Seeing as how I'm not that old, maybe I shouldn't be saying this...
...but there did use to be a time when all the trucks were standard cabs and the the frame length only changed when somebody got the 6-1/2 box, the 8 foot box, or the 9 foot box.
I think the fact that manual trannies and standard cabs are now considered special order is rather sad...I'm not saying extended cabs and Autos don't have their place, but I personally don't have much use for 4 door. An extended cab? Well, yeah, but I'd still prefer the standard cab.

Love my regular cab.
Don't have kids, dog likes the back.
I have lots of people comment on how rare regular cab trucks seem to be getting. That is usually followed by a story about their dad's or grandad's old truck.
I had to get this one shipped in from another dealer. I would have preferred a stick but that was impossible to find at the time.

Of course part of the reason they are valuable is because they are rare (and they also make good hot rods).

Until recently, two door coupes were always much more popular then the 4 door sedans. It has only been in the last 10 years or so that 2 doors seem to have become less available then the 4 doors. But who here still wouldn't want to see the return of the 2 door Bronco or even the Explorer for that matter!
