It appears the belief in climate change is driving a lot of this type of thing.
Hey, I fervently believe in climate change!
Climate’s been changing, cyclically, for thousands of years.
But “fatal” anthropomorphic CC is a cooked-up load of crap designed to enslave humanity to the global elite. THAT’s the issue. 😏
I don't at all understand the push for large EV pickups. If someone is in the market for an EV because they believe it saves the world or whatever, why spend extra for a large pickup that requires more time to charge the larger battery (or less range because it's a normal size EV battery powering a large truck)? The best I can figure is that it's catering to the greenie-save-the-world-with-EV's consumers who also want to feel like they're big boys who can take care of business with a fake manly looking truck.
From an EV throughput perspective (i.e. miles/kWh, charging speed and wait time, range), the large EV pickups are horrible. Especially if you actually use them like a truck and haul a heavy load (greatly reducing range).
