One can easily guess base-trim trucks are only available because of the fleet market, even though it does surprise me extended cabs didn't effectively replace regular cabs for the full-size models as they did for the compacts. When it comes to the highest trims, as the average Joe doesn't have to express much concern for the compliance issue to the same extent as corporative customers would have to, I'd expect most of the electrification on them to still revolve around the hybrid option as long as the marketing department makes it seem cool in the eyes of recreational users.
