I'm very open minded and forward thinking. **** I drive a Prius when physically going to work(remote access now for COVID) so electric is an exciting future but boy that doesn't excite me anymore than Tesla cybertruck. Looks way too much like a Jeep gladiator except less attractive if that's even possible.

I'm in the minority. Seems Like people love their Jeep styling. Just my opinion. But in all seriousness I'm happy to see competition. Could mean a good future for electric vehicles and trucks in specific.

Don't you buy no ugly truck... And that is ONE ugly truck.

I really don't care what it looks like as long as it functional and comfortable.
Interesting concept I don't care for the pass thru concept, just as soon the passenger compartment and the cargo box are separate.
The price is out of line and I would rather have a bit less power and more range.

Looks like a big black (expensive) turd to me. Reminds me of the new Jeep pickup truck (also a turd). I'm sure it will become a big seller.... Not.

Wonder how that tow capacity relates to range? Probably 50 miles tops. Why not buy a real truck. You can get a F350 or a Sierra 3500 with a diesel, loaded for 80 which in my view is also highway robbery but $125K is insane. I'm sure wannabe drivers will buy them but I wonder just how many wannabees there are with 125K kicking around that want to invest in a depreciating investment.

Ditto, if it does what i want, i don't care what color it is.

I agree the styling isn't the greatest, but I'd go more for spartan than ugly. Clearly, wind resistance wasn't high on their design priorities...that thing must be about as aerodynamic as a refrigerator.
Still better looking than the Tesla truck.

$125K, 7.5 K tow capacity?
Buy 2 or 3 F150's.

Payload=5,000 lb., way more than an F-150.
