I’ve been seeing a lot of weird culture war coverage around this, even more than usual these days. Big fan of cheap, simple, accessible technology and tools. Cars are tools. Less components and less complexity means they are cheaper to produce and maintain. Bring back the econobox, the car I’m hype for is the electric equivalent of a 94 Corolla
Heck yeah, plenty of room for batteries down low under the bed and it’d help out with the mini truck achilles’s heel of poor traction unloaded. I’ve thought about a conversion like that a lot too, rwd only would be easy

I’ve always thought an electric 94 Ranger would be pretty dope.

Also, cars that are excessively safe for their occupants tend to make them deadlier to other road users.
