Can someone explain what makes a Cybertruck owner "a huge douche?" It's just a car, and it's not a eco-catasrophe like a Hummer. I think they're pretty cool and unique looking, personally. Even if you don't like the aesthetic I don't understand the harshness.
Obligatory 'but Elon Musk is a cunt.'
They spent six figures on a truck that looks like ass, drives like ass, can't actually do truck things, falls apart in the rain and is the brainchild of the world's biggest douchebag.
And they're happy about it, somehow!
That doesn't make the owner a douchebag. I guess it's viewed as a distasteful accessory? Ok.
I don't understand why I'm being downvoted.
It's the latter that really seals it, IMHO. The Cybertruck is the most purely Elon vehicle to come out of Tesla, and the first since Elon went full mask-off. Buying it, at great personal expense, and driving it around is basically saying you approve of everything he's doing.
They're massive death machines on wheels. They're one of the largest and heaviest trucks on American roads, the visibility in them is virtually non-existent, the reflectors are pointed so high they barely light up the road, while blinding every other driver. Not to mention the fact that all those sharp edges and steel construction means if they hit a pedestrian, it will slice them in half.
I haven't been in a cybertruck (probably no one in this thread has) but the visibility looked decent in the MKBHD review.
Generally it's assumed that the only people gullible enough to fall for Cybertruck marketing are Elon Musk superfans.
