Toyota used to have a pickup called "pickup" that was awesome. Small, light, but a full-sized bed. minimal with little to break - manual transmission, crank up windows, bench seat, etc.

I guess they rely on full-sized american pickup habits and creative financing to get folks to buy more expensive and bulkier trucks.

My dad bought an ‘89 Toyota Pickup in ‘93 and, between he and I, we put 270k miles on the thing

Extended cab, 5 speed manual. It was my first vehicle when I turned 16 and I loved it

I think it's what was called the Hilux elsewhere, and Top Gear did a fun part about it showing how indestructible it was (spoiler: very).
