    My boss just got this truck. Aside from it being severely over priced it’s actually very well built and super practical and usable for light and medium light duty. Even some short distance towing.

    Although for most people that can afford this thing I doubt there will be any kind of duty being performed by this truck at all.

      Yeah, “super practical” seems like very curious way to describe a Cybertruck but glad you and your boss like it I guess.

        The “very well built” comment also is a peculiar statement.

        There’s only 3800 of these delivered so far and there’s literally hundreds of posts, pictures and videos of these abominations online showing the shoddy assembly and a flurry of technical issues.

          Lol. That’s literally every single car ever made.

          I once saw a video of a guy crucifying a Toyota Camry. Conversely Ford has the most number of recalls for 2023.

          German luxury cars blow out their turbos at 40k miles and are so over engineered that most mechanics don’t even want to work on them.

          And Chrysler products are pure shit.

          I’m pretty sure at this point people just like trashing Tesla just because it’s popular.

          It’s a decent truck… If you just want to hate it because you feel superior juxtaposed to your inability to afford one then I suggest finding a job that will allow you to purchase extravagant things.

        It’s very practical. It has quite a bit of function built into it. You just don’t like it because you want to hate Tesla while it’s still popular.

            I like your use of the word objective.

            I have sat in driven and looked at the Cyber truck. I actually have real world objective observation of this car and I can tell you from first-hand experience that it is practical, well made and well designed.

            What you are experiencing is subjective emotional responses probably tainted by whatever media you lurk around in.

            I’m not arguing with you. I’m not disagreeing with you. I am telling you my experience and interpretation of the car, you are disagreeing with those statements and that is perfectly fine. It’s your right not to like it even if you are dead wrong.

            I also really like your ad hominem attack on me for being a Musk Fanboy (which I am not). Really sets you apart from the bandwagon.

            But do go on blindly pointlessly hating something you know nothing about.

                Excellent. Thank you for your capitulation. I’m happy that you agree with my assessment.

      Yeah it’s funny the hate they get on here, every single person I know that’s been in a tesla on FSD has said it’d brilliant, there are endless videos of people in love with their cybertrucks that show in detail why they like it. But no, ‘i saw one go past and could just tell it was low quality’

      Personally it’s not for me, it’s too big and intense even if I could afford it, it’s not a disaster though and if people like it then it’s good because they’re the people that’d probably have a massive ICE truck instead. I honestly think the people hating on it are reaching into cope territory, scratching them because they’re desperate to make them fail like they predicted.

      It’s just another product on the market, people should hype up good alternatives and help them grow if they want to ‘fight elon’

      If you think that’s very well built, you must not know a lot about cars and probably need stronger contacts

        I suppose you’re an automotive engineer then?
