There's only one fairly good photo of the top of the truck and it seems they didn't add a Confederate flag.

Duke Boys easily caught by Boss Hogg because a light rain rendered the General E Cybertruck inoperable.

Would love to see a cyber truck do one of those ramp jumps the show was fond of. The landing would be epic.

I am looking forward to seeing this one, specifically, get real fucked up.

We'd probably get to see one of those Looney Toons sequences where a car falls apart until its just the driver's seat, steering wheel, and frame.

Gotta be honest, as someone that really likes orange cars, that orange is very nicely applied and looks slick.

Obvs the rest of it (and super obvs the car itself) looks like trash, but that's no surprise.

This may be the single least ugly Cybertruck in existence.....

Right? If you ignore the dumb-looking decals, at least.

Edit: pretty dang low bar though, tbf.

I'm not partial to orange cars. The exception is 1970s BMW 2002s.

My dad had that car when I was a kid. As the years when on my dad turned out to be a thoughtless asshole. But I still love the car though.

Oof, it's even the perfect shade of orange, the kind that evokes extreme citrus flavor. Crush orange soda levels of orange. Beautiful!

Shame that awesome cars are so often owned by awful people. Should get the exact same one and convert it to fuel cell just to spite him. ;P

I'd love to do that.

It's a nice orange. Good paint for a bad car.

[–] NuraShiny@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago

I absolutely agree, this car looks a lot better with actual paint on it. Almost like shipping it without any was a highly stupid idea.

[–] itappearsthat@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago

Maybe it wouldn't make it align with the ground but not having the decal run parallel to the panel gap makes it look like shit

I hate that this is in my brain now, I could have happily lived my whole life never knowing this existed

I'm always going to remember on some level those wonky-looking numbers that they should have aligned to the bottom bevel rather than the top

Imagining someone trying to jump in through the window (like Tha Dukes) and the car deciding to start closing the window automatically, catching them and failing to stop when it meets resistance.

First person cut in half by the cybertruck gets a limited edition cyberwheelchair.

When they make another Dukes of Hazzard reboot after the 2005 reboot, the Lee will be this.

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 7 months ago

That voids the warranty.
