I think the small truck segment has died off because they didn't cost much less, didn't get better fuel mileage, held less cargo and were less capable than the 1/2 tons.
Add it all up and you can see why people passed them over on the dealer lots and therefore, why they have dissapeared.
Not true, Ford and Chevy just gave up, here in Vegas Toyota and Nissan small trucks are everywhere, I even have the 09 Frontier parked in my driveway, gets around 22+ mpg highway and has 4 doors and much easier to park, the Chevy Colorado in 09 when looking to buy a small truck was cheap and gutless, Nissan won out in quality and power, also looks good..
