Visually, well, people are used to the yuuuge motor hood of American trucks might feel so. Looks like a delivery van to me.

TESLA and Elon Musk - anything not elsewhere

Musk's branching out into TRUCKS is the OceanGate of business decisions. The cars seem fairly workable. I've seen a bunch of videos on the pickup and his version of a semi tractor saying they're bad.

NPR National Public Radio

The problem is simple: Reality, facts, and solid information have a liberal bias.

Conservatives would only be happy with NPR if they broadcast right-wing fictions... which they should not do, regardless.
