Or a glorious Geo revival no one saw coming.

My crazy-rich dream car would be a 1965 Buick Riviera Gran Sport Coupe in a Tesla Model S P100d Ludicrous skateboard. It would totally fit, the wheelbase and track are nearly identical. Of course it would have a full hidden safety cage and jillions of airbags.

Tesla should sell this platform with the ability to change the wheelbase etc to fit classic car bodies. Fuck crate engines, give us EV ccrate chassis.

It isn’t just “aren’t allowed” but you get to the point where an engineering office can breed a level of lack of caring about serviceability.

Fifth wheel:

A gooseneck hitch is a hitching system when the ball is in the center of the bed right above the axle and is attached directly to the frame. A 5th wheel hitch is removable and connects a little higher in the bed. Gooseneck hitch > 5th Wheel hitch > tag or “Bumper or reciever” hitch.
