If you drive a douchemobil, you shouldn’t be surprised when people think you’re a douche.
Carter tells the paper he has never been a fan of the limelight, somehow forgetting what sort of attention a massive, angular truck would garner him.
Lmao dude bought the fugliest car ever made and didn’t think twice about that decision
and later,
He knew the truck would be an eye-catcher in Maine. But he wanted it for its uniqueness.
“It’s so ugly it’s cute. It’s like a French bulldog,” he said. “I don’t think it’s the most attractive car in the world, but it’s different. And I like to be different.”
Thinking someone is a douche and actively damaging their car are two completely different things. Not cool to damage property like that, just point and laugh or loudly exclaim how that is the ugliest looking car you’ve ever seen and you pity whoever thought it was a good idea to buy one.
People being assholes over it is dumb, but I can’t say I would want one. I saw one recently at my local grocery store and I couldn’t stop thinking how poorly built it looked. It just seemed like the fit and finish of the body panels was kinda bad. I got an overall feeling like it was something put together by a couple of teenagers in metal shop.
There’s one down the street from me. It’s a damn eyesore.
Have you tried quitting to the menu and turning up texture detail? Looks like it might be something to do with anti-aliasing. Hopefully will be patched in the next update.
Instructions unclear: now wearing eye patches and can’t see anything, task failed successfully
Yeah but then all the NPCs outside wouldnt have lara croft triangle titties
Complain to the HOA… no junkers on the property or street
Lol we don’t have an HOA around here thankfully, otherwise my 50yo camper would have to find a new home
People can be shitty, but I still find it amusing that it’s so ugly and stupid it provokes people into a rage.
I think it’s because it costs an obscene amount while being something only a moron would buy. So when someone who is struggling to make ends meet sees that an absolute moron has so much cash that they can blow it on something this dumb, they get angry. It’s not fair that they work hard just to make ends meet while some failson has $100k to blow on a dumb car. At least a Maserati, Porsche, or Ferrari of similar price looks cool.
Or on the flipside… No one feel this way about hideous AMC cars that have been lovingly restored and maintained. I love those hideous monsters lol.
That’s different.
I find all these comically oversized pickups obnoxious.
The cybertruck is just the latest, most obnoxious model to date.
Isn’t that the goal of owning a machine like that? You are trying to provoke a reaction. The car I own was the single most commonly sold sedan the year it was made. I don’t want people reacting to me, noticing me, etc. I want to be another person in the crowd.
If you take a shit in front of a camera you can’t really be upset that people are commenting on it.
I don’t think it’s the car per se that angers people but the idiocy of lemmings who are destroying the world by supporting people like Trump and Musk and Nick Fuentes. And by buying a Tesla car, that’s what you do, you enable Elon Musk to keep on destroying the world.
The exact definition of a ”hateful car”.
One of my neighbors has one. When the ford flex next to it is the better truck in all respects…ya done fucked up
Not only did he get an unpopular truck, but he still uses Reddit. This guy is 0-2. What’s next?
He uses Twitter. Probably watches Televised News
Anyone that supports muskrat is an automatic pos in my book. He’s an evil degenerate.
I’ve never liked that nickname, just because muskrats are pretty cool and don’t deserve to be brought down to that shithead’s level.
You’re right it’s a disservice to the glorious beings that are muskrats. How about we just call him… sir shitstain nazi mckfuckface?
I would suggest “Fuckface von Clownstick” but that name is already taken.
I bet if you knew this guy you’d realise he’s actually 0 - infinity
I mean is it really a truck?
There needs to be a way to validate if something is a truck.
Like, if you can’t put a 2x4 in it, is it a truck? Is an el camino a truck?
IF a cybertruck is a truck, is a Pontiac Aztek a truck?
Per the legal US definition, almost every SUV is a “light truck”, including my 1999 Subaru Forester…
And the reason for this is that the “light truck” classification has weaker emissions standards, so they can cheap out on efficiency of the engine which means higher profit margins (and more harmful pollution for us to enjoy inhaling).
I heard the cyber truck called the “Incel Camino” and now I can’t think of it any other way.
I mean, the el Camino caught a lot of flak when I was young. I remember my “surfer/ stoner/ slacker/ loser” gen x cousin who was a pool guy used his as a work vehicle and I guarantee that guy was SMASHING with that ride. I’m not saying a cyber truck truck is on that level and but some things take time to catch on.
If you can’t fit a sheet of plywood in the bed, I’d call it a waste of time.
The El Camino is a mullet.
Hey a 1961 Ford rancho was my first vehicle. I did a lot of truck things with that. It was even one of one built of the crappy falcon body, which was one of Ford’s first unibodies. Boy did that thing flex.
I even parked next to 2005ish Ford F150, with that dumb extra short bed. My 50 year old caruck has a bigger bed on it.
There needs to be a way to validate if something is a truck.
Isn’t there already legal definitions such as gross vehicle weight? I know there have been some edge cases where people argue cars as trucks to get special truck access for commercial use. Chevy HHR comes to mind with some contractors.
USA Light Truck definition: Firstly, the vehicle must have a gross vehicle weight–that’s the curb weight plus payload–of no more than 8,500 lbs. Secondly, it has to be designed to transport persons, property, or be fitted with special features allowing its “off-street or off-highway operation and use”.
Honestly if the POS that Tesla sells here counts as a truck, my bicycle does…
has been bombarded with reactions (both good and bad)
Are articles just school essays with a minimum word count?
The sentence in brackets reduces its lethality by 90%
Verbal crumple zones.
Yes.
Is there any vehicle in the world that screams rich asshole more than the cyber truck? There are more expensive vehicles for sure, but my first thought if I saw a Pagani wouldn’t be to flip it off.
At least with other expensive cars you can admire the craftsmanship, elegant appearance, and significant history behind the brand or specific model of car. For the money, you get none of those things with a cyber truck.
People who care about such things aren’t Tesla customers. You need to have ultimate shallowness to spend money on Elon’s shitty products.
There are more expensive vehicles for sure
I can understand hitting the lottery and spending six figures on a luxury sports car. I cannot image why anyone would have voluntarily submitted themselves to this vehicle. Its the automotive equivalent of lighting six figures on fire.
I thought it was the automotive equivalent to letting six figures get rained on till it is ruined
Spelling
I guess any vehicle you can’t afford can scream rich asshole if you’re bitter enough
Shit boomer take
I may be a boomer but at least I don’t spend my days hating shit.
It depends on the car. If I see a nice looking expensive car I don’t think they’re an asshole. Seeing something amazing is a treat for a gearhead like me, no matter how bitter I am.
The Cybertruck, however, is ugly as fuck. Unless your aesthetic is 80s low-poly video games it is even uglier in person than pictures. The fact that something that ugly costs that much is almost insulting.
Apparently not everyone thinks it’s ugly.
any vehicle you can’t afford
Definitely a difference between living beyond your means and simply pissing the money away.
Admittedly, this vehicle was made by a guy who wrecked his McLauren inside a year. When you’re a billionaire, I guess you just see everything as disposable.
your truck is bad and you should feel bad.
Isn’t getting attention the whole point of buying a expensive car like that for most people? I mean the same goes for expensive sports cars: most people don’t get these because they are particularly good drivers - hell, some are even so old they can’t even get into those cars properly.
I saw one in person finally a few weeks ago and just started laughing; it’s even uglier in person! But I wouldn’t intentionally try to damage someone else’s vehicle; that’s even more ridiculous.

Should’ve bought a bicycle lol, there’s no better way to get around town if you ask me.
That depends on where you live lots of places are very unfriendly to bike riders

It’s wild that they attack cyclist. I am mostly a pedestrian first as I live in a walkable city, but I was walking my bike to the shop for repairs and there was a dramatic shift in how drivers reacted to me just walking a bike. It’s insane how much needless contempt they have for someone on a bike.
It’s not super common (at least in my experience) but it still happens way more often than it should.
Hating anything that helps the planet is now the religion of the right. We’re talking about people who deliberately mod their trucks to create more harmful emissions.
E-bike. It’s more energy efficient than straight biking.
I like my ebike, but I like my bicycle even more. I can’t quite place my finger on why, but it’s probably because my bicycle is a pretty decent hardtail and my ebike is a cheap drop-shipped folding fatbike that I use more for heavier hauls or recovery days. I’d probably change my opinion if I had something like a Specialized Turbo lol.
I pull my inflatable kayak with a bike trailer and thought about an ebike but then, I also do touring and the places I go to are beyond battery life. For example this weekend I’m cycling 90 km to my camp site and there’s no electricity. And I need to get back.
And the second issue with this is that AFAIK there’s no fast charging on most ebikes. So if I need to stop somewhere to charge it when the battery will be dead after 75 km, it will take an eternity to charge.
So in the end, for my case, as someone cycling a few thousand kilometres a year, for “longer distances”, it’s wouldn’t be very practical.
You can still pedal without the battery, you just don’t get the assist. What do you mean by fast charging? My battery goes from empty to full in 4 hours, and I have a 50 mile range. (80.5 km)
But with a dead battery you have to haul it plis your stuff, which was supposed to be there to make it easier in the first place.
And by fast charge, I mean like an electric car, that can fully cjarge in about 15 to 20 minutes instead of hours.
Wouldn’t you still get some benefit once you’re going due to regenerative breaking? Though I’m just guessing as to how they are set up, no idea if they even do regenerative breaking.
[laughs in vegetarian]
Should’ve bought a squirrel

It’s probably the worst car design to date. Also, prone to rusting
It’s prone to a lot of things apparently, more to follow I’m sure.
It’s lame and an egregious waste of money. I’ll notice you and think “ha, loser”. That’s the end of it.
Some people gotta take the bad purchase decision of someone else like it’s an attack on their chosen identity!
What a psycho
Teslas in general are super ugly but this is an abomination.
IDK, some of their sedans don’t really look that bad IMO but this thing is a huge departure from previous designs.
I’m in the minority of people who really like the design, I just wouldn’t ever consider buying anything from Tesla.
In a sucker for the low poly aesthetics.
It’s sad that literally everything else on this thing is a dumpster fire
Oh, it looks cool, you’re not wrong. It’s just a shame it’s apparently shit.
The aesthetics are nice in my opinion, I wish there were more distinct and unique vehicles out there.
he really should not have bought Twitter that is what I think pissed people off the most
