THIS is the model breakdown.

I don't get what's not to like about chrome.

my 87 was an xl

loved it

nothing had power....except the motor after i tinkered with it
manual steering
non-power brakes
no abs
its didn't even have a stereo

i based my 85 build off of it
except with 4x4 you have to have power steering....

rubber flooring, and color keyed bumpers and mirrors, for example are sport options here, that truck would be a sport if it was sold in the US, not an FX4. its just a name and a sticker
I don't know what your sport models are, probably something like an stx. but this isn't a thread about the differences in names of canadian models.
