    Somebody had one when I was a kid, it was lowered and had a CV sub in the back that took up the entire floor. It was the early 90s.

    I solved the grocery cart problem with a tonneau cover and bed extender which when not extended serves as an excellent place for groceries and other items. It’s far easier to load up from the back than back seats, and you’re not blocked on one side if someone parks too close to you. Best of all I got to keep my access cab 6’ bed for use as a REAL pickup truck. :D

    The Pulsar was an odd little car even back then, not many sold. I think my wife sold one of those tops in all of the three years she was there. The kammback add-on was somewhere around $1500 (a lot back then for a hokey accessory like that).

    I test drove the four-door by the way. I’m fatter and just as tall as you, I didn’t realize the seat went further back than the AC. Is that true?

    I bought a an ac because when I do use it as a truck, it needs a six foot bed. I am 5'7 and my wife and I can sleep in the back. I have plans on getting a camping set up and make it a bug out rig.

    I'm 5'7" too...probably closer to 5'6" and I stretched out on that DCSB of mine...

    It was telling that a bed that short would not be a pleasant experience...me just laying at an angle and realizing, I wouldn't put a topper on this thing and expect my wife to double-bunk in there! lol

    I'd sooner buy an RV Trailer with all the amenities before I put my wife through that!

    EDIT: She wouldn't have it.

    Ok, open the front door. Then open the back door. Close the front door easily, don't try to latch it. Then close the back door lightly. Push the cart between the two parked cars past the back door until you can get it open. Now you can load your items. Easy peezzie lemon squeesy.

    There aren't manyv vehicles outv there that have two doors T-tops and a bed, it's probably a manual too. All it needs is 4wd.

    The one thing about buying a crew cab over extended cab is, you’re rarely buying that cab configuration for yourself.
