Lara Croft’s boobs had more curves in 1996

Yes, in a late 1980s post-apocalyptic movie, it would work very well.
The inevitable Back to the Future remake featuring a Cybertruck instead of a Delorean.
Oh lord, you just spoke that into existence didn’t you?
I think while Robert Zemeckis is still alive were are safe, but once he passes I expect this will be fast-tracked within 6 months. He was born in 52, so I don’t think this is immanent but I guarantee this will happen eventually.
I hate that you’re right but at least we have a buffer.
Why must you say something so terrible and yet so true??
The thing absolutely has potential, just not as a truck.
It will probably make a great garbage can
How is this news. A car can be towed for several reasons other than mechanical problems.
It’s not out yet and it’s already been illegally parked
Yeah my first thought is if it’s not for sale yet, then maybe this isn’t a mechanical failure
As it’s not released, it’s probably illegal (contractually) to drive it on a public road. This is likely more akin to seeing tech writers with unreleased hardware.
Reading the article would indicate the truck was towed for being parked illegally.
Any excuse for Tesla bad
teslas are bad tho (even aside from them being electric cars)
Why?
Weird that we don’t get inundated with posts about other shitty cars.
Usually folks who persistently comment about that haven’t been in one.
People like to masturbate over “musk bad”
Shitty build quality for a start.
One of those lemmy mob buzz words.
No, if we’re using the actual meaning of the word.
You’re being downvoted, but only because you’re absolutely right and you’ve upset the circle jerkers.
You have upset then even more. Wait. Listen! You hear the “reeeeeee” in the distance? They are coming for me next. To tell me how they are autistic, have ADD, and think communism is a great idea, cause you know, gulags are super cozy.
its not good at cyber and its not good at truck. who is supposed to buy this useless thing?
Pavement princesses
Idiots
So people like Musk.
I’d’ve thought that’d be self evident.
This car reminds me so much of the one designed by Homer Simpson. Even Cybertruck as a model name makes me cringe, and this is coming from someone who quite likes the existing Tesla models.
It looks like someone drew the outline for it in crayon on a napkin, then demanded it be put into production.
More like some one stole from the set of some junky 80’s sci-fi action flick. damnation alley or maybe tango and cash…
It’s very reminiscent of the “future cars” in Back to the Future 2
Yeah, but, I actually like BTTF2, so I wasn’t gonna go there.
The BattleBagos from Damnation Alley were awesome!
Tango and Cash exactly what that truck reminds me of! Definitely Elon design this himself and it looks just like what a child would dream up.
Great movie! Always loved it and the truck was kick ass.
I hate that I like the look of this truck. I hate everything else about it, and want to be fully on board with the hate train having fun poking at this monstrosity, but I just can’t help but have some shit taste when it comes to the look of trucks…
Maybe the concept. Or edited photos from far away. Take a realistic, close-up look, and prepare to be disappointed. And the steel seems about as “fun” to take care of as a boat.
I mean, if there goal was to recreate some 90’s era video game graphics for nostolgia. Megarace, maybe.
At least it’s different. I can’t tell one truck from another. GMC, Ford, Ram, Chevrolet, they look exactly the same.
And why do you want to join a hate train? Love trains are better ❤️

A stupid truck deserves a stupid headline, I guess?
It doesn’t even deserve an article.
Why is this car rendered in such bad quality?
It just occurred to me that these things look sort of like the Zumwalt class stealth destroyers. Has anyone tested this thing against police radar guns? I mean it’s still ugly as hell, but if it’s harder for the cops to bust you for speeding…
The front is flat. It will be a perfect mirror for the radar. If anything it will be easier to lock on to.
I really don’t understand why Musk insisted on bringing what should have been just a concept vehicle to market.
People put down money for it years ago.
Which Tesla never should have done. It should have always been just a proof of concept at best.
Pretty sure Tesla needed the cash flow from pre-orders.
Free advertising
The Cybertruck reminds me of this but worse.
Perfection.

“Tesla bad, keep buying shitty gas vehicles”
- oil and auto makers
Just FYI, there are >20 other electric car makers in the market right now. A couple of those beat Tesla by a good margin, more than half have electric cars below 40k €.
My next car will be an electric car. It will not be a Tesla.
Furthermore, why are you blaming the consumer when corporations do the majority of the carbon pollution?
“Tesla bad, buy better quality electric cars from other manufacturers owned by people less terrible than musk”
- Actual people
I know it’s not a common opinion here, but there’s nothing remotely close to Tesla in terms of bang for the buck (whole experience, features, autopilot, charging infrastructure, power, range).
What are the ones you have in mind?
I’ve never driven any fully electric car yet so I’m not 100% sure about anything, but right now if I had the money I’d buy a Hyundai Ioniq 6 or Kia EV6 (or maybe a Polestar but I don’t like how they charge money to unlock features the car already has). From what I’ve seen and heard it seems like the Tesla vehicles are just poorly built and unreliable. Either way though I would just never buy a car that supported Musk because he is a genuinely horrible person.
(Also, not that it really matters that much compared to everything else, but I just feel like Hyundai/Kia has the best looking cars on the market right now and I love their designs so so much)
The kia is gorgeous! It’s incredible how they’ve improved all of their designs in the last couple of years! I love the ioniq 5 but really dislike the 6 because of its rear.
The built quality of Tesla is greatly exaggerated. Tesla is the most shorted stock so people with big pockets push really hard to make it look worse than it is. Never had any issue with mine, of all my friends with Teslas, never heard any issue except for the old models that were fixed right away in their driveway under warranty.
The whole experience of Tesla with the keyless system (you just walk to your car, open the door, sit, it adjusts the seat and wheel to you, and you just drive away, no button to start, just engage the speed)
The navigation system (reading from your calendar or suggesting based on your habits, sending an address from your phone even hours before you get into your car, selecting from favorites, voice search or typing in that huge responsive screen and it just calculates everything including charging stops based on peak usage to select one with less chance of any waiting time, no other company does that)
The scheduling to get the car ready (heated in winter, cooled in summer), it even defrosts and remove the snow from almost everywhere as it’s all glass, incredible!
The charging experience (charging stations everywhere, super reliable, like 3-5x more reliable than others, the speed of it, I almost never have to wait for it because I’m going to get food or emptying my bladder, the streaming services built in with Netflix/Disney/… always available, the games built in with controllers)
The clean inside that now makes me see all other cars as commercial airplanes, the autopilot that makes everyday drives and long road trips a complete pleasure and super relaxing, the constant updated with new features…
Of all this (and more), some other manufacturers get some stuff good, but none gets anything as spot on as Tesla, because they vertically integrate the whole stack, they know software, they know hardware, they know user experience. I can’t see myself use any other car than a Tesla until something close gets to the market.
But, I understand not willing to support Musk, just as I don’t want to support Apple or Bell.
Tesla is bad though. Everything about their business seems to be catered to stupid people.
Literally the only good thing must has ever done in any of his ventures seems to be releasing the Tesla plug connector to other manufacturers.
And even that I’m not convinced is good long term.
