I'm going to give the person you responded to the benefit of the doubt that they were talking about the electric Silverado and F-150, not this Slate truck. An even better comparison is the Ford Maverick Hybrid, which weighs 3856 pounds, so this is 250 pounds less than a comparably sized hybrid. The Maverick XL with gas engine is 3650 pounds, and this still beats that.
I appreciate you comparing like with like, but I have the feeling "tiny weiner trucks" imply a certain engine type, minimum size, and visibility requirements
The funny thing is, I think this truck looks visibly closer to a tiny wiener than trucks that imply the driver has a tiny wiener.
