rams never had 4 cyls

blazers/jimmys

downsize (s10 style) had 4s or 6s
full size had 8s only

lots of old "muscle cars" had 4/6/8 options, especially AMCs

Yeah, I was thinking that late 60's Ramblers had options for all three. They at least had 6/8, but I'm pretty sure there was a 4 banger on the options list.

I'm pretty sure the taurus never came in 8 cylinder. The SHO's were only v6's and nothing bigger then that.

Way back, Cadillac offered a V8 that would shut off two or four cylinders as power needs lessened, then turned them back on when needed. It was called the V-8-6-4, and was a complete failure....
