The L is a nice truck...but even Ford knows there is no more room for this truck.
With the new F150 getting a new body, they couldnt see making a 2dr, short bed model only for the L. I belive ALL F150's have 4drs, be it suicide doors, or a crew cab.
Now, you have the SSR and SS Silverado. The SS Silverado was a head of the curve if you look at it. GM knew a crew cab, AWD, high-hp truck will probably be a better idea then making a 2 seater niche car.
And with the SSR, it covers the very limited hot rod pick up market, and does it quite well. For a bit more the price of a new L, you now can get a 400hp, 6spd manual, hard top vert 2 seater roadster truck.
