Very true, I grew up in farm country and most of the farmers wanted 3/4 to 1ton, diesel, manual transmission, 4X4, regular or extended cab, manual windows, rubber floor, pretty bone stock. By the time I graduated high school (1995) they had to special order them because the dealers just wanted to carry ones with all the bells and whistles.
When Chevy brought out its W/T package and promoted it heavily they all got sold very quickly, the only problem was they were too light duty for the farm boys.
