Is this retroactive because I really don't want to have to delete my review of the cyber truck where I called it a used toilet paper recepticle on wheels. I admittedly do not have a head trauma history, so I did not actually buy a cyber truck.

But your review was still accurate. I wipe my ass on every cybertruck I see because of it. A++++ highly recommend!

With all the ugly angles that sounds dangerous

I mean, it can be used as a toilet paper receptacle. Just because you didn't buy it, doesn't mean you can't review it. People review and return stuff all the time. I do not see anything wrong here.

It's not actually possible to return one of these cyber trucks due to rules involving sale after purchase.

There is however over 200 Cybertrucks for rent on Turo. I guess all the owners got bored of them already.
