Thanks. I remember now. It was the dual wheels that was significant.

So - '87 was the last year for R/V two door pickups with the exception of dual wheeled vehicles (GMT400 "LD" pickups introduced in 1988). The R/V Suburban and Blazer, and 4 door pickups carried on through '91 with the GMT400 versions being introduced in 1992.

Makes sense (...well, not really...).
