If the chicken tax protected the big three from competition, they how did Nissan, Toyota, Mazda, Isuzu, Mitsubishi, VW, Subaru, Honda, and Suzuki all sell trucks while the chicken tax was in place?

Back in the '70's the US had no small pickup. Everybody wanted small pickups. Toyota, Datsun, Mazda sold loads of them.
Ford jumped on board with a rebranded Mazda I believe it was, and Chevy got in on it with a re-branded Isuzu.
