Yet GM,as well as IH,had the foresight to build the Suburban and Travelall.I think that was their crewcab.The early factory crewcabs had short beds anyway...except for IH,who ironically stopped making light trucks before the market was taken over by them.So,the first Dodge and Ford crewcabs were just for tools and small equipment that in most cases would fit in a Suburban where it was locked and dry.
