I was interested in a mini-truck for transportation to and from work
but they disappeared. I bought a brand new Nissan in 1985, it got
close to 30mpg. Today's small trucks all look larger, more the Dakota
size. Anyone making trucks smaller than Dakota's these days? The
best I've seen for gas mileage is Ford Ranger with 27mpg, not very
impressive after 25 years.

They stopped importing them.

While there may be some usable ones on ebay, don't expect to find any new
ones.
