God damn that is ugly
It's not 80's enough to have a cool cyberpunk aesthetic, but if they leaned in to that they could have made something that looked really cool to me and the 12 of us that like that look.
But then the clean interior would immediately lose us. Gotta have a bunch of crap, buttons and nobs and stuff all over the interior. With no less than 4 screens giving you information at any given time.
Work with me here. Picture something like this as the general aesthetic of the car.
CRTs, every one of them. With those old curly phone-cord looking cables coming out the side.
Like if the hunchback of Notre Dame fucked a DeLorean.
From this angle (no pun intended) it looks like the nose fell off.
This is the car that a sixth grader draws in his notebook between a Cool S and a barbarian sword.
That S looks way cooler than this car, though.
I'd drive the fuck out of that S.
I'd have ex with that S
Elon told you that this car will win any argument with another car. If a car full of teen showed you disrespect you should track them and ram them at high speed with your powerful torque. See their crummy car be flattened by your invincible steel battleship. You are the elite, the king of the road, don't you dare forget it or everything falls apart.
To be fair, the thing is still probably going to fall apart anyway if past Tesla weld quality is any indication.
There's an Easter egg in Satisfactory (3d base building/logistics video game) where you can craft a "Cyber Wagon", which looks exactly like a Cybertruck but with square wheels, and has the highest fuel consumption rate of any vehicle aside from the personal jetpack. It also handles like absolute shit on account of the square wheels.
But you can actually carry cargo in it. So it's still better than the real one.
And the window is broken!
When i look at it, i start thinking I am a great designer!
While in fact, i am a backend developer
His back end is where Musk gets his ideas
The people who buy this won't be in debt. It will be their new iwatch for a year, maybe two, then resold at half its price because half the touch buttons or little motors for the bed cover stops working.
I really liked the review by Marcus, what happens when the door ices over, will that push open solenoid actually be able to open the door?
When the cybertrunk was first announced I kinda liked it. I'm utilitarian and don't care what I drive looks like. The explanation I heard for the looks was because it was supposed to be really cheap to manufacture. So, a cheap ass EV pickup sounded pretty cool to me. Unfortunately, it's not going to be cheap :(
I wish they would make like generic vehicles. Like, basic shit. Give me that nokia brick vehicle that I can drive forever and is dead simple to work on.
The unibody is neither cheap nor easy to manufacture, and repairs are going to be a nightmare. The explanation is basically “Elron thought it looked cool”.
It looks as if they missed the stop line at a red light and can't see out of the rear window to back up safely.
Where I live you could buy a very decent RV for the equivalent of $100k. Hell even the $60k variant gets you quite a bit.
I'd much rather have that and be able to work "from home" from the south of Spain rather than drive a geometric shape.
It's been said before, and it's the kind of comment that essentially implies this community shouldn't exist, but it's extremely ironic for a community called "enough xyz spam" to essentially spam everyone's feeds with posts about xyz. Imma go ahead and block this community, don't take it personally peeps, I just actually have had enough of musk spam.
Another person who didn't read the community description that's right over there to the right.
These cars a made for the immanent apocalypse and you will see who has the last laugh.
You can probably attach chainsaws and shit to it but you need an app to open it (the app won't work after the apocalypse)
Everyone is talking about electricity going down but the real problem will be the Tesla DRM servers going down.
I will def. have the last laugh: with no electricity (because remember, apocalypse), owners will starve or suffocate as they can't even open their doors DAYS before i die of radiation induced cancer, laughing
Electricity is easier to source than fossil fuels; solar panels, wind power, you could even burn wood and use a steam turbine to make it
Still convinced Elon made this for shits and giggles to see if he could make someone buy it.
i saw one IRL today for the first time. was walking past the dealership in Chicago and they had one on display
there's a Rolls Royce and Maserati dealer a few block away. what i thought at the time is that these are toys for the rich to show off, publicity for the South African, and nothing more
I don't care how many bumper stickers you put on it to hide the fact, this abomination is a scarlet letter announcing what you really are.
I've never seen the cyber truck from behind. But is it just me or does it look like the cyber truck not have a bead. Is there just like a super stylish tano or is there seriously not a bead on the cyber truck.
It’s the new Pontiac Aztek.
Ok look here me out. 100k for cybertruck is absolutely insane. 100k for a meme is worth it
You’re gonna love NFTs.
I love them so much that I right click and save them all. I have 437 NFTs and I never spent a single penny.
