- 4 Most Epic Pickup Trucks! That Changed The Game!
The fascinating stories of four legendary trucks that not only dominated the roads but reshaped the entire automotive landscape!
👉 First up, the Jeep Gladiator - a powerhouse born from the robust roots of Jeep station wagons. This full-size pickup took the world by storm in 1963, introducing the first mass-produced overhead-cam engine in the U.S. and setting new standards for rugged, off-road capabilities. Discover how it transformed from a military workhorse to a civilian icon, and how it's making a comeback in today's market!
🔥 Then, we shift gears to the Dodge Lil Red Express - the badass of the late '70s. With its bold red paint and towering stacks, this truck was a rule-bending rebel that became the fastest American-made vehicle in its day. Learn about the clever loophole that Dodge exploited to create this high-performance machine!
Next, we journey to Japan with the Datsun 620. Pioneering the extra-cab model, this compact pickup was a game-changer during the fuel crises of the '70s. It’s not just about its robust design and reliable engines; it's about setting a benchmark for fuel efficiency and emissions standards without a catalytic converter!
Finally, witness the stylish revolution of the 1955 Chevrolet Cameo. It broke all the molds by blending the utility of a truck with the luxury and style of a high-end car. With its smooth-sided bed and first use of fiberglass, the Cameo paved the way for the luxury truck market.

That grill needs to make a comeback.
My Gladiator was a 1977 J20. I bought it at one year old and I started missing it about 5 minutes after I sold it. I loved that truck
The Gladiator is a beauty. I loved my 64' short bed.
I had a 65 Jeep pickup that I traded a 74 Datsun for it.
My Dad ran the 620 Datsuns from 1978 until around 2000. He rebuilt engines for them and always had one on the shelf when needed. He had a small herd of parts trucks when he finally started running Subaru wagons later on.
I owned a 1970 Gladiator pickup. It was the last of the Kaiser owned Jeeps, so it was equipped with a Buick 350 with a Turbo 400 trans. The funniest thing to do with it was put it in four low and punch it from a dead stop. I never heard a transmission go through all of its shifts so fast in my life. Was in top gear before ten mph. Just so funny. Great truck, drove it for believe it or not seventeen years.
Dad had a 1966 and a 1969 3/4 tons had 350 Buick Motors 4 speed sticks from the factory Very Cool and Rugged
I watched a Jeep Gladiator show up a Ford Highboy, a Dodge 250, and a Chevy Silverado 2500 when it climb a mountainside on which all three had gotten stuck. The Jeep then turned around, drove to the bottom of the hill, then proceeded back up the hill weaving between each stuck truck. I laughed so hard I nearly spotted! The biggest downfall was how fast they disintegrated when they got wet.
The Gladiator was a package for the Jeep J10 and J20 trucks. Also, Dodge had 2 Truck package's that are even more rare than the little red express. Those were the 1978 Midnight express and the 1979 Warlock.
The dodge dude beat the lil red to the market. And had a hot motor for the time.
Blue 63 Gladiator Stepside with V&E on the door. Escaping or chasing Graboids.
What does that mean?? John from Cape Cod
The truck that Fred Ward and Kevin Bacon drove in Tremors 1 and 2.
