Didn’t you hear, Trump was changing his stance on EVs because Musk bought him, I mean, donated to him.

There are one or two in my home town, I spotted one coming out of a country club. Not just any country club but one of the most expensive ones in the region. So, no doubt he bought it for truck things. Just average every day truck things, definitely not a trophy.

Fucking hell it's uglier in person.

The wheel placement is off compared to other trucks. Because the battery pack runs between the wheels the wheels are pushed out to the very edges of the body. However traditionally trucks, especially on the rear axel, have a bit of hang over due to the axel placement for maximum payload.

I've seen one in person, it was in motion, I recognized the silhouette. The wheels struck me as weirdly big. looked like a toy that wasn't quite proportioned right.

I saw someone post a picture of it next to some generic "crossover," you know how life forms all eventually turn into crabs? They call it carcinification? Well cars apparently crossoverify. So it's a Cyber Truck sitting next to a Lexus fuk60 or whatever and someone says "PS1 graphics vs PS5 graphics" and it's true.

At least the wrap protects the metal from bird poop, although it attracts all other kinds of poop while I'm in the neighborhood.

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

The whole thing is a shit show.

If you intend to drive it, you 100% have to put a wrap on it, or detail it everytime you get home to avoid permenant damage.

And there's some weird clause in the contract where you can't sell it for a year.

Whenever that's up, we're going to see a shit ton of these things go up for dirt cheap.

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

The poop sits on the inside of that one.

Wasn't the consensus on fortnite that anytime a cyber truck rolled up, all previous engagements were put on hold until the elonaldmobile was a smoking crater?

Can we translate over to real life? Please?

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Based on the number of recalls for those things, One can only surmise that the build quality is terrible. Basically what I'm saying is just give it a minute I'm pretty sure it'll self-destruct. Or maybe a fog will roll in and the whole thing will just rust over, I don't know.

I mean if this gets conservatives into EVs, at least SOME good will come out of this ugly, dysfunctional heap of metal.

Next we need someone to convince them that cars in general are evil and it's much better for their freedom to use public transport

Put "save America" at the top, add a "from", and then the logo actually makes sense.

The cybertruck is a weird looking car with issues but some people make it their life mission to talk trash about it every chance they get

If they didn't want me to talk trash about it, they shouldn't have designed it to look like a dumpster

Cybertrucks are useful for the exact same purpose. Holding trash.

Finally, a worthy test for the "thermonuclear-proof" windows: create an indent/hole with a steel ball or something, insert Molotov cocktail and watch.

Everything about this car is dumb beginning with Elon the "engineer" designing this in a CAD program high on ambien or whatever he takes. To the hopefully sober decision to manufacture the car.

I could swear he hit some button that reduces polygon count and thought it looks cool. It must have been something like that.
