Has there ever been a better truck?

[1989 Jeep Mike]

Over the last almost 60 years I have had a number of new trucks, including a Chevy and a Ford, but the Comanche I bought new in 1989 has been the best overall vehicle by far. Sure, the Ford 150 Lariat Crew Cab was more comfortable, and the Chevy Luv was the least expensive vehicle I ever bought, but the Chevy couldn't carry much of anything and the Ford got poor MPG and had mechanical issues quickly. The Comanche, on the other hand, has cost almost nothing over 37 years, has moved hundreds of tons of gravel and wood, and just keeps rolling along.

Oops. Since everyone likes a truck full of gravel, here is a typical picture of my Big Ton long bed loaded with a cubic yard of 1" for my long driveway.
