Almost certainly the case. The Beast was engineered from the ground up, and this is a heavily modified Caddy. I can’t imagine that any of the protective systems are still the same after 30 years.

Imagine the stains in that thing.
Are we no longer doing links back to the original reporting with posts like this?
There’s definitely something about that guy that makes me hesitant here. At the very least, he has the feel of an enthusiast who may decide you’re the “wrong buyer” for this “gem” and refuse your money.
Toyota did it first, sorta. That’s a Sienna on a Taco frame.
Working class voters when they realize the billionaires they voted for are pursuing policies that benefit billionaires over the working class.
It’s amazing how the bright orange turns what could be a fairly classy car (say, with dark brown leather and no colored trim) into something that screams “I won the lottery.”
-I understand that someone has forced your Waymo vehicle to stop and is trying to assault you. Let me get you some help for this issue.
This is the problem. This stuff isn’t rocket science, and the tech behind protecting yourself after a nuclear blast has been well understood for decades. But unless you are a hard-core prepper who has put in the effort to learn how it all works and how to maintain it and survive on your own over a long period of time,…
What Musk doesn’t appear to realize is that Trump hates sharing the spotlight, especially with things like this.
A car like this needs to be seen to be worthwhile, which means it needs to be in pristine condition, which this appears to be. You’re not dailying this, you’re driving it to C&C and the local meetups where you can talk about your grandfather’s Cadillac.
It really is glutted right now because all the big names tried to jump in at once without considering that a lot of people would be reluctant to drop that kind of money on an EV.
I don’t think Shaq’s in any real hurry to get anywhere nowadays.
And there are so many of them, for an organization that I doubt more than 2% of the country even knows exists.
So I took a look through AAMVA’s financials (since they’re a non-profit, it’s all public), and it appears to get most of its money from dues. Membership has two tiers, Jurisdiction (restricted to government entities) and Associate (everyone else). The first is members-only, but the Associate list is right on their web…
Ah, yes, of course this is in Southern California. The whole area is full of rides like this, cars that were once owned by the moneyed class but are now driven by poseurs who want people who don’t know any better to think they’re billionaires.
I’ve seen exactly one on the road, and I live in San Diego.
It looks quite resilient to blunt force, but I would bet a hit by a Molotov cocktail would fuck it pretty quickly.
It will actually take disapproval through the Congressional Review Act, not an executive order, but with the GOP in control of the whole government, that won’t be a challenge.
One more: The DOE Loan Program Office is the rare example of a government program that has actually turned a profit. Over its lifetime, it’s had less than a 2% failure rate (better than most banks) and a net return of more than $3B.
