    I wish they made a 2 door, long bed option. Also, if the truck isn't going to be used for towing anyway, there should be an EV version.

    sure, though the 4 foot bed was designed to handle more then you think as they were pretty clever. the hybrid is that nice middle ground where i have the long range of an ice engine, and can get 55 mpg. i also don’t have access to charging for my vehicle. as i mentioned for me it fits perfectly

    I was excited for half a second when I heard about the Slate truck. Then I found out it's a short bed (which I could live with) and backed by Bezos. And the cynic in me assumes it's still going to be locked down enshitified garbage regardless.
