I think a local business owner has one because it's regularly parked on main street around here

Then for one day for no reason at all the cyber trucks rose up and...

Where’s the cuck it came with?!!

It comes with a cuck? Sign me up

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think that cuck's name is Whistlin Diesel.

It came off the assembly line cyber fucked

I saw one for the first time last week. It had like a weird brownish tint to it, I'm not sure if that was the lighting or metal discoloration or what but they are ugly AF in person.

I see like 10 a day. I work in an enclave city for the uberrich where the average new home being built costs what I make in a century (and I make pretty good money money), so we've got lots of them.

I've seen a bunch getting paint jobs. The matte black ones look like what scifi Nazi gestapo would drive, but all of the paint jobs look better than the bare metal. There's a brushed-gunmetal one that I think is a pretty attractive compared to the rest. The vehicle is still ugly, but it's less-ugly with a good paint job.

I love around Chicago.

Can’t wait to see what all the salt on the streets does to these things over the winter.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Likewise but I have yet to see one of these rust buggies in the wild. The rust will be absolutely hilarious though. I wonder how the wheel assemblies will handle the salt.

Considering how thin the control arms are for such a heavy vehicle, I think we’re gonna see a lot of 3 wheeled cyber trucks in the next 6 months.

Be sure to use protection.

Chicago women are the best.

Tow driver: Damn this thing looks like it went through the Iraq war.

Owner: I've had it for three weeks.

(Salesman) You can fit so many fingers in this here trunk! bangs metal

metal dents as if it were one of those disposable aluminum cooking pans you get at thanksgiving at the grocery store if you don’t have generational wealth

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

That's in pretty decent shape, actually. The metal is usually more rusted, especially if they tried to wash it in a car wash.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That looks badass! They lowered it! Can it jump?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

They drove it over the curb, through a fence, across a golf course, and into the water hazard by the 12th hole.

Nah I'm just kidding. It just hit a speed bump at 15 mph in a light rain.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 months ago

I've finally started seeing some in my city over the last week or so. They are just so goddamn big and awkward looking. They really look like someone put dumpster on wheels. I honestly find them pretty jarring to see out on the road.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

there is a hotwheels r/c version of the cybertruck I wanted to buy for memes, but so many reviews said it would burn out the first day you play with it... I should have bought one for the content (the price got jacked up)

My nephew has one, it actually works pretty well and we've played with it a ton.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago

So it's authentic you're saying?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

That’s about what they look like from the factory!
