Well, Ford still has the F150 (I wonder where the F100 went?).

Me too. I also wonder about getting a Truck, Pickup, One Each"
which does not have all the bells, whistles, doodads, dual overhead
windshield wipers knobs, chromed twin muffler bearings, in cab movie
theatre, and a turntable for the stereo.

I'm toying with the idea of getting a Honda Acty. Google it. It's
cute as hell, tiny, and has a bed bigger than a short-bed F-150 (and
the bed converts into a flatbed).

Saw one on the street the other day and said "WTF is _that_" so I
looked it up. Japan-only, can import to the US after 25 years.

Hmmm, will look it up.

Not a lot of load but I don't really need a lot of load.

What I want is a "beater" - something I can haul stuff home from
the store, the side of the road or to the dump, the second hand store,
or the recycle.
Some guys can turn ANYTHING into a "beater" in short order. I do all
of the above with my 25 year old truck but try REALLY HARD not to make
a "beater" out of it!!
