Hi all,
Just wanted to hear new owners' opinion, particularly those who purchased a new truck within the past year: did you or do you have any concerns about what the future value of your trucks will be given the slowly but surely transition to EVs?
I'm hesitant to get one, afraid that 5-7 years down the road the truck will be nearly worthless if electric pick-up cars start gaining steam. I know the same holds to just about any combustion vehicle on the road, but trucks are special animal in the sense they are major gas guzzlers. Imagine the slump in sales and demand for combustion trucks once EV trucks becomes prevalent and reasonably priced. Some countries have already started banning combustion engine production 2-3 years from now.
Thoughts?
