So what? Should no basic, inexpensive vehicles be produced because you could get a nicer or more capable used one for a similar price?
Also, this one is electric. Sans the Cybertruck, there aren't too many electric pickups out there, and probably not many on the used vehicle market.
I'm all for basic, inexpensive vehicles. This isn't basic, it's threadbare. And it isn't inexpensive, either.
