For \(t\in \mathbb{Z}\) consider the family of polynomials \[ P_t(x)=x^6-2tx^5-(5t+15)t^4-20x^3+5tx^2+(2t+6)x+1. \] The totally real sextic field generated by its root is called simplest sextic field. The authors characterize its main order and unit group together with many useful arithmetical properties. The main purpose of the paper is to investigate the parametric family of Thue equations \[ | F_t(x,y)| =1 \text{ or } 27 \] where \(F_t(x,y)= y^6 P_t(x/y)\). In [\textit{G. Lettl}, \textit{A. Pethő} and \textit{P. Voutier}, Simple families of Thue inequalities, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 351, 1871--1894 (1999; Zbl 0920.11041)] it was proved by hypergeometric methods that the equations have only trivial solutions for \(t\geq 89\) and \(t\leq -92\). The main result of the present paper extends this result to all \(t\in \mathbb{Z}\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0887.00013].
