When you want pink nerf bars but you don't have the money to buy custom pink nerf bars so you DIY it. And yes. That pink matches my decals perfectly.

None of these people are taking their truck to a job site. Most people pull into job sites in a clapped-out Impala got on Craigslist for $20, a ham sandwich, and a handshake firm enough to rip your dick off. I use a Camry personally, for the gas mileage and because my grandpa was throwing it away

what is a car, actually?

a post about what people mean when they say "car"

hmm yes this is certainly a car related Take™ and i would like to put my thoughts into words and quite possibly images

there are a number of ways in which you can classify and categorize vehicles: body style, chassis type, purpose, etc. and this is a conflation of all of these.

first, a "car" is a term to describe a small number of the various body styles available - generally, but not always, something with a 3-box design; 2 or 4 doors; 3 pillars; and a separated, covered trunk.

you would be hard pressed to find anyone calling that first image anything other than a "car"

and yes, in this way, a van is distinct from the traditional sedan and coupe designs, usually with 3 doors, no B pillar, and an attached cargo area.

i could see and understand an argument like this, from a vehicle design perspective, but generally it would be easier to categorize stuff more granularly, into sedan, coupe, hatchback, liftback, SUV, CUV, van, etc.

second, there's chassis type - in the very olden days practically everything used ladder chassis, so there was very little distinguishing a "car" mechanically from a "truck", but in the past 50 years or so cars and trucks have separated in chassis design, with sedan and coupe chassis generally being unibody and trucks keeping ladder frames.

vans, as a rule, follow no rules. small vans tend to use chassis derived from "car" (that is, small unibody) platforms, large vans tend to use ladder chassis, and certain vans are weird, and do neither:

(this is referred to as "light truck" or "partial" monocoque because the cab portion of the van uses a unibody design but the back half uses a ladder frame)

people will generally refer to vans or even pickups with a small, "car"-derived unibody frame as "cars", whereas people tend to refer to trucks or vans with ladder frames as "trucks" and "vans", distinguishing them from cars explicitly.

again, i can see an argument for doing this.

third, and what mr. cars in posts was referring to, is purpose. "cars" are passenger vehicles, "vans" are cargo vehicles.

so, then, what the fuck is this?

it is, ostensibly, a cargo vehicle - it can carry large amounts of stuff and in fact has been designed to do that - but the vast majority of people who buy it will never use it that way. is it a passenger vehicle or a cargo vehicle? is it both? is it neither?

you've once again come upon a situation where it's difficult or impossible to cleanly divide stuff into two categories without any overlap, and the solution is once again to divide stuff into as many categories as are necessary. a truck is a truck and a sedan is a sedan. they may, and often do, serve similar functions, but having that level of granularity in how you can categorize things is very useful.

so, is a van a car?

idk thats a stupid question go touch grass

Trying to build a chaotic smash or pass slideshow to subject my friends to, if anyone sees this, give me some suggestions, I’m struggling to think of more things to add.

To give you an idea of what I’m looking for, here’s a few options on the list:

-The Grinch (specifically the Jim Carrey version)

- Glamrock Freddy

-The monoliths from vita carnis

-A ford f-150

-The flower women in original Alice in wonderland

-John Kramer from saw

Be as weird or as normal as you want, I need a couple basic ones too to even things out.
