I'd say that Floridian trucks are evolving, but they don't believe in evolution. Satan himself must have left a gift.

let see how they outrun the ocean in that, once its starts reclaiming the land, or invasive species whom floridians like to import.
You know what the first thing I think whenever I see a guy driving a large truck?
Why do the doors have vaginas
Those are called "Trident" doors. They're part of some off road armor package that seems to serve no purpose, at least no information is available on the seller's website.
So I can only surmise it's because somebody thinks a broken spatula looks cool on the side of a 300,000 dollar Dodge Ram.
I mean look at the thing, how could they not? ;)
This is pretty tame by Florida standards
5mpg tops
Impractical as heck but cool looking.
- Dodge RAM?
- Nah, not cyber enough
- Cybertruck?
- Nah, not manly enough
I get so mad seeing these in the parking garage at work. Like, you drove that to park it at an office and then go up the elevator? WTF? And yes I'm in West Central FL and the arms race of ever bigger vehicles is insane.
Though at least my neighborhood isn't just a bunch of those garage houses, it's older and varied and not many garage front houses. So many trucks though. Some are guys who need them for work, some are not.
Wtf these things are common?
Well not so common but at least a couple times a week I see the ones with four back tires, too wide for the road, on the road.
Also those ridiculous cybertrucks.
That’s actually cool.
There’s a point where modifications get so outrageous and unique that they can get away with this. There’s nothing special about a lifted dodge, but this. One doesn’t just casually acquire/maintain something like this.
I see what looks like nice double wishbones on the front too, and an okay height for its stance. It isn’t one of those crumby lifts that ruins the suspension.
I mean, that thing is pretty badass but obviously doesn't need to be anywhere near city roads. Some dude out on a 100 acre ranch? Sure, probably. Still an abomination but at least it would have some utility. But in a city? Nah.
So how much petrol/uranium this things consumes per 100km
The tank is probably empty by the time it gets to the end of the street.
If that thing came powered with something like a 5.9 cummins hybrid and 6 independent traction motors. That would make a wicked boat, landscaping truck. Put a proper dump box on the thing or a tilt and load. Fuck that thing could make money if done right.
