why aren't cars made of compressed straw?

PROS
1- super resistant (they use to build houses)
2- extremely light weight
3- if you hit someone straw is soft
4-good insulation
5-cheap and made in USA
6-surprisingly resistant to fire (and it can be properly treated anyway)
7- it's easy to change pieces
8- you won't even notice scratches or small bumps

CONS
1-probably a normal car is a bit more secure, but surely a straw one isn't less safe than a motorbike
2- impermeabilization of the first layer of straw must be renewed after some years

the amazing power of straw
>>
>>15003789
That's wood.
>>
>>15003789
the straw is acting only as insulation with the wood beams being the core support

also can straw survive a 60 mph crash

>>15003801
The blocks are made with compressed straw
>>
>>15003802
Straw naturally absorbs hits

Plus surely it can't be more dangerous than a motorbike
>>
>>15003806
The blocks aren't doing anything accept insulating. They do nothing for the integrity of the building.

Ok fucking autist so what?

That means it's worthless to build a car out of it, you autist.

>all these butt devasted liberal cucks sperging on straw

I'm with you Op
>>
wtf
>>
>>15003832
I never said that staw cars don't have some sort of frame keeping all the straw in a structure, probably a net

autistic eurocuck go suck some refugee dick
>>
>>15003813
thes the problem you dont want your vehicle to absorb the hit because your inside it

you want it to dispurse the energy away from the colision
normally in the form of all the plastics exploding away from the point of impact as well as the metal unibody crumpling

so you now went from lets build a car out of strew to lets try insulating a car with straw......

dude just drop the straw idea this would work better for planes anyways due to lightness
>>
>>15003851
Why would that be impossible to replicate with straw?

HURR DURR IT'S LE BAITTT XD

I completely agree

>>15003860
Only a clinically retarded cuck would assume that I was talking about a car entirely made with straw

Congrats!

Fuck straw, lets use peanut butter.

It's cheap as all hell and can absorb a lot of impacts. Plus if you crash in the middle of nowhere you will have food you can eat. Unlike straw which isn't even good for burning.

and they say there are no shills on /o/

The ones saying that are shills themselves

>no counter argument
Except peanut butter does everything straw could do, but way better.

because straw doesnt have the same molecular properties as steel it doesnt bend and dispurse outward it just snaps like wood which has been proven to be an inferior material to build cars out of

the future material for cars will be carbon fiber
