What a ridiculous gender affirming vehicle.
Very clean for an off road vehicle.
dual axles to haul the heaviest of insecurities and crushing debt
Along with hauling around an inverted weenie and underdeveloped cranium.
I'm sure this is someone who has all their shit toghether. No issues whatsoever.
Camo pyjamas.
Yeah but you see that's smart.
Boogeymonster already knows aboit the blanket trick. So then when it does pull away the blanky:
yoink
"Huh? Where'd he go?"
To be fair, it does look totally badass at first glance.
Reminds of those pictures I used to draw of future vehicles with more huge wheels and tracks and sections than necessary. And there were usually laser cannons and grappling hooks on them.
This specimen appears to have neither a laser turret nor giant robot crane claw or saws mounted on it, thus, unacceptable.
Take it away, it offends me.
The huge radiator grill is all fine and dandy until you accidentally ingested an entire cow into the air intake.
True (and funny), which is why any proper doom mech should have a cow catcher on it. Or a giant spike ram. At least according to my 12 years old imagination.
I personally know a guy who owns one of these things. He's a mid-70s white guy who manages money. He lives in Washington DC. It's the ugliest fucking car I've ever seen.
Fits the general tastelessness I observed around the Beltway.
I put aside my dislike for trucks that are used for commutes or even less than that but bpy, is that an ugly disfigured design, lacking any kind of proper proportions.
Luckily that Compensator 9000 is certainly not street legal in the EU.
Not legal in DC, either, but unfortunately that doesnt stop people
The difference is the these laws are enforced here
Must be nice, lol. Unfortunately, in the US, most rules around the road legality of a vehicle are enforced during inspections, which not every state has. Even the states that have them have a really low cost on the inspection, so mechanics who do them are incentivized to just rubber stamp them.
Other than that, lots of problems are considered a "secondary offense", which means you won't be pulled over for it, but you can be ticketed for it if you are pulled over for another reason. Broadly, I dont think that's necessarily a bad policy, but it does have the effect where they end up being effectively unenforced unless the cop has a reason to want to hit you with the book.
In the EU enforcement of traffic rules is a matter of member states, but many rules are codified on EU level, at least for what is street legal. That abomination above violates the common rules already quite clearly. It is thinkable that one can grey import individual cars and get a custom license for that but even than some modifications will be required, but that depends on the local authorities. In any case it must be hard or expensive as you basically don't see that kind of nonsense on the streets.
If you are seen driving an obviously non-street legal car and can't come up with papers to the contrary your vehicle gets immediately grounded, towed and you can call a taxi. If you are a repeat offender chances are you could lose your drivers license and when you are driving without one consequences can get much worse.
But hey, you can still get an Aixam for your mobility needs without a drivers license: https://www.aixam.com/en/ They even sell "Crossovers" for those with increased compensation needs.
Are RVs illegal in the EU? This doesn't look bigger than those, just dumber.
There are likely numerous things that make this hard to get street legal. The one I am pretty certain are the tires extending beyond the anyway entirely dysfunctional (non street legal) fenders. This is horrendously dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists.
The main differences that in the EU, if something is not legal, companies are not allowed to sell it.
Then how do people do things like auto racing on tracks if they can't buy non-street-legal cars? Or off roading? You can definitely buy plenty of Unimogs that look effectively the same as this.
They can't. This class of vehicle isn't legal in the European Union it's why the cybertruck isn't legal (there's a whole bunch of other problems with it as well but the weight limit is a major problem). If you wanted anyway just to have it on private property you're out to luck. Someone did train import to cybertruck into the UK and had it confiscated.
I think there is a classification for vehicle that you can get if it's something like a race car or rally car but it can't be driven on the road and has to be driven around on a truck to move it.

Looks like there are plenty of places selling similar vehicles in the UK and EU.
Look closer. They are not like the vehicle above. None of them has tires that are extending beyond the fenders. None of them has dysfunctional fenders like that abomination above. Guess why.
Amazing. You can fit soooo many groceries in that after yoga class.
Looks like both yours and OP's image are from here: apocalypse6x6.com
The absolutely irony of these chud tanks is that theybwpuld be the FIRST vehicles to break down in the apocalypse.
Will presumably it does about quarter mile to the gallon so it'll be out of fuel and abandoned at the side of the road within the first week.
Oh I love this. So many parts so exposed, if someone carried a grudge they'd just take a cordless angle grinder to it and it'd be disabled without you even noticing until you try to drive it away. Shit, you could just cut into the engine block sooo easily.
What the fuck are those actually supposed to be good for?
compensating
people entrust their money to somebody who makes decisions like this?
that's.. interesting
His taste in vehicles aside, he is apparently quite savvy with money management.
He also owns a Ukranian jet. Refurbished, of course.
I didn't think you could find an uglier car than the cybertruck, but you've done it! Jesus fucking Christ.
That's a normal beer bottle on the back fender, by the way. This thing is fucking gigantic. It shouldn't be road legal at all.
Why though. What's even the utility of something like this?
Surely, surely... the inconvenience and cost of having something like this in your life must outweigh that of renting a trailer for those off times when you need to haul something.
That thing just looks so stupid and huge and bad.
Car guy here, let me explain!
Nah I'm just fucking with you, I don't have an explanation. This doesn't look fun to drive on roads and despite having more ground clearance than something like a Toyota RAV4 and 6 wheel drive and everything, I wouldn't take it off road either. So much distance between the first and second axle. Damn thing looks like it could bend pretty easily if you drive it the way one ought to drive an off-road vehicle with a Hellcat engine: Like a trophy truck. Because trophy trucks are built to take that beating and this is almost certainly not. So you can crawl slowly with your 900 horsepower tuned Hellcat and watch some dude in a Wrangler pass you at a fifth of the price and a third of the engine size because smaller and lighter is an advantage when going off road over heavy and clumsy usually.
😆
Yeah dude, it just makes no sense whatsoever except as a dick extender. Such nonsense.
Also you could actually buy a dick extender that's actually amazing to drive on road for that money AND have enough money left over to buy something that's better than this off road
And probably a literal dick extender, too! 🥒
I've never seen anything this ridiculous in person, but I've seen plenty of dumb trucks. Things like maybe lift kits and low profile tires, wheels kicked out to the side...so setup for off-road but with zero grip, shit turning radius, wobbles on the highway, and also shit for towing.
The one that kills me is $80k trucks in the trailer park. Spend your money how you want, but it seems crazy to have a rapidly depreciating vehicle that's worth more than your home.
There must me an easier way to prove how big your dick is.
Trailers aren't cheap either. The park here has unremarkable units, not even new, in the 60-80k range. Almost a decade ago the lot rent fees were already over 500 a month, and they don't even do any lawn care or snow removal.
they are probably taking huge loans, thats why they are living in trailer parks.
Otherwise known as the way of the influencer.
Debt and pretend coolness
In fairness I would have thought this looked cool... When I was 12.
However, it's almost a certainty that a "regular" truck could out perform this thing in every metric.
Its notoriously difficult to get the dual rear axles to provide a meaningful benefit to traction and even load capacity.
However, there will be a huge hit to economy, weight, acceleration, and handling.
In summary it would be an absolute pig to own.
I drive an old ass S10 and it gets better gas mileage and has a bigger bed than most of the newer bigger trucks coming out these days.
This is the key point. Most behaviour like this is pretty much identical to twelve year old kids wanting attention. I am going to guess anyone who wants to buy this has not received any real affection and attention from their parents.
It's because when you are 12, you still have a baby penis and no testicles, which is exactly the requirement for owning this truck.
These guys are narcissists and don't age past 12 emotionally.
Cyberpunk 2077 cosplay
A very scared man drives this.
I see dicks are getting smaller these days
Republicans must have the smallest dicks known to man.
I think there was an episode of South Park where they told all the angry men that the average penis size was much smaller than it actually was and then they weren't assholes anymore
I remember that episode, it was called "T.M.I."
As far as the idea goes... it's worth a shot. :D
The Canyonero was ruled unsafe for highway or city driving by the Federal Highway Commission.
Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts.
Guy probably has an arsenal at home, has a bunch of guns in the truck and at least one or two on him at all times.
Pro Life!!!
And he will be taken out with 1 drone strike if it ever came to actual conflict. I wonder how much that monstrosity cost.
It was only $10k, actually. Just put something down, drive it for a few months and let the repo guy come get it. Cheaper than renting.
Nah you just roll the negative equity into the next one and then the one after that and
At the end of the spiral you'll have a base model F-150 with 200k principal owed on it at only 17,9% APR for 10 years
It's the exact same with preppers. Oh I see you've got stockpiles of food in this basement so you could last about 6 months, I'm sure the ash clouds will have dispersed by then. Presumably they are on some special alert list so that they'll be told in the event of nuclear strike so they can get to their nice bunker in time.
More than the drone
HELL YEAH BROTHER
Where are the confederate, trump and "don't tread on me" flags?? Though this might be the first thing I've see that screams that enough to where they aren't needed, but it's very surprising that a person like that would have enough working brain cells to understand that.
Woah I've never seen a fully rendered cyber truck, I always just see the ps2 model.
Mad MadMad Max was written at its time about the pronounced obsession with cars in the mid 20th century. Kinda like American Graffiti.Later one of the writers (George Miller, maybe) recognized crude doesn't refine itself.
"Mad Mad"
The troubles with commenting by phone keyboard while walking the dog.
The Compensator.
"The Over Compensator"
Do you lack a soul and meaningful character? We have just the vehicle to transport your insecurities away.
wake up babe, a new threshold for overcompensating just dropped
Someone made Bane their personality.
Dafuq is that?!
A gender affirming truck for an emasculated insecure manlet.
I was talking with a colleague once and he told me to type soemthig (can't remember the name) into google, and that thing came up.
Apparently there is a company, american of course that takes already big toy trucks and turns them into... that.
Their website is full of like post apocalyptic talk. Cuz you know, a giant trucking guzzling gallons of a ressource that will be hard to come by, full of electronics that will stop working after even a tiny EMP hits, will be very useful.
Fascists are all about surface aesthetics. That's why everything's about "optics" and "narrative" these days. They don't have a sense of solid reality to any of it. So they see a film like Fury Road and think, 'yes, cool. I must be like Joe'.
They have no sense that Immortan Joe is a desperate fool who has squandered the humanity of everyone in his orbit. If you try to talk about themes and interpretations, you will be met with scorn. That's my experience.
They don't even realize fight club was making fun of them
But Immortan Joe’s got the peeps (he’s popular)! He must be fetching Valhalla (he must be doing something right)!
The fact that Joe has peeps and you don’t makes him a better warrior than you! /s
...Why did I have to be just smart enough to suffer?
There is a use for dual tires for towing large trailers but not really like that and the extended cab makes it worse for doing any actual work.
Rezvani Motors?
Just checked them out, those are ridiculous as well. Apparently I was talking about sigh "Apocalypse Manufacturing"
Oh my God! I don't know which ones are worst.
A Bad Mobile, for the Bad Driver
The Wallet Annihilator, guaranteed to not pass a gas station on any commute.
That thing from Deadpool 2.
A castrated, cucked man drives this.
That's something I would have used for my game idea called "Evil Car", a car racing game, where you fuel cars with the blood of orphans, and tune them by sacrificing cute puppies and virgins to it.
Never played Carmagheddon?
I played it, but I want to make it even more evil.
Lots or rubber to replace. Could bankrupt a fella
Hey, if you don’t have a military-sized budget for badass accoutrements, can you even call yourself an alpha-male?
That thing doesn’t even run on jet fuel. Like, it’s just pleb gas you can buy on the side of the road. If your vehicle isn’t powered by something that needs extra regulations and significantly more insurance, you’re just driving a hybrid.

Bit of a personal bone to pick, people like this make me feel cringe whenever I say I'm a pepper or have a firearm. Movies don't reflect reality, the world doesn't stop in a day, and if a single car collides with that behemoth, he'll probably wind up in deep debt.
I stopped identifying as a prepper in 2020. When it actually happened, my family locked down and did exactly what we had planned for. We had masks in the emergency kit, food and water for weeks, books for the kids, you name it. I felt smart.
Until the other preppers exposed my naivete by just waltzing outside. Whatever, fuck them, I'm stocking up for the next pandemic. Next time, toilet paper.
I have learned and will bring books on survival techniques and skills for others to read so that a community collective can survive until crops become viable food sources. You won't find most preppers doing that shit.
Is the exterior 3d printed? This has such a powder printed look to it. Maybe it is just looking like that but in any case the interior appears to be comically small relative to the monstrous dimensions of that vehicle.
Looks almost like bed liner?
Ironically a better view over the hood than a new truck. lol
Perhaps the lights aren't quite as retina searing also. Yay?
I mean, they don't let me make these types of jokes no more. Fucking Government...
In the early 80s I would have thought this was the coolest thing and would have looked around, certain KITT must be nearby. I guess some people never grow out of the toddler fascination for BIG TRUCK.
on knight rider, there was a evil truck. named Goliath.
i had the little slot car set (which ruled).
Yes, I remember Goliath, piloted by what I seem to recall was Michael Kight's evil twin?? But it was a semi rig, not a coal roller.
How about the armored trucks for soccer moms ?
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/drive/mobility/article-vengeance-is-moms-meet-the-eight-seat-armoured-suv-perfect-for-parents/
That truck can be spotted a mile away, drawing more attention to yourself. There is a reason most armored vehicles are hard to spot. They want to blend in.
"Militarized Luxury"
Wut
Looks kind of awesome. Needs an EV version.
I think it is time to roll out the ICE Annihilator 9000 to defend all children everywhere in the name of Liam Conejo.
Brought to you by the people who wanted to ban games like Carmaggedon.
Agreed.
The only plus here is that things like that are becoming cost-prohibitive to drive thanks to the scarcity of fuel and subsequent price gouging, but I can't imagine the tiny peen syndrome required to make a vehicle like that attractive to a reasonable, grown man.
What else are you supposed to drop Tarquin off in?
All that, just to never even leave the 5 mile radius around their home, probably.
Such a wanton disregard for others is a clear manifestation of a DSM condition that should be treated.
More like the penis pump 9000
I just love the fact there's a Smart Fortwo in the space next to The Compensator
Insane the things people would rather have than money.
This thing will fold like a bedsheet if it actually gets into a collision with a car
My guess is it has exactly zero crumple zones, so that monstrosity won't fold, but the spines of everyone involved will
dont you mean crumple.
Needs some of those triple-wheels from the Damnation Alley RVs.
Batman se bakkie.
It looks kinda cool though.
A toy version of this at the age of 6 would be awesome.
A real version would be a nightmare.
I'd like to drive it on a muddy closed course once, it'd be fun!
The wheelbase looks too big to be fun. I'd prefer to go the opposite direction.
This was in nj right?
Idk, seems like a fun truck to get off roading with, but probably quite dangerous to drive in a city with... Also basically runs on burning money.
