Thinking was different. Folks back then had been through the great depression, it it was on their mind that something like that could happen again.

You ONLY spent money on things you needed. A half ton pickup was considered a pretty big luxury item back then. You didn't order any extra options like power steering , brakes, surely not AC.

A 3/4 or one ton??? Most of the 1/2 tons were likely worked like their heavier duty models.
