A flimsy argument for the sake of scooting about in the desert

"All we know is he's NOT the Stig. He's the Stig's balder, space-faring cousin."
Some say his Racing Helmet is filled with Earl Gray, hot, and that he refuses to drive any buggy with 4 lights
Today on The Inner-Gear...
Trek of Hazzard
Picard & Louise
Middle gif: Is it me, or does Dorn look like he’s barely keeping a straight face?
Between this scene and the ridiculous voice modulation they gave Worf, I can't blame him.
The original schematics had a car or truck somewhere if I recall, along with a giant duck. (The technical manual was a blast)
I wish Lower Decks had covered the duck.
It was a Porsche, and there were lots of other tiny jokes on those panels along with it.
Scroll down to the "In-Jokes on displays" section on this page to see them, and how they had to be (usually) covered up when the camera got too close.
Of course Brent Spiner had to wear those safety goggles when they filmed, but I also love the in-universe idea of Data putting on a piece of safety equipment completely unnecessary for himself just to fit in with his friends.
Is that a typo, or is "Here me out" part of the joke?
Nah, just my usual vague grasp of grammar and the English language at large.
So many people complained about the buggy but I never got it. We've seen tons of situations where the shuttles aren't totally viable so it makes sense that they'd have a backup. And humans like to have fun. If Picard never had a reason to bring that out until now, makes sense he'd want to enjoy it the same way any Dad does when they pull out a new tool/toy for the first time.
