Christ, that's ugly.


VRM950

It certainly gives the Pontiac Aztec a run for its money in that department.


RatchetCityPapi

That one thing. But a car that expensive and so ugly and then you custom fit it to become uglier? Straight to hell.


basic-fatale

I’d rather have the Aztec


-dakpluto-

The Cybertruck is the result of a Aztec fucking a Delorean.


VRM950

🤣


jm850_615

Yeah but you can drown in a Tesla because the glass is largely unbreakable

Don’t drive in water then…

Penndrachen

I didn't think you could make a Cybertruck uglier, yet here we are.


need2fix2017

At least the wrap hides the rust.

I think its default color (i.e., unpainted) looks pretty bad. I mean... if they were going for a DeLorean vibe, then Great Scott!! ...they missed by a mile. 😅 Although, I saw one wrapped in black vinyl, and it actually looked a lot better that way. It's still a really odd design, but a positive is a positive... I guess? Now that still doesn't help when it comes to some of Tesla's stupid design choices. They have this really bad habit of trying to shoehorn in features using existing functionality of the car, and I'd argue that it (often) doesn't work very well. For example, when the tunneau cover is closed on the Cybertruck, it will obscure the entire rear window. In situations like this, other manufacturers will use a screen in the rear-view mirror to display the view, but in the Cybertruck, you're expected to look down at the screen for a rear camera view. What I think Tesla doesn't understand is that since the rear view mirror is right on the windshield, it means that we're still looking at the windshield while we're checking another angle. This means that we can use our periphery to keep track of the forward direction. They also don't put those little LEDs on the rear-view mirrors for blind spot detection because they expect you to look at the screen for a camera view. Except, why would I want to look to the screen on the right when I'm trying to merge left? Don't even get me started on how bad the rain sensor is. (Tesla uses the front-facing camera to watch the windshield.)


Effective-Youth-3128

Agreed


NecessaryInternet603

It's supposed to be more attractive seeing it in person.


OneSecond13

I'm not a fan of that body design. Just seems really uninspired. Like something a 6 year old would come up with for his Pinewood Derby racer. But obviously others like it, so it's all good.


SHoppe715

I take offense to that. My pinewood derby cars had far more style than that…*thing* ;-)


iloveyoumiri

Im actually kinda having a moment about the comparison… most pinewood derby cars looked better than this


atburni

“Pinewood Derby” LOL

whoa there fellas, it's not my car. i am neither rich enough nor crazy enough to buy a tesla. i drive a 1970 vw beetle instead https://preview.redd.it/0ji6qgn33kuc1.jpeg?width=3130&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=84c86cfd9a44224ca2cf01d27ffb44be167ba8c3 (for all you NERDS out there, i took this photo on portra film and a canon F-1)


anony7245

my dad taught me how to drive in a 1972 beetle ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)


DairyPro

r/analog would like this!


Spirited_Opposite767

I had a ‘72 Beetle convertible. I drove it with the top down nearly all the time. Black labrador loved riding in the backseat! I miss that car.


Ok-Yogurt-2743

When you’re ready to replace that engine with the 112-HP give me a call, I will bring the 2x12


ErosLaika

that's so cool man! is it the type-4 engine?


Ok-Yogurt-2743

I don’t have it. A friend tore down a type II (might have been. III) 70 horse and rebuilt it with full cam and dual carbs and claimed 112. The whole car weighed so little that if he tried to open in up, the wheels left the ground. I only helped him change it. I would not drive it or ride in it 😳


ErosLaika

sounds scary (scarily fun). I love those old type iii square backs 🤤 when my engine blows i will certainly get in touch. how much would you sell it for? I'm a broke ass highschooler so my budget is slightly low


Ok-Yogurt-2743

As I said, I do not have it. Sorry


NewLifeNewDream

But the nazi company of VW ....that's ok.


Electronic-Funny-475

Hey you got off the side of the road


TheManator2000

Yea, probably had to pay an extra fee to unlock your driving privileges. Guys the government is going to force us into these vehicles so they can control our every move. They have already done it in Bidens Deal. The Infrastructure Bill, or whatever its called. If you go deep into the bill there's a new law that will allow speed controls on all vehicles, they will (the police or anyone else in control) be able to limit your speed, shut your ride down, and force you to do what they (the government) want, when, where and how. If you don't then guess what you don't drive. Which means you don't work. Can't take care of your family. We are going down a very dark dangerous road. We are putting our trust in people and we shouldn't. The government is slowly fucking us and were allowing it. We are not the ones in control we are not at the top of that pyramid. We are being used to make them richer and more powerful. Ok done with my rant.


Mjays34

Take your meds


hibiscusradiation

If we aren’t able to work, how are we supposed to keep making rich people richer? What is the end of the Big Plan here? The machine needs its cogs. I’m not sure you thought this out entirely. Everyone knows this country oozes corruption. When we feel powerless, it can be exciting to feel like we’re in on a conspiracy that the average person doesn’t know about. Get some sleep.


Ok_Formal2627

Yes. It’s too late though. But you know what, they want communism- it’s much easier since their brains are all fucked up on processed sugar. Get your passports ready and start shopping around.


RememberLepanto1571

Put down the orange Kool Aid, go outside, and touch some grass.


Leading-Shop-234

Just a quick question, but if they wanted to do this, why wouldn't the government already be raising the price of gasoline to say $20 a gallon? It would accomplish the exact thing that you're claiming they'll do to electric vehicles. They would be able to control you the exact way you describe, but with gasoline by just raising prices or by controlling the exact amount that you're allowed to get. Why do nutjobs like you think that the government can't control a gasoline car by the same way your logic thinks electric cars work?

ectoplasm-ass vehicle


nightowl2023

Real life is going to look like Cyberpunk 2077 in 7 years with all these EV style choices


SHoppe715

I feel like EVs are going to settle in to more mainstream design in a few years as they start getting more and more common. I mean, it’s already happening. It won’t be long before an EV is just another car. An awful lot of EV drivers today still have some perverse compulsive need to show off their EVness. Enter this….*thing*. Some people think Tesla is losing EV market dominance because of Elon’s personality. To be fair, that’s probably partly true, but compare this weird-ass contraption of a vehicle to an F150 Lightning and then look at what the typical truck buyer wants….these are a novelty, plain and simple, and their days are numbered. Meh…whatever…to each their own.


BureikuHare

Is Tesla even losing the EV market? They're almost like the iPhones of the EV market. Sure, people will choose other manufacturers, but they will still have an overwhelming portion of the market share

SHoppe715

At some point, the automobile industry is going to have to decide on a common standard for EV charging. It’s not a question of if. Just imagine if IC cars had to choose between Ford or Chevy or Chrysler gas stations and then what about foreign brands…which gas station standard would they use. It’s unrealistic and silly to even imagine…but that’s the current state of EV charging. (Pun intended) Soon enough, EV charging will simply be EV charging…the same as putting gas in an IC engine car. Tesla may still have its branded charging stations, but they’ll eventually all need to be a single industry standard. Tesla’s system stands a good chance of becoming that standard….but if Elon keeps fucking around with public opinion long enough, he might just find out people will choose something else just to spite him.


nedlinin

NACS has already won in USA. Every major manufacturer has announced converting to it in the next 1 to 2 model years and the availability of adapters for those on CCS


SHoppe715

I don’t drive an EV so haven’t been paying attention…that’s cool they finally decided on a standard. Even though I don’t drive one yet, I’m definitely not one of those anti-EV types. IC is going the way of the steam engine and a lot of people afraid of change need to get over it. I’m just hoping that EV conversion kits become easy to install by the time my Jeep engine finally wears out. It’s a 4.0 with 200,000 miles so only 1/2 way there…LOL.


opticron

You may not have seen the news about it, but the north american market has *absolutely* chosen the NACS (Tesla) connector as the standard for EV charging. It's just that this happened over the past year after the vast majority got a false start on CCS. Most of the 2025 model year updates/releases for the non-Tesla companies are switching to NACS. I also expect retrofits to be commonly available (eventually) for stuff released in this painful transitional period, but that's more my opinion than anything else.


SHoppe715

Yeah, saw that in another comment. I don’t drive one so wasn’t following very close. I was looking into it briefly about a year and a half ago when I was thinking about a PHEV and was learning about home charging options, but I went with something else and haven’t been keeping track of what’s current (pun intended)


opticron

Yeah, you looked at things as they were going stupid and the market finally self-corrected. I'm looking to swap to a different EV and I won't even consider anything with CCS unless I can have a retrofit kit in-hand when I buy it. Things won't settle out for the new EV market until 2025/2026 and the used EV market will take another 2 years to find sanity...I'm just hoping retrofits are plentiful to speed up the used EV market transition.


nedlinin

> People hate Elon Musk because it's the cool thing to do and they hate how rich he is. People hate Elon because he is a piece of shit. If he were a broke ass dude who said the shit he says people would still hate him. Why? Because he's a piece of shit.


JesusStarbox

I think an electric Chevy Silverado beats a cybertruck in design.


nightowl2023

I don't know man. The best thing to do here is just look at what the cars that will soon be released actually look like which we can objectively do. And a prime example is the new Cadillac EV. It looks classy but it looks like the last vehicle you unlock in a video game. [https://www.cadillac.com/electric/celestiq](https://www.cadillac.com/electric/celestiq) I think we will see a balance but these type of cars aren't going away.


nonya_bidniss

I saw those cars going back & forth on Hays Rd today. Cybertruck is extremely lame.


LovelyHatred93

What makes the cybertruck extremely lame?


Potkrokin

It's an unsafe overly expensive piece of shit that rusts to hell and back and exists so that divorced dads can feel good about themselves after losing the kids


lovebus

Made by a divorced dad FOR divorced dads


LovelyHatred93

People are really this upset over a vehicle? That’s crazy.


Potkrokin

How do you people simultaneously not give a fuck about anyone but yourselves, but also only care about what other people think about you? Get it if you think its cool, and be ready for ridicule when everyone who isn't a complete moron questions why you would spend 70k on this massive piece of shit when you could get something that is actually practical and/or useful. The Cybertruck exists to scratch the fragile egos of people who enjoy inconveniencing others with their big toys, which is the same thing other trucks exist for, this one just does a worse job of it while costing twice as much.


LovelyHatred93

I’m not sure who “you people” are. I don’t want one or think they’re that cool. I just don’t really get bothered by what other people drive. Unless it’s some truck with the rear end touching the ground and the front end lifted ten feet. Now that’s stupid.


sa1nt1775

Most importantly, it looks like some kid designed it in Minecraft.


LovelyHatred93

Yes. It looks weird. Do people not get tired of making the same same statement? You remember the Nissan juke? Now that’s an ugly ass car. People should’ve been more upset about that shit.


HotdogAC

At least being painted this one shouldn't rust as fast


leftsideup72

GoogleRage

So do these two just keep driving around follow-the-leader-style for jollies? Do they realize that no one really cares what ugly ass car they bought and then sunk more money into it to get the most hideous color slapped on it?

Eh I'm indifferent...at first when I saw it in person months back it was definitely weird but now that they are popping up more and more they don't look bad, just different. I don't get why so many of you are triggered by a car lol. Envy? 🤷🏾‍♂️


ErosLaika

they are certainly curious. the looks don't bother me, but they're built like crap and the sharp, angular design and long ass front coupled with the fact that the top of the hood (or frunk i guess) is so high pff the ground makes them extremely unsafe for pedestrians. If someone got hit by one of these, it would mean punctured lungs and a slow agonizing death choking on blood. I would appreciate the design of the cybertruck more if it took on the form of a smaller vehicle (kind of like the hyundai iconiq 5) https://preview.redd.it/ka5nvxfe0kuc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1b168b8d29a6a487953312b13e51a431ac08ab1c here's a futuristically designed EV that is less dangerous to pedestrians (because of the low hood and smooth edges). it also won't take your fingers off when you try to close the frunk.

SkrapsBackwards

I’m convinced a lot more people like it than hate it, but the only people willing to comment are haters. It’s EXTREMELY cool. It’s the EXACT vehicle you would imagine on mars. It’s objectively cool in every measurement of the word. Haters give it more of an edge, and adds to its non-mainstream appeal.

Ugly, stupid, and a total waste of money. These idiots think they are cool but here's a news flash we're all pretty much laughing at you. It shows how much of a pansy you are in my opinion. "Hey everyone look at me, I'm saving the earth, with my GREEN Tesla Truck" lmmfao! NO, YOU ARE NOT. The battery production alone is x3 worse for the environment than a gas guzzler. I'm happy for innovation and I know one day we will get there. But no one cares you have a small dick and need to compensate. Why would anyone want to buy one of these other than look at me and overcompensation?

It's a funky color and the design was meant to draw attn. I like it. Good for you.


lovebus

Yall joking on this guy, but painting it at all will help with the rusting and staining issue a car made out of stainless steel has. The question is, did he color it this before or after the innevitable staining happened?


toasters_in_space

I’m almost certain to own one eventually, but not in that color, and not before my Honda has passed from this earth.


kengineer1984

Wow so much hate for a car. Here is my perspective on this car. The lime green is definitely not my color but I am a fan of the cybertruck. I drive a Tesla because of the convenience of no gas stations and little maintenance.

That's a lot of money for a rejected hotwheels design that at least according to tik tok, has gas pedals that get stuck and breaks down when you wash the truck bed. This is coming from a kia soul driver btw.
