Nikola pickup

Googled images of that truck look pretty sweet. Along with several other cars, we're about to be in two-tone heaven.

Maybe GM will spin off the ICE stuff LOL

If Ford is reading here, they must think they've got most everything wrong and are taking a step back to figure out what customers really want. That could very well delay things if that's the case.

And they need to tell their "bean counters" that the people want what the people want. Let the engineers & designers do what's needed and Make it work!

Agreed, I am anxious to own the Bronco but am not going to drop 50K and not be able to get the color combo they have been flaunting on the 4 door the past few months. I can wait......

I completely agree. 50 grand is a lot of money to pay for a vehicle your not in love with. I wanted a bronco but at 50 grand I can get a luxury f150 exactly the way I want.

I drove out to Buena Vista today to feast my eyes. My background includes owning an FJ40, FJ60, FJ Cruiser and a 10th anniversary Rubicon. Here are some of my takes:

1. Same size (or seems like) as my 13 10A Rubicon. Dimensions say it's larger but it appears to be about the same.
2. The interior is NICE! I'm not sure why the criticism but it's equal or greater than the FJ Cruiser and the Rubicon.
3. 8 inch screen is a good size. It will not stop me from ordering the 12" but the 8" fits well.
4. Getting in and out of the back seat is about equal to the Rubicon. Not easy but makeable. I needed to check for my dog.
5. We're on the verge of more information being disclosed within the next week. So stayed tuned.

Thank you Nate for all the information provided as well as the pictures! Looking forward to delivery day....whenever that might be.

So....soon? very soon?

 

[MrJoe]

"within a week" or by a week or some week?

 

[Garbone]

I recently saw that GM bought into the Nikola pickup and now own 11%

Ya, about that....

The guy that could touch the vehicle (Tim?) said very soon. Thanks to Nate I had most of my questions answered so I asked him to open up the rear hatch which had the L/R seat laying flat. I asked him to demonstrate how my dog could climb into the rear seat. He opened the rear hatch again, flipped the L/R seat back to normal, walked around to the driver's door. Opened the door, slid the seat all the way forward and threw the driver's seat back forward.

I said that I know everyone has been peppering him with questions I just wanted to know about the white top. He said many of these questions will be answered very soon. Within the next week.

...tease... Do you write movie cliffhangers for a living?

I would also add that I doubt the two door modular top will have removable side glass in the back. I think it's too big. MAN I sure hope so but it's pretty large.

I heard a whisper talk that a ford rep said to somebody at the last event that white tops will not available for the first model year.

While we received confirmation that white tops will be available from another source, they never said for the first model year. Fords been kind of shifty in the way they state things, so I really hope this ain’t true.

OP - Any discussion around that?

And I was told today that Ford will have an announcement regarding tops in the next couple of days. So who knows. My wife was standing right there as well and heard it. And her response to him, you mean that I can get a white top and he laughed and smerked.
