    Seriously - when do we get something the size of a 90s-era Hilux that’s reasonably performant, but mostly optimized to be a torquey little stuff-hauler? I feel like that would sell like goddamn hotcakes.

      Exactly. That’s basically what I drive now but having a 17 year old truck comes with its downsides

        Heh, I’m not in construction, but I’m still rocking an old 03’ Jetta. The low tech has some downsides… but it’s also got some upsides. For instance, I’m 100% certain my car does not phone home, ever.
