Name a car

BMW
Big Trucks

BMW drivers are something else. It’s seems like the people who drive them have to be douchebags according to the warranty
 
“Isn’t a real truck”

Classical haterade

classical envy <NewGina>
I hate on them, but, if you aren't worried about towing anything of substance and aren't worried about going too deep into the mountains - if you slap chains on them in any snow (the vids I've seen of them in even a few inches of snow going uphill offroad hasn't been good) they are actually pretty impressive high clearance vehicles. Although I mentioned some negatives, please don't take it as a diss. I just think the cybertruck as released should have been a beta tester. Call it Electric offroad vehicle 0.21. I'm hopeful the engineering and battery capacity improves over the next 10 years and there's an actual cybertruck 1.0 that kicks all the ass.

If i were to tow, i would get a diesel, my mom would give me her truck, she’s been trying to give it away to me or my brother but not takers.

As for cybertruck, reasons i like (not necessarily reason i bought)

Passenger seating is amazing and roomy. This is compared to other passenger trucks.

The tonneau cover is outstanding, always wanted one for my other trucks, but they all kind of suck and limit the truck use.

Acceleration, yeah it’s stupidly fast, don’t really care for it but nice passing up vehicles as needed.

The exterior, i was a former contractor, hated that my trucks would get so beat up, CT no paint, ultra tough

And for the main reasons aside from tax advantages

Electric….. i have an excess of solar energies going to waste. I pay zero fuel costs, charge at home is free for up to a tank a week, i don’t drive that much.

Full self driving…. Absolutely amazing technology, it’sa truck, i often have to make multiple location deliveries, i can send location from phone to truck and have a map of points to hit up, and let the truck do the driving.

Unlike cars, trucks are big, difficult to maneuver, so a self driving system is kind of amazing, takes care of all the stress.

As for snow traction, have no snow around here, and it should work as well as other awd vehicles, definitely better than rwd.

As for range, it goes close to rivian with a smaller battery pack, and extended packs are optional.

The truck is well engineered, however it’s unconventional
 
That's the mid range model... what are the numbers for the Turbo/turbo S and the GT2/GT2 RS going to look like? :eek:

Oh yeah, we have heaps of tracks dotted around the place. I want to try it out on the twisty, winding roads on the way down to the coast and back... going to be badass.
You're well positioned to go for a fang down there now anyway :)

True, not like my current car isn't a heap of fun on twisty roads already... it's been nearly 4.5 years though, so approaching being ready to drive something new.

Shiny toys for the win :cool:

Btw how’s the shoulder? You mentioned possible surgery?
 
I just hate everyone who doesn't signal, it's disrespectful.

I know 10 years ago we were all going "why don't people signal anymore!?!?"

and 10 years before that the same..and so on

BUT WHY DOESN'T PEOPLE SIGNAL ANYMORE
 
I agree with bmw and ram. But not Prius and Tesla.

I think bmw and ram makes sense too, because it shows that the person values appearances and isn't the type to research things like reliability or bang for your buck.

And yes, I know not every bmw and ram owner is an asshole, but I have noticed a lot are.

Thanks for asking, MRI shows three things are fucked with it, a tear in the infraspinatus tendon(only partial), bursitis and something else... which I forget.

Doctor said he could forward me straight to the surgeon or we could do a cortisone shot and physio and hope it comes good. I'm doing the latter. Surgery sucks so I'll try to avoid a fourth if at all possible... just hoping I'm not wasting my time and will have to get surgery later anyway.

Oh well, shit happens.

Fuck, sounds painful. I would have made the same choice, worth a shot. Would suck to recover from surgery over Xmas anyhow.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend it personally, was like someone sticking a knife in and twisting it.

Oh well, shit happens... the price of a lifetime of doing stupid(although fun) stuff.
