I'd be very interested in Rivian if it wasn't such a luxury price. I've wanted an EV truck ever since that news article about the guy in Texas powering his home from an F150 Lightning.

But the price, coupled with the mass spying in every new vehicle... Looking like it will be used ICE cars for me pretty much indefinitely.

I wish the Bollinger trucks had worked out; that utilitarian design ethos really nailed it.

My family is sticking with our old Toyota pickup for the same reasons you mention. It would be nice to completely stop burning fuel, but in practice we've already electrified our everyday travel by switching to bikes and scooters.
