    My engineer portion of brain: super cool

    The rest of my brain: dammit, they’re going to sell these to any ninny who can afford one, and I’ll have to survive on/near roads with them

        Anecdotal evidence, but people I know that buy these kinds of monstrosities only look at/care about the monthly lease payments

          I’ve seen a lot of trailer homes (stationary ones that can’t be towed) with vehicles that cost several times what the house likely cost.

        0% no cash down loans will help those who want this car. Oh wait you have bad credit. 39% and the traid in of your current car. We can roll the negative equity into the loan. Spread this out of 150 months and the repayment should be manageable if you take up a second job.

      Do you have any days that shows these sport trucks actually cause more damage than some dude in a beater? Enthusiasts tend to like their shit.
