Looks like a get-stuck-on-a-curbmobile

It probably flexes so much that it won't be a problem.

Raised railroad crossing? Forget about it

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Maybe it has hydraulics for going over a speed bump, too

What’s a raised RR crossing?

Aren’t RR crossing standard ?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Means the railroad is on a slight hill, the middle of the vehicle will bottom out on a raised crossing.

Well, whatever it is, the guy parked like an asshole.

It's an almost empty lot, no harm no foul

It says right on the side, that's the Cosmic Cruiser

The original version may be the coolest a Chevy van has ever been:

I felt like a real Detective Sherlock Holmes for a second, when I saw the version 1 picture of the Cosmic Cruiser in the comments and noticed the Renaissance Center in the background, which is the GM headquarters. But wait! It's from the opposite side of the Detroit river, meaning this picture was taken from Windsor, Canada... "Of course a Canadian would build this, it's just like that guy in his bear proof suit."

Go to the comments to kick in my 2 cents and see that OP's picture has a car with Ontario plates fully in view and closer than the Cruiser itself...

"ELEmEnTary!"

Looks kinda like the front section of a high speed rail train

[–] shasta@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I was thinking a small plane

Fuck-o-drome

If it runs and drives that thing is far from shitty car mods.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sure, I love not being able to turn corners and bottoming out on raised railroad tracks...

Yeah if I was going to trick out my car I wouldn't put hydraulics on it either.

You can sell me on it being a dumb mod, but not a shitty mod, hehe.
