Manliness, back in the day.
No gender dysphoria whatsoever.

You have to laugh or you would cry

I just had an amusing discussion with someone who was 100% convinced that in 10 years all vehicles will be electric and diesel will disappear in 10 years.
I asked him how much electric power and batteries would this truck need to operate and how would it recharge those batteries.
He suggested windfarms, solar farms and generators (diesel powered generators I assume??)

This is a truck with 4 trailers known as a roadtrain. It delivers fuel to mine sites and small towns. It hauls 158,000 litres of diesel fuel or 41,740 gallons if you are in a country with medieval measurements. It weighs in at 186.5 tonnes and is 60 metres long (411,162 lbs ~ 197 ft).

Don't even start on actual trains
