    The Ford Mavericks and the Hyundai Santa Cruz will get you close (but def. not fiesta dimensions). Drove an F-150 for years. I’d do a proper “ute” if they were available but there are finally some tiny “pickups” out there. There’s tradeoffs, and I miss my F-150 for a lot, but not enough.

      I’d probably own a maverick if they made a plug-in hybrid version. The 2025 model finally added AWD to the 2.4L hybrid, but they also deleted 90% of the buttons on the dash in favor of a bigger touch screen. *And it’s still a little too big

        oh nice! I didn’t see they did AWD. But yeah, it turns out even “small” US pickups are still large. Not a fan of the button delete, I’ll have to look into that. I’m pretty happy in my 2022 SC, but I’ve made some mods. What I miss about proper “utes” is the cab over engine design and big cabs. I do love my SC but as a taller dude, I fit better in my F-150
