Why doesn’t he just say they actually make real trucks?

Because unlike recent examples, the CEO of Ford has experience in wording his statements to maximize investor value.

Gatekeeping dumbass. All he had to say is "Ford has made trucks its entire existence. We'll check in with Tesla in a hundred years." or some other macho check the scoreboard type statement. Instead he tried to pander to his percieved audience with a us vs them trope.

Most people who buy pickups don't need them. Pickup trucks have historically succeeded because of the light truck loophole in US fuel efficiency regulations.
