If they made a little EV pickup with a 2 seater cab, 6ft bed, basic backup camera and a 200 mile range for 20k, I’d buy one tomorrow.

There was a rumor GM is making the LUV truck but electric. I’m not a bowtie person anymore but I would have a downpayment on one in a heartbeat.

This, an electric Ranger is 10x more useful than a crew cab Ram with a 4 foot box, super nova headlights and a 12L V8 un-tuned diesel.

There used to be an Electric Ranger, but the snag was that the range was so low that it was only sold for institutional / commercial campus use – I think it had a 60 mile range, and took overnight to charge.

Oh man, that’s what I want! My commute is 30 miles round trip and it’s shift work so there is at least 10hrs of charging time between commutes.

Pick up a 10 year old Tesla – they’re cheap and they have lots of battery life for short commutes.
