Sodly: In Nova Scotia, Canada, IH light trucks were sold by the heavy dealers. I know even my IH farm dealer had to buy his pickups from the truck dealer.
My first two trucks were IH pickups, 58 and then a 65. Rugged trucks in my opinion, they certainly weren't trying to compete with sport trucks. I especially like the straight front axle on leaf springs. The one down fall was rust.
