I like the Chevy Van trying to fit in with the murder aesthetic.

Hey OP, did you film this? Mind if I upload it to Wikimedia Commons? Seems like a nice case study here lol

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I didn't film it. The source is Nantucket Current.

Did people do this 20 years ago?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

How many of them got stuck?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

Fuck cars, yes but this is just trashy and awful on another level.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

What an ugly place.

I hope half is not actually equipped for sand and will stay stuck.

Disgusting view

what an abomination,

yet cynics will still argue its better to do this than to build a parking lot near the beach

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hear me out - what if we made like big cars that could fit dozens of people and had the government buy a bunch of them and use them to ...shuttle... people between urban infrastructure and the beach. We could call it a "scooty rooty transportation station"

super dank, perfect for Muricans !

but sounds like socialism, so no

A couple of parking spots for several km of beach is reasonable, but it only works if you car is human-sized, not obese-triceratops-compliant

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well if you have to walk from the parking lot to the beach you'll burn calories.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What about a parking lot with a Mc Donaldβ€˜s? Seems like a good solution

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

Only works without mcdrive unfortunately

Hope they at least keep the engines off.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But how are you going to keep the AC running?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

By pulling the automatic carbine's trigger ofc

To justify buying an excessive and unnecessary truck.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

These are people who are compulsively attached to their cars like a comfort blanket because they've literally spent decades never going anywhere which doesn't involve being near their car. Like, they will drive to the airport, get on an airplane, and then rent a surrogate car the moment they land.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

When they break about their fourth they go "we got to drive right up on the beach!" It sounds cool, and image is all they care about.

Benefit of the doubt, I hope some people with disabilities that couldn't typically make the trek find this situationhelpful

Because if a true, red blooded 'murican doesn't ride his pickup everywhere, the gays win.

It's Nantucket, not Oklahoma.
