Official Thread: Cybertruck (Cybrtrk) Event - Nov 21, 2019

Eh, decided to order one...the price and specs are there...and I don't really care about the looks

Well, in that case... You're in luck!

 

[Ostrichsak]

Put down the deposit--wife wants one.

I guess lucky for you that your wife doesn't concern herself much with looks.

They did stick to the mission - low cost EV truck means they have advanced on battery tech.

All that storage stuff Rivian has is fluff. It's a ****ing truck, throw your *sugar* in the bed.

Hopefully the bed is larger than a ridgeline. Does not appear to be.

Let's go camping.

The new Tesfalia camper van!

 

[Mikedrives]

I bet they had the windows break on purpose just to make sure the video goes viral.

Is the steering thing, (it is not a wheel), even legal? It seems like a concept vehicle that some cues will appear in later vehicles. Try putting something over the side of the bed and retrieving it over the tall sides. Put a box in the back, step on the brakes and have it slide forward. Now you have to climb in to retrieve it. Tailgate is cool.

You made me feel bad but then I looked at your picture.

Let's see....Does the Model S, X, or 3 look like other cars on the road? If you want to predict the future, you make it happen. In a few years this truck will be all of the roads and it won't look out of place. What will look out of place are all the other cars....I see this now every day when I try comparing my 3 to all the smaller cars.

You must have been one of the two or three Pontiac Aztek buyers.

So what's up with the owl?View attachment 479793

The owl is reference to blade runner... it had more meaning in the original book (Do Androids dream of electric sheep) but still made its way into the movie.

Pulling a rounded silver Airstream with an angular silver truck will definitely turn some heads. 120/240V onboard power means boondocking is going to be much easier. Range will be extraordinary with the camper behind it.

I wish I could like it more, but I can't currently imagine losing my S and having this be my daily driver.

My last comment for the night:

This thing is hideous. I really do hope I'm living some really effed up dream because this feel unreal and dystopic. Hey Elon, wasn't it you who asked something like "why can't electric cars look like regular cars?"

This is batshit crazy and I sincerely hope never to see one of these on the road. End of rant.

 

[Beeblebrox42]

What will they do for windshield wipers?

Where do the rear seat passengers store their heads?

The front seat appears close to the glass as well. The good thing about that is when your window is fogged up, you can just stick your tongue out and lick it to defog.

Getting rid of the peak and a slightly more traditional cab/bed shape would help a ton IMO

Bohemian Grove. Elon just sacrificed the stock price for the elites. LOL

 

[Justicepool]

So very disappointed in the design of this truck. It is hideous. Awful. Disgusting. What a major fail. The specs are amazing, but the design is a complete and total failure.
