As a design professor and an Industrial Designer w a background in automotive design, the Cybertruck offends me and irritates me on many levels. It would get you lambasted at any self respecting design school. It’s primitive, lazy, unresolved design that only works as a prop in a low budget sci fi B movie from the…

On the other hand, stick big googly eyes on it and you can pretend you’re in Stunt Race FX.

I really don’t get the hype around the Cybertruck. It looks terrible, cost a lot, and its capabilities are pretty meh. Everything about it screams form over function.

Maybe a little culty.

It’s a good gift card though, very functional for the buyer and has the highest resale in any other segment. 

“Either sheepish Americans just can’t imagine a life without their trucks as normal, or frightful Americans expect that the world at large will collapse and their leather-lined F-150 will help them ride out the apocalypse.”

I mean, fair, but counterpoont: fuck HOAs and they can burn in the pits of hell where they fucking belong.

Lol. Who wouldn't. Also til, the actress was in her 30s while playing ellie may. 

Never let it be said that I don't like strong female character. Donna Douglass nailed the role. 

Plus, Ellie May was considered desperately late in breeding age. That’s a catastrophe I could get behind.

Tbh, I'd love to live next to the clampetts. Never a dull moment. 

There are plenty of bed options to make it more trunk friendly if you need that. For general grocery runs and such the manufacturers now include a ton of in cab storage options as well. Plus you have the bedside boxes which only RAM really does right. The open bed nature of a truck allows for a lot more flexibility…

OH GOD THOSE PEOPLE! I agree completely, if I’m passing your new Corvette on the highway in a mid-range Hyundai, you should be legally required to give me the keys, you’re not qualified to drive it.

Thing about a truck that costs lets say 30 grand  after 150,000-200,000 miles its still as functional an appliance for those in construction as the day it rolled off the production line. They view these things as tools so no matter how beat to shit one is there is always some inherent value to that tool. When I went…

I was just comparing to the new default vehicle of choice. Either way modern trucks are the most capable vehicles on the road aside from the extra seating you may get in a van so I cant fault people for buying one.

I don’t know why even bother arguing. First, it’s Erik, who has almost universally terrible opinions.

Yeah, this.

Oh, please. It was the leftist governor here in CA that shut down the Emergency Mobile Hospital program Arnie had put in place EXACTLY because the Governator was worried about just such a pandemic.

Plus keeping the back of a van clean on a farm would be awful. Plus the need to tow shit around the farm.

Yeah, must vans can’t handle the ruts and dirty roads for the 200k miles of use.
