I'll throw in my two cents worth!
Since the light trucks have been 'discovered' buy the mass market, who never really need or use them for what they were intended, I doubt you will ever see what we all would like to see. And, Chrysler like the others all copy each other and are very conservative in bucking trends- thats why all the cars look the same today. The risks are to damn high to make an another EDSEL! Also gvt safety/emissions regulations dictate styles also. I luv flat fender trucks but lets be honest the cabs are too small, they rattle, are drafty, noisy and so on- but we still love these old beasts. However, Dodge did break the ice once with their new Ram a few years back-who knows!
