I heard you need to be very careful driving these things. Sometimes the screen tears if you take a corner too fast.

Plus the draw distance has to be insanely low, you might hit something.
My 6 year old son loves the shit out of that car. I wish it wasn't made by a twat CEO
My six year old son loves dinosaurs. 🤷
Obligatory favorite dinosaur go
Pterosaur because they fly!
Not a dinosaur, though.
True. On the other hand some of them looked like this, which overrides any argument:
Ah, so Jim Henson didn't die, he was just sent back in time.
Ankylosaurus!
Allosaurus gets no love.
My kid at 6yo loved eating peanut butter and mayo and drinking orange juice with Pepsi.
Fewer triangles than SNES Star Fox
I’m just playing F-Zero and eating government cheese with my purple drank.
I actually like the way the cyber truck looks. Shame it was made by a malicious idiot.
Agree. I know WHY most cars are suppository shaped, I just wish there was greater variety
That's the way I feel, I don't like the cyber truck but I'm glad it exists in a sort of homes Simpson car is possible sort of way
I want more manufacturers to come up with future forward designs. I just don’t want Elon to be involved in any of it

I think it looks like it's okay. It just goes way over the top at being edgy and different with no real benefit to the new design. I think cars designed the way they currently are, look boring, so I'm all in favor of going in a new direction but the cyber truck is just different for the sake of it, and not in a good way.
If you're going to design a new kind of vehicle at least keep the bits of the old design that actually made sense. A flatbed you can actually use, flat roof so you can fit roof racks on it for extra storage, make it out of material that perhaps doesn't rust, you know the basics.
Exactly, I remember seeing news articles like this and thinking "well all modern cars look similar, its not that creative of a design to 'steal'"
I didn't like it when it was revealed but the design has started to grow on me. Can't say I love it but I don't hate it either
I've spent too much time wondering about this design.
It looks like they really wanted to go for a futuristic look. The problem is they went for something that looked futuristic in the 1990's.
If I had rolled up to a Y2K party in a car that looked like it was straight out of, the Minds Eye, Beyond the Mind's Eye or the original Tron, it would have been badass.
Now it just looks like he couldn't get enough GPUs to render them with more polygons.
I wonder if the design was influenced by Elon Musk? That guy is a Gen Xer manbaby who is mentally stuck in the 1990s, especially after renaming Twitter as X.
of course it was. it screams stunted growth.
That's what confuses me. I'm a Gen Xer (whether or not I'm a manbaby is debateable) and that design just looks old to me. Not retro, not nostalgia inducing, just dated.
I'm pretty sure he renamed the company X just so he could make the logo on those Twitter post embeds look like they are the button to close the post preview. It looks like a modal close button, especially since they put it on the top right, but if you click it, it takes you to twitter, where you are immediately bombarded with pop-ups, login prompts, and just all-around general ass-hattery. Plus now you can't refer to anything generic as X without people wondering if you're talking about Xitter or not. It's dumb, and annoying.
I can respect someone wanting to make a vehicle with a retro-futuristic look. The problem is that the Cybertruck is so committed to its retro-futuristic look that it neglects being a working vehicle.

I knew I wasn't the only one thinking this trucks look like a pickup made by Saturn in 1992.
More like by Jupiter. Lol
If you ever had the misfortune of seeing these in the streets, theyre so stupidly ugly.
Even the wheels are ugly, I don't know WHY tesla wanted them to look like ABS plastic.
Tomb Raider Tiddies
Tired of hearing about this ugly thing
Show me the SNES graphics!
Sorry but in this case I trust the Cyber truck over the equinox for reliability. Underpowered engine, transmission made of glass, and that good ole GM electronic problem they always have? Nah I'll take the 10000lbs of absolute waste of money over the absolute piece of shit envoy or what ever they pretend to call their equinox.
The car in the picture is a GMC envoy right? Is that not the equinox rebadged?
That's a Traverse. Which is the same platform as the vehicle in OP's photo. It's a full size SUV, not a crossover like the Equinox.

I think it actually looks pretty cool from this angle. This is the first angle I've seen of the Cybertruck that I like.
