The Light Line was never developed as an extended cab, but Dodge and Ford would introduce the Club Cab and Super Cab in 1973 and 1974, respectively (GM would do so in 1988).

The original 1957-1960 three-door Travelette became a precursor of an additional type of pickup truck design feature. During the 1970s, American manufacturers introduced two-door extended-cab pickup trucks, sized between two-door standard-cab and four-door crew cab pickup trucks. In contrast to
