Put a tire on the back (like a penny) for wheelies!

It is!
Like, this is what baby trucks look like before they grow up :)

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 36 points 4 days ago

Gotta admit, though, it looks like some nice bodywork. ATBGE

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

This looks like the truck equivalent of a really short guy with huge muscles and a perpetual scowl, who always keeps his shoulders directly above his knees and his hands in karate-chop pose while he walks.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 days ago

You know, it absolutely does. It does look like him..

[–] mattbnr@lemm.ee 17 points 3 days ago

I don’t hate it….in fact I kinda like it

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I want to pull it backwards until it disappears

I mean this is basically the chode of vehicles. It's the accurate representation of what those lifted hibeam smokestack truck owners are actually like lol

Edit: Those mfers are Tonka tough. Still going through life with the mind of a toddler.

Nah this thing has purpose, unlike most ridculous obnoxious lifted trucks that are poor for both offroading and towing. This would almost definitely perform extremely well offroad and likely was made just to be an offroader. It might not be your hobby or taste, and that's fine, but someone has created a really cool and special vehicle here

Yep - pulled up next to a Small-Penis-Mobile the other day, new Ford extra cab, super duty diesel, with that stupid Roosh package no less, so we know he paid a LOT extra. And it was black, shiny and clean, even the tires. Fucking garage queen for a twat.

Lifted, stupid tires, some stupid gizmo in the receiver.

I bet I've towed more with my 20-year-old "toy truck" than that douchebag ever will. Oh, and he was on speakerphone holding the phone up with his right hand, going 5mph under the limit, holding up traffic.

I probably get better fuel economy with 250k on the odometer, and I don't spew out the crap he does.

Asshat.

Steal a manhole cover, paint it to look like a penny.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I just realized that I had to think for a while about what a penny looks like. God we banned them here in Canada so long ago...

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And I'm so happy we got rid of them.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You sound like someone who hasn't seen the glorious ATF violation know as penny coin shot.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Two patents exist for quarter-shooting pistols designed for shooting coins at toll booth baskets from 1965 and 1988. Source: wikipedia.

This is the world AnCap libertarians want.

Oh no I was referring to cutting pennies into halves and quarters, then putting them into 12 gauge shells.

I'd end up pulling it too far back and it would snap.

[–] theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

This is unironically awesome. Needs a bigger lift to give room for suspension travel though

It's absurd and hilarious and I love it.

But is it just a stock Tacoma with big wheels or did they do more body mods to it? It looks way smaller than even older style trucks like the bed was shortened or something but that could just be an illusion due to the size of the wheels.

He’s just popped out to retrieve the wives from Furiosa.

[–] kruhmaster@sh.itjust.works 13 points 4 days ago (4 children)

That thing has to turn weirdly.

[–] logos@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 days ago

Looks like if you accelerate too quickly it will do a backflip.

Probably turns on a dime and crawl and fit around hazards offroad like a champ

A monster truck the size of a minivan

[–] PillowTalk420@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

World's biggest RC car.

[–] Pnut@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

Say what you will. Make the wheels smaller and you have a pretty useful tuck if you're in the city.

[–] Rin@lemm.ee 6 points 3 days ago

Look at the DUMPY on that thing

Truck equivalents of the Airbus A318 babybus aren't real, they can't hurt you

Mileage... 3 Mpg...yes

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 3 points 3 days ago

Lil, I was just wondering today if something like this existed. A truck with the small two-seat cab and a bed that matches today's truck aspect ratios.

[–] peetabix@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

A stump truck
