Especially since Boeing has, since the late 90s, been run entirely by dealmakers willing to do pretty much anything, cut any corner, bribe any program officer, etc. Seriously. I mean, people are aghast at Hegseth, but does anyone remember who he tapped to replace Mattis? Before Esper? Patrick Shanahan. He wasn’t…

Strap a couple SpaceX Rockets to the side too. Go real fast

The pair of planes that will serve as the next Air Force One are more than $2 billion over budget and years behind schedule.

Maybe just a private “preview” flight for Musk and his bestie Trump. Just a demonstration, like how the Cybertruck’s windshield was supposedly bullet proof. Just do that!

MOVE FAST AND BREAK THINGS!!!

I would hate it if the new and improved AF1 crashed into my house, but I would consider making the sacrifice for the good of the world. Though about half the world is unworthy of that sacrifice.  Impacting Mt McKinley or the Gulf of America might be fitting.

I say skip all safety and engine testing and put this plane into service next week dammit!

If it’s just that one plane that both will ride in... I think we could live with it. Yes, I support musk on this one. Rush the job Boeing! Parachutes for everyone else, musk and trump will continue to believe it’s an unsinkable ship

Yes, please rush these planes out without any quality control checks.

wait, wait. Hear me out.
Let’s say we let them rush the planes with the help of Musk. What’s the worst that can happen? Since we know what is Boeing quality control these days....

Exactly.

Collatoral personnel damange is a problem, but the thought of Trump and Musk flying together on a hastily assembled aircraft.... I mean, I see some upside potential. 

Nothing, really - TourX was the only mid-size wagon other than the Acura TSX(?) sold in the US in decades. Now you’re looking at 3 row crossovers as the closest equivalent.

I know what JDM means, but what does it have to do with a Chinese car?

.

JDM?...

Honestly that sounds pretty sick, would love to see photos if you have any!

Back in early 2023, I was blissfully unaware they were making these until I looked over and wondered why there was a Chevy Suburban on the showroom floor. I wandered over, saw it was a “Jeep”, and that the sticker said it was a shade under 100k.

I think most people saw 100k jeep and pissed themselves laughing. You know kinda like how their vehicles tend to leak, everything.

I get the comments about not wanting to own a car as flashy and classless as this, but I think clearly we’re looking at it the wrong way. Cars are meant to be driven, I get it. Buy a Corolla for 20x less and run it into the ground and it’ll do the exact same job, but the act of designing, creating, flexing that level…

Woa woa wait a second. You mean to tell me Nissan had whatever TF that thing is, tucked away somewhere, and isn’t selling it? Looks a little like a baby NSX, I think I’m catching feelings, Nissan you fools!
