The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price.

    Currently I need a small form electric truck with at least 2ft of ground clearance and preferably no giant nose on the front that small children can hide behind, with at least 100mi of travel on one charge and the ability to go 300mi in one day with full size charging stations.

    You want to go back in time and get the Chevy S-10 Electric from the late 90s.

      Hell yeah. I’ve actually used the S10 as an example of the max size I want a truck to be. Stretch the cab forward to the unnecessary engine bay and make it a crew cab with no nose.

      At this point I’d take a modern truck if it was offered, but I’d be looking to trade for something smaller immediately. Modern trucks are just too grossly oversized, and I, as an adult, often can barely see over the hood of modern trucks. And tons of trucks around here have lift kits installed, making them even less safe for pedestrians
