It’s genuinely insane that anyone is allowed to put that on a road

To be fair, it does look totally badass at first glance.
Reminds of those pictures I used to draw of future vehicles with more huge wheels and tracks and sections than necessary. And there were usually laser cannons and grappling hooks on them.
This specimen appears to have neither a laser turret nor giant robot crane claw or saws mounted on it, thus, unacceptable.
Take it away, it offends me.
I think it is time to roll out the ICE Annihilator 9000 to defend all children everywhere in the name of Liam Conojo.
Woah I’ve never seen a fully rendered cyber truck, I always just see the ps2 model.
wake up babe, a new threshold for overcompensating just dropped
Needs some of those triple-wheels from the Damnation Alley RVs.
I personally know a guy who owns one of these things. He’s a mid-70s white guy who manages money. He lives in Washington DC. It’s the ugliest fucking car I’ve ever seen.
people entrust their money to somebody who makes decisions like this?
that’s… interesting
I didn’t think you could find an uglier car than the cybertruck, but you’ve done it! Jesus fucking Christ.
That’s a normal beer bottle on the back fender, by the way. This thing is fucking gigantic. It shouldn’t be road legal at all.
I put aside my dislike for trucks that are used for commutes or even less than that but bpy, is that an ugly disfigured design, lacking any kind of proper proportions.
Luckily that Compensator 9000 is certainly not street legal in the EU.
Not legal in DC, either, but unfortunately that doesnt stop people
The difference is the these laws are enforced here
Must be nice, lol. Unfortunately, in the US, most rules around the road legality of a vehicle are enforced during inspections, which not every state has. Even the states that have them have a really low cost on the inspection, so mechanics who do them are incentivized to just rubber stamp them.
Other than that, lots of problems are considered a “secondary offense”, which means you won’t be pulled over for it, but you can be ticketed for it if you are pulled over for another reason. Broadly, I dont think that’s necessarily a bad policy, but it does have the effect where they end up being effectively unenforced unless the cop has a reason to want to hit you with the book.
In the EU enforcement of traffic rules is a matter of member states, but many rules are codified on EU level, at least for what is street legal. That abomination above violates the common rules already quite clearly. It is thinkable that one can grey import individual cars and get a custom license for that but even than some modifications will be required, but that depends on the local authorities. In any case it must be hard or expensive as you basically don’t see that kind of nonsense on the streets.
If you are seen driving an obviously non-street legal car and can’t come up with papers to the contrary your vehicle gets immediately grounded, towed and you can call a taxi. If you are a repeat offender chances are you could lose your drivers license and when you are driving without one consequences can get much worse.
But hey, you can still get an Aixam for your mobility needs without a drivers license: https://www.aixam.com/en/ They even sell “Crossovers” for those with increased compensation needs.
In the early 80s I would have thought this was the coolest thing and would have looked around, certain KITT must be nearby. I guess some people never grow out of the toddler fascination for BIG TRUCK.

Bit of a personal bone to pick, people like this make me feel cringe whenever I say I’m a pepper or have a firearm. Movies don’t reflect reality, the world doesn’t stop in a day, and if a single car collides with that behemoth, he’ll probably wind up in deep debt.
I have learned and will bring books on survival techniques and skills for others to read so that a community collective can survive until crops become viable food sources. You won’t find most preppers doing that shit.
Is the exterior 3d printed? This has such a powder printed look to it. Maybe it is just looking like that but in any case the interior appears to be comically small relative to the monstrous dimensions of that vehicle.
I stopped identifying as a prepper in 2020. When it actually happened, my family locked down and did exactly what we had planned for. We had masks in the emergency kit, food and water for weeks, books for the kids, you name it. I felt smart.
Until the other preppers exposed my naivete by just waltzing outside. Whatever, fuck them, I’m stocking up for the next pandemic. Next time, toilet paper.
Brought to you by the people who wanted to ban games like Carmaggedon.
It looks kinda cool though.
A toy version of this at the age of 6 would be awesome.
A real version would be a nightmare.
I’d like to drive it on a muddy closed course once, it’d be fun!
The wheelbase looks too big to be fun. I’d prefer to go the opposite direction.
The Compensator.
“The Over Compensator”
Do you lack a soul and meaningful character? We have just the vehicle to transport your insecurities away.
In fairness I would have thought this looked cool… When I was 12.
However, it’s almost a certainty that a “regular” truck could out perform this thing in every metric.
Its notoriously difficult to get the dual rear axles to provide a meaningful benefit to traction and even load capacity.
However, there will be a huge hit to economy, weight, acceleration, and handling.
In summary it would be an absolute pig to own.
It’s because when you are 12, you still have a baby penis and no testicles, which is exactly the requirement for owning this truck.
12
This is the key point. Most behaviour like this pretty much identical to twelve years kids wanting attention. I am going to guess anyone who wants to buy this has not receibed any real affection and attention from their parents.
These guys are narcissists and don’t age past 12 emotionally.
I drive an old ass S10 and it gets better gas mileage and has a bigger bed than most of the newer bigger trucks coming out these days.
The Canyonero was ruled unsafe for highway or city driving by the Federal Highway Commission.
Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts.
More like the penis pump 9000
Such a wanton disregard for others is a clear manifestation of a DSM condition that should be treated.
