@tilton precisely that!
*Points at a proper pickup truck like @fuchsiii 's #Datsun1200 - LGBY
@vfrmedia yeah...
I mean I did unsarcastically play the #TokyoDrift Soundtrack driving @fuchsiii 's #Datsun1200 LGBY which is extra hillarious since it's a #Minitruck that tops out at ~ 90km/h when floored on the Autobahn on a flat straight, so one gets rather honked by big trucks with trailers than actually drift with that front engine, rear wheel drive body-on-frame truck what is literally offering an "unfiltered driving experience":
But it's cool…
@vfrmedia yes, it is!
#Facebook deliberately microtargets users.
Also car groups are notoriously connected around the globe, as trends from different markets swap around, and so parts commerce does as well.
@fuchsiii got her replacement door locks for her #Datsun1200 and starter from Thailand and Australia respectably given local #aftermarket & parts shops cater to these and that #Nissan not only never sold the [longbed] pickup version north of the Alps but dealerships in #Germany flatout refused to even reply a request for support or parts.
@tikibunnyimports Yeah, @fuchsiii faced similar issues with her #Datsun1200 minitruck because that never got sold in #Germany so there never was a Type Number (TSN) issued for it, making it basically impossible to just get an #insurance booked with a few clicks like with my #CorsaD 3-door...
Still, it did took quite some time for the #DMV to punch it into their system, since it's got no pollution classification, no HSN/TSN combo to drop-down, the vehicle hat greek papers and a non-standard #VIN (they literally took the VIN from the plaque inside the frame that #TechInspection wrote down!)...
Now granted, a 1985 Tatsun 1200 LGBY does have unfiltered driving as in:
The most it has are electric wipers with a literal bag of fluid, indicators and lights.
Obviously, we're dealing here with real #ExoticCars in the truest of forms, because it's less of a hassle to get a Bugatti or Koenigsegg registered: They already come with COC papers and stuff from the factory and propably even have a toll-free hotline for DMV employees to authenticate the papers and check that the car ain't stolen. (Cuz stuff like that did and does happen with many vehicles!)...
@tilton precisely that!

@tikibunnyimports awwww... <3
This thing is so cute - very friend shaped.
Almost as if a #Datsun1200 LGBY and a #Jeep CJ-4 had a child...
@tk precisely!
Even if you don't take a #Datsun1200, even a #Corsa-C has way less bs under the hood...
I just sadly didn't get the version with #DIN-Slots but just the crappy CD+FM combo, but at least A/C!
@treibholz @isotopp Kann das bestätigen.
Hab' mal nen #Datsun1200 - Pickup überführt, und da wirste bei Vollgas (90km/h) von Brummis behupt!
Zumindes über Tempolimit der EU-Nachbarn (150km/h) muss es fahren können...
@blnZeh @joerg_spengler nicht nur das...
Generell ist die #Verfettung von #Autos ein langfristiger Trend.
Ein ein 1986'er #Datsun1200 passt geradeso in eine #Garage die 1953 gebaut wurde. Mein 2007er #Corsa D 3-Türer garnicht, und das ist schon eines der kleinsten und schmalsten "Autos" im Sinne der EG-Fahrzeugklasse M1.
#WasFehlt ist nicht nur #Autokorrektur und #OneLessCar sondern klare incentives gegen die #Enshittification mit #SuperUselessVehicles!
@[email protected] #Hauptproblem ist dass die #Enshittification und #Verfettung seitens @[email protected] vorangetrieben word, indem mehr und mehr "#Bloatware" vorgeschrieben wird. Beispielsweise #Massenüberwachung per #eCall. #WasFehlt sind #AntiSUV's aka. #PersonalLightVehicle sowie besserer #ÖPNV, #ÖPFV, Fußgänger- und #Radinfrastruktur als auch wirksame #Konsequenzen gegen #MotorisierteGewalt die wie wir bei #Natenom sehen konnten allzuoft lebensgefährlich ist oder gar tödlich endet. https://github.com/KBtechnologies/PLV #SUV #PLV
@fuchsiii @benbloodworth If they can nail the D21 to be literally as #smol and #cute as your #Datsun1200 that would be awesome...
If not do these all as #KeiCars!

@[email protected] YES! Make #smol cars great again! Also they should offer those within #KeiCar standards worldwide!!!
