Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Whatever happened to smaller Ford Ranger type trucks?

Ford's compact truck is called the Maverick now. Unfortunately, it's actually an Ute (like an El Camino) not a real truck, because it's unibody instead of body-on-frame, but it's the closest we're gonna get. Honda and Hyundai also make kinda-small unibody kinda-trucks, by the way.

Really small trucks, like '80s Nissan P'ups and VW Rabbit Pickups, continue to no longer exist.

The El Camino was body on frame, it was a "real" truck!
