Country

[Verse]

I was rollin' down the highway, just a man and his machine
Thought I'd found forever in that chrome and gasoline
But one dark night she left me, without a single word
Now I'm sittin' here wonderin' how it all got so absurd

[Chorus]

My self-drivin' truck, she up and drove away
Left me in the dust, like a shadow in the gray
She took the open road, left my heart behind
My self-drivin' truck, she's got a mind of her own kind

[Verse 2]

We'd travel through the sunsets, where the sky kissed the land
A man and his machine, thought we'd always make a stand
But now the cab is empty, her seat is cold and bare
I never thought I'd lose her, thought she'd always be there

[Chorus]

My self-drivin' truck, she up and drove away
Left me in the dust, like a shadow in the gray
She took the open road, left my heart behind
My self-drivin' truck, she's got a mind of her own kind

[Bridge]

I see her tail lights fading, like a dream that's out of reach
No more late-night conversations, just the silence I beseech
Guess I took for granted, she'd always tow the line
Now I'm chasin' memories down this broken dotted line

[Chorus]

My self-drivin' truck, she up and drove away
Left me in the dust, like a shadow in the gray
She took the open road, left my heart behind
My self-drivin' truck, she's got a mind of her own kind

[Outro]

Now I'm just a lonely trucker, with no rig to call my own
A wanderer on these highways, forevermore alone
My self-drivin' truck, she's out there somewhere free
While I'm left here rememberin' what we used to be

How appropriate.

I took part in that. I guess, it's my legacy now. 😁

Thank you!!

This reminds me of a stupid ass joke. I know it's cringe but here it goes.....

You know when you play metal or rock records backwards they say you will hear satanic messages or whatever BS panic was going on with KISS and all that?

Well guess you what you get when you play country music records backwards?

You get your dog back, you get your truck back, you get your girlfriend back.

(Verse 1) Well, I was ridin' the range, just me and my truck, Through the dust and the tumbleweeds, out of pure luck. She was shiny and new, with a mind of her own, My trusty old partner, on the wide open road.

(Chorus) But my self-driving truck, she's got a heart of steel, Left me in the dust, for another man's wheel. She don't need no cowboy, to tell her what to do, My self-driving truck, found herself someone new.

(Verse 2) We'd roamed through the deserts, and over the plains, Through the storms and the sunshine, the joy and the pain. But she up and left me, without a goodbye, Now I'm just a lone cowboy, under the big sky.

(Chorus) Oh, my self-driving truck, she's got a heart of steel, Left me in the dust, for another man's wheel. She don't need no cowboy, to tell her what to do, My self-driving truck, found herself someone new.

(Bridge) I guess I never thought, that she'd leave me this way, With a mind of her own, she chose her own way. Now I'm stuck here alone, with my old boots and hat, Just a cowboy in the sunset, where the memories sat.

(Chorus) Yeah, my self-driving truck, she's got a heart of steel, Left me in the dust, for another man's wheel. She don't need no cowboy, to tell her what to do, My self-driving truck, found herself someone new.

(Outro) So here's to the highways, and the roads that we roam, To the self-driving trucks, that find their own home. I'll keep riding solo, through the wind and the rain, Just a cowboy without his truck, but I'll never complain.

I hope I remember this moment in [10-50 years] when this song becomes a reality.

Future me: you expected this eventuality would come in your lifetime, but you’re still weirded out at the thought. Sounds too sci-fi to ever be considered normal.

ROFL, Sad and hilarious; I can't wait for a future where this song becomes the new bop.

[–] StaySquared 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Supposedly with Teslas, if you miss payments on your vehicles, it can self drive back to the dealership. But I don't know this as fact.

Quick search on Youtube - Apparently Ford is on it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I own 2 Teslas with FSD in both and there's no such thing as missing a payment and the car driving back to the service center. Maybe in the future but currently it's not a thing and hopefully never is.
