We just picked up ours, waiting on the charger, the low power charging just does not cut it when you live a 15 min drive from town, nice drive though
 
Saw a Kia EV9 (rando google pic). It feels like they took the Telluride & ran it through an 80's futuristic movie, like BTTF II.

It's not a Ford Flex?

Awhile back I was reading an article in Car & Driver about the EV9 and they had a small Q&A with Tom Kearns who is one of the chief design engineers for Kia's new line of EVs. He's a huge fan of Ford and admitted that some of the design elements in Kia's new line of EVs harken back to older Ford designs.

On a side note he is also a huge Nine Inch Nails fan and modeled Kia's new logo after theirs. Once you see it you can't unsee it.

I first several times I saw the logo, I figured the cars were driven by NIN fans. Eventually, I noticed it was KIA.

I saw this the other day and thought it was a really cool looking reasonably sized pickup by Ford.

I love my Maverick. Back in June of '21 when the order banks opened I special ordered one from Ford. It's very similar to the one in your photo. It has done 99% of the "truck stuff" I need it to do and it seats our family of four adults comfortably.

For the other 1% it can't do I purchased a cheap 8x10 trailer to load certain things that won't fit in the bed but that it a rare occasion.

I know you are probably thinking "Wait a minute this guy thinks the CT is kinda cool, subscribes to Car & Driver, and bought a four door Mustang. He's just another white guy with a small dick so no way he bought a little truck like that. He's the type of guy to buy a F-150 Raptor".

Here's a pic of the truck and trailer. Love my Maverick.

That's a nice truck with clean lines.

I never said anything about the Ford Mustang EV because I have nothing against it 🙂

Listen, sorry if I've been a bit priggish, you seem like a good dude. I think you will look back at your Elon/CT phase as poor decision making during a mid-life crisis or something like that. Elon is a terrible person and the CT is an unrefined and unfinished product that happens to be hideous. I'm having a mid-life crisis so really, we all go through it in different ways.

When my current truck dies I've been waffling between the Maverick and the Ranger. I'm kind of a bigger guy, so I'm leaning toward the Ranger.
