Unless they regularly haul, like, furniture, even people who have to drive on steep inclines or off-road would probably be better off with a Jeep or SUV (and electrical vehicles are actually really good for driving on inclines)
They are all the same. A f150 has same gas image as jeep and if you need to haul you have a bed. No one drives a jeep or suv because they get better gas mileage than a truck.
That's not true.
Ford F150: ~17 MPG (https://www.fuelly.com/car/ford/f-150)
Jeep Cherokee: ~22 MPG (https://www.fuelly.com/car/jeep/cherokee)
Audi Q5: ~25 MPG (https://www.fuelly.com/car/audi/q5)
Those are pretty big differences, and on top of that most SUVs are also safer than an F150 (both for the driver+passengers, because they aren't as rigid, and the people you might collide with). If you do need to haul furniture like twice a year, you can still rent a pickup truck.
