Poopertruck

(Noun) A term for the Toyota Hilux, specifically the seventh and eighth generations, which became infamous for their lackluster design and questionable aesthetic choices. Known for being a workhorse of a ute, the Poopertruck excels in durability and reliability but suffers from the exterior with its Ugly, in your face Grill and interior crappy plastics that can make you question whether its engineers ever looked at other vehicles for inspiration. Its bland, utilitarian look is often described as a box on wheels. While loved for its off-road capabilities, the Poopertruck is often ridiculed by car enthusiasts for its unattractive, cheap-feeling build Quality.

"I can’t believe you bought an 8th-gen Hilux. man, that thing’s interior is CRAPPY. I thought you had better taste. The Isuzu D-Max is way better than that Rocco-Poopertruck!

“The Poopertruck may be a legend on the job site due to its reliability, but don’t expect to impress anyone with that interior that screams ‘budget special”. 🤮

“Y’all could say ass about the tesla cybertruck due to its design. yes its WEIRD and AWKWARD and it’s ELECTRIC but it still a million times better than a shitty Thailand made nonsense called the Toyota Hilux-Poopertruck. The cybertruck has a better interior quality and it has the 4 wheel Turning system making it easier to maneuver. High technology, And it has a solid Exterior body making it almost impossibly indestructible in a zombie apocalypse. Poopertruck doesn’t have that features.”

Caboose

1. A small railroad car that was traditionally attached to the rear end of freight trains. It served several important functions, primarily providing a workspace and living quarters for the train crew, including the conductor and brakemen. a caboose typically featured windows for crew members to observe the train's condition and surroundings. It also had a small kitchen, tiny office and beds. In addition, the caboose played a crucial role in train safety: the crew would use it to monitor the train's integrity (and signal to the engineer if something was wrong. With the advent of more advanced technology, such as electronic monitoring systems and end-of-train devices, the use of cabooses has largely disappeared in modern railroading.

2. An informal and humorous slang for the buttocks or rear end of a person.

1. There is this place in Strasburg, Pennsylvania called “the red caboose motel at paradise station” where you can sleep in cabooses that were used in railroads back then. My friend sleep at a blue Conrail caboose. But I really wanted to sleep in a Penn Central caboose but they didn’t have one so I sleep in a Baltimore and Ohio railroad (B&O) caboose instead.

2. “That sexy thick black girl was shaking her caboose and it make me flirt”

Avelia Liberty

Is a new passenger trainset built for the North American market by French manufacturer Alstom. It is related to its French sister variant the SNCF TGV M. Amtrak order these sexy trainsets to replace the aging and pretty much bland first gen Acela trainsets. The new fleet will have train sets that each have 378 seats and 8 wheelchair locations for a total capacity of 386 passengers, allowing for 25% greater passenger capacity per train set. They have an active tilt system, dubbed Tiltronix that will allow higher speeds on curved portions of the corridor track at a maximum tilt angle of 6.3°. Their maximum speed is about 160-200MPH (depending on track structure and tilting). They are expected to enter their first service in late 2024

I saw that Amtrak is testing the new Avelia Liberty at metropark on the express tracks, because they look so goddamn cool that my Jamaican girl’s Pum Pum became so tight seeing them.

YOOOO!!!! LOOK AT THOSE BRAND NEW AVELIA LIBERTY TRAINSETS AT 30TH STREET YARD, THEY LOOK SO FRESH AS HELL, I CAN WAIT FOR THEM TO ENTER SERVICE, THOSE OLD ACELAS SUCKS ASS!!!!!
