Is the Honda Ridgeline not a truck? Ford Maverick? The cybertruck is simply the biggest thing in that segment.


Kind of. They're what I would call a ute. They're still car based vehicles with beds. But that doesn't mean they can't do 90% of what the average person uses a truck for. They just aren't as stout as a body on frame truck and won't take as much abuse. But use them for their intended purpose and they'll do just fine.


Fine then, Jeep Comanche. It's on a purpose built truck/suv platform.

The point here is that you're using generalities that are wayyyy too broad.

There's no reason a body on frame vehicle can't be stout. See every unibody fullsize van for example.


Both of those cars have more real world (i.e long distance) towing capacity than a cyber truck.


The Honda Ridgeline if confidently NOT a truck.
