Here we are again. People "don't need" that truck, so buy a small ev, it is cheaper!
Meanwhile, I specifically referenced prople buying trucks for work.
And if they do not, a small gas powered is far cheaper that a small ev. Remember, I referenced poor, which means save NOW!, or where do you think all that well known credit card debt comes from.
Planning for future maintenance costs takes a back seat, when poor.
And so here we show an elitist, hand wavy response. Telling the person referenced as "need a truck for work", no, you don't!
Yes, I’m aware. It’s still true that most people do not need a truck for work, even if you look exclusively at the subset of people who buy a truck for work. One of the interesting things about getting out of affluent areas is that you see far fewer trucks – go somewhere poor and it’s a lot more small cars because they cost less to buy, maintain, and use half as much fuel.
Again, it’s not that _nobody_ uses one but that it’s a much smaller fraction of the total market. We can reduce emissions considerably without inconveniencing anyone and over time all of the used EVs on the market will improve the low-cost options.

Not helpful, but elitist, exclusionist.
