If I see one in europe im going to vandalize it.
We didn’t need your f150’s and we don’t need this. If you love american cars so much just fucking move you complex filled husk of a man.
What's your issue against F150s?
I assume they are talking about the newer models that have worse sight lines than literal tanks.
I'm still pissed the EVs were discontinued.
Yeah... that was a bummer. I don't think cybertruck and its mountain of failures is helping the case for "macho" evs
Not sure what qualities a car has to make it macho, but I saw a Fiskar Ocean the other day on the road in matte forrest green, and thought it was pretty sexy. I don't know their pitfalls yet, but it was enough to make me look them up. Not a fan of the giant screen in the middle, but maybe it would grow on me.
Edit: and they might be declaring bankruptcy and selling off their assets... Welp that sucks
Yeah they are pretty sweet in person. The prices are dropping fast, I'm seeing them for $15k. Even with some potential repair costs and having to figure it out myself (since there's no warranty) that's a pretty amazing deal.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but they just went bankrupt https://neuters.de/business/autos-transportation/ev-startup-fisker-files-bankruptcy-2024-06-18/
No fun
I was hoping to get a used one in a few years to use on the farm. The range and load capacity would be well within most errands. I'm now eyeing an Edison Motor's kit for an old square body.
