FactIn 1969, Dodge dressed up a plain D-100 with a stripe, a dash decal and dog-dish hub caps, called it "The Dude," and had Don Knotts front the ad campaign. Barely 2,000 were built.
Mildly redesigned in spring 1965 (so both two- and four-headlight trucks are titled 1965s) with a wider tailgate, the A-series engines replaced by the LA series and a six-inch wheelbase stretch on 8-foot-bed models; in 1967 the big-block 383 two-barrel became a standard option. Built at Warren by Chrysler (and in Israel by Automotive Industries at Nazareth-Illit with four- and six-cylinder gasoline engines and a manual transmission for civilian and army use, alongside the D500 and D600 trucks and a 20-seat army bus) and sold in Canada as the Fargo 100. Engines: 225 slant-six, 318 LA V8, 361 and 383 B V8s, and 421, 426 and 440 RB V8s.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

The GMT400 split the twins for good: 1988 was the year "C/K" became Chevrolet-only badging, while GMC's version of the very same truck became the Sierra.
GMC found 10 extra horsepower in the Sierra All Terrain X's 5.3L V8 with nothing more than a performance exhaust, no other changes needed to go from 355 to 365 hp.
This Sierra kept rolling off the line for a full extra year after its replacement arrived - badged "Classic" in 2007 just to tell the two generations apart on dealer lots.
When this GMT900 Sierra launched for 2007, GM kept selling the outgoing truck alongside it, badged "Classic," so buyers could choose old or new side by side on the same lot.
Toyota showed it as the T150 until Ford sued over the likeness to the F-150, and the production truck was renamed Tundra.
A Louisiana owner put over a million miles on his 2007 Tundra in eight years; Toyota gave him a new truck and took his apart to study it.
Toyota's Texas Tundra plant sits on land bought from the state's oldest working cattle ranch, and the 1794 Edition is named for the year that ranch was founded.
Its launch colours had pun names such as "Anti-Establish Mint" and "Freudian Gilt", sent to Lee Iacocca by a friend.
