A commenter yesterday mentioned the ELR as a fantastic used bargain due to lack of interest even on the used market. They were right. This is hilarious.

not as big of an issue. prices on them have been coming down pretty damn quick for a long time. chinas down to $100/kwh the cost isnt really the issue since theyre about to scale up production several times over what its at now. its more energy density thats the real issue. if they could get down to a kwh/kg it would…

Large EVs like this actually save the most fuel versus smaller EVs because large pickups and SUVs use the most fuel by far. Getting one Prius to become a Model 3 doesn’t save anywhere near as much fuel as getting a F150 Raptor to become a R1T.

You realize Ford’s invested over a billion dollars in Rivian, yes?  Cox Automotive a half billion?  And Amazon has 100,000 delivery trucks on order?  Pretty sure they’ll be around in 10 years.

A car that made toast would be luxurious. 

I hate the slideshows, I think they are a nightmare. At this point I better get used to them, ‘cuz I want to be in one!

No idea that BRAT was an acronym.

I wanted to hate this comment. Then I saw the picture. Take my star, you magnificent bastard!

This needs more stars. Too bad COTD went away…

“Tribute”

I was going to say “The best truck is ‘your friend’s truck’”, but I think perhaps “your dad’s truck” has it beat.

Subaru’s Bi-drive Recreational All-terrain Transporter or BRAT. The original AWD car based pick em-up truck.

Earl approved!

I think identifying a truck as the “best ever” really depends a lot on your use case. That said, my daily is a ‘21 Ram 1500 Laramie and it is my favorite material object ever, by far. It’s like driving an old-school American luxury car that can also tow my boat, drive over large objects, haul all sorts of heavy and…

One off? Impossible to actually produce?

Chevy C/K

Starred for your honesty. 

This, you big dummy!
