Yes, zero connectivity, relatively affordable, highly customizeable, and repair-friendly (for now). The only connectivity is through the phone app. Only downside is you have to buy a stupid truck. They could have made it a **lot** cheaper as a coupe.

    I think it's a truck for regulatory reasons. Trucks get a pass on a bunch of things that can be a regulatory issue for cars, because of course they do. They are offering kits to make it a van or SUV. Still no coupe, but better than a truck for many purposes.

    Not really true for pricing. A small truck isn't much more weight or material than a sedan.
