It being 90% parking lot is the cherry on top

The closest america will ever get to having working public transport.

138
- NGL, I'd ride this thing to work every day.

  Getting to work!?!? That's a whole ass luxury cruise! XDXD

Not pictured: the aircraft that can transport this to any conflict zone in the world on short notice, to demonstrate dominance.

  What did canada do to deserve that?

- And the caterpillar road making machine that has to chop down the trees, burn them up, till, compress, mix ash with tar and gravel and level the road as it paves the way. The animals found obviously get turned into delicious burgers. Or so I've been would been told if and when that becomes a real thing one day soon.

My American mind can't even comprehend it. It's like a fuckin' cruise ship, but on a truck.

71
- Sounds a lot like you're comprehending it already
  
  42
- And there's a full sized passenger airplane just hanging off the side
  
  28
- Cruise truck!
  
  21
  
  I, as an American, never thought I'd see something that trumps my truck-boat-truck.
  
  Brings a tear to my eye.

- It is public transportation but you can move your car.
  
  Imagine if you wanted to go 7 hours away and have your car when you got there. You won't have to pay for a Rental Car or deal with that shit of 'We took your reservation but we don't have any cars". You also don't have to drive yourself.
  
  I would use it. If it was reasonably priced.

- May I ask where this is from?

  Season 3 of Phineas and Ferb. The episode is Road Trip.
  
  34
  
  Howl's Moving RV

  More seriously, I believe it’s from an episode of Phineas and Ferb.

The flags are pointing the wrong way. I'm having a hard time comprehending this, must be European.

38
- It’s AI gen
  
  33
  
  Yep
  
  1
- I've you've ever driven in 50 knot winds it makes sense
  
  18
I really want to know the AI prompt used to make this :p

35
- 🤣

Buccees is a choice inclusion. At least everybody has clean bathrooms.

33
- What good reason is there for a gas station on a highway cruise liner, though?
  
  14
  
  For roadtrip snacks, duh

This is a perfect illustration of how a dystopia can still be fucking rad

32
Just put it on a train instead and they'll be fine with it

31
- 38
  
  That train looks seriously awesome :p
  
  15
- Nazi Germany actually considered a 3 or 4 m gauge railway (this is the distance between the tracks; the train would be about double that). In comparison, the broadest tracks actually in use are 1.676 m wide. The plan was cancelled following WW2.

This would crack open any asphalt instantly.

31
- Implying there's enough solid, well maintained asphalt anywhere to crack.

It's a Texas thing. You wouldn't understand.

28
My mind doesn't need to comprehend it when I am this rock hard.

26
The airplane is the chef's kiss, haha.

24
Am European, can confirm. Well, my mind CAN comprehend this monstrosity, but it REALLY doesn't want to, so I'm not gonna force it 🤷

23
What is this, a car carrier for ants?

19
It's like an Imperial Star Destroyer, but with grossly unregulated capitalism.

19
- That is the BP Verizon Super Star Destroyer.
  
  13
I like the airport tower.

18
I'm struggling to comprehend it

18
Every day we get closer to Mortal Engines

15
Obviously fake. There aren't any fast food restaurants.

14
- there is a whataburger at the top, its legit hehe

  Oh you're right! For some reason that didn't look like the logo in my eyes
  
  3
- But there is clearly Buc-e's
  
  5
- Uh... You don't need anything other than that Buc-ees.
  
  4
- Whataburger is the only fast food Texas needs and it front and center at the top.
  
  2
- Denny's?

Don't give them any ideas

14
I still too socialist. better make the cars have to drive around in pointless circles

13
- Not pictured is the NASCAR track on the fifth level.
  
  Pointless circles, solved!
  
  14
I'm also really impressed with that tailwind.

13
Is the Phineas and Ferb's no-stop truck stop?

Perfect for driving across the US!!

SERIOUSLY NOBODY PULLED OUT THE RAT YET???

Love the plane stuck to the aide of it. Also that the American flag isn't on top but something that probably exist or is just a glitch on the AI.

  It appears to be a Texas flag.

He who controls the beaver nuggets controls the world.

I think Heinlein wrote a short story based on this concept

5
- There’s also a Phineas and Ferb episode about a thing like this!
  
  4
I'm sure the Germans would go for this.

god bless the usa

Isn't there a movie about this exact concept?

To be considered a authentic american nonsense thing, it must be fried and stuffed with a lot of cheddar

Looks like something out of a Dahir Insaat video.

- If Mortal Engines was set in northamerica

This is what the average American drives for their two hour commute.

Is this real? Basically what a yacht would look like if it was on land lol.

to have the seal of a "truly american bullshit" it must be fried and stuffed with a lot of cheddar

I know! The things they did in Soviet were insane.
