@nprofile…t8tf let me put it to you like this.
This: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_XT
... was made as a joke. A little 'look, we made a funny thing' for a trade show. Hurr, durr, put it on a silly little fake hill with some fake asshole cactuses, it'll be fun.
... and they walked out of the trade show with some shit like a thousand presales.
So, then, naturally it was 'FUCK we have to make them now? THEY CARRY NOTHING' (carrying capacity was sweeeet fuck-all at the time, maybe a tonne?)

@nprofile…t8tf *nods* the 'let's get a GIANT pickup truck and raise it and add a bunch of 4wd accessories we never use and call it a 'work' truck for tax purposes' special is very much one of the markers aroundd here.
Because we have roundabouts and they drive right over them, etc.
... but we also have femme versions too. They just have pink stickers on the back like 'SICK BITCH DRIVER' etc.

@nprofile…t8tf from what I read, even what they did was ALMOST like 'nah, bro', but one particular guy who was dead set against it overnight went 'actually, YES'

@nprofile…t8tf *gestures at goiters*
Even when they knew how to fix it, there was resistance to the method.

@nprofile…zqv6 @nprofile…t8tf @nprofile…uv4t Mars Bars (erm. Milky Ways for other people here) did a big 'better from the fridge!' promo-thing years ago.
It didn't go well. Caramel + fridge temps is... unpleasant.
I suspect the whole thing was a ploy to get more shelf space (they were doing things like suction-capping shelfs to the inside of drink fridge doors)

@nprofile…t8tf Strongly concur.
Here's the thing.
Happy to buy from a small company, happy to do the 'local store taking off, let's go there' thing.
But then, they make it fucking WEIRD. Overly familiar because they try too hard, which leads to 'I haven't seen you! IN SO LONG!' pressure type shit, and... I'm not goin' back.
