The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

One of the many reasons this death machine is banned in Europe
Regardless, there is a very large number of people trying their best to import it and finding a loop-hole to put these monstosities on the road.
I've never actually seen one in the Netherlands. Plenty of absurdly big pickups, but not a cybertruck
And hopefully it will never happen.
I listened to a supposed car collector saying how he is planning to import one and legalize it under the gize of being a private museum piece. Supposedly, such cars get a special license and insurance, and are permitted to circulate from one show to another.
Hopefully, it gets returned at the border.
There is exactly one way to put it on the road and that is: sitting on the back of an actually street-legal truck.
Considering the size of it, it would be a monstrosity atop another.
Can't be a normal tow truck, you need the big guns for that thing.

Tell me it is going headed to the recycling center.
Maybe they are taking it back to Norway (where they are street-legal, thus Norwegians can drive them into the EU)
