“Days after launch, you’re sitting at a red light. The novelty is gone and you’re not any happier. Maybe it’s your imagination, but the gaps in the door look off. You think you saw a car full of teens laughing at you earlier. You are now $100,000 in debt for a meme, and you feel … nothing.”

    Stainless steel body is cool and all. But just plain metal sheets, no coats, no paint, untreated? What the hell are they thinking? Stainless steel are not magic, they have limitations.

    I’m all for making fun of the Cybertruck, and anything from Felon Husk really, but I’d bet real money that thumbnail photo was doctored. I tried searching around for verified photos of rust but nothing substantial came up from a reputable source. Anyway, just wanted to point this out.

    But dam near all car headlights blind other drivers now. Its to the point that I have to keep sun glasses in my car when I drive at night. As someone with photophobia I use to like my night drives for work but now it’s just as bad as driving during the day.

      Saw this today. Some kind of front center ultrahighbeam blots out the plate as you can see and was way more blinding than it seems in the photo.

        There are legitimate uses for these kind of lights on work vehicles, but they should never be used on public roads. Using these in a city is pure, 100% distilled assholery.

          It’s not just that light. Those trucks are so high up the regular lights are right at eye level and they are already too god dam bright.

        But that’s because the driver is a selfish asshole that has to show his wealth as much as possible, not because the factory designed the luxury vehicle disguised as a truck like that

          I actually think these kinds of lights are to stop speed cameras from being able to read your plate.

        So that beam in the pic is not factory (dude is still a douche of course). But the point in the video is that the cybertruck is like that straight from Tesla, which is extra unacceptable.
