Always a fan of the R50. I could never get over the wheel arches on the R51:

I want the rise time of my turn signals (and even more so, brake lights) to be as fast as possible, and if the effect is jarring, all the better. The fall time can be as soft as you like, though I’m not too interested in it either way.

GONNA FUCK NATURE WITH MY BIG V8 DICK

1. Show me a brand new full size truck for $20,000 because I don’t believe that.

Great points. 60+ is definitely pushing it you’re right. That said, I sold more than my fair share of them when I sold GMC’s for a living.

except it seems most of the full sized trucks are posers only too, where I live most vehicles are 3/4 or one tons that rarely get used for what they are designed for. A friend has an f350 4x4 diesel because he has to tow his boat- which is about 20 feet long and he takes it from the yard of his cottage down to the…

“So while this will mean people looking for a $40,000 truck”

The $67,500 Rivian would very likely have a lower cost of lifetime ownership.  But that’s an education issue that is still a very real problem in the short term.

This is a lifestyle accessory for people making a comfortable six figures, not a useful vehicle for getting shit done. It’s a truck costume, for posing only.

Tesla did it that way, making the roadster(original lotus based one), then the S, then the X before getting to the Model 3.

I’m just getting tired of every new EV being something that I get all excited about and then discover that there is something that is a dealbreaker for me. I want an electric truck! I would even pay extra for one! But I’m not gonna buy one with a little vestigial lump of a bed on the back, because I want a truck that…

But you can option a Ram, an F-150, and a Silverado/Sierra to the exact same price and higher,

But  it remains that EV’s will be viewed as the vehicles of the smug elites.

Just a shame that it’s only a luxury truck instead of, you know, a truck. I mean, the bed length is only 4'7". This is a lifestyle accessory for people making a comfortable six figures, not a useful vehicle for getting shit done. It’s a truck costume, for posing only.

It DOES feel like time slows down when you jump a car! I think it’s because you suddenly lose all of the sound of the tires on the ground, but it’s eerie nonetheless.

I’m seeing an extended bed Isetta Pickup. Anybody else? 😜

It looks Pacer-ish.

It needs suicide doors
