I got a good look at that ugly fucker (how is it so much uglier in person?!) as I pedaled around it because it was parked in the (semi-separated) bike lane.

I haven't. Luckily, they are illegal here, which is one of the benefits to not live in the US.

[-] DarkDecay@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Just one of the benefits indeed. It's not even a top ranked benefit but it's still amazing. No one is missing anything by not being in america

What, you don't want to be harassed by the Gestapo while overburdened with medical debt for a basic flu??

[-] DarkDecay@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Not today, or ever really

[-] smeg@infosec.pub 30 points 11 months ago

Easily mistaken for a dumpster.

[-] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago

Sad raccoon noises.

Seriously, actual problem: raccoons mistake them for dumpsters. It's not just humans being mean to muskrat.

[-] tomi000@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Thats why OP thinks theyve only seen one. They disguise pretty well.

Engineers design a car: McLaren F1 road car

MBAs design a car: Tesla Cybertruck

Any further questions?

[-] Addition@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago

Imo, the MBAs design is the RAM 1500. Huge profit margin, massive marketing scheme, dogshit engineering, dies exactly when the warranty expires.

Cybertruck is what happens when a ketamine addicted nepo baby ceo high on their own ego designs a car.

I have a few in my city I see everyday. They are so ugly. Can’t imagine anyone actually thinking they look cool.

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 4 points 11 months ago

People always say that pictures don't evven do that monstrosity justice. I can only imagine

[-] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 11 months ago

Someone around here has one with a wrap that I could best describe as "blood-tinged feces." Even the ones with basic blue and black wraps look awful.

It goes beyond putting lipstick on a pig. It's putting lipstick on a pig that got hit by a few dump trucks then rolled onto the shoulder a few weeks ago.

[-] Breezy@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

First time i saw one, dude threw a fast food bag out the window while driving. I yelled asshole as he went by.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

They are surprisingly monstrous.

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 11 points 11 months ago

I actually seen a lot of functional garbage truck collecting garbage twice a week.

Ohh wait we're talking about Tesla's garbagetruck.

[-] Muffi@programming.dev 11 points 11 months ago

I recently went to Yosemite, and saw several Cybertrucks there. They were so ugly that they made the beautiful nature seem even grander! Thanks, Tesla.

[-] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 9 points 11 months ago

Fr? I have seen so goddamn many. Like over 10 unique cybertrucks. There are 5 ish in my city that I see often and this is not a large city

[-] anothermember@feddit.uk 7 points 11 months ago

It's not sold in many countries, I've never seen one.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

They're not sold in countries where pedestrian safety is a consideration.

When I see them in traffic I put my thumb out horizontally until I'm sure I have their attention, and then rotate to a thumbs down. Apparently they really hate ancient Roman iconography being used against them.

[-] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 11 months ago

There are cybertrucks around town. They look like bad eighties sci-fi.

Contrast: good eighties sci-fi.

[-] TheJesusaurus@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months ago

The worst 80s SciFi had more inspired designs than that

[-] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago

I've never seen the driver, but there's one that parks near my work.

Constantly having to resist the urge to go key it. (too close to work, I may even be seen on works cameras. I need this job) One parking lot further away and I'd go chuck a can of self-etching paint/primer on it.

[-] fnrir@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 11 months ago

I'm pretty sure it would scratch if you just stared at it hard enough.

[-] Jarix@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Why spend excess money on that. Tomatoes lemons vinegar salt all do the job and there's no need to do anything other than raid your pantry or just get rid of questionable quality food

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I have a dealership where I live. They look like such garbage. I am not a fan of the aesthetic or the mechanics of it. It sucks all the way around.

[-] MangioneDontMiss@feddit.nl 1 points 11 months ago

there are a couple in my neighborhood i've been thinking about giving some paint job modifications.
