What we all need to remember is that prior to the redesign that was done for the '88 model year, there was no regular production extended cab. Ford and Dodge had them for many years before GM got on the right track. So, all those folks who had a crush on the idea of an extended cab and were loyal GM fans went nuts over the new extended cab body style. For a person who hunts, the extended cab offered them some extra room that was also secure. At that point, the regular cab 4 wheel drive kinda fell into the "red-headed step child" genre. I don't have production totals by body style to back up my opinion. But that is my feeling based on what I have seen and in agreement with your statement as to what you see in pix on the site.
