Kind of like this ugly, flavor-of-the-month POS in chalkboard finish?  These hunks of junk should come with a box of colored sidewalk chalk…

For us bumpkins there's something more curious in this picture than a ridiculously expensive, ridiculously shaped "truck" (wouldn't pass muster as an actual truck around here, but I digress...) - the parking meter!  Seriously: Wal-Mart killed the parking meter in the rural south (and maybe elsewhere. I don't get out much). We all had them growing up, but when Wal-Mart killed all of the downtown traffic, so went the parking meters (and this is no commentary on Wal-Mart).  Most of the small towns around here would just about pay patrons to park downtown just to have the traffic.

As in a good market economy, we're seeing a great deal of repurposing of downtown real estate, but, at least in the small towns, retail traffic is not the focus these days and so the parking meters will likely not return.

We return you to the regularly scheduled ridicule of the dumpster-shaped coal-powered vehicle.

Yeah, saw one of those ugly things outside a movie theater last week. Again, good on anyone who likes 'em. I'll pass.

I have a high school classmate who has fallen up into a series of security services contractor gigs over the last 15 or so years. It has allowed him the luxury of buying a revolving garage of upscale cars, the latest of which is the abominable cyber truck. I ended up blocking him on the socials because he posted multiple glamor shots daily of his new ride.

To each, his own, I guess. But I can think of a lot of better vehicles on which to drop $150k.
