Would you buy a truck this bare-bones?

    I am excited, this is what my husband and I have been waiting for - a regular vehicle with no bells and whistles just to raise the price

      Fun fact, this isn’t $20K but that’s what it takes to get people, to share the article. The actual arrival says that it’s $20K after government rebates in the US. So it’s actually expensive without tax dollars.

        More to the point, you can’t rely on the US government to continue rebates for EVs unless the manufacturer is owned by Musk.

        I wonder how much petrol/diesel would cost if the government didn’t subsidise it. And if they were actually held liable for oil spills.

          And if they were held liable for the damage they’ve done to the environment and climate, and people’s health.

        I’m at least glad it’s not yet another bigger truck. I just want a vehicle to get from A to B that can actually fit things in the bed
