Honestly the whole thing is funny in an unintentional way, critical support to Elon.

Buying a car that looks straight out of a ~~PS1~~ 80s mac game, that has uncovered stainless steel panels like the coked-out failed DeLorean, no crumple zones, a shatterproof window that shatters in the live demo, on top of the whole Tesla cult pay-pig thing is funny all around.

Usually things are focus-grouped, which is why all SUVs look the same. The cyber truck is the most likable thing Elon Musk has done in my eyes.

If it was slightly more competent I would actually want to drive a car that looks like a PS1 pre-render. But maybe I just watched too much ReBoot as a kid.

I saw a DeLorean the other day and it looked a lot better than a cyber truck.

Also fuck me cars have become huge.

Cars have become huge, but tbf the DeLorean is pretty small, I guess because it's supposed to be a sports car (lol).
