Lol a Chevy from the 90s. Back before someone ripped a huge line of coke and went "but what if we made them BIGGER?!"
My wife refused to get a helmet when we got bikes because "I've never had an accident on a bicycle and we don't go fast enough to need it" , so I said "Fine, we'll have this discussion after the first ride"
I got up to the top speed of the speed-controller ebike, she followed, and when we stopped it old her to imagine a puppy runs out in front of her, she has nowhere to go but straight into a wall and smash her head into the concrete, the trees and smash her head into the wood, or jump off the bike and smash her head into the pavement. Because in a crash, your head is going to hit something, and in this case you could be the most careful person on the planet but you can't stop a puppy, or child, or DUMP TRUCK from blocking your path and forcing you to make a hard choice in less time than it takes to sneeze.
She decided to pick a helmet.
The hard surface your head will bounce off or grind into will not be nice about you failing to wear a helmet. Neither will I.
Sexist piece of shit who liked to step all over anyone he perceived as "beneath" him (everyone) and if you've ever thought to yourself "given the rest of the show, why would THAT be a thing? It feels gross and entire groups of people would feel marginalized by this" while watching it, it was probably a Berman Special. Like Seven's.... "uniform"...
Also from what I understand, racist. Like the ferengi.
Two reminders
1:it's pronounced "Rick FUCKING Berman",
B- FUCK RICK FUCKING BERMAN.
My work truck only clocks in at 1700. I might hit 2100 when I've got myself and all my tools loaded up.
I legitimately think my truck would break in half if it got hit by an EV.
It'll be beyond the environment.
Oof yeah, if you work IN the van, standing room would be fantastic.
Right now I have work tables I flip out of my truck bed that all my stuff goes on. If I had to fabricate things on the fly more often, I'd definitely want the tall enclosed space. Slap an exhaust fan on there and good to go.
I imagine it's great for cold days and rainy days, too...
"Everything I don't like is ~~communism~~ HAMAS!"
When you stop giving a shit about stuff like this, are you officially "old"?
Uhhhh asking for a friend...
I'd like to have one, actually. There's a few with a sloped front that allows for way better visibility that get great gas mileage.
Everything is expensive as shit though...
I'd love to get an Electric van. I don't need the huge amounts of height some have, it seems trucks get wider and vans get taller. the enclosed cargo space is great for peace of mind, though.
In a perfect world I would get a van with a small frame and small forward silhouette, with no hood or sloped hood, that sits no more than 8ft off the ground. Having a higher suspension, or the ability to raise the suspension for better off-road clearance is nice for some jobs, but not strictly necessary.
All things being relative, of course.
I haven't even been tortured yet!
