c. 1982 Toyota Hilux and c 1996 Ford Rangers & c. 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Los Angeles. (Mar Vista)
Trucks have strayed too far from 'truck' as in useful. We await the Slate. We have posted several Hilux, including this 1973 Toyota Hilux and we are very fond of Ford Rangers. Wheelbarrows all.

From the poet Eva H.D., in Brooklyn:

c. 2010 GMC 2500. Brooklin, Maine.
Plainjane 2-door HD pickups with no extended cab are fairly common in coastal Maine because they are the trucks lobstermen need to stack and haul traps in spring and fall. Out post on lobstertrucks at Naskeag did note a few extended cabs, however. Then there was Brian Robbins' piece in The Rising Tide on his father's lobster truck.
