People shouldnt knowingly buy dangerous vehicles.

They likely didn’t know they were dangerous when they preordered and many are now stuck with them. I think they have a no resale contract for 2 years after buying.

I mean I don’t mean to sound ridiculous, but they even looked dangerous. I am not sure why anyone would assume they were safe. I didn’t even think they were street legal at first.

That is a bummer to be stuck with one though, but you do have to be rich enough to buy one too.

I suspect that looking dangerous is a positive for a great number of truck buyers.

Yeah I think they would be alright personal use offroad vehicles. Although they didnt build them for that, they could have.
