    Are you talking about an actual Merc pickup? Or a Merc car made into a pickup?

    Most of the HAMB don't see these trucks as they are Canadian models only.

    Mercury trucks were only sold in Canada vs. as Fords here in the US. I'm sure it had a lot to do with marketing. Much as nowadays, would a Merc truck sell to the common buyer? They probably had better results in Canada.

    As stated above, Mercury trucks were a Canadian model, as were Fargo trucks in the Chrysler lineup.

    Canada had ford dealers and also Lincoln/Mercury dealers. They wanted a truck to sell, so they had Merc trucks.

    On the Chrysler side, Dodge and Plymouth were sold at separate dealerships.....Fargo trucks were sold at Plymouth dealers.

    GM had similar ideas............Chev/Olds had Chevy trucks.........Pontiac/Buick dealers sold GMC trucks.

    I have this 51 Ford............sorry, not a Merc.
