God damn is that thing ugly as fucking sin. It’s like they went out of their way to make it as fucking ugly as possible.

It's kind of cool in a retro futurism kind of way but no shot I'd be rolling around in that thing.

I unironically like it.

However, it does need to have an automated machine gun turret to actually tie the aesthetic together.

I hate Elon Musk and I still like the cybertruck.

I'm ashamed but I'd probably buy one and be happy with it, 100% in the city, doing mostly light hobby work, towing a boat, or locally camping.

Don't hate him enough to not fork over a ton of cash to his pocket for the uglymobile

It looks like it came from the Battlestar Galactica 1980s tv series prop collection. Should come with a robot dog.

It has worse aerodynamics than a Jeep Wrangler, too.

It has worse aerodynamics than a double wide getting pulled down the freeway.

How do you have worse aerodynamics than two bricks stacked on top of each other
