Wonderful people, may I present you with our great savior who greased the wheels through lobbying to shove the most glutinous, polluting and debt-ridden garbage down our throats for decades. May he save us from ourselves!
Exactly. Ford invested heavily in promoting SUVs and pickups for years because they were more profitable for Ford than hatchbacks and sedans as far as ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles go, but the market shift to EVs flips that dynamic on its head.
Talk about karma.
Years ago I wanted to buy a new small pickup truck and couldn’t find one. I would have loved to buy a small, practical Ford Ranger but they weren’t available because Ford was gaming the system with vehicle sizes. Eventually I just gave up and reexamined my priorities in a vehicle.
Sounds like a limp effort is coming

that’s a great name for a sticker to put on all stupidly large trucks
Right next to the Punisher thin blue line sticker
I’d settle for a reasonably priced EV ranger at this point.
Ford has a PHEV version coming to Aus (next year?), so willing to bet they also do a full EV one too.
