Tesla's Cybertruck - so bad it's fantastic!

I really hope it works. It's a break from the generic, urbanised faff available these past years...

I have to say, assuming it does what it says on the tin (no pun intended), I'd consider one when I came to change my car. Big, 4x4 and electric.

It's very very ugly but considering I hate the generic curved inflated cars we have at the moment I don't really care. Learned to drive in 2011.
Bought a Micra - great little car
"Upgraded" to Kia Sportage - hated it
Proper upgrade to FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - tailgate paint issues, fuel gauge rewire, transfer box failure at 36k miles, clutch at 60k
Reconditioned diff at 70k ish
Sold at 84k and now on a DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental

I'm having difficulty seeing how that's ever going to meet EU pedestrian safety regs...

With all those angles, it looks a bit like a stealth bomber.

Is this intentional, so that other cars radar collision systems won't see it? FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

I quite like it. Bull bar, stuff bolted on top & lots of scratches down the sides no one will park next to you. The current batch of cars have no redeeming features. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

I’m pretty much sure there is something dark and really not nice about Elon.

Elon seems to be developing into the archetypal Bond Villain...

It would look quite nice with a 48 litre V12 marine deisel mounted in the rear. Not much boot space left though.

At nearly 20ft long, and 6ft 8 wide, you have to wonder where you'd be able to use it over here.
