Book value on that '95 would be less than on your average unused mid range coffin to be sure. A damned funeral today costs more than any vehicle I bought new for cash. This is what happens when corporate fronts for the mob by all of the funeral homes up in advance of the deaths of WWII veterans. For decades a good funeral was 3 to 5 thousand depending upon where you lived. Now the damn plot is 2 grand, the coffin 5 or 6 more for a mid range, think 10 grand for all oak, and the cost of transportation, embalming, etc. jacks the whole morbid experience up to between 12 to 17 grand depending upon where you live/died.

It's why that stud of an ole man I had wanted what he called his Viking funeral (cremation sans longboat) so he could stick it to the bastards one more time.

The whacko part is that a vault is only required to keep the damn formaldehyde from seeping into groundwater. If you are buried in 24 hours in a pine box without being embalmed it is environmentally safe, and much cheaper. What idiots we are. We shut down fuels for the sake of pollution but the greater threat is our dumb*** funeral practices which corporations (many of which claim to be green) lobby to keep so they can rape the dead for expense.

The whole electric car thing is just another way to drive up the cost for less effective technology, a less reliable vehicle, and piece of crap too expensive to buried in that requires batteries that are more dangerous to the environment than damned gasoline.

No real Southerner would purchase anything that silly. His buddies would laugh him out of the hunting club.

If you pulled up to my deer cabin in that thing we'd probably start shooting.

RE: Tesla Truck
I sold my 2010 Tundra because my wife kept hounding me that it was too big. I got a smaller Colorado and now she can't ybecause of her illnes get into that one. Man, I miss my Tundra, it had enough storage places to make a drug dealer happy, LOL. This Colorado is might pretty but like most mighty pretty women it ain't worth a Schiff. I'm sticking with it though as I don't have too many places to go other than just regular errands because I can't leave her alone for too long. Sometimes life sucks to no end. Oh well, that's my fate.

I miss my fishing trips. Sigh.

don’t bet against elon musk ...

FOOL’S ERRAND

Musk is going to have to understand what a truck is and why most of us buy one. That prototype is not a truck and not practical for 99% of those that buy a truck for its utility. I think he is capable of selling lots of trucks...just nothing like that. Its a basically a curiosity not a legitimate product to market to anyone currently driving a truck.



https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1391382205071511553

OK BOOMER

So...You really believe that the current pickup owner would buy anything like that concept truck? If so?...You are dumb as a box of rocks. I doubt Musk has any intention of trying to manufacture or sell one like that anyway. Thats why its called a concept vehicle. You can bet your life if Tesla sells a truck it will not look like that.

I'm not Tesla's audience, but I wish them well. It's an American company, named after a great American, producing American-made products, with class-leading technology engineered by fellow Americans. I find it hard to root against them even if I won't be buying their products. Different strokes for different folks.

I'm not rooting against him or his company. I laughing at this "truck". I find it hard to believe that it would go to market packaged like that. As someone else mentioned it's unlikely the final product will look like that but then again, it IS Elon Musk.
