I think Teslas are actually cheapest, by brand.
> It frustrates me that US car manufacturers continue to make exclusively heavy, low-efficiency vehicles.
The market has decided that they want cars from Toyota and trucks from Detroit. I can't really blame the automakers from focusing on what makes them the best profit.
I'd dispute the low efficiency claim. My Ford pickup is way more efficient than anything Toyota makes. And even strictly comparing like-for-like, Toyota is on the lower efficiency end of that market.
