    Cybertruck

    Today I saw a Tesla Cybertruck in person for the first time. Two questions:

    1. What drugs was Elon on when he approved this?

    2. Where can I get some?

    2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

    Is that the most butt ugly thing you've ever seen or not?

      Ugliest machine of any type I've ever seen. By a wide margin.

        They made them stand out so Europeans and Kanadians would know which vehicle to vandalize ......

          I wound up behind one the other day, and the size of that thing totally blocks out the sun. It's like driving behind a billboard.

          Elon has gone public, saying the thing was a mistake. Oh well.

            I've probably seen a dozen of the things, all have been that silver-grey color. I got to wondering if they were all this color so looked it up, I think it said 6 or 7 colors were available... Doesn't matter I guess, nothing go'in to make them look worth a sheet.

                I think it's a DeLorean type of thing - bare metal. Must weigh a few tons.

                  Same here and I see two regularly and I'm in the sticks

                  One guy I'll give him credit for putting the thing to the test, he appears to be a farmer or in agricultural business anyway, he's always hauling stuff and looking like its been in a muddy pasture

                  When I go to half way decent size city forty five miles away I usually see several , in the last year or two been spotting painted ones.

                    I saw one the other day where it's owner installed an old school truck cap and rattled canned it silver at an attepmt to match. I suspect it was done as some sort of statement vs.a need...it was poorly done and looked ridiculoius.

                        I hate anything that's "new" or out of the ordinary because I'm old and refuse to evolve, therefore nobody else should be allowed to either.

                          Quite right, too.

                            I saw one the other day, painted olive drab and Toyota painted across the tail. I almost fell off my bike.

                              There's quite a few of them in my area. Funny thing is though I've never seen even one with so much as a pair of pliers being hauled in the bed.
