The first EV I might buy.

Composite panels so won't rust and in the winter. I seldom drive over 50 miles round trip in the winter anyway.

I hope it can tow my 1800 pound snowmobile trailer and snowmobile 20 to 100 miles round trip.

That will save my Excursion and Jeep with less rust to drive in the non salt months.

I already don't drive my Unimogs in the salt.

We watched a movie recently made within the last few years using cars from the late 50’s - late 60’s. For some reason the director had the actors crank on the windows like it was some kind of a laborsome chore.

IMO, there’s nothing wrong with crank windows. Our Polaris UTV has them, my 52 Dodge has them.
