I wish somebody would do this with a gas truck.

100%. Make me a new 90s Chevy 2500 with a manual transmission and I’d buy one tomorrow. Put a 6.0 in it and it would be even better.

It’s hard to find the base models of a current truck on a dealer lot. They make a lot more selling a King Ranch instead of a work truck.

Absolutely. At least you guys dont have the salt. Jealous. If we didn't my current truck that is 10 years old would last me another 15 probably. That'd be nice.

Add power windows and locks and I’m in. Don’t really need anything else.

Don't need those either. mtmuley

My 94 doesn’t have them. I don’t like leaning over to the passenger side to roll the window down.

For a LOT of people this is a great solution - especially being an EV.

If you drive/commute 50 miles a day, i imagine its pretty practical even as a "commuter" or second vehicle.

A major corporation is spending a fortune, or rather you tax payers are paying them a fortune to develop the smart grid for electric storage of energy.
When your vehicle is plugged in the grid, it can add or drain your battery as needed to store energy.
Might sound crazy but it is behind the push to get EV into homes.

How many of y’all lined up to buy the $20K base model ford maverick when it rolled out? Checks a lot of boxes that are being named here, but it’s small like I assume this one will be.

I love my new truck, but I wish I could have opted out on a lot of the bells and whistles. During the winter if I have been riding down a lot of gravel roads my blind spot assist is basically useless unless I clean the sensors on my rear bumper. The sensors get a film of dirt on them and just keep the blind spot warning lit up. If the windshield gets mud in the right spot the park assist and crash detection warnings keep scrolling across the dash until I clean a few cameras. It's annoying to have a lot of features I don't want, then have to go out of my way to keep them functional to avoid random warning lights. Those heated seats and steering wheel sure are nice though.
