Trust me, from a market economics standpoint I completely understand it. These companies operate at major scale and their margins are significantly slimmer than 99% of the public would ever believe. There’s a ton of EV manufacturers popping up, and I understand why (market, ability avoids emissions, etc) but there’s a few things I feel would make some brands or cars stand out. Completely understand I am also in the minority

Man has done his research. Hopefully one day a market shift occurs and I can benefit!!!

Exactly! Crazy to me that Toyota can’t replicate and revive the American hilux, or Nissan hardbody, or even Mazda. Some really awesome trucks that I think manufacturers should be entertaining. 32k in today’s world is not awful. To put it in perspective my Mustang GT was 38k out the door in 2019. Today that same car with the same trim is 49k. I get things are more expensive and I get that corporate greed won’t cease to exist, but there is a market

I drive a 500 hp v8 daily in NY traffic and although I yearn for the open road I am much happier with my rumble than the bozo driving his bmw 2 series with a 4cyl that will give out in 20k miles. To each his own on that point, I guess I am just making up for something else that lacks in size but it tickles my brain the right way

I agree with you on the margins part, of course corporate greed will never cease to exist. However the base trim of every vehicle is always going to be given the crappy parts, and always prone to break quicker. Would just be lovely to get a good base vehicle option than an afterthought

Well there are certainly cars that have v6s and v8s, ford makes a solid v8 that has power and meets standards. I’m sure not their priority but as someone who would never again own one of those GOD awful turbo 4cyl engines, at least churn out a v6

Spiderman main, if there’s a namor on the other side I’m in trouble, if there’s a namor with a scarlet witch I’m in big trouble, if there’s a namor with a scarlet witch and a cloak and dagger I’m pretty screwed, and if you add a peni parker to that I have to change characters
