- Animats 6y agoRefundable, too. Still, it's so expensive GM will make money on it. They probably won't have any problem making however many people are willing to order. It's a niche item, though. Ford has an electric F-150 truck coming out.[1] Ford's goal is to make a cost-effective work truck, not a "lifestyle vehicle". If they succeed at that, the impact on the industry will be huge.

- KozmoNau7 6y agoIf they want to make it a good work truck, they need to bring the bed back down to a reasonable level. It's ridiculously high now.
- jessaustin 6y agoAmen, brother. Modern bed height is untenable. I'm 6', and I can only reach the tools that miraculously didn't roll more than a foot from the side. All day, it's constant climbing up on the tire or bumper. Sometimes something is close enough to reach by jumping and belly-flopping over the side. Give me an old Toyota mini pickup any day. Misguided people will tell us that it's all about 4WD, but you see the same phenomenon in 2WD trucks and besides it didn't used to take so much clearance to add another differential under the engine and engines are smaller now anyway. The real reason is to sell pickups to people who don't need pickups. If they worked for a living they'd get annoyed just like we are. They should have been sold lift kits instead.
