    I'm curious to learn the real reason why Ford never released the B-100 in the USA. I've heard it was due to some sort of agreement with General Motors in which GM could continue producing the GMC and Chevrolet Suburban and Ford could produce the two-way tailgate feature on station wagon cars... Is this true?
