Owned a 'Yota Starlet, 1983 model. Smallest car I ever drove, 6'-1" and 200 lbs didn't/doesn't fold up very easily, so it was passed on to my mother.
Three-way tailgates.....now pick up trucks have split gates that can do the normal drop down, or open half, as a back door. With the loads we regularly subjected old school single function gates to, on the job sites, I can foresee the new multi-function models breaking and dropping things on feet. Steel-toe boots only do so much

But then, they also regularly broke the cable style limiters with what ever could be piled on the back of a truck.
Back to tubing decals and metallurgy classes.
