Forgive me, sire; I hadn’t $80,000 to spend on a luxury truck.

You fuck.

I’m not even sure what my headlights look like. I never really see them.

Whenever I see these razor thin LED headlights on vehicles, my first thought is are those COB chips getting cooled properly?

It just comes across as very sus, a bit like form over function at the expense of headlight longevity

And the fucking dangerous high front which is completely unnecessary on an electric car, why is it there. Not even the TESLA FUCKING CYBERTRUCK pulls that shit, say what you will about Tesla, but they understand how the differences between gas and electric cars can be taken advantage of.
