How about the Aerovette? It had 2 separate lives as a concept, one with a 400ci small block V8 and one with a 4-rotor Wankel. It does fail my big ‘successful concept car’ criterium of not making it to production in fairly similar form, but bits and pieces did get there. And it generated nearly 50 years of ‘when are we…

Yup...insane unobtanium on the dias, then production versions fairly faithful to the fantasy became reality. That, to me, is what makes a great concept car.

MAserati Birdcage from 2003. Seriously pretty and cool.

We actually have the largest freight network in the world. If it wasn’t run by shitty people, it would probably be even larger.

The trucking industry, for the most part, broke trucking unions a long time ago.

Boebert and MTG are like something out of Idiocracy - elected officials based on being social media personalities.

“... as a teen or someone in their early 20's...”
Correction: “... as a 36 year old grandmother...”

What makes it even worse is that she thinks she’s hot shit, but as a teen or someone in their early 20's. She doesn’t carry hot shit like an adult, but more so like a tempestuous, spoiled kid of rich, separated parents that didn’t fight for custody of her.

God she thinks she is such. hot. shit. Maddening. 

Sadly, ND. No way Im spending $15k on anything with that reliability reputation.
