It’s also too big on the cars now, like when (every) boss says “Make the logo bigger” to make himself look like some kind of marketing genius, so they did.

Pontiac LeMans ftw :(

Don’t forget the “Patriot Gold” version, available for a limited time, with a leftover Trump Tourbillon watch embedded in the dash.

Chicken of the Street™

You mean one of those “I BOUGHT A 2011 BMW ALPINA B7!” videos?
That schtick is getting old.

I’m getting previous owner was Mike Tyson vibes.

“We would treat it no differently if it was someone’s F-150 versus a Lamborghini.”

I have a relative who works in the DOT who says he’s very present and positive, and it’s an entirely different environment than when Elaine Chao (Mitch McConnell’s wife) was there. SAD!

In that case the Wright brothers would also like a word.

Nice Price according to Tulsi Gabbard.

Or just hide an Air Tag in it.

Yeah, I thought the same. Some wealthy tech guy with a ranch in Montana he pays other people to run will consider this a chef’s kiss for his little fantasy.

“...EMERGENCY RELEASE LATCHES FOR THE MODEL Y’s REAR DOORS ARE HIDDEN BENEATH A MAT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR POCKET. ONCE THAT’S REMOVED, A RED TAB OPENS AN ACCESS HATCH THAT REVEALS AN EMERGENCY RELEASE CABLE...!”

The last words your fast-googling friend will scream in the seconds between the crash and you all burning…

Nice. 4Runners have gotten way too big, this is more like the 2000-era 4Runners, which are fantastic.

Doors up looks like flying seagull
Doors down looks like fleeing cocaine dealer

There wasn’t a bigger toilet available?

I learned to drive a stick on one of these—my girlfriend’s father had two! No Dice, because I don’t think today’s kids have any idea how loud these things are, like everybody at Home Depot grabbed the nearest can of spray paint and shook it like a Polaroid picture.
The upside was that we also got to drive his Microbus…

Ah. And ha, I never thought even the diecast has its testing phase.

Aren’t they beyond prototype now? The first batch was already introduced in Georgia.

I was a kid when these were around, and they had an aura of “cool” about them—big, stately machines that friends’ parents drove. They look better in darker colors, and as much as I love them I imagine they’re awkward anachronisms now that traffic is heavier and parking spaces seem smaller.
