It barely fits in the bloody car park. So bad for pedestrians and the environment.
Though I would like to see the Lightning. That seems like a pretty excellent electric work vehicle.

I don't hate the electric ones as much, but they're still excessive imo.

Barely fits in the car park… ever seen one parked in a garage?
I've been referring to these as babykillers. Good luck seeing a kid crossing the road if you're in one of these.
I call them 3 and a half tonne child killers. These and Range Rover, Q7s X5s etc.
What I find totally ironic is the arseholes who drive these things park at the shops then bring out their hemp shopping bags. ‘Yeah let’s protect our environment’ fucking hypocrites.
It’s never been about protecting anything. It’s just wealth projection.
Handmade organic hemp bags project wealth far more than generic 15c plastic ones.
Honestly. Starting to see these in the UK too, and all I can think is who the hell needs one of these things??
I can't imagine they're easy to drive around or park given their size, and they must guzzle through petrol. Even if you had a big family, surely you'd just get an SUV with not totally exposed to the elements boot space.

These things are so incredibly ugly on top of everything else that's wrong with them. Thanks for all the brilliant names in this thread though, wankerado is my favourite so far.
