I have a thirty-five-year-old truck and it's still perfectly fine for my hauling needs but out of curiosity I looked at what new trucks or minivans might be appropriate replacements when the time comes. A huge fraction of the trucks I looked at were comically gaudy and large, even the base models oozed luxury, and most were clearly designed around projecting a certain kind of image rather than prioritizing utility.
I was reading about kei trucks when I came across Telo[1], a startup working on a US-legal electric kei truck. Depending on ground clearance that might tick every box for me even though I don't live in a city. They've got a steep hill ahead of them; I hope they succeed.
