Scion may get pickup hybrid
"Before you start saving your pennies for a Prius-powered pickup, though, do keep in mind nothing is confirmed at this point, although things do seem to heading more towards production than ever before. There is one other major caveat as well – as of now it is believed the truck would at least initially find its motivation fro a traditional gas-only engine, with a hybrid variant only maybe coming later."
"Should Scion bring the truck to market, expect the xT moniker to be plastered on the side of it – along with segment-leading fuel economy." http://www.leftlanenews.com/scion-to...p-in-2014.html |

In other news, Toyota has decided to retire the Tacoma from their US lineup, citing that it was "too exciting" for the Toyota brand.

I could be wrong but I think that era of mini trucks and jeeps has came and gone.
The Suzuki Samuri was the shit back in the days with the from SAS and even though they got a bad rep for tipping over, that would be awesome if they brought it back.
