    Who was making pickup trucks in the immediate postwar era (say '46 to '54)? Ford, Chevy, GMC, Dodge, International... Did I leave anyone else out? I've decided I need a truck, since I can't justify building a car.

    Willys Overland (later Jeep)

    Actually, Ford and Chevrolet (others?) began civilian sales immediately after V.E. in 1945 and sold their vehicles as 1945 models until they "introduced" their 1946 p***enger models.

    I have a 1945 Ford that falls into the above category.
