Since when? We have pickups of every size. Small pathetic compact trucks like the Maverick, Mid sized like the Colorado, Tacoma, Ridgeline, Frontier, and then all the actual pickups. There was only a short time after the Ranger went away for the second time where there wasn't many small P/U options, they're plenty again.
Your small pathetic maverick today is as big as the 1990s F-150 and maybe even 250. And they had similar or bigger hauling capacity that their modern counterparts.
As somebody that owned a 92 F150, No the hell it's not! Not even close. The Maverick is a car with a bed.
Glad to hear they're making a comeback. I haven't looked at the new truck market for a while so I wasn't aware. I usually stick to secondhand vans.
