How did they let these die? They’re so stylish, we should bring them back immediately except with solid state batteries that can let them drive 200+ miles and charge in 5 minutes.
I kinda want to see what the wind would look like on this thing going 60 (96.5 km/h). I suspect you’d get more lift than is comfortable. And speaking as someone who’s had turbulence in a modern car (interstate driving into an Illinois windstorm), it’s terrifying even in a car that doesn’t want to roll over.
Edit: seriously thought about it and am more concerned about the moment/torque it might get from the wind
But we gotta keep the 1920s car design. You csn put a modern battery, and bluetooth, and inputs for auxilery audio devices, and modern stereo syatem, and gps, and all this other stuff…but we gotta keep the old car vibe.
This is why most cars these days are black, white or grey. “We don’t want something someone WANTS to look at, just something that isn’t offensive to the eyes” (sports cars don’t count here)
I was scrolling quick so I didn’t notice it was slop until I saw the comment so strangely enough it was actually more useful than I would’ve otherwise initially guessed.
You’re fucking using it. That’s like getting diabetes by eating shitloads of McDonald’s and blaming McDonald’s for it. Or a bartender blaming Phillip morris for second hand smoke.
I already don’t eat beef, own an electric car, and don’t have kids. Stop pointing at me as if I’m the problem. You don’t know shit about me, don’t tell me what to do.
“I am not a pedophile, I don’t mass murder, I don’t staple cats to trees. I’ll publicly piss on anyone I want! You don’t know shit about me, don’t tell me I can’t piss on strangers.”

Those older cars with the huge windows and great visibility handled rollover accidents by crushing the heads and necks of everyone inside.
At some point we decided the passenger cabin shouldn’t be the primary crumple zone, so you can’t make cars like that anymore.
Also, it probably has a top speed in the neighborhood of 30mph.
The low speed may have been that car’s only safety feature.
You wouldn’t want to go 30 in that thing. You’d feel like you’re in a rock tumbler.

I own a Wrangler…
Especially given the state of the roads at the time.
Assuming you’ve even got a road lol
I’d buy that.
I think one of these except more modern with all the advanced necessary features would actually be awesome.
You could probably make one with a bit of time and effort. People in wild west did.
(Driving it legally in most places would be a different thing.)

Nah buddy, 30’s design is where it’s at, look at this thing:
Without the monocoque, I doubt it can pass modern crash safety tests. Nor is there any safe place to install air bags.
What “monocoque?” That was made so long ago they were still talking about coachwork!
Honestly, people love to shit on the PT Cruiser but at least it tried to be a little different - arguably in a cool retro way!
The PT Cruiser looked amazing.
I’d be very happy if more manufacturers took similar style risks.
Buuuut, apparently we get the

Slop
Ironic meaningless comment.
And yet you had to respond…
Seethe more slop poster
You were the one who originally commented, ironic hater.
No irony there.
what a useful comment, so proud of you

I feel so bad for you, what a confusing existence.
You killed 3 fish and made a retiree not able to pay her utilities for that picture. Proud of you.
Tell that to the fucking billionaires, not me.

We know you’re using AI to generate slop and that’s precisely what we’re blaming you for.
Did you use your AI to generate some stigmata onn your body too? Get over yourself
“I am not a pedophile, I don’t mass murder, I don’t staple cats to trees. I’ll publicly piss on anyone I want! You don’t know shit about me, don’t tell me I can’t piss on strangers.”
That’s you. That’s what you sound like.
You’re fucking mental
Gross.
Yeah, I’d totally drive a non-taxi labeled version of that! That looks awesome!
Wait…who is driving? Oh no bear is driving! How can this be??? Show me the money! Oh no!
I don’t think you can just magically make a battery that goes that long without serious engineering work
If only some serious engineering work had been done in the past 100 years…
