    Status symbol, looks different, poggers 80s sci fi, decapitates any poors that get in front of you (makes sure they're dead and can't sure for medical expenses)

    :so-true:

      So I read the website and the "decapitates any poors that get in front of you" seems scarily true. They advertise that the car is stainless steel and super durable - but fucking crumple zones were invented for a really good reason. If this thing gets into a crash with another car the other car will be fucking toast, and if it hits a wall the driver is gonna get their neck snapped before the airbag deploys.

        Crumple zones are mandatory and cars have to pass safety checks. But I don't know more than that.

          I certainly hope so, I was just reacting to the marketing material.

          If, in the interest of safety, they have to make the truck similarly flimsy to any other vehicle, then they have nothing except the bad aesthetic.
