Full-sized pickups have grown so monstrous that the market is hungry for a smaller version. The new Ford Ranger is the size of an F-150 from 30 years ago.

Bring back the Ford Escort in the USA. They sure sold a ton of them when they were making them.

Ditto this comment. Why? I have never figured out why auto makers facing the gas deal keep making bigger and bigger cars.

Ya got that right.

And way too expensive for most folks.

Daihatsu HiJet - and make it electric.

yeah the writer is missing that point. My wife can’t find the corners of a modern pickup, but the interior of her Fiat looks like a hay wagon. She would really enjoy a small pickup with a cap on the back so as to the keep the messy stuff segregated from the passenger compartment.
