    I don’t understand the market for the Swastikar. You need to love Nazism, believe that global warming is real, and be able to finance a 100K vehicle. That’s a Venn Diagram with an incredibly small center circle.

    The recalls and potential to be burned alive inside also have to be ignored.

      You need to… believe that global warming is real

      No you don’t. There are plenty of chuds who like higher-end electric cars just because they’re extremely fast.

      I think it’s way simpler than that. Has to be, these people are dumb.

      You also need to be clueless about off-road and towing capabilities. I see an odd similarity to this car as the Hummer brand in the 2000s. It represented some sort of gluttonous American superiority at the time. Whereas the Hummer alluded to a military superiority, the Cybertruck now alludes to a BigTech superiority. It’s all the attempt to buy yourself an identity.

      It’s simple to understand. Just look at the company’s stock value since the CEO outed himself as a Nazi.

    Fun fact: Every month something else falls off these things, or they find out a spring shower disables the electrical system, or…

      Doc doesn’t have to can’t get it to 88mph, to travel Back to the Dealership in limp mode!

  • Makes me glad that Bob Gale is preventing any new Back to the Future movies from being made, 'cause you know that someone in Hollywood would have tried to make a Cybertruck time machine otherwise.
