Couldn't happen to an uglier, more stupid car.

It looks like something a 6 year old designed on a 1980s PC.

I would usually give a lot of credit to someone trying something different, but I'd drive a 1971 Ford Pinto before I ever intentionally get within photographable proximity to a Cybertruck.

When the cybertruck was first announced, I actually appreciated how different it looked, but its performance and association to Musk has entirely ruined any hope of me ever liking a low-poly vehicle ever again.

That's quite exactly what they were going for actually. Lo-res graphic to represent hi-tech. Somewhat like military camo is now pixelated for no practical reason.

Just because you don't know why digital camouflage exists doesn't mean it has no practical purpose.

Neither pixellation nor digitization contributes to the camouflaging effect. The pixellated style, however, simplifies design and eases printing on fabric, compared to traditional patterns. While digital patterns are becoming widespread, critics maintain that the pixellated look is a question of fashion rather than function.

Indeed.

Still shocking he never hired a designer. Even an idiot fraud like Elizabeth Holmes knew to do that.

It looks like my drawing of a car as a 4 year old brought to reality

Really? I see chuds driving them all over my town unfortunately. Admittedly far less popular than other Tesla vehicles though which are absolutely everywhere here in CA. Seems like most people forgot Musk is a nazi already.

Who would have thought a three year olds drawing of a car would have not resonated with the masses.

Should have included a heads up display

A friend of mine called it the modern Edsel when it first came out

Now if the world were only truly a meritocracy.

Cybertruck Is the Biggest Flop

Why does anyone think that is still news?

[-] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 2 points 47 minutes ago

How you fuck up making a truck so badly?

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 2 points 35 minutes ago* (last edited 35 minutes ago)

Yeah the electric pickup is such a no brainer for the US market and it was one of the first.

But what if it was horribly ugly and made everyone hate you? Surely it will sell even better then!

More bloodthirsty than the Pinto too.
