What Started the History of the Sports Truck?

A Model A Racer pickup by Ford is what kicked it off. It even featured a convertible top and could tap out at forty five miles an hour. The model A Roadster pickup was only produced from 1928 to 1931. That was about it for sports trucks till 1978 when Dodge came up with the Li'l Red Express.

Only 2,188 were shipped in 1978 and 5,118 in 1979. Even though it only came in "Canyon Red" it might feature an array of custom accents. It appears that men have always loved their trucks. But today, even the ladies love their trucks. With family size back seats girls can have the room of the automobile but the carrying space of the truck. It is a win / win situation for everyone!
