The first vehicle I ever drove was a Travelall back in the late 70s when I was 8 or 9. My great uncle had one on the family farm and it was a beast. Driving that thing up a hill by myself (with my uncle in the passenger seat) on gravel farm road was both scary and exciting.

I understand that the big automakers make a lot of money on the fancy trim packages but I would love a stripped down truck and even more a stripped down light truck. I still miss my '87 Nissan Frontier I had in grad school.
