To the Wes Andersonmobile!

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 44 points 2 months ago

That pic is kind of beautiful.

[-] recursivethinking@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

Honestly it took me a while to convince myself this wasn't a painting. At one stage I wondered if it was a Wes Anderson set.

Thanks. What is that old saying? Art is knowing when to stop and how to frame it.

spoiler

I just made that up basing it kind of on a quote from 6 degrees of separation

It looks like it was taken with a quality 90s camera. Idk there’s something about the lighting and low saturation that makes me think, “this hasn’t gone through the ML algorithms phones automatically put on photos taken with them”.

This is more than mildly interesting. I’d say it’s somewhat interesting. Dare I say it’s intriguing?

[-] EntheoNaut@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 months ago

Color me intrigued 🧐

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 38 points 2 months ago

how do they get the car down?

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 48 points 2 months ago
[-] AlteredEgo@lemmy.ml 38 points 2 months ago

You can see an itty bitty crane lol

But really they should have made a small "garage" and a ramp instead.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 10 points 2 months ago

you know I was trying to figure out if that was what it was but I was like. no way.

[-] AlteredEgo@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago

Thinking about it, technically that doesn't even need to be that complex with hydraulics, just a sturdy arm and a winch. But it's still kind of wasted, extra weight for no reason compared to putting the bed or storage above a garage.

Anyway really awesome tiny house.

[-] StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Though it makes a neat little deck once the car is relocated. It'd be fantastic in the forest at night.

[-] AlteredEgo@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yeah but the whole roof is premium space. I'd put solar panels over the whole surface. But you could also make a big deck to walk on with maybe a deployable balustrade. Or maybe even some kind of very low roof greenhouse lol. Lots of creative ideas for tiny houses.

[-] whaleross@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Looks like they have a crane up there, but if it breaks you have to find an appropriate height overpass.

No way!!! I saw that same truck a few days ago in Germany. It must be the exact same, because it's pretty recognizable and unique.

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

That truck has a shuttle craft.

[-] daychilde@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

For some reason, your comment put Seagulls in my head (that log had a child!) lol

[-] Zephyr@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 months ago

I want to see the process of getting that car down. I see what I think is a crane arm.

[-] qupada@fedia.io 13 points 2 months ago

Looks like a davit designed for loading a small boat onto a larger boat.

Here, we apparently see the land lubber's version of the same.

[-] Dearth@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

All it needs is a couple bikes hanging from the back of the car and it's my dream vehicle

[-] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I bet they have bikes inside

[-] tangeli@piefed.social 9 points 2 months ago

I hope that's some kind of hardpan sand, not the soft stuff at the beaches I go to. Or that those vehicles are all amphibious. That picture makes me feel very anxious.

[-] just2look@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 months ago

Just looking at how little the semi sunk into the sand, I would guess it is pretty hard. As long as they don't get too crazy I dont think driving back out would be an issue at all.

[-] tangeli@piefed.social 9 points 2 months ago

I drove on a beach once. It was fine. Easy going. Beautiful. Exhilarating. Until, abruptly, the tires sunk in and it wasn't. Once they sink in, even just a little bit, it is extremely difficult to get out. It was one of the stupider things I have ever done. I've never done it again.

It is likely on Rømø, they have big beaches where you can officially drive on. Which is not that common here in northern Europe.

[-] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

It's in Saltum beach. As far as i know its officially a road

what's interesting about it?

it looks like another well-off person cosplaying as a poor as a lifestyle. the semi itself probably cost 200k.

Interesting, but why is it driving on the beach? Doesn't it sink in with that weight?

[-] SmoothOperator@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

There are beaches on the Danish west coast where the sand is plenty compacted, completely fine for driving. At least for passenger cars.

I would be hesitant with a truck, but seems to be going well.

[-] igorette@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Yes. This could be the beach of Rømø There was an oldtimer convention this weekend I think Even military planes are landing and starting there

[-] wake@quokk.au 6 points 2 months ago

I wonder about the weight and how it was built. I'm guessing it doesn't weigh much if they can get away with a single axle trailer.

I'm astonished by the fact that's on sand on a beach...

Nothing is towing that giant thing if it gets stuck.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

New ATS/ETS dlc spotted

[-] fubarx@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago
[-] antianarchist@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 months ago

Of course, a Swiss fucker.

But, to be honest, it looks cool as fuck and is probably super luxurious.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
