take a drive by the Tesla service center in Pensacola… you can see a bunch of them parked there.
Hah! First one I was over near Holt off I-10. Honestly, it seemed pretty cool, guy had some low-key black graphics on it. But after seeing the fail-train these things are, they can’t look cool to me anymore.
Also, I’m practical with my purchases, or try to be. I have a beat up 2004 F150 that actually runs, can get wet and hauls 5x what a Cybertruck can. I get buying stuff for the cool factor, but what’s the use case here?!
Then for one day for no reason at all the cyber trucks rose up and…
I’ve only seen one and was shocked at how much worse it looks in person.
I see them a lot and am still shocked at how bad they look.
It was always, shall we say, polarizing, but the production version managed to nudge every iffy design note in the concept car in the wrong direction. It ends up looking less Mass Effect and more like a Pontiac Aztek in DeLorean cosplay.
Wow, even worse than the pictures that are already super ugly? Yeesh.
I was surprised!!
I think the design is neat, though wildly impractical. And “impractical” doesn’t begin to cover the engineering and manufacturing flaws. Impractical, fragile and falling apart day-1? Sign me up!
Figure they’ll be like Deloreans some day, a few monied collectors keeping them going for nostalgia.
Never had any love for the man, never cared, but if you haven’t seen this video, heysus christos, this tells you all you need to know about Musk in a few short seconds.
I’ve seen two in person (possible, same one just twice). It was bigger and dumber looking than I thought it would be. The style contrasts with literally everything around it. In every possible way, it looks unfinished in a way no video or photo ever conveyed.
Have you seen the windshield wiper being used yet? It looks like something out of a crappy ‘art’ film.
I have not… now I gotta find a video of this
I kinda like the look of the headlight strip or whatever. That’s about it though.
I hate the taillights, they just look out of place makes them hard to spot somehow. theres this black one that I see pretty often on my commute and that thing seems like a safety violation on a dark morning
Was it left outside in the rain?
I think they tried to drive it through a car wash and it started on fire.
There is the problem, you’re not supposed to drive them
Nah, it was just a late summer day with middling humidity
That looks badass! They lowered it! Can it jump?
They drove it over the curb, through a fence, across a golf course, and into the water hazard by the 12th hole.
Nah I’m just kidding. It just hit a speed bump at 15 mph in a light rain.
I’ve seen them maybe 10 times so far, though some of them were probably the same one again since it was during my commute.
That’s about what they look like from the factory!
What a pile of garbage.
And unlike the Millennium Falcon, the garbage will not do.
It was once a flaming pile of garbage!
a dumpster fire
Before that a rolling pile of garbage.
She’s worth .5 of the original price. At most.
NGL, that looks rad.
The aftermath of a dumpster fire
It’s Cyber Fucked. 🤔
It came off the assembly line cyber fucked
My son LOVES Cybertrucks.
He’s 7 though, so I imagine not the market Musk was targeting
Musk drew up the original sketch for the cyber truck on his notebook in class when he was 7.
You need to get him on Back to the Future. The OG Delorean is way superior.
Way ahead of you there, he loves himself a Delorian
Reminds me, it’s my first day back teaching classes and the usual cyber truck I see on the commute is gone. Students and I used to make fun of it before class, I wonder what happened to it…
It probably got wet.
😂😂😂
you pick up your students?
Ah no, there’s just two roads people take to get to class because it’s in a weird position. The cyber truck was on one of those paths.
Tow driver: Damn this thing looks like it went through the Iraq war.
Owner: I’ve had it for three weeks.
