Hey, look on the bright side: Republicans are switching to electric cars.

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

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 3 months 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.

The poop sits on the inside of that one.

I love when assholes let you know who they are. And this guy really wanted you to know he was an asshole squared! We should lure him into a car wash.

This Musk wouldn't have stood for this. What happened? (Spoiler Alert: Money and/or Power)

Edit: my dumb ass forgot the photo. Probably because it is permanently deleted from the internet forever

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 3 months 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

Meh, close enough. :-P

They literally all look like this to me.

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (3 children)

I don't get the hate that this generally gets, but this particular one could use a molotov cocktail or 3 thrown its way...

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

[–] Thatuserguy@lemmy.world 21 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Dude, that's not cool.

Dumpsters are useful.

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

Lol holy shit

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

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

As the strangest plus side ever.. At least wrapping the cybertruck is extremely easy.

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.

Does the number of stars represent the size of police force that should be chasing Old Man Don?

Whoever owns this truck is a hero because they’re creating so much joy and laughter in the world thru this hilarious combo

Why's it already look faded out, though?

They're just putting on the outside the same sentiment that's inside of every cybertruck
