The fake sounds are the gayest thing ever created...... And the thing is ugly AF. I think they will come out with something electric that will blow ppl's minds.....

There are already electric vehicles making 5000 hp and available to buy and shit Rivian says their new truck will have 1025 hp the same as the Plaid so we know the potential for an EV has really no limits once they master the battery thing and that company has very deep pockets. ICE vehicles cant keep up.....

It took ICE vehicles 75+ years to produce a car that makes a 1000 hp for sale as a car to the public. It was the Bugatti in 2006. Tesla did it in with their very FIRST EV! First try.... Imagine in just 10 years how much power EV vehicles will be making.

The Rivian is an incredible vehicle. Has a crazy stiff frame, electro-hydraulic roll control with the front sway bar, very low positioned shocks, crazy front end with double wishbone control arms, air suspension to control ride height, crazy fast dampening. Thing handles almost as good an a modern day sports car does! Then u can take it off road and its even a bigger beast there the thing is freaking awesome!

The new Hyundai Iconiq 5N has the fake sounds to but they dont sound fake but still gay AF. Shit, that thing makes 650 hp and is one the best handling cars u can buy right now either gas or EV its an incredible machine! Has a motor at each wheel makes TQ vectoring possible and it works insanely well. Watch ANY review on that car on the track or spirted road driving and ull see for urself.
I’m not interested in a EV but a friend recently rented a Tesla. He’s a farmer from deep in Kentucky farm country but he is a motor head. Everything he has is a diesel or a big V-8. He loved the Tesla! He’s probably going to end up getting one of those Hummer EV pickups with the front and rear steerable wheels. Just the one weekend with the Tesla and he seemed sold.

Yea that turning radius is sick! That is one thing I absolutely love about that vehicle I mean it makes shorter turns then most compact cars do its crazy.

Its just so dam wide! I mean it takes up like the whole lane and finding parking is a nitemare. Those sorta things turn me off but its really beautiful but another deal breaker for me was those stupid 1987 Grand National T-Tops smfh. Are they serious with those smh. Ppl want retractable sunroofs not T-tops that rattle and leak over time its just a dumb fuking idea and how do u block out the sun. Dumb.

I gotta unlatch them, get the covers out, place them in the covers then put them back in the frunk its just plain stupid for a 2025 vehicle. Im sure it was much cheaper to design then a retractable sunroof but its a $110k car and u get 1980 parts smfh.

All three are about as equally exciting, the flashlight can save your life ...
