Really, because looking out my window I see at least 6 close to $70K trucks (4 F250s and 2 Rapters).

It's trying to pull GLS and X7 buyers, just like Tesla went after S-class and M5 with the model S and not Taurus and Malibus. I'm sure Ford appreciates not having their sales poached given their $500m investment in Rivian. |

In the end, I hope Rivian sells hundreds of thousands of their trucks, the more brands we have available to us the better we all are.

Ford and Subaru have built airplanes Chrysler built rockets (they built the first stage of the Saturn V) Ford built Mission Control for the moon race (through their Philco division). GM basically invented the diesel-electric train engine (later sold to Caterpillar) Buick built the original Hellcat (a WWII tank) and Chrysler built the M1 tank. Toyota builds prefab housing in Japan. GM built the first mechanical heart. Of course most of them have built tractors. Mitsubishi builds a little bit of everything. I'm sure there are lots of other examples.

Somehow, these just wouldn't look right on this truck.

I started to watch a review and lost interest when the spare wheel was shown. One has to lift it up and out of the tray as opposed to winding it down from underneath.
