    When this baby hits 88 miles per hour, it sends you back to apartheid South Africa.

    I don’t understand the market for the Swastikar. You need to love Nazism, believe that global warming is real, and be able to finance a 100K vehicle. That’s a Venn Diagram with an incredibly small center circle.

    The recalls and potential to be burned alive inside also have to be ignored.

      You need to… believe that global warming is real

      No you don’t. There are plenty of chuds who like higher-end electric cars just because they’re extremely fast.

      I think it’s way simpler than that. Has to be, these people are dumb.

      A lot of people worship money, and, well… car made by richest man. That mean car good! Buy car!

      Conditions a and b line up well… no belief in global warming required to buy your favorite billionaire’s shitty tonka truck.

      You also need to be clueless about off-road and towing capabilities. I see an odd similarity to this car as the Hummer brand in the 2000s. It represented some sort of gluttonous American superiority at the time. Whereas the Hummer alluded to a military superiority, the Cybertruck now alludes to a BigTech superiority. It’s all the attempt to buy yourself an identity.

            Absolutely. Just wanted to point out that the H3 exists, and everything after H1 implies nothing more than too much money.

      I didn’t buy my EV for sustainability reasons, I bought it because it was the most cost effective and convenient commuter car for my specific driving profile.

      The sustainability is just a nice bonus for me that I don’t care too much about.

      It’s simple to understand. Just look at the company’s stock value since the CEO outed himself as a Nazi.

  • Makes me glad that Bob Gale is preventing any new Back to the Future movies from being made, 'cause you know that someone in Hollywood would have tried to make a Cybertruck time machine otherwise.

    How about Derploreans? I liked cyber rust though, living in salty winter roads territory.

    Funny how living where trucks are actually useful in the winter has kept the washing tubs to a minimum. Between the two factors I only saw my first one in the wild this month. It was black in a vain effort to look cool lol
