Everyone gets lost talking about this thing. Purchasing and driving a poorly-engineered or aesthetically-questionable vehicle isn’t the primary problem. That’s not unique. There have always been shitty vehicles.
People who drive these gave $80,000 to empower the Nazis. The fact that they’re shitboxes just underscores that conspicuous consumption and the support and affiliation for and with Fascism are the entire point.
Every cybertruck I see where I live has some company logo or wrap on it. It’s great advertising – it lets me know never to hire that company for anything.
The most hilarious one is for a company that does waterproofing. Like yes, I’m going to hire a waterproofing company that just spent $100K on a vehicle that can’t go through a car wash.
That’s gonna look even worse when it starts rusting.
This is why most cybertruck drivers believe divorce and restraining orders should be illegal, and why it should be legal to hit their wives.

Such a good movieee
Bruce Willis, Steve Carrell, William Shatner, Nick Nolte Avril Lavigne, Eugene Levy , Omid Djalili.
OTH really was just some random animated movie that was stacked with huge talents doing voiceover.
A lot of animated movies have super star studded voiceovers. The pay is pretty good for these actors and they don’t have to spend hours on makeup and wardrobe. They show up in regular clothes, talk into a mic for a couple hours then go home and cash a fat check. Vastly easier than actual acting roles.
and probably more fun
Damn, thank you. We’re snowed in AF here in Jersey (New), and I needed a good family flick, the kids are shit at helping me pick.
I must mention, the ps2 / pc game that came with this movie was very liminal and surreal, especially the house level at night. This is the best screenshot i found. It doesn’t feel like a real house, but a set. I can’t explain, i think you might have to play this youself.
PS2 Toy Story game was also pretty amazing

This movie was surprisingly good, I took a woman to see it in the theater when it came out, and fifteen years later we were still quoting it at each other.
Ya know I’m aware they are basically the inbred cousin of the old Avalanche trucks that is to say an SUV with a slight bed but I feel like a single cab cyber truck would look better and be more functional.
Sadly this doesn’t hold true for red states. I’ve seen multiple people putting their children at risk by ferrying them around in a vehicle that makes the Ford Pinto look safe.
Leaving all the downsides of the Cybertruck aside - the fact that it’s built by a fucking nazi, the fact that it can turn in to a death trap, the fact that the build quality is shit…
Who the fuck buys a hideous, hideous car like this…? Who suffers from such poor taste that they think a piece of junk that looks like it was designed by a five-year-old is something worth spending money on, let alone so much?
I don’t know, I think it looks cool.
Completely impractical, shitty car built by a Nazi that nobody should even consider buying. But in terms of looks alone I like it. I’d gladly drive one in, e.g. a video game (if the look wasn’t associated with Musk, unfortunately it’s tainted now), or watch a movie where it’s the weird vehicle the superhero uses.
Why would you build a car looking like that in the real world I have no idea, but it looks cool.
It looks cool? Well, we have completely different ideas of cool looks, apparently… I think this car looks cool.
I think this car looks cool
No fair. We all know that is the coolest car ever.
Nice if you are a 68 year old retired real estate salesman.
It’s obviously subjective. To me this car just looks like a generic expensive car. Looks the same like every other car.
I hate the cybertruck, but I think it’s chassis modularity is really neat, they just cut a predefined line in the chassis, then drop in a replacement section, although I’m not sure if I should trust the glue they use to fuse them, even after seeing how it happens in JerryRigEverything’s video on it.
Cybercucks buy these shitty vehicles for the same reason they do anything - to own the libs. That’s the only point of it.
I’m not defending the Cybertruck, but I used to think the same thing about the Honda Insight. It looks much nicer now, but that was after a huge toning down of toddler design.

That may be true, but in case of the Cybertruck, I doubt that there is any lipstick you can put on that particular pig that can somehow turn it into something I would even remotely consider buying.
I mean, I’m European, I can’t buy the fricking thing anyway, but I am also rather glad that I’m spared from ever seeing it in the wild.
Let’s not pretend that this is a unique issue with cybertrucks.
Every day at work it’s nothing but single dudes riding their pavement princesses. My Model 3 has seen more family time and off-roading time than these things.
I don’t see them down here either as they fail basic standards for street legality
Maybe I can get one cheap/busted to pull the drivetrain out for a project car…
This weekend I saw a “wrapped” yellow ClusterTruck parked at a local funeral home. I’ve never wanted to be THAT disrespectful before.
I never thought about this before, but it’s true in my experience.
What starts with c- and ends in -uck?
