Give me a truck the size of the old rangers or Chevy S10 that's an EV

I don't want a swollen monstrosity that's also an EV

I really feel like Ford Maverick EV and PHEV options would do great.

I just don't understand how they have lower towing capacity than a minivan. I have a very small travel trailer, and they can't even tow that.

I really want to want one, but it just doesn't work for me.

Minivans are just trucks with a different body. Ford rangers are sedans with a truck bed. That’s why.
