Umm. We said as much when they showed off their truck fantasy fiction video.

Concept vehicles are an elaborate joke played on consumers.

I'll NEVER buy another dodge product.... Currently I drive a Ram 2500 van. It ate $8000 at 104,000 for motor work and now, at 205,000 the transmission is toast...so...another $8k. So, I quit. Ordered a MY as I wait for my cybertruck. I'll save the RAM for when I NEED it, but will live with the MY until the CT finally gets here! Unless there is no bed slide...a truck without a bed slide is of zero use for me....no way to access the "up front" stuff without crawling around, not gonna happen.

At 205,000, my cost per mile on the RAM 2500 van is somewhere north of .45 per mile.

If anyone would bother to check out the charging network before buying...nobody would sign up for the misery of the non-Tesla public charging disaster!

Dodge makes great vehicles. Itโ€™s the dealership experience that keeps me away from buying that brand name. Iโ€™ll stick with the Tesla buying experience!
At this point, Iโ€™m very much wait and see with anything from legacy auto. Iโ€™m sure the REV will have a good ride and a fantastic interior. But itโ€™s very much a generation 1 product competing against generation 2-3+ competitors.

You may be right, but hybrids are a technology that was outdated by the time it became mainstream. (Porsche produced the first hybrid in 1900). IMHO, hybrids are what you build when you can't quite build an EV (whether for lack of tech or batteries). It's sink or swim, manufacturers will transition to EV's or die a slow, twisted, torturous, painful, cash strapped, gov't sponsored death.
