it's gonna be hilarious in a decade when all these trucknuts types have to give up their giant jacked up shitmobiles. vroom vroom while you can children.

Not to mention trucks have fewer regulations put in place. Car companies can make higher margins by selling those instead so they are pushing them really hard. What we need is more regulations put on larger vehicles, but you bet they are lobbying hard against that.

What makes you think that would happen? There won't be any laws in the USA to ban gasoline or diesel vehicles in your lifetime.

Bet you a soda you're wrong. Writing's on the wall chudly, your vroom vrooms are gonna go byebye one day. It'll either be through regulation or lack of fuel availability, or the mobs that tear you out of your fucking cavemanmobile and beat you to death for continuing to make the atmosphere unlivable. Take your pick.

What a clown, do you ever talk to people like that in the real world? I'll bet you a soda that you don't.

Your thoughts are a fantasy, deal with it.

Sure thing vroom vroom, whatever you need to tell yourself. It's already obvious you're compensating for something.

That’s funny. Last time I checked Rolling Coal was still a thing.

Guess there still some time left.

compensate while you can. if that's what gives you joy I can see why the world ending for everyone else is an attractive thing.
