and then experiencing all the new advances in computer technology and other tech. Wish I could have lived through the 80s a bit older but I still remember a lot of it.

Hard to pick just 1, enjoyed aspects of each, just happy to live this long !!

All of this.
^^^Old fart.....Lol. Being older I actually enjoyed the late 60's, 70's and 80's the most before everything went to shit in the late 90's.
90's.
90's were the golden age of grunge rock and several genres of metal, but "classic rock" was still fresh
Action movies were action movies and not simply plugs for SJW BS
Cell phones were rare, and people didn't have them glued to their heads
X-Files.
Waiting to hear your favorite song come on the radio and hit record on an old cassette, realizing you recorded over something else you waited for
Playing Doom, Warcraft, Commander Keen, Diablo, and other early PC gaming gems on MSDOS and Windows 3.1 on a 486 that sounded like a jet taking off
Last bastion of simplicity before the internet corrupted humanity, and advertisements were shoved down your throat

AND there weren’t yet any millennials around playing the victim card!

Yeah, and schoolyard fights didn't end with mass arrests. A few friends and I used to bring our slingshots to school so we could knock down wasp nests on the way home from the bus stop. The bus stop was a little less than a mile from our houses, all woods. Got caught with it at school one time and the teacher said "Keep it in the backpack, Dennis the Menace..." Today? Probably expulsion and a life sentence in jail, tried as an adult for offending someone.
Hell, I lit a kid on fire because he wouldn't stop harassing me in shop class. Actually, I lit his backpack on fire, but he was wearing it at the time so it counts. The teacher knew the kid was a little asshole and told me to "just punch him next time, ok?"
It isn't a unit of ten to ten, but 1995-2005.
A lot of interesting things happened in those 10 years. The rise of the home video game console, Terminator, LS powered cars, Home PC, Cell phones, TVs, e-commerce, online forums blew up, less social media, I could go on and on and on.
Then 2005 happened, cars turned to shit, and here we are.
