I like all those,too. Don't see that Cherokee hardly ever. HW didn't do many of the Stepsides. I think they were called 4x4 Commando,or something like that. I had some Matchbox and HW big rigs,but ended up selling those off. Not because I didn't like them. Needed money and to trim down. I knew guys would buy them at an show that had big trucks

I took that truck everywhere with me and I was PISSED when my parents sold it at a garage sale! I wish I still had it. Even though it was really one of the cheapest toy trucks I had as a kid, it has always had a prominent place in my memories.

That may have been a dime store toy,but a bet the play value was huge. Probably rolled across the ground like a real 4wd and it's light weight would have done great on sand. Then there's no worried with rust. Am I getting to technical about a toy?
