This is basically why I didn't participate in the fandom for many years. Tired of hearing how bad this is or whatever. And this goes back to Next Gen, too. I found I enjoyed Star Trek more without everyone else's opinions.
It's a lot like this. (Thanks to The Oatmeal for putting it so well.)
Very few people actually ever tow anything (and I say that as someone who regularly does tow things). But even then, I can keep our ice pickup and replace our car that we drive every day with an ev.
We won't, though, because the current situation in the US means us taking on new debt would be dumb.
Some instances have a pretty low limit for picture sizes.

Disco Stu doesn't advertise!
We keep one of our cat carriers out because one of our cats likes to curl up in it.
We had to take another cat to the vet a few weeks ago, so I went to grab it... Nope, occupied, with the wrong cat. Rather than deal with that, I just got a different carrier.
We have two that are getting up there in age. They're both active, but the signs are there. One has irritable bowel syndrome and asthma is on medication for both. His black fur has faded in some spots, too - not much, but there are definitely spots that are a bit more brown in his legs.
The other seems healthy, but his urine had some protein and there is a slightly elevated number in his bloodwork for his liver (I think). The vet isn't sure what those mean yet, and they want him to get an ultrasound (they just told us yesterday, and we haven't had the chance to schedule it yet).
It's possible he also has IBS, which would at least mean we're used to dealing with it. He's already eating the right food.
Odds are good we have years with them yet, but it's a sign they're getting older, and a reminder that some day they'll be gone. :(
That is Chekov's trainer!
Working in the meme factory can change a man.
I mean, are there any cars available in the US for just $20k? I'm pretty sure a base Mazda 3 was more than that when we bought ours five years ago (before the pandemic, and ours is a higher trim model). I don't think they're making the really small cars any more (like the Toyota Yaris).
Short version, I'm skeptical of this price point for even a small pickup. Great if they can do it.
The turnout will be about 10 people.
