Please make a 4x4 model I will definitely buy one.

Sign me THE FUCK up, have been looking at 90s danger rangers to sate my small truck fix but so many of them have a car-looking front end.

Make it 10k-12k and it would be a yes if parts and repair ability were guaranteed for 10 years.

Is it a networked surveillance nightmare?

[–] Rhusta@midwest.social 7 points 5 days ago

It doesn't seem to come with any gadgets. No touch screen, not even a radio. It's possible that it still broadcasts location data and it's possible they could hide a mic to record audio as well. But it isn't connecting to your phone with Bluetooth, it can't exploit the Bluetooth connection to scrub your messages and socials. So it's a LOT better than most new cars.

No stereo is fine if it has ports for me to just buy my own car stereo kit and add it afterwards. I don't see the point of no paint, like don't you need it to protect the metal from the environment

Features I look for in a car

  • 4 wheels
  • radio
  • power windows
  • reverse cam

How hard is this?

Perfect except for it being a truck. Why is North America allergic to small cars?

[–] Lv_InSaNe_vL@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Trucks are incredibly useful?

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Sure but not every single person needs a truck? My comment isn’t even intending to hate on trucks, I literally just want a small car that’s electric. I don’t drive often and I want something that’s electric but doesn’t take up much space

I will buy this immediately if it's even close to this price point.

[–] Gowron_Howard@lemm.ee 17 points 6 days ago

This is a truck I’d actually feel comfortable driving. Unlike those gender affirming, semi truck adjacent, embarrassing pavement princess trucks that you see everywhere now.

[–] DrownedRats@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Yes, more of this please!

No idea why it has no stereo though. That feels like a pretty basic feature. Doesnt even need to be built in. Just iso standard head unit bay would do.
