2024 September 13: "All Things Electric Show" IV: Big Money

The biggest personal vehicle at the show was the electric Hummer, the ultimate "I am big because of my car" vehicle, a modified military monster. I've darkened this photo so you can plainly see the cool "HUMMER" built into the headlights.

It's just a really big SUV. I can't think of more to say, sorry.

Except this, of course. This is what you're really proclaiming as you hum through the streets. "I am rich enough to do this". I keep in mind that there were 30,000 weddings in America in a recent year, that each cost over $1M to stage, and totalled some $50B of America's spending. The same as "free college" would cost.

I have a lot of pictures from the show, might as well go on. Here was another large electric truck.

And this truck is only $85,000 and change - $100K cheaper than the Hummer! And can also carry your smaller furniture. All of them have hoods that came up to my shoulders. Keep your children close when they are around, the drivers are blind to them.
