I see what you did there.
Is this a $20k kit car or a $20k truck that they build for you?
Both options available
Hmm, apparently so. I am going to assume if they build it for you it'll cost more. Also I found the configurator
This is my ideal build: https://www.slate.auto/share/5VXBMW
I could barely make it out, but the tires on this build here are 255/70R17, which are effectively 31" tires. Great size. I was just talking to my wife last night about how I'd absolutely DD an older Jeep Cherokee XJ, slightly lifted on 31s (I used to have a 1998 XJ just like that), but the fuel economy would be abysmal at best. This thing, however, optioned with the big battery, would cost me roughly $10 at most to charge from empty to full, which is really nice.
The lack of AWD is a bummer, but not entirely a deal-breaker. I'd absolutely rock this little thing on some of the local 4WD trails.
Toyota Tacoma didn’t exist in 1985. The first model year was 1995. Did you mean a 1985 toyota pickup/hilux?

I've heard this song before. Lordstown Motors, for example.
If they can get some trucks rolling out the door, I'll get interested real quick.
Can someone please convert some of these numbers to freedom units? Specifically the range, horsepower, torque, and 0-60 numbers?
0-60mph is mostly deprecated these days in favor of 0-62mph, which just so happens to be the same as 0-100km/h
what a coincidence!
I'm aware of this, and it's not the same because there is a 2 MPH difference. So the 0-60 number will be smaller, albeit slightly.
