    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 love around Chicago.

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

        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.

      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.
