For those owning Motor Pool (3rd ed) it might help to note that a very similar vehicle was sold in the USA and abroad as the Dodge Power Wagon until 1969 and outside the USA until 1971. [Note that Dodge kept the Power Wagon nameplate until 1981, but post-'71 vehicles were different.]

While it was not a comfortable truck it was sturdy, reliable, easy to fix, and apparently very popular. (From the Encyclopaedia of American 4x4s (Krause Publications) and Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Power_Wagon.

So this would be useful to any GM's doing a 1950's scenario, or a less-economically-advantaged rural scenario right to the present day.
