He says he never wanted any attention.
Did he try not buying a truck with a unique design that almost no one owns?
Would I let him know that I’d rather have the car Homer Simpson designed instead of his, and that its not just the design that makes me feel that way? Absolutely.
Would I go out of my way to do so? Probably not. But if thr conversation went that way…
Would I spit on or key his car? Absolutely not. Thats weird as hell.
He bought a truck that hasn’t fully rendered yet. Of course everyone hates it.
Someone put led lights on a metal dumpster and installed a windshield, who’s gonna love that?
I saw a real Cybertruck on a street for the first time last week. Looks much worse than in pictures, like a modernized Trabant… (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant).
So what happened with this thing anyway? When it was first announced, it was polarizing, but a lot of people still seemed pretty hyped for it. But now that it’s out, everyone’s shitting on it.
It took a lot longer from announcement to launch than anticipated. In that time Musk bought twitter and went full out in the open right-wing nut and several other automakers announced and released electric trucks.
The vehicle itself suffers from the panel alignment quality control issues that every Tesla suffers from but exaggerated because the body panels really need tight tolerances to look right. The grade of stainless steel they used isn’t great for weather resistance and without a clearcoat it immediately starts to lose the factory finish.
I hate lots of cars, I also dont sympathise with anyone who has problems with their Cybertruck. But going out of your way to shit on something that makes someone else happy makes you an asshole.
Agree completely with your sentiment.
I’m also curious how on earth this human didn’t understand that buying a cybertruck would bring him a ton of attention.
