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.
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.
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 🔻
Soon the smallest car you'll be able to get will be a whole full size RV
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.
I'm almost impressed with how absurd and ugly this is
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.
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."
Fucking tax these things like the heavy vehicles they are already
1 mpg highway
0 mpg city
5 gallons per mile
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".
Legalize pedestrian use of antitank rifles
Concealed carry self defense anti-tank mines.
I'm grinning ear to ear thinking what a round of armor piercing incendiary 20mm would do to those exposed gas tanks.
...Park that BIG MAC TRUCK. Right in this little garage...
Using a stepstool to enter my School Bus Crushing Machine
Remember folks, always pack some dry lentils for when you randomly encounter a SUV. Or, you know, whatever that monstrosity is.
We should stop giving a shit about it and just say their models are "compensator"
Gender affirming truck
Unironically that's exactly what these big trucks are for in many cases
Is the market made of children?
There is a semi truck manufacturer called MAN so clearly this will be the real choice of alpha males
what the fuck
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.
What the actual fuck is that
People really love to accelerate climate change and then complain about it when it comes back to bite them.
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")
It isn't a Scania at least.
But he's right tho
He is, but the point is that Scania is a Swedish auto manufacturer
Yeah I know
I legitmately thought your title was implying that the "truck" in this picture was a Scania, hence my comment. Thats why I wanted to know the model of it. I just reread your post and realized that you meant these trucks in general look like Euro-trucks like Scania. Anyway thats what I get for posting while working.
I just thought "to make the joke work insert brand of trucks (the big transporting ones) that only makes trucks" -> Scania
About 90% certain it's a freightliner M2 106
Let's tax some chickens and stop this madness
lol Clearly a delivery truck with a stupid truck bed.
How soon before chuds just start attaching engines to their houses?
I wouldn't mind if they converted to "german retiree touring southamerica in one of those massive Unimog/Mercedez Benz 4x4 camper trucks" those things have great visibility
the mcmainsion of trucks
That's an International MXT truck.
I can't believe I know what that truck is.
It looks similar, but the mxt has a more squared off cab.
I think this is a freightliner M2 106
