    I finally saw a cybertruck irl the other day and I still maintain that they look cool and I wish they weren’t fired death traps because I still kinda want one.

      I don’t actually hate the look either. The problem is the size. The production CT is massive compared to the one we saw on stage during the infamous demo.

      I maintain that the one they showed off when they announced the truck looked kinda cool. But as we started seeing them in real life, the novelty of them looking different wore off and the reality that they’re somehow bloated and sharp edged at the same time set in and made me realize how poorly proportioned they are! Also, the irony of buying a bulletproof and “zombie proof” truck that can’t tow or the frame snaps and you need to wrap it so it doesn’t rust is incredible. Not to mention Elon Musk spearheaded it.

      very well proportioned "truck"

        That plus the firey death trap makes it a non starter but I still think they look cool and mostly just want an electric car lol
