Another side effect of the constant more, more, more mentality was then loss of the small truck (S-10 & Ranger) do to ever increasing size and payliad requirements. I remember that at the end of its life Ranger with the big v6 and max tow package was pushing well into similarly equipped F-150 prices. This all nut gave the segment to the Japanese. Now even they have grown substantially.

I'm not trying to take anything away from the new "mid size" trucks but at what...6in narrower, 3in lower, and less than a 1000lb difference between the two...they're over 90% of what the Silvy/Sierra are. Thusly what's the point?
