Ford doesn't care about what you want, they care about what people will buy. And people overwhelmingly do not buy single cab trucks.
This truck is from a bygone era where they were used by farmers and tradespeople. These days people buy them as status symbols to commute to the office.
Yet they lobby to ban Kei trucks. They struggle to compete with 25 y/o Japanese single cab work trucks with import fees.
You mean they dont care what people want they sell what people will pay the most for. Nobody is stupid enough to pay over 100k for an ev not even tesla truck guys.
