Because nobody wants the Electric vehicles they make.
It’s not nobody; they’re actually selling a lot. It’s that they’re building large expensive pickup trucks, rather than trying for smaller cheaper vehicles that appeal to a big chunk of the population
I don’t see it personally. That doesn’t mean I don’t agree with you, because I do, but people buying expensive trucks don’t have interest from what I’ve seen. They either buy that expensive gas truck, or buy Rivian, that’s just from me seeing buying and selling cars for work.
There are pretty intense local brand preferences. Nationally Ford has been selling more
… and removing options from those versus the ICE versions. In my case, removing the front-row middle seat option from the F-150 Lightning took that sonofabitch off my preferred next-vehicle list. Can’t fit my whole family? Don’t want it.
Mock me for having a large family that restricts my choice in vehicles, but consider: I could just buy what I want and cart them everywhere with two+ vehicles like our neighbors and extended family do with their large broods.
There is no up-shot to removing passenger capacity from a vehicle. Not when so many EV’s have a got-damn Frunk.
