…they don’t have roads?

I was puzzled by the “off-road trim”, because cavemen don’t have roads. Then I recalled “Dip in Road”. OK, fine. Why would the triangular wheel cause political arguments? It’s not pink. Is it simply “That other political party is so stupid that they promote triangular wheels! Haw haw!”?
I would venture to guess that it’s a reference to Tesla’s unusual designs.

Now I can’t recall, was it here at CIDU that we recently had a discussion of how a square wheel can roll (without bumping) over a surface with inverted catenary curves? Here’s a link to one account of that: https://momath.org/sqwt/ . And the triangular wheel in the cartoon may be some kind of mental association to that square-wheel deal!

Nothing obvious to me, but this is BC, so is the triangle the Father, Son and Holy Spirit? Does it represent the three branches of the US government?

It’s clearly meant to represent the cybertruck

I think @Andrew Millar is right. The triangular wheel is maybe the Cybertruck – angular, pointy, ugly in a streamlined sea.
@Mitch4: Yes, I remember that catenary curved floor thread here.

The Christian thing was Johnny Hart. Mason Mastroianni is not an evangelical. He does holiday strips as a tribute to his late grandfather but otherwise does not insert religious themes.
