I've said it before and I'll say it again but these are the drivers that are calling you a tankie online. The people driving literal fucking tanks

[-] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 49 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Actually, I think the people that drive these tend to be too-far right to even know what a tankie is. The people calling you tankie probably drive, like, Priuses.

[-] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 21 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

The people driving these cars are more likely to call you an f-slur.

Work as a mechanic and these guys are always the type to have right-wing bumper stickers and make their politics known to everyone.

[-] eldoom@lemm.ee 22 points 10 months ago

The one thing that I learned as a meth addict several years ago was that the likelihood of there being a gun in the vehicle and the vehicle being unlocked goes up rapidly and exponentially with every right wing sticker.

Those stickers literally make them targets for car prowlers.

On the other hand, it's good to know where to get what we in the business call "an offensive handgun" if you need one in a hurry.

There's one of these in my neighborhood and it deserves 🔻

[-] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 47 points 10 months ago

Soon the smallest car you'll be able to get will be a whole full size RV

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago

It's worse because I doubt you would be able to live somewhat comfortably in one of these, while taking up the space of an actual RV. I just can't wrap my head around this type of car.

[-] tripartitegraph@hexbear.net 39 points 10 months ago

I'm almost impressed with how absurd and ugly this is

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 29 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

They took the worst aspects of an 18 wheeler and a pickup truck and combined them at the expense of literally every single benefit.

I mean fuck you could have a basically pre built truck camper on that platform that would somehow look better and have better aerodynamics.

[-] Cummunism@hexbear.net 38 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

truck dudes are like "im a badass but also I need room for my 3 kids but god forbid i drive something that doesnt have a truckbed so i can larp as someone who uses a truckbed."

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 37 points 10 months ago

Reminds me of some old robot chicken sketch where some stupidly rich kid is showing off his stuff. He gets to his solid gold truck and says it gets "13 feet per tank of gas".

[-] WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net 33 points 10 months ago

Legalize pedestrian use of antitank rifles

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 20 points 10 months ago

Concealed carry self defense anti-tank mines.

[-] anonochronomus@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago

I'm grinning ear to ear thinking what a round of armor piercing incendiary 20mm would do to those exposed gas tanks.

[-] Spongebobsquarejuche@hexbear.net 24 points 10 months ago

...Park that BIG MAC TRUCK. Right in this little garage...

Using a stepstool to enter my School Bus Crushing Machine

[-] TheCaconym@hexbear.net 22 points 10 months ago

Remember folks, always pack some dry lentils for when you randomly encounter a SUV. Or, you know, whatever that monstrosity is.

[-] sisatici@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago

We should stop giving a shit about it and just say their models are "compensator"

[-] Dingus_Khan@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago
[-] wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

Unironically that's exactly what these big trucks are for in many cases

[-] heartheartbreak@hexbear.net 22 points 10 months ago

Is the market made of children?

[-] xi_simping@hexbear.net 20 points 10 months ago

what the fuck

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 19 points 10 months ago

There is a semi truck manufacturer called MAN so clearly this will be the real choice of alpha males

[-] CrushKillDestroySwag@hexbear.net 16 points 10 months ago

god what an awful truck.

I remember many years ago my mom had a black Toyota, it was half as tall as this thing and had more usable bed space.

[-] ComradeChairmanKGB@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 10 months ago

The wheels in those wheelwells are like Charlie Kirk's facial features on his face.

People really love to accelerate climate change and then complain about it when it comes back to bite them.

[-] Catradora_Stalinism@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

What the actual fuck is that

[-] lntl@lemmy.ml 14 points 10 months ago

Let's tax some chickens and stop this madness

[-] CTHlurker@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

Does anyone know the model of this truck? I want to bully a swedish coworker if it is indeed a Scania (guy is pretty outspoken about american cars being "stupid and for stupid people")

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago
[-] TheCaconym@hexbear.net 9 points 10 months ago

He is, but the point is that Scania is a Swedish auto manufacturer

It isn't a Scania at least.

[-] Confound4082@lemmy.ml 5 points 10 months ago

About 90% certain it's a freightliner M2 106

[-] milistanaccount09@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago
[-] Spongebobsquarejuche@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago

lol Clearly a delivery truck with a stupid truck bed.

the mcmainsion of trucks

[-] NotErisma@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago

That's an International MXT truck.

I can't believe I know what that truck is.

[-] Confound4082@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago

It looks similar, but the mxt has a more squared off cab.

I think this is a freightliner M2 106
