Hoss, for me, just the opposite: I find the 767-300 is the easiest to land airliner I've ever flown, especially in a 5-kt crosswind. 757-200? Stick forces get too high in the flare. 757-300 a lot easier than the -200, but I haven't flown it (or the 767-400) in more than two years.
Flying out of Denver you got to fly the 767 about once a quarter. Everything else was on the 757-200 (76T). So it was just a matter of familiarity. I got transitioned over to the 756 about 2 weeks before I went back to the 777 so I never flew the 753 or the 764 enough to have an opinion about them.
