@cars Bring back mini trucks! My 1990 ford ranger is everything a commuter should be. People do not need fast cars they need something reliable, fast enough to get you from point A to B, and a perfect sized bed to haul almost anything in your home. Driving is still a blast BECAUSE IT IS SLOW! If you have not driven a vehicle with less than 100hp then treat yourself to the joys of your nearest shitbox.

You're looking for perfect, I get that, but this is the only vehicle that won't be connected to the cloud, has a company pushing right to repair laws, is allowing customers to do their own warranty work if they want to, giving you how to guides with a repair manual, providing .stl files for 3d printing parts and still selling the vehicle for under $30k.

Look man, take the progress when it's here before you end up with tesla robotaxies you can't even drive, cuz that's what happens of consumers don't buy this truck.
