    A big part of the problem is that they just don’t make small affordable trucks anymore.

    The tiny little Ford ranger of the 90s used to be the cheapest car at a Ford dealership. The current ranger is only a couple inches smaller than the f150 and costs a couple grand less, if you can even find one.

      There’s clearly some demand for small trucks, too. I’ve been seeing an increasing number of imported kei trucks around me.

      I had a 1986 Mazda B2000 for a while. Very useful, tough little thing, even though it only had like 75hp.
