Toyota T-100 Wheelbarrow


It was the last Japanese-made truck Toyota sold in the United States.  1993-98. Full-size, except compared to the brontosaurus pickups GM, Ford and Dodge were starting to turn out in the 1990s. Succeeded by the Tundra, which has acquired it s own faux-masculine massiveness. T-100 is a plainjane, useful truck. A perfect wheelbarrow truck, in other words. At one time Ford -100's were wheelbarrows, i.e. useful trucks, not baroque masculine signalizers...ain't that America?
