    I think pinewood derby cars generally look wayyy better.

    Probably an unpopular opinion, but I respect Tesla for actually building something that looks like the concept. Modern vehicles all look too similar.

      There’s usually a good reason that concept cars aren’t mass produced as-is. In the cybertruck’s case, it’s many reasons, which were all ignored.

        Just for novelty’s sake, I really appreciate them following through it (kinda, since they adjusted the cybertruck dimensions a little bit)

          It’s the new gold standard for douchebag detection, so I guess I appreciate that about the design.

      i get what you’re saying generally, but specifically that’s like saying deodorants smell too similar so i commend gary for shitting his pants and walking around with a distinct odor.

    Why did the artist make it so small?

      So… It’s the size of a truck, but has that downslopped top that won’t allow you to put any cargo into it?

      Is there any way to make stuff fit in it? Or it can only be used as a sedan?

        I think the bed cover retracts.

          Ok, I’ve looked and I have to say… that one is kinda cool.

          Would I want it? No, I wouldn’t. Is it cool enough to make up for the rest of the design? No way. But it’s cool.

      So on top of everything else, it’s way too big? What a profoundly stupid vehicle 🤦

        Way too big, still has next to no battery capacity. Can’t explain that.
