My inner conspiracy theory is that Elon made the Cybertruck's shape while learning to use a modeling software, sent it to the engineers at Tesla and said "make this a car".
Idk if it's true but I remember reading that it's what happens when you take steroids but don't work out, which I'm totally willing to believe without any proof because it's 1000% something Elon Musk would do
There are a few in my town and it's really hard not to stare as they go by, even after seeing them around a bit. I imagine a few accidents have happened by now because people can't stop rubbernecking and going "Holy shit, it looks even stupider in real life!!" >> crash.
When I was a kid, I would read (among other things) X-Men novels. Wolverine wasn't as popular of a character back then, but he frequently featured prominently. A common descriptor for his character was "barrel chested."
Both of my dogs are barrel-chested, so I understand the concept. My 18 pound chihuahua/dachshund mix has to wear a medium-sized harness because his chest is so big.
