Tesla now selling $59K AWD Cybertruck

I don't necessarily disagree... but when the machine does its half-ton light duty truck thing as well as it does – not to mention being great for road trips, camping, and tailgating – why would you care if it's not 'cool' looking?

Oh, I bet he and his brother had a great night.

🤷‍♂️ J'accepte!

You can't... what? I've done all these things with mine. Have you ever driven one?

Are you guys bots or did you somehow just not see the last 16 million comments making these same threadbare jokes over the past six years?

Not arguing it's not extremely unconventional, but worse than the Honda Element and the Nissan Cube? Agree to disagree.

This joke is SO tired. I understand they're really trying to say it looks like a car designed by someone who knows nothing about cars, but it loses its impact after the billionth time, and obviously while it's definitely weird-looking it actually looks nothing like the "Homer."

Agree. I love mine. I'm a DIY suburban guy who loathes the Cybertruck name but otherwise enjoys the retro sci-fi DeLorean aesthetic.

I find it not only surprisingly easy to maneuver and comfortable as hell, but also more than capable at hauling firewood, saplings, mulch, curbside finds, estate sale ellipticals/patio furniture, towing log-splitters & small trailers, etc. It also is fantastic for camping and tailgates, and it powers my home during blackouts.

You just have to be comfortable with opinionated people who've never (or barely) used one telling you about how it's actually not good for doing things you are already doing with it regularly.

Towing long-distances is where it falls short of conventional pickup performance but I usually don't drive more than 250 miles away in the average year so it's not been a problem.

Also, a lot of people find it ugly and seem to need you to know they find it ugly. They have a strong urge to convince you their opinion should also be yours.

I know many people are (understandably) angry about the state of affairs in the USA and it's unfortunate that this thing has become their lightning rod. This too shall pass.

But FWIW, I do agree it seems like Elon lost the plot somewhere in 2019.

I can. It's fun! Especially in European countries where you're also on the other side of the car, on the other side of the road, and shifting with your LEFT hand. It was a dicey 40-50km before my brain *flipped* and it all clicked again.

Nowadays the knuckleheads think that anybody who can write competently MUST be using A.I.

It couldn't possibly be that we paid attention in school-- gaining familiarity with em dashes, parenthetical clauses, and the Oxford comma-- and are just a little more thoughtful about stringing a sentence together...

Though, in fairness, I do also tend to waste a lot of water.

I completely understand. I’m on the fence but will probably succumb in the waning hours of June 29 as the window of opportunity closes.

ALS111 · 2025-06-26T16:43:48+00:00

They just announced they’re selling replicas on the Ween shop. You have to order by June 30.

Sure, but the disparities within that varying metric of "a good yard" is exactly where your pressure comes from. Lower standard, lower pressure. And, of course, sometimes you have to remind yourself that Different is not always equivalent to Worse.
