Electric Vehicles

Yeah, the Maverick misses the mark by being roughly the right size, but a teeny-tiny bed for the sake of the crew cab. A car that begrudgingly has a token bed. People have gotten surprisingly good use out of the tiny bed and going to all manners of awkward tailgate-down shenigans to carry things that don't fit, but it's awkward.

The "more passenger space than a RAV4" makes it clear they are going to have an even bigger cab than a maverick, so that's a worrying sign. However, since they seem to also be obsessed with "you can fit your surfboards in the bed", then they may have at least done a mid-gate, and that could get me the sort of truck experience I'd need, with the compromise of being open to the weather to get full bed length. Might suck for trying to haul stuff into super dusty worksites where you'd probably not want to be open to the elements too long, but for me that might be an acceptable compromise (I do have to carry enough passengers to usually need the passenger space, and on the occasion I need to carry something long, I generally have a nice day of weather and don't go anywhere too filthy). Would be better than my current situation where I have to rent a trailer anytime I want to do anything mildly significant to tow with an SUV.
