    I’m not against them but when Donut got one, my impression was that it was a poorly constructed albeit luxurious golf-cart

      Realistically, that’s all most people need. And for the price of a nicer MacBook, you can’t really complain.

      The only real issue is safety, that might add a few hundreds or thousands.

    So it’s good if you can and enjoy fixing, replacing, and tinkering a lot - not if you want something reliable and durable - which is what I expect from electronics I import from China.

      The only thing that had broken was one of the rear reflectors, and that’s only because my dad crushed it

      After two years of near-daily use, the truck is holding up admirably. I know that fact is going to drive the haters up a wall

      Bruh, of all possible criticisms?

          shocks for comfort, tires wear out, and he put a bed liner in like the vast majority of trucks have. Nothing out of the ordinary.

            The shocks were the wrong stiffness for the application, the tires wore out very quickly, and I forgot that the seats were also disintegrating after only two years. That’s not what I expect from a light truck or any other quality farm equipment. This is a vehicle for somebody who wants to continually maintain and upgrade it.
