@siracusa @marcoarment @caseyliss This week's discussion of the Slate and TELO reminded me of this ridiculous self-caricature that I saw in a northern Indiana auto museum. It's an International that instead of a trailer hitch had an extended cab and bed. It went nowhere in 2005 but looking at current Ford and Dodge trucks, we're maybe only a few years away from this being the norm. (I'm about 6' 1" and the bed came up to at least my shoulders.)
