There is some truth to that. I would love to have something like my old T100 (not a small truck, but not full size either) in an EV. It doesn't need to do the quarter mile in 11 seconds. It doesn't need 500 mile range. It doesn't need to look like something roaming the surface of Mars. I just want an affordable pickup to do what I do with my present vehicle, haul kayaks in the bed and the occasional piece of furniture and bag of peet moss.
It is interesting you mentioned Toyota T100. Many people attribute the smaller size as the primary reason why T100 was not a sales success for Toyota. They came back with Tundra (true full size truck) and they did and are doing substantially better.
I currently drive a Tundra and it has not been garaged since I purchased it about 10 years ago. What is the big deal about not fitting in the garage. It has bullet proof body and windows. I personally prefer the full pickup size. I would not mind charging it outside.
