The good news just keeps a-comin'...

Agreed it belongs on the hall of shame. My personal #1 on that list is the YJ. Square lights and a 2.4 I4 on a Wrangler. Just wrong.

Early prototype?

Too funny the degrees of connection here. Google “Jimmy Jack McDaniel” and it won’t disappoint

I only know of this guy because my brother is an LEO out there.

God bless em. We wouldn’t have the Toyo Open Country A/T III EV tire if it wasn’t for the Tesla Door Wedge, Hummer EV, Rivian & Lightning customers needing a unicorn - reduced rolling resistance AT tire that wouldn’t gobble up their range.

Every time, I see the cyber truck I think of a reimagined Pontiac Aztec and Montana molded in a Truck and then stole a little Delorean and added that to the mix. Maybe Elon found the same designer!?

How can you possibly leave the 61 Amphicar from this group? @DubDub graciously provided a "wade mode" driver's name for further research. BTW, both vehicles apparently performed equally well in H2O. A couple of the Amphicar's more interesting facets from Wikipedia-

"... only modest performance compared to most contemporary boats or cars, featured navigation lights and flag as mandated by the US Coast Guard – and after operation in water, required greasing at 13 points, one of which required removal of the rear seat."

"publication Petrolicious described the Amphicar as "good for one thing: fun. It's not quick or flashy, but it's iconic, unique and friendly. What more could you ask from a vintage car? The Amphicar might not make any sense and that's precisely why it's so wonderful." "

I bet the Cybertruck would be a cool vintage rig... until the batteries leak... better go with the Amphicar and there's no waiting for rarity to manifest.
