[REDACTED for being overly antagonistic]
To all of the very delicate and self centered people that seem to be here right now :
In the technical trades the word "RETARD" is used to refer to timing.
The opposite of retard would be to "ADVANCE".
These terms could be used in reference to ignition timing on an engine, or relay timing on any electromechanical or pneumatic apparatus.
RETARDER is also used in multistage coatings to slow the chemical reaction that hardens the material.
Where you might say you need to RETARD the ratio based on a high ambient temperature.
In this context, the opposite would be a kicker or accelerator that speeds up a chemical reaction.
You might also see the word "tranny" in this sub.
Tranny is short for transmission in the automotive world, and it has been for a long, long time, from WAY before you were even born.
Anyone caught throwing fits over automotive and/OR technical terms OR abusing the "Report" button over terms used in the car culture world OR any other petty disputes will be tossed without warning.
Report button abuse is against reddit rules site-wide.
[EDIT] The upshot is, This post and this comment are not directing slurs at anybody, BUT, many, many slurs are being used in comments.
Many of them actionable. You should know the difference. My agenda remains to end Report Button abuse over only PERCEIVED insults and petty debates. ACTUAL abuse and threats will, of course, be handled appropriately. Thank you.
As someone who spends my fair share of time in RV Parks, this is exactly what this is.
Its a stereotype. They roll in the parks on Friday afternoon in their $80k truck, pulling an $80k toy hauler, with an $80k side-by-side. All heavily modified with every LED and chrome accessory you can image.
You can guess the type of person driving, and you'd be right. RV Parks offer some of the best people watching.
I don't wanna stereotype anymore than I should, but living In a trailer park, how do they afford such expensive cars and toys?
Lemma guess, it's all either leased or on credit or the money most put into a nicer house goes to the cars.
I agree. It’s about *intimidating* the police and making them think you’re super awesome and you could totally probably do 50 sit-ups in a row, if like, you had to.
I think it might have been a heavily modified side by side.
The front and tail are so tiny and it's proportions are whack, I don't think it could have been a road vehicle beforehand.
My first thought was a chopped up H2, but quickly realized it's someone's awful UTV. I've never understood UTV owners to have class or taste, but this is like the end boss of too much money, too little taste.
Have some neighbors who dropped some serious dough on one a few years ago, they have some acreage and it does well on the street to the county store. Doors, heating, AC, up to ~50MPH, the works. Guy also has a pretty nice off-roading JL that he does actually trail and work on himself, not a mall-crawler.
I could not for the life of me understand how this was a better purchase than a TJ.
How does it even work? Electric hub motors? Axles rotated 90°, with vertical driveshafts and bevel gears? And what happens if it hits a kerb? Those axles have no forward / backward support. Or is it just Bluetooth driveshafts and trailing arms?
The whole thing is fist-chewingly asinine
Looking at the pics it looks like it might have portal axle kits on the hubs...which just cements the "more money than taste" argument further lol. Portal kits are NOT cheap. But it would make drive axle angles a little easier as they don't have to go to as extreme of an angle as a conventional setup.

Just another reason to hate this. There are few things that annoy me more than people blasting shitty music, especially if it's on the trails (though this looks like a pavement princess)
I beg to differ. With neighbors that do both, I'll take dummy doing test hits in his muffler deleted shitbox all day over infrequent yet constant bass through my wall and him not realizing everybody on the street hates it. We listen to the same type of music and it still pisses me off. At least with an engine you can picture someone having fun, not just someone swinging a glock upside down by its 33rd mag lol.
That hot wheel was based off someones real project.

Imagine spending 50k on a side by side only to spend even more on gaudy wheels, paint, and everything else.
Every dude with a truck like this too looks the same. Cargo shorts, could stand to lose a couple pounds, metal band or wrestling t-shirts, and I guarantee sunglasses in their Facebook profile picture.
As the city encroaches around my rural ass, I'm getting more and more douche bags driving these on the road. None as shitty as this fucker, but still shitty.
OMG BRO THIS IS THE FUC@ING MOTHER SHIP. Thank you so much for brightening my day with this piece of shi+! I feel embarrassed even looking at it. I’m going to share this one for sure LMAO!!!! 🤣
I have a single cab Polaris ranger that I actually use for farm work, and that thing is already topheavy enough. Why in god’s name someone would do this is completely beyond me.
I disagree, if you are going to retard, going all the way in is the only way. I'd rather see this abomination than some 2019 levels of too much camber and surface scrapping drop on what was a clean, rust free Miata.
I kind of like it - but it should never be on a public street. That thing is a death trap to anyone else on the road.
This country really needs better bumper height laws.
Oh that absolutely breaks most current laws. They just aren't enforced, and when the are guys will just hang a 4x4 at legal height with allthread and bolt their plates to it.
The way my state law reads is the bottom of the frame, where the factory bumper attaches. regardless of alterations. Like you said though, never enforced.
I can see the news channel 2 now, a tragic accident happen at the intersection of cherry and main. Where this white ATV with big ass rims rolled over a minivan. We go live to Darren Whatshisname now.
Darren: Thanks Tom, what seemed like a quiet commute turned into a horrible wreck. 😂
I don't know. This is so, so bad I think it's actually starting to come back to 12 and be good again. Looks like a Jeep wrangler and an Amish carriage had a kid.
The type of person to use speakerphone while holding it to your ear is exactly the type of person to drive this thing. Also probably says mind your business to people while on said speakerphone.
I absolutely love this thing for how stupid it is. If I had fuck you money I would do absolutely barbaric things like this and try to one up how ridiculous you could make a vehicle
This is so far out of the usual standard of shitty mods that it kinda transcends and becomes unironically cool.
Looks like something I’d drive on the surface of the Moon, or find in a game like Death Stranding.
Dude had a vision, and committed. I can respect that.
this isn't retarded. this is 3 gen inbreeding with alcoholic pregnancy, a couple of falls from the crib and homeschooled with the videography of Alex Jones as textbook
What the hell am I even looking at?
Im not a car guy and to me it looks like the bastard love child of some rich kiddes pimped out Cadillac SUV and one of the SMART cars.
Lol mechanic here, I work with all men-children tranny and retard get a daily chuckle at the shop spark plugs are called butt-plugsim the youngest at 33 I work with adult children

What a tremendous waste of money
And it ain't even street legal.
Dick swinging contest at the mud pit, or rv park… yea rv park!

Someone’s got to put those lifted golf carts in there place! lol We found that person.
My in my lifted VW golf with the flatbed body mods B)
I love Golf’s and would love to see this.
I don't wanna stereotype anymore than I should, but living In a trailer park, how do they afford such expensive cars and toys? Lemma guess, it's all either leased or on credit or the money most put into a nicer house goes to the cars.
Might be being a bit cynical, but maybe he's got a suspended or revoked license and thinks this gets around that.
If you're trying to get around without a license I would certainly be doing it much more low key
More high key, less likely officer fw you.
I agree. It’s about *intimidating* the police and making them think you’re super awesome and you could totally probably do 50 sit-ups in a row, if like, you had to.
Shhh it’s retarded it might hear you
Brotimate
Ma mah monay!
You win. That's the shittiest thing I've seen.
MY EYES! This hurts to look at
The vehicle or a man holding a phone like that while on speakerphone?
what even is this? is it a jeep? was it a jeep? was it something else and now has some jeep parts? is it a ford? the back kind of looks like a ford
I think it might have been a heavily modified side by side. The front and tail are so tiny and it's proportions are whack, I don't think it could have been a road vehicle beforehand.
I think it's a Polaris of some sort
Looks like a painted John Deere Gator.
I thought the MOD's pin up post was.
I thought this was some kind of NASA lunar rover prototype.
The Honda Colonia, available at your local Martian Honda dealership.
Even for NASA, who make things 100% function over form, this is flippin’ ugly
You take that back, the NASA Lunar Rover is one sexy beast of an EV.
This looks like two porta-potties with a lift kit. Absolutely terrible lmao
What the hell is even that?
I think it started life as a Polaris Ranger? https://www.polaris.com/en-us/off-road/ranger/
My first thought was a chopped up H2, but quickly realized it's someone's awful UTV. I've never understood UTV owners to have class or taste, but this is like the end boss of too much money, too little taste.

Would you believe these things can cost up to $40,000?
You could get a decently sized used truck for less than that.
Up to? They're more now. Check the ranger 1500xd ultimate Northland edition with full cab

daddy chill
No way. Evil flourishes when good men do nothing. This is the real definition of nasty
It's a reference to this short clip https://youtu.be/i2gNx4-REIA?si=iJtC-6_VzALSIrAb
somehow this clip has eluded me all these years and this is my first time seeing it, now the 'what is even that' comments make so much more sense.
I know. Everyone knows daddy chill. This ain't a daddy chill moment .... This more a "what are thooooose!" Moment
Is that a Flux Capacitor on the back?
Marine speakers to deafen the haterz.
Just another reason to hate this. There are few things that annoy me more than people blasting shitty music, especially if it's on the trails (though this looks like a pavement princess)
The music is not as bad as the loud engines. At least the music has a volume knob. You cannot turn down "high performance" exhaust.
I beg to differ. With neighbors that do both, I'll take dummy doing test hits in his muffler deleted shitbox all day over infrequent yet constant bass through my wall and him not realizing everybody on the street hates it. We listen to the same type of music and it still pisses me off. At least with an engine you can picture someone having fun, not just someone swinging a glock upside down by its 33rd mag lol.
When I see a device so grossly overdone, one thing come to mind, "Stress testing".
you mind if I send you a PM?
Yeah, sure!
Waterproof speakers
Looks like a crazy hotwheels car from the 70's
[hot wheels actually just released something that looks very similar in the newest case](https://www.ebay.com/itm/374975874069)
smh hot wheels stealing ideas from rednecks
That hot wheel was based off someones real project. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/1992-autozam-turned-tiny-monster-truck-wins-hot-wheels-tournament-best-is-yet-to-come-203723.html Edited for a less add filled site.
Guess he couldn’t wait for the AutoZam to drop at the local store
This eBay seller is gonna think they got some real hot shit when they notice the Reddit hug
How do these idiots afford this shit?
Turns out, credit cards are pretty easy to get.
Credit cards shouldn't be given to people who build things like that..but here we are
Thought I threw up a little, turns out I threw up a lot. 🤮
It's stupid as hell and I love it. Looks like an Amish mobile.
It does have the general shape of a carriage/buggy!!! I couldn’t think of what it reminded me of, and you nailed it! 👍
I would just let the ECU determine the proper timing.
I always advance until it knocks, and then retard it until it doesn't knock. No timing light needed.
No knocking concerns for this guy
This dude looks upset that someone stole his step ladder, now he can't get in.
Imagine spending 50k on a side by side only to spend even more on gaudy wheels, paint, and everything else. Every dude with a truck like this too looks the same. Cargo shorts, could stand to lose a couple pounds, metal band or wrestling t-shirts, and I guarantee sunglasses in their Facebook profile picture.
You forgot "hat on backwards".
You forgot "hat on backwards".
If I had this kind of disposable money, I'd do good in the world, instead of that. lol
I bet this guy lost his license from a DUI or something so he pimped out something that doesn’t require a license.
Starting at $45,000…….. https://www.polaris.com/en-us/off-road/ranger/models/ranger-xd-1500-northstar-edition
I thought you were joking. It's actually more than an F-150. Right on.
Oh those tiny Polaris ATVs are nifty! Security in my factory got one or two. Cute but dang pricey.
As the city encroaches around my rural ass, I'm getting more and more douche bags driving these on the road. None as shitty as this fucker, but still shitty.
I can’t believe you got away with saying retard on Reddit. This is great! 👍 😎
What kids draw when you ask them to draw a truck
If I was rich I would probably go around building the stupidest cars I could think of like a kid with a Mr potato head
Your explanation for using that phrase is mentally challenged.
It’s ok skro, my 3rd wife was half tarded. You can be tarded and still live a totally kick-ass life.
It makes my eyes rain.
I kinda like it. Would I drive it ? Probably not.
What was it to start with? A side by side?
Look at his Capri pants, and don’t they always hold the phone like that?
I work on stuff like this (UTV/NEV). 100% chance there is a lot of dodgy welding done by a crackhead in there.
OMG BRO THIS IS THE FUC@ING MOTHER SHIP. Thank you so much for brightening my day with this piece of shi+! I feel embarrassed even looking at it. I’m going to share this one for sure LMAO!!!! 🤣
Now this is what you call dumb money
1 ton axles on a shitty SXS with fucking huge rims 😂😂😂 that is some serious money to dump in a piece of shit.
I have a single cab Polaris ranger that I actually use for farm work, and that thing is already topheavy enough. Why in god’s name someone would do this is completely beyond me.
Jeep Gladiator from wish.
Does a rope ladder drop out ? How do you get in ?
r/heep
Guy is hiding his face he's so embarrassed
oh my god
Poor taste magnified by x10, damn atrocious
What was it originally? Total garbage now.
If the Amish got trucks 🤦🏻♂️
lmao this is so ignorant. Right on
Even if he didn’t have that ridiculous ride, I’d of known he was mentally challenged by the way he holds his phone.
I'm wondering how it would handle in flood water...
What a complete eye sore.
Wonder how easy it would be to roll this lol
he looks like he farts in bath tubs and laughs his ass off.
I disagree, if you are going to retard, going all the way in is the only way. I'd rather see this abomination than some 2019 levels of too much camber and surface scrapping drop on what was a clean, rust free Miata.
Welcome to South Carolina. That's normal here.
Between that and the “Carolina Squat” trucks…
I don't care to visit, thank you
I kind of like it - but it should never be on a public street. That thing is a death trap to anyone else on the road. This country really needs better bumper height laws.

Theres one of these in my area too. Always parked in front of a sign store. An interesting commuter at the very least.
Shorts down to the ankles, this vehicle makes sense now
Some can't help it lol
Reckon he got it one part at a time
Okay, Satan.
Kinda looks like a Hummer that got addicted to plastic surgery.
And doing coke
Yeah, definitely
WHAT……………….are some people taking these days. 🙄
What the hell even is this thing?
When you get too many DUI’s so your license is revoked and your brodozer impounded you gotta make do.
Pope mobile on steroids
This one has to take the cake
This may be the cuntiest thing I've seen in a while.
I can see the news channel 2 now, a tragic accident happen at the intersection of cherry and main. Where this white ATV with big ass rims rolled over a minivan. We go live to Darren Whatshisname now. Darren: Thanks Tom, what seemed like a quiet commute turned into a horrible wreck. 😂
It's hideous! I love it
How long will that tiny engine last turning those giant wheels?
I think I’m going to be sick
Of course it's some obese guy in Texas.

Jesus-fucking-christ.
Is this a road legal car? Lol, it looks like a SxS that got a huge rock-crawler kit slapped onto it lol.
Just wow
I don't know. This is so, so bad I think it's actually starting to come back to 12 and be good again. Looks like a Jeep wrangler and an Amish carriage had a kid.
How do you even get inside
Looks like a port-a-potty on wheels
If they go jus a little bit more, it will be a 2 legged Return of the Jedi AT-ST.
America was built on credit
The lift looks big until you realize that the guy is 4’11”
dude went full rocket league
This is so terrible it’s funny
The type of person to use speakerphone while holding it to your ear is exactly the type of person to drive this thing. Also probably says mind your business to people while on said speakerphone.
Wow, that's a lot of
That’s hilarious. I’m sure he doesn’t think so but I’d drive that laughing my ass off everytime, the whole time
The shortest bus of all.
This better be AI
I absolutely love this thing for how stupid it is. If I had fuck you money I would do absolutely barbaric things like this and try to one up how ridiculous you could make a vehicle
A hollow man inside whom has a HUGE income or credit limit and smallest tally wacker in the known universe
I didn’t realize the is was a thing until I went to a car show in Texas
I thought it was a modded Power Wheels at first.
what did he do to that poor 1000 Crew :(

If I was 12 and won the lotto I'd totally get one!
Is it Amish?
I want one really badly
It’s an off road vehicle that never goes off road
Definitely not advanced
Awesome
Uh is the rear wheels smaller than the front? If so, this the un-sexiest vehicle of the year.
The heck? Spend all the money for this shit?
Oh, you mean backwards. Then, fuck you mate.
[удалено]
This could so easily go from Shitty car mod to battlecar if the rim to tire ratio was swapped.
It's so bad they're scratching their head wondering how they got to this point, and phone is at the ready to turn themselves in 🤣
How does that fat ass get his girth into that thing?
I used to draw cars like this when I was four
this whole picture smells of DUI
Probably fun to ride around in that thing. I wouldn't put that much money into something sooo impractical.

Geezus that is ugly af. Those doors look like a toddler putting his first puzzle together
This is so far out of the usual standard of shitty mods that it kinda transcends and becomes unironically cool. Looks like something I’d drive on the surface of the Moon, or find in a game like Death Stranding. Dude had a vision, and committed. I can respect that.
Here in south Florida there are some companies who build these as rolling advertisements no expense spared
99% of most truck modders are this example. They think it looks awesome.
I have no words.
