Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

I hardly watch TV, mostly Youtube vloggers from agriculture or construction that cut the drama with which Discovery Channel tarts up its real life documentaries. There are plenty of good ones, better than TV

I used to watch a lot of Diesel Creek, but you just reminded me that he fell out of my algorithm. My daughter will take my phone or iPad, and after she's skipped past all my favorites and watched 30 minutes of tween crap, I get all sorts of different suggestions.

Yeah thats a right honest man. And Dirt Perfect.

I just read WD saying the cybertruck video brokr records already. Andrew Camarata reserved to buy one too, we already know hes going to say that "it broke for no reason" because people love that.

I ran across a Tesla Cybertruck today, painted white! First time I've seen one in anything but raw stainless (or clear on stainless?), I hadn't even known they came in colors. Is it custom?

I'm guessing @Too many Kubotas can already guess what I'm driving, from the hood profile.

Musk should scale that thing down by about 1/2 and make a two-seat sports car out of it. Can't figure out why some company that makes electric cars hasn't built a sports car yet (not a hybrid, but actual full electric sports car).

Both Toyota and Audi seem to have several in concept phase, so they're likely going to be the first of the major makers to hit the market with something like that.

My wife's boss bought an i8, when they first hit the market. Definitely a true "sports car" by any measure, but PHEV, not BEV. I will say that the HP and torque numbers of some of the PHEV's are truly impressive, but the cost is just insane when packaging what is basically a full ICE in with a full electric car, on a single chassis.

I thought Tesla had a 2-seater in the early 2000s.

Damn, I know more about EVs than I should or want to.

I saw a brown Tesla truck, it did look more like a wrap than paint.

I saw a brown one too in St. Cloud, MN, over the weekend. Was passing it in the opposite direction so didn't see it close enough to discern paint from wrap. Man those things are ugly.

Well, they had the roadster but Musk launched it into space. Don't think they ever built any production cars though.

Well, they have the Model S Plaid, which is a 'sportscar' but not a 2-seater. It's a rocket though, apparently.

I keep my history turned off on YouTube so I get no suggestions which is what I like

<nomex>These days just about anything is called a 'sportscar'; I think on performance bases the Model S (plaid or otherwise) can be considered a "Grand Touring" (fast, and presumably comfortable though I haven't been in one to know personally), but I doubt that anything that weighs over two tons is really a "sports car", which typically is more about handling than speed & acceleration.</nomex>
