Found in the wild in Tennessee
First thing I immediately noticed was the rust
Musky Bois be like “that’s not rust, it’s patina”.
I don’t see any rust? That’s just the fingerprints that you can’t not get all over it.
Those are fingerprints? Fuck is this thing made out of😭😭
Bare stainless steel, lol
What rust? The dirt around the door jams?
I saw someone refer to these stupid things as “Incel-Caminos”, and that’s the most perfect description of anything I’ve come across recently.
I’ve said for a while that they look like a cheap fiberglass shell put over an El Camino for a straight-to-video Mad Max ripoff from the 80s.
This is my favorite thing I’ve seen today.
Are the tires really that thin or it just looks like that in the image?
They are wider than most car tires, but they are also very tall. Their website says the tires are 285/65R20. Very high profile, even with 20” wheels.
I actually thought they looked too thin too, but in the sense that it might help it look more like a hot wheels car (and a little better to look at)
Now I’m just thinking it was supposed to have wider tires and they changed that too
Looks like a standard tire to me
I saw one of these for the first time the other day and was kind of awestruck at how dumb it looked in real life. I mean, I was never a big fan of the design but it really looked so much worse in person
I’ve said something similar in other threads - after seeing other people say it’s worse in person, I was still surprised at how cartoonishly awful it looked when I first saw one. They look terrible in pictures, but so much worse in person. I saw one that was painted bright green and it was so bad that I burst out laughing.
SAME! I was surprised both at how big it was, and how much I didn’t like it.
Wait, you’ve never wanted to drive a doorstop?
It’s been a lifelong dream of mine.
hah menus looked cooler than the game itself
Just saw one for the first time today. Man its honestly much worse in person.
it might be the ugliest car ever made honestly, i urge people to find an uglier mass-produced car.
It is very close in ugliness to the Fiat Multipla https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_Multipla
Yeah, I know we’re all shitting on Elon by proxy, but the multipla, Aztec, pt cruiser, Chevy SSR and plenty others are uglier.
I can see the Multipla being uglier than the Cybertruck because it looks like two differently-sized cars spliced together. However, there is no way I agree the PT Cruiser, Chevy SSR, and Aztec are uglier than the Cybertruck. Look at the Cybertruck again. It looks like a 10 year-old drew a truck on MS Paint using a mouse.
Taste is subjective so if someone doesn’t like it that’s valid.
For me, designs are successful based on the impression and experience they give people. The cyber truck to me gives off a futuristic vibe, it’s intentional, it’s a design that knows what it wants. Minimal polygons, minimal rounded edges. Uncommon material/finish. Visually striking, unique, memorable.
I think the Aztec isn’t a good design because it wants to be futuristic but doesn’t go far enough. Because it’s trying to retain some traditional elements it looks like design by committee.
My impression is the pt cruiser and SSR were intended to be modern takes on retro/classy designs from say, the 50s. In the sense that they’re curved they succeed, but the curves are in the wrong places and the curve radiuses are wrong. They look bubbly. They look like toys. The effect is amplified because they don’t have a lot of the fine detail that was present on old cars.
a design that throws any modern safety feature in designing overboard is a bad design. It’s ugly, and it will age even uglier. It’s an incredibly dangerous design for anyone not inside it, it should be banned.
I would take a PT cruiser over the cyber truck any day.
I would probably take a pt cruiser just because of the reputational risk of driving a cyber truck - that people will think you’re an Elon stan. But purely from a looks perspective I think the cyber truck looks way better.

Bruh. Nobody can judge you for having bad taste if you don’t point it out.
Mmm, I dunno. I kinda like this one, actually. It’s silly.
The Fiat Multipla is pretty bad, though. Who thought a double-chin as a car was a good idea.
Aww. I kinda loved the SSR. It feels like a modern take on a vintage style.
Yeah I know some people like it. Only reason it was on my mind was my mom was talking about wanting one the other day and I had to look it up.
I never expected something to take that from the Pontiac Aztek
Was driving in a Houston suburb and had one overtake me on the right. Just gave it a super wide berth. I know my 24 year old Civic would shred like paper if that thing hit me.
now you have to pay a monthly fee to be able to drive with a boot on your wheel
I recently saw one in Tennessee too, and I was pretty lucky I was wearing sunglasses driving by it! It was early afternoon, with clear skies all around lol
For the record, the one I saw didn’t have a boot on it, yet
What an ugly, dirty truck.
Stupid Ugly Vehicle
You cater exclusively to the easily grifted, surprising to find out that many of them will be deadbeats trying to scam you back.
Looks like you got some ransomware.
How long does it take to tame a Cybertruck?.. 🤔
2 weeks with an angle grinder ought to do it.
They’re weak to water.
Are we taming, maiming or killing though?
I fine with all three if it’s a dumb truck.
Make sure to wash it with gasoline to remove the rust 👍
Diesel fuel would probably work ok, gasoline will evaporate and make it rust quicker.
The way Elon’s politics have gone it wouldn’t surprise me if he started promoting fossil fuel use.
Sorry to say, you’re basically wrong on all ends.
Diesel exhaust is one of the quickest things known to cause cancer. And gasoline is like the quickest (not safest) to clean metal.
Thank goodness they put the sticker on the window. It would have damaged the door.
… Wouldn’t that be especially bad on a normal painted door’s clear coat?
Paint on that door looks like it’s already fucked.
lol paint
It’s not paint it’s bare stainless steel. Those are fingerprints that you’re seeing.
Do you open up the door by clawing at the outside with no handle?
The orange tag says “FUCK YOU” with no further elaboration.
You joke, but when my parents bought an electric car, the cops in their small town started harassing them. My mom drives like a saint but they keep pulling her over and giving her tickets that aren’t valid. She said she’s caught them waiting for her to leave the grocery store so they can follow her out of the parking lot and try to catch her doing something wrong. But she doesn’t, so they just pull her over anyway. This isn’t even in a rural town where people are rolling coal. It’s just a small suburb. Why do they care?
Electric = Liberuls
yea that didn’t happen
Thank you, oh arbiter of truth on the internet.
Is it already rusting? lol
It’s stainless steel so it’s just surface level, but yes lmao it wasn’t treated for outdoor use
So what! I love scraping rust off my vehicle every week
-cyber truck owners, presumably
They don’t do that, but they are supposed to clean it right away whenever they park. Really.
Still love the truck!
I’m a St. Louis boy so I grew up with the Gateway Arch. It looks better after 55 years of exposure to the elements than Cybertrucks do after 5 weeks.
DeLorean also managed to get it right, despite distractions like building the things in Belfast during the Troubles and getting entrapped into cocaine smuggling.
Yeah the bodywork isn’t what’s wrong with the DeLorean.
Maybe it encountered some extreme conditions, like a car wash.
Or maybe the extreme condition known as out of doors
The cyberpinto got booted
