Re:Tesla orders its first 8k-ton Cybertruck casting machine by anonfornoreason on Sunday March 21, 2021 @01:16AM (#26528286)
The automakers don’t manufacture many low end trucks for what it’s worth. Yes you can buy a fleet ready vehicle if you have a fleet, but no dealer is stocking anything in the last year except the luxury trim. Parts shortages and unprecedented demand (people buying camping trailer sand trucks due to Covid) have broken the market.

Source: myself having gone through process of buying a truck a few months ago. Looked at mid size trucks (I own acreage, making hobby farm), but only could find the 60k optioned vehicles. Ended up full-size luxury trim due to tax break possibilities plus only available stock. Pretty wild right now. Used market also hosed, almost price of new.
