"Less popular" is an incorrect term...the bars are a dime-a-dozen, the teeth are more rare, and show taste and refinement.

I mean, the 5-bar Chevy...oops, Ford, are like Shelby and regular Mustangs...sure, the Shelby is a Mustang, but not all Mustangs are Shelby's. Sure, the 5-bar's are trucks, the the '51-'52, now THAT'S a TRUCK!!

I suppose the plow is the truck equivalent of a paperbag on the grill, if you know what I mean.
