It finally happened. While I was out on an errand, I saw the very first ZYBERTRUKKK in my area with my own eyes. (hexbear.net)

I hadn't seen one since I moved far to the northeast, and I was starting to hope I never would have to see one.

Until I did.

They are clownishly clunky looking and are look several sizes larger than they should be, which defeats the purpose of being an electric vehicle to begin with because of all the extra energy needed to drag that shitbox around.

I then saw a second ZYBERTRUKKK a few minutes later.

I was on shrooms, on a walk and I'd passed a b-ball court and playground a few hundred meters back and suddenly the first one I've encountered is barreling down the road in the direction of the kids and I got so worried and made some arm motions like please turn back don't go that way

Did you peel the window off like a onion layer for the delicious treat inside (credit cards)?

Both of them didn't park anywhere near me; I live in a fairly remote area so they kept puttering along so I couldn't even if I felt adventurous. sicko-wistful

I was going to say i saw my first one in the wild, too but you saw a second one? I'm so sorry 😔

I haven't seen one for all the time since I moved here (I moved before ZYBERTRUKKKS were a thing, even in CA) until I saw two in one day.

I hate that these get enough attention that people post about them everywhere. Discords, Facebook, Hexbear, you name it. You can't escape the cybertruck spotting.

Now that I've seen two of them in one day, I can confirm they are strikingly gaudy and hideous and take up a comical amount of space even compared to other overcompensation devices like typical Burgerlander pickups.

I can't blame others for pointing at that, though if it's in some sort of praise or admiration, what the fuck.

Pictures truly can't capture how hideous they look in real life.

I'm glad it's super expensive to get a Zybertrukkk in Europe and make it legal, because if I ever end up seeing one of these clunkers, it's satisfying to know they wasted a lot of money.
