According to the salesman, it can't be done. Uncarpeted floors and crank windows, never mind non-plush upholstery you savage, are things of the past. Maybe he just didn't want to find me one, but it sure sounded like he meant it. Makes restoring grandpa's F100 out in the barn seem like a worthwhile thing...
Other than a manual all of the big three make trucks like that, currently their are probably about 100k+ listed on Autotrader.

$18k for 2wd, 4wd starts in the low $20k range.

IMHO crank windows suck on a truck, they are to wide, I cannot wait until I get power windows again.

Right now the best deals can be had on the outgoing F150. A dealer in PA is selling 14's with V8, 4x4, power locks and windows, rubber floor, and vinyl seats for $23k. Can't beat that.
