those are literally the three things that are a major pain in the neck for me [sedan], and when I saw that tesla was developing a truck, I was like "oh sweet! Now I can hit the trails and haul garden supplies with a greater level of convenience, and without smuggering up the earth as much!"

Rental might be a “different” option than buying a newly produced 2.7 metric tons truck?!
You're right of course -- however, I don't really like going off-road in rental vehicles

Never been a problem for me with a Honda Fit, at it's a subcompact with a footprint of a VW beetle. The seats fold down almost into the floor, giving me plenty of cargo space.
My friend had a minivan with folding seats, he used to carry his enduro motorcycle in it.
I have a hard time believing anyone living in a city needs a truck for anything except work.
In case you haven't seen it yet, the Rivian R1T is explicitly targeting that use case.
nice, thanks for the tip!
