Funny

I wouldn't want one if it was given to me for free I'd be trying to offload it ASAP. I've heard news about people being trapped in their burning "Bulletproof" scifi refrigerator and dying. None for me thanks.

There's also the scenario that he got a killer deal in a private sale from someone who just wanted to unload it at any price. They just didn't want to be seen driving it, or keeping it in their driveway.

I've met a few SwastiKKKar owners who claim they bought it before they knew Musk was a psycho, and would get rid of it, if that were possible. There is absolutely no used market for Teslas.

You're kind of both missing the point. It isn't really about the truck. MAGAs should be bullied and abused as much as possible. The truck is only a good excuse to heap on more scorn. He could have driving a perfectly acceptable ride, and I'd still excoriate them.

MAGAs are the only acceptable targets for bullying, and it should be savage.

Same thing that happened to the rest of Musk's bullshit.

Implicitly

I wonder if she ever took the plunge and bought a real cyber truck when they came out.

If you enjoy racist boomer humor, then yes.

Is it worth it? I think so, I enjoyed it. Does it hold up? Complicated question.

The Clarkson-Hammond-May show ran for a couple decades and went through three major phases: journalism, shenanigan and adventure.

In earlier seasons they were more of a typical car show, they did more journalism relevant to the average driver...in early 2000s Britain. Top Gear isn't looked back on fondly for Richard Hammond reporting on viewer polls for new car reliability in 2002. They still made an entertaining show, the cool wall and things like that are entertaining, but I would start you out with later episodes and let you watch these later if you like it. Series staples like taking sports cars for a fast lap around their track to compare their times, and doing celebrity interviews complete with a racing lap around the same track in a compact car, the "Star In A Reasonably Priced Car" segment, begin here.

5 or 6 years in they started the shenanigan era, which is probably what peopel mean when they say "This reminds me of Top Gear." They'd buy three used cars and go do ridiculous things, like turn them into camper vans, or outfit them for racing, or make sports cars into ambulances. In the words of Richard Hammond, "What this was, was fun. And I think we're quite good at fun." If I can point to an episode to introduce new viewers to the series, it'd be the British Leyland challenge episode. The show really starts to shine in this era; the three hosts have great chemistry together and the shenanigans give them more opportunity to play off one another.

That gradually transitioned into the adventure era, as "three guys drive some old cars to the other side of London" becomes racing Veyron against a Cessna 182 across the length of Europe, or driving three old four-by-fours across South America or three ordinary RWD cars across Botswana. The show gradually abandoned the studio segments and became just, the three guys go somewhere in the world and drive some cars in interesting or spectacular locations. There's great stuff here, their Botswana trip is amazing, their Korea trip is amazing, their Nile trip is wonderful, their North Pole trip is NUTS. But I'd watch earlier cheap car challenge episodes first.
