New #WeirdCarBluesky challenge!

What is the smallest "trunk" with an emergency release?

I've seen some tiny frunk compartments with them. Probably smaller than the Ram Box.

Pics, or it didn't happen.

Not me about to risk taking a $170k SUV off road

Rare NYC Fisker Ocean sighting that’s not a taxi. Delaware plates.

Nice callback to when OG Fisker planned to build cars in Delaware.

Backseat Bites sounds like Vampire erotica someone created on Chat GPT

Why do you hate disruption? 😂

Just confirmed with American Motors that the names for both of these were intentionally left unspecified 👀

Nameless new full-size SUV and REEV SUV for 2028 also sounds a lot like a Dodge/Ram Ramcharger to me.

Funny you used that Tesla, because I was looking at Elise prices the other day and they seem to go for around $50,000 now, which is what they were when they were new.

Am I the only one intrigued by the fact that yesterday's American Motors (Stellantis) announcement didn't use the name RAM when describing the new midsize truck coming in 2028?

Is Dodge Ram about to be a thing?

Since this US v AUS game is dull, here’s a sweet game-winning assist from today

WTF is this ad in my post?

Hahahaha. Did Bluesky just jump the shark in the worst way possible?

The steakouse was famous for its own seasoning.

My friend worked in a steakhouse where this one guy used to bring his own spices and ask the chef to use them.

I recall the Dodge version had a vent you could close in the glove box.

That might even fit in one of Honda's giant center console bins 👀

I had something recently, I forget what, that cooled the console when the air conditioning is on. I think the Dodge Journey did that with the glove compartment?

The problem is, you can't turn it off, so if you put your phone or wallet in the console it gets cold.

Arrgh, can't recall. Maybe a BMW?

OG Ford Flex had it in the second row

Hybrid was new for 2025 first time since 2015, that’s significant.

Kudos to Land Rover for carrying the console fridge flag. More vehicles need these.

Is their cut-off new or 2026 model year cars, or 2025?

The Civic Hatchback Hybrid was new for 2025. I think the Charger was actually a 2024 when the first ones came out.

Not sure about the rest of those commie cars.

They all migrated here!

Many of them have giant roof racks/cases and I've got one down the block with a full Line-x spray job and other protective gear. 😂
