Opinion: Personally I’m not too into the pickup segment let alone an electric Santa Cruz but hey, something new! We’ll see how it shakes out.

Another Minivan missing part of its roof. For fuck sakes car makers, electric Ford ranger Chevy S10 sized vehicle. For a reasonable price. The Maverick proves that people want and will buy pickups that size.

Preach it. A PHEV maverick would be amazing.

If they actually made enough of them. Out of all these hard to get cars, the Maverick is a unicorn. Ive seen maybe less than a handful on the road since theyve come out. Ive seen more Hummer EVs than Mavericks, considering that ones a rare sight too, given the cost of one.

That might be based on where you live. Im in Austin TX and I see several mavericks every day but I think I’ve only seen 1 Hummer EV in the wild.

I also see a Rivian every day. But then I had a 8 hour road trip and I never saw once I got out of Austin.

Oh yeah I see rivians all the time. But then again, EVs are popular here.

They make plenty, just no one wants a unibody/fwd/generally incapable pickup.

If Ford made regular cab 6' bed maverick with a manual I'd be all over it. Nobody makes a truly small pickup with a 6' bed anymore. In the US at least. I miss my Comanche.

They could if they didn't insist on making every truck a four door

They have to make every one the same config, its a unibody not a body on frame design. More in common with a civic than a ranger.

Can't. EPA and safety regs say you can't.
