The Cybertruck is sort of the El Camino of EV trucks.

They were like fully functioning show cars.
I built the 1/25th scale model back in the day.

My comment on the original post summed up the project as creating an EV system then wrapping it in rust. I’m amending that to “wrapping it in rust and feces.”

So, basically, develop an EV powertrain then wrap it in rust.

I once made the mistake of going with the cheapest. (Well, I didn’t have much choice at the time, given the sad condition of my bank account.) It turned out the chain’s house brand was total crap — out of round with fast tread wear. I got rid of them as soon as I could afford to and bought a set of Coopers. Totally…

Sport SUV = Sport Sport Utility Vehicle

Just leave those crates out there to keep them from cutting the corner.

That Skoda reminds me of the ‘58 Simca my mother drove—and hated.

Bell? Horn? Whistle? How about a disintegrating ray to be employed against the horrible drivers around us?

“...period-appropriate BBS units.” The design, yes. The size, no. Also the bumpers are the non-5mph Euro versions. And the winglet isn’t stock.

And, as you can see, steelies are the perfect 4x4 wheels.

“Once upon a time, trucks were meant for work.” Yup, this is an honest, unpretentious truck—like they all used to be.

I have average sized hands and the 12 Mini is Goldilocks-just-right size I want. I’m just waiting for the price to drop when it becomes out of date. Looks like I won’t have to wait as long as I thought.

I had to verify this article wasn’t a crosspost from The Onion.

How long before we’ll need to do something else before getting permission to send a text to get permission to call?

“...my shins don’t have the means to use anything down there...” I’ve owned a couple of cars where the console bug into the side of my right shin. My shin could’ve used some empty space.

Bring back 2-toned trucks, please. From the factory, not just by the occasional enterprising dealer.

When they did this swap on Overhaulin’, I think the guy who ended up with a Magnum grill on his donor 300 got the better end of the deal. I hated the egg crate 300 grill. That front end looked pudgy.

What no slanted headlight covers to make your Bronco look pissed off? No toothy grill surrounds?

Ah, so that’s what style that pizza is. When I lived in Charlotte NC there was a joint, which I later learned was part of a small chain, that did rectangular thick crust pies almost identical to the one in the photo. I thought it was perfect.

But to be fair, small town mechanics don’t have the overhead metro area mechanics do.
