        Except this car is nuclear powered, and you don’t have to sit with a bunch of stinky commoners!

            Ah, but the lovely smell of money covers up all that icky poorness.

              It’s cute that they think that, but they smell just as bad as the rest of us. Especially when they try to cover it up with fragrances.

        If there was a train that went from my house to the grocery store which is 20 miles away, then I’d take it, but there’s not.

          That’s why people usually live close together in villages or cities

    The dad is so large and square. There’s still a huge, round steering wheel that, I assume, is mechanically connected to the steering. They are playing Scrabble, so that must one smooth ride. I like this a lot, if Cybertruck had an options package to make its cabin a little bit more like this, maybe they would sell better. Square Dad should be DLC.

      They’re playing dominos I think, not scrabble.
