There's a vehicle missing from the American market — small enough for a real garage, cheap enough to skip the seven-year loan, built well enough to outlast it. Here's why we're bringing REO back to build it. 1901 Ransom E. Olds builds the Curved Dash Runabout — America’s first mass-produced car. $650, about $25,000 today. 1905 Pushed out of Oldsmobile, Olds founds REO under his own initials. 1915 The REO Speed Wagon arrives — the ancestor of the modern pickup. 1975 REO closes after seventy years of honest American trucks. 2026 REO returns to build the affordable American truck no one else will. No automaker has ever done this — and that’s exactly the problem. We’re the first to put parts and community in the open, because this truck should belong to the people who drive it, not to a profit machine built on gatekeeping. We earn through transparency and relationships that work both ways. Here, the OEM is your friend. Right to repair, stocked. Buy direct — opens with launch Run by us. We actually listen. Reservation holders get into the Owners’ Club first Coverage from the field Curated links · newest coverage first Field Issue $27.50 Structured black snapback with the REO mark up front. $27.50 First-run REO tee for the people bringing simple trucks back. Size $27.50 Lightweight technical cap for shop days, trail days, and long hauls. Contact Press, suppliers, partners, and the merely curious — we read every message and answer fast. Want a truck?
