The little pickup looks like a Toyota.
I bought a new Toyota pickup, 4X4 in 1980. Other than being underpowered, it was reliable and would go just about anywhere in 4X4. It got berried in a peat bog, right up the windows when it was a month old. I had a long tow rope tied to the rear hitch and as we escaped the sinking truck, I grabbed the rope and tied it to a substantial tree. A local guy with a big Dodge 4X4 pulled the nearly out of sight Toyota out, slowly and carefully. The interior was dry and the muck did not get past the airfilter. It took hours to hose most of the peat off and out of the crevices in the truck. A year later the truck was still leaking moist peat. The moisture started to rust the truck from inside the spot-welded joints. The spotwelds started to look like dimples. I swapped the Toyota straight across for a 1980 F250 and everyone went away happy.
I would rather have tools I do not need than to need tools I do not have
