I wonder what the future will bring in needless asinine changes to the platform. I fully expect Musk to suddenly crowdsource a new icon for the searchbar since “no one uses magnifying glasses anymore” and then pick the memeiest and dumbest replacement.

The Urus is probably better at off road than the Cybertruck ever will be at being, well, a vehicle.
Speaking of, I actually saw a Urus on the road here in Dallas last week. First time I'd ever seen one. It's definitely... unique. Better looking that the Cybertruck, but that's faint praise.

I see Uruses all over the goddamn place around me in the Tampa area. I must have seen like six of them in the past two or three months.

Fuckin ridiculous, they even have that fake plastic "diffuser" glued onto the rear bumper that every :airquote: sporty :airquote: car has. Just another misc. SUV

NPR and PBS are always worried about getting their grants and/or public funding pulled, too. They do a lot of good work, but they can also be quite cowardly.

Worse. It's someone who can afford the Urus (Base price of 250k) but is desperately trying to trick us into thinking it's the Mansory version (Base Price of around 1m)

Another thing the haters don't mention, sure there may not be that much room for storage in the bed of it, but there is no truck out there with more storage room on the dash of the truck. So many bags, tools, planks of wood, can all be stacked up there!

Let's get drunk and kiss each other all night.
I got confused by that pic because Lambo Urus are usually 4 door (plus hatch) but there is some high end modder Mansory that turns them into a 2 door.

I have no idea why. This isn’t car guys buying them, it’s freaks with way too much money.

Yes, this exactly. Does Elong not own a baking sheet?
What am I saying? He’s never used anything but a microwave on his own.

Elon Musk was allegedly unable to properly cook Pop-Tarts for himself, putting them in the toaster sideways and burning himself when taking them out.

There's a strong possibility that he doesn't know how to use a microwave.
