I still don’t understand why anyone would buy that ugly thing other than to intentionally look like a douche bag. It’s the modern H2.


I like H2s.

That was awfully specific

There's a chart, cross-referenced with pecker size, and years financed.

A lot OT posters. have a gift of male evaluation, just by seeing a vehicle.

In the US we have the Tesla Cybertruck, Rivian R1T, Ford Lightning, GMC Hummer EV, GMC Sierra EV, and the Chevy Silverado EV.

Tesla and Rivian are easily the two highest sellers however both of them group their truck sales w/other vehicles (Tesla w/X & S, Rivian w/R1S & the delivery van) so it's hard to know the actual amount sold to customers that are on the road.

Just quit making EV’s all together.


I put $100 deposit on the new scout truck EV. It will have an option for a small gas tank (speculation is 5-7 gallon).

I think this is a great hedge. Right around $50k

For the built in, gas powered generator...interesting.

It even has a 240V outlet.

The purpose of the cyber truck is to prove out a mineral delivery vehicle that will be used on Mars.

It has absolutely zero to do with being a great truck right here right now in the US.

Musk is thinking 10 years ahead of everyone else.

He gets 1 million test cases and people help him pay for it.

Demolition Man had some cool futuristic designs for vehicles....the Cyber Truck is more like something from that shitty movie Freejack
