    Man I really feel like I am part of the like 1% of people who think the cyber truck looks super cool. I understand it’s a POS but it just looks so cool to me. I would put bright yellow EL Wire on all the angles to make it more cyberpunk looking. God I wish this car and the company didn’t suck.

        I’m going to get my deposit back for the CT, I still think it’s cool but I don’t think it will ever be sold in Europe and Musk has just ruined the reputation of Tesla. I’m also looking for a home battery and although the Powerwall 3 looks great, I’m going to try and find an alternative, just because of Elon.

      My personal take on the cybertruck is that it actually looks rad as hell but Elon is a psycho and it’s a terrible vehicle.

      I’ve heard so many horror stories about getting tesla repaired.

      I honestly really don’t get it. My first thought at normal SUVs is already “wow, that is so ugly, why would anyone buy that?” and the cybertruck is to SUVs like those are to regular cars.

        I 100% agree. I hate SUVs and I honestly don’t understand why they’re so popular. I also think trucks look dumb and I hate driving and riding in them. A cybertruck is a bad mix of both SUVs and trucks.

        And I’m tall, so I should like SUVs and trucks from what I understand, but I honestly prefer small sedans and sports cars. We have a sedan and a minivan (have 3 kids), and my wife and I both want to downsize the minivan because we just don’t like sitting up that high.

      I like that it’s different and not just “Super Generic Truck 2024 Edition”. Remember the Plymouth Prowlar? That thing was wacky looking and I think it only came in purple. I’m paraphrasing the commercial but it went something like: “It’s not for everyone, is it?” “That’s kinda the point.” I LIKE that.

      When you try to make something for everyone, you end up making it for no one.

      But damn if the Cyber truck isn’t a huge piece of shit made by a horrible company which ruins any positivity it might otherwise have.

      Yep. I’d never buy it since that would support Tesla, and I would never buy because it has lots of issues. But I love how it looks. I wish some other company borrows the style and makes an actually good car with it.

    If that’s really on there, that’s fucking funny and I’m glad that person can laugh at themselves.
