For sure the next offering will be 4x4 option. Perhaps after that a four door version.

Honestly, I don’t see this truck being a highway runner. It is much much more suited to being on the city streets, country roads or on the dirt and gravel of the country side. Just one (old)man’s opinion.

Oh, I don’t know?🤷‍♂️ How about Music Row in Nashville TN for those of us in South East/Mid West.
