It's a SUV EV whose drivers (so far as I can tell) are just as bad as tesla drivers.

something about paying 120k+ for a truck that's not built by an actual car company.

They have a truck and SUV. The truck is kinda neat because it has a compartment at the front of the bed that can mount pullout accessories like a kitchenette for use while camping.

They're actually a bit cheaper at around $80k-$90k which is a lot of money no doubt, but not out of line for other trucks that also won't be used for 'real truck stuff' like 90% of truck owners.

Nobody is taking a 90k luxury truck camping- sorry. The interior would be ruined after a single fishing trip, nevermind actually going off onto dirt roads (or no-roads,)

These are being sold to city-dwellers that want to convince people they’re not city dwellers. (Same as the trucks you mentioned.)

How would the interior be ruined after a fishing or camping trip? This makes me think you've never been fishing or camping.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Mud, sand rocks from wading, etc.

Unless you’re talking about taking kids off a pier, fishing is not a clean sport.
