29. 1978-1979 Dodge Lil’ Red Express Truck
The 1978-1979 Dodge Lil’ Red Express Truck was one of the first true performance pickup trucks. Performance trucks are all the rage these days, but in 1978 it was still a pretty novel concept. With admission standards and high gas prices constraining the automobile market, a regulatory loophole allowed Dodge to produce the high performance 1978-79 Lil’ Red Express truck. It was one of the fastest vehicles of its day, besting many same-year American sports cars. Less than 10,000 Lil’ Red Express trucks were produced, making them rare collector’s items.
