    Remember when pickup truck occupant capacity was measured in seats, rather than rows? When trucks were attainable workhorses, rather than near-six-figure luxobarges with front ends designed to look angry and do maximum damage to pedestrians? It seems Jeff Bezos remembers, because he spun up a section of Amazon to bring that very concept back for the EV age — a section of Amazon that's now struck out on its own as a startup called Slate Auto.
