    When the cybertrunk was first announced I kinda liked it. I’m utilitarian and don’t care what I drive looks like. The explanation I heard for the looks was because it was supposed to be really cheap to manufacture. So, a cheap ass EV pickup sounded pretty cool to me. Unfortunately, it’s not going to be cheap :(

    There’s an Easter egg in Satisfactory (3d base building/logistics video game) where you can craft a “Cyber Wagon”, which looks exactly like a Cybertruck but with square wheels, and has the highest fuel consumption rate of any vehicle aside from the personal jetpack. It also handles like absolute shit on account of the square wheels.

    These cars a made for the immanent apocalypse and you will see who has the last laugh.

    You can probably attach chainsaws and shit to it but you need an app to open it (the app won’t work after the apocalypse)

    i saw one IRL today for the first time. was walking past the dealership in Chicago and they had one on display

    there’s a Rolls Royce and Maserati dealer a few block away. what i thought at the time is that these are toys for the rich to show off, publicity for the South African, and nothing more
