2. Honda Ridgeline

   Tesla Cybertruck
2. Mercedes-Benz Unimog
   Hummer H3

Tesla's first truck, the Cybertruck, has been hyped in anticipation of its release with a 2019 press conference that was a bit of a gong show. A demonstration was meant to show off the truck's unbreakable windows, one of which promptly broke (because it wasn't rolled up all the way). Oops!

1. Ford Durango
   Chevy El Camino
2. Chevy SSR
   Ford Ranchero

Is the Ford Ranchero really a truck? It has a flatbed, and that's close enough. It was Ford's counterpart to the Chevy El Camino, and over 500,000 of them were manufactured during the vehicle's run, which is pretty impressive.

   Toyota FJ-40

The Chevy 454 SS was a 1990 variant of Chevy's GMT400.

1. Suzuki Samurai
   International CXT
2. Nissan Hardbody
   Dodge Shelby Dakota

The International CXT was made by Navistar International. The acronym in the name stands for "Commercial Extreme Truck," and, as you can see, these are really big, really intense commercial trucks. However, they were carefully designed to fall just below the gross vehicle weight that would require a commercial trucker's license to drive.
