It's weird to see a new vehicle announced like this that's not an EV. I wonder what it's like launching a gas truck when new battery-powered trucks are looming in the distance (or already here).

Is there anything special in making a $21k gas truck in 2026? I’m guessing you could get a second hand gas truck for this price?

I’ll save my money for the 2030 Speedwagon.

My first reaction after seeing a website with vibecoded aesthetics was to wonder if this is even real, but apparently, it is - at least to the extent of getting some press coverage:

Sure, a Tacoma with 100k miles on it already...

Depends on the truck. Pickups in the US can get very expensive very quickly, they’re basically luxury vehicles and they retain their value better for some reason I haven’t really looked in to. Budget trucks are not as plentiful, $21,500 is a pretty competitive price.

There are golf carts/lsv's that cost 15k-20k these days and a fiat 500 is 25k iirc, for perspective
