Ten reasons why Optimus Prime is mad about the Dodge Nitro:
1-He regrets that when he came to Earth, He scanned a truck instead of the Dodge Nitro. Now he wakes up every day crying because he lost the chance to be a Dodge Nitro in disguise.
2-When Optimus took pictures to show his friends in Cybertron, his friends could not help but stare at the pictures of the Nitro instead of himself. They admired the beautiful all around design the Nitro had that Optimus couldn’t even compare with.
3-Optumus was dumped by his girlfriend at the time for Dodge Nitro. When Optimus said “It’s what is in the inside that counts!” She replied “I know, that is why I’m leaving you.” Optimus was quiet because he knew the Nitro’s interior was far superior to his. With Dodge Nitro’s power six way seat and YES Essentials - just to name a few - Optimus cried a single drop of oil from his eye.
4-Hot Shot invited Dodge Nitro camping but not Optimus. Optimus was mad that he wasn’t invited because he and Hot Shot went way back but Dodge Nitro barely knew Hot Shot. When ask why he wasn’t invited, Hot shot said “We needed some one to store the camping gear.” Optimus said “but I’m a truck, I can carry everything!” But Hot Shot said “You would just destroy all the trees and slow us down. Nitro on the other hand is a compact vehicle, yet he has a lot of loading space with a 909L (32.1 cu. ft) of cargo capacity and 2141L (75.6 cu. ft) with the seats down!”
5-Optimus played ‘tug of war’ with Dodge Nitro. He wanted to impress all the lady cars. He knew he had this and was so confident because Dodge Nitro was so small. But when the time came, Optimus was surprised. Dodge Nitro could hold his own! With Dodge Nitro’s incredible 2268 kg (5000 lb) of available towing capacity and the element of surprise, Optimus was defeated and went home alone.
6-Optimus and Dodge Nitro were in gym class together back in high school. On evaluation day, Optimus came in 2nd while Dodge nitro was Number one. With his standard 4.0L SOHC V6*, he was pumping out 255 hp and 265 lb-ft of torque which made him unstoppable.
7-It’s a fact that Dodge Nitro is a better father figure then Optimus. With Dodge Nitro’s advanced multistage driver and front passenger air bags, standard side-curtain air bags, and Electronic Stability Program )with Electronic Roll Mitigation, Hot Shot can trust Baby Hot Shot with Dodge Nitro, unlike Optimus who is too ruff.
8-Optimus used to be the best leader of the Autobots until Dodge Nitro came around. With Dodge Nitro, everyone was confident they were following the right person. With his GPS navigation media radio with 6.5-inch integrated touch screen guides Dodge Nitro never got lost.
9-Optimus used to be the life of the party until Dodge Nitro came and stole the show. Nitro was able to keep everyone captivated with his DVD Video Entertainment System. And with his 20 gigabytes of hard drive space, Dodge Nitro could find common interest with just about everyone at the dinner socials while Optimus was too shy.
10-The final reason is that Optimus knows he can’t compare. Don’t tell, but originally, Dodge Nitro was cast in the movie Transformers as the leader. It was not until Dodge Nitro turned down the role that Optimus got it. The studio wanted to cancel production but Dodge Nitro was so kind and vouched for Optimus. After that Even Optimus couldn’t hate on Dodge Nitro.
