Jeeps are not a go fast vehicle… there’s a thing called death wobble.

Death wobble is truly terrifying. Seriously do not let a new driver behind the wheel of anything with a solid front axle.

My 2001 Landcruiser with over 1,000,000 kms on the clock had a solid front axle and never did anything like a death wobble. For that matter, nor did our ‘96 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Maybe the longer wheelbase helped

Tell that to the people driving the dirt road outside my neighborhood.

You’re understanding how fast that road can be driven by a vehicle made to go fast on dirt roads!

I mean, no, but people do still drive them on highways, so the mildest resemblance of fuel efficiency would be nice.

I’m thinking entirely too hard for a meme about the aerodynamics of a pokemon, but there’s no way that a literal Bulbasaur can beat an actual car, right?

Well to win, the jeep would have to be running, so most would be disqualified before the match even starts. If the ref is feeling nice they can allow up to 3 attempts to start the jeep.

Bulbasaur has curves, jeep is a series of boxes. So very possibly bulbasaur wins.

Bulbasaur even has a sweet spoiler for that extra traction.

Series of boxes built around the same basic shape as a WWII vehicle, only bigger.

I remember when I learned that jeep Windshields fold down not because it’s a cool lifestyle thing, but because it allows you to stack them on top of each other in the holds of liberty ships… didn’t have to worry about roll bars in ww2 I suppose.

It’s not clear if they properly matched the Reynolds numbers and other similarity parameters to properly make this comparison.

to be fair, the jeep is a car, and not a particularly aerodynamic one, and one that can go much much faster than a pokemon ever could conceive of so.

Whoa, that low-pressure butt area can such the poop right out of that monster.
