I liked this body style of the Mazda trucks. Wish they were still being made today.

Today, Monday 23 day of December, 2024, Nissan announced a possible merger with Honda car division. Wonder how that will work out. Nissan was a part of Ford Motor Corporation at one point in time in the past. Wish they still are a part of Ford Motor Corporation.

I love those 521 series Datsun/Nissan trucks the very best. Wish they were still being manufactured by Nissan to this very day. They were good little trucks, very reliable, cheap on gas and tires, yet you could get a lot of work done with them when you needed work to get done with.

@@jasonsliger5430 I had a '73 Datsun 620 back in the early 90's... It pretty much sealed my fate for being a Nissan / Japanese vehicle owner from there. And I had a '77 Corolla before that, so... They're just good vehicles. Especially back then, when they were simple.

I love these 521 series Datsun/Nissan trucks. Wish they were still being made in 2024 going into 2025. They were good, practical, well running little trucks that you could get a lot of work done with around the house with.

@@danbasta3677 I've owned several Datsun / Nissan vehicles through the years.. 620's, 720's 210's, Infinitis, etc, but... This is my first 521. The NHTSA has made it virtually impossible to build these type trucks anymore, as it wouldn't be cost effective to the manufacturers to get them to meet crash and safety standards. Same bureaucratic red tape b/s that killed trucks like the S-10 back in the day.
