What is that thing? Why is that thing? It looks like the vehicles from Aliens. On the windshield, there's a decal that reads "Apocalypse 6x6."

The first thing to be abandoned as soon as the highways fill up with stalled/crashed/flooded cars.

That's the 2022 Copewagon Deluxe XL.

So how much petrol/uranium this things consumes per 100km

[–] Superspacemunky@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Holy crap, I saw that thing at the airport. Pavement princesses are not really my thing.

[–] BranBucket@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

What an utterly useless thing. You add axles to bear more weight. Unless you're hauling a big tungsten cube, the truck isn't big enough to carry a load that would need three axles.

It's even dumber than those Jeep Gladiators, the #1 pavement princess in my area, which sacrifice departure angle for a ridiculously small amount of cargo space and less load capacity than an entry level pickup truck.

Just stupid.

Maybe it's for ~~when the liberal woke mob antifa cannibals hurl a spear through one of the back tires so you still have backup tires~~ . . .er. . . "Towing"

Lmao.

Well, at least it's not a cybertruck

[–] Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 46 minutes ago

It's worse. At least the cyber truck is electric so they're not belching out gas.

It has a built in magnifier to see the driver's penis/ clitoris.

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Man. I know it's a terrible waste of space, energy consumption and all around douchey vehicle... But 6 year old me thinks it looks pretty cool

I'm also curious about WTF is going on on his lawn.

WTF is that wedding arch doing there?

WTF are those giant balls?

WTF is a fake lion doing there?

WTF are the metal looking pipes sticking out of the lawn?

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 6 hours ago

The balls appear to be crimmus ornaments, the pipes look like utility meters.

As for the lion? He doesn't concern himself with the rest of the setup.

[–] drath@lemmy.world 18 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Just... drive a train at this point. There's nothing more badass than a train.

NGL that pic you shared looks bad ass!

[–] drath@lemmy.world 9 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Funny thing is, it's definitely real as it's on a public display, but nobody knows who built it and, most importantly, why they built it. There are numerous equally plausible yet contradicting legends, some people tried to investigate but results were inconclusive, possibly because there were multiple built completely independently, or because it was a top secret project and intelligence planted red herrings. Maybe some vodka drinking took place. But, one thing that is common amongst most legends is that it couldn't steer for shit, hence why it was scrapped.

[–] dreadbeef@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Tap for spoilerthat's a bus

Made from an actual train by the looks of it

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 8 points 9 hours ago

Local Walmarts must be wild if they need this.

[–] Bosht@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, that thing is pretty badass but obviously doesn't need to be anywhere near city roads. Some dude out on a 100 acre ranch? Sure, probably. Still an abomination but at least it would have some utility. But in a city? Nah.

Not even a dude on a ranch, they can also just use some small Japanese truck. Or if you really need the terrain capabilities, then use a digger!

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 9 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

That kinda looks sick. I love cars that aren't just stock standard stuff.

[–] Typotyper@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 hours ago

How dare you have an opinion different from mine.

Down vote!!

Why do the doors have vaginas

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 hours ago

I mean look at the thing, how could they not? ;)

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 6 points 11 hours ago

I mean okay if it was built properly(these usually arent, just for road and not offroad) and the ownerr actually used it offroad, and the car would be banned on the road, it would be pretty cool. But all this is doing is having horrible fuel economy while being a pedestrian murdering machine.

[–] biotin7@sopuli.xyz 7 points 12 hours ago

Cool truck, but why ??? It doesn't even have the utility that Trucks are usually famous for

Middle age crisis and tiny penises can be seen from a long distance.
