S/T buyers don't want/need 2000# payloads or 6000# Tow ratings. They want a smaller more eco-friendly TRUCK with acceptable power, better-than-Full-size fuel economy, and clean crisp appearance...and they'll buy 'em in respectible number$...

It's a W I D E open market, cuz NO ONE is meeting those demands, fully...
