Unsurprisingly the Muskrat lied about everything else too

Calling it now, it will run at least $85,000 ($90,000 to activate the heated seat feature that is already installed in the seats) once they actually start making them, and running over a pothole in one will instantly shatter the spine of the driver and front passenger
Yeah, but the cheap $60,000 dollar ones are still a ways off.
I hate that I love it so much. Too many vector graphics video games when I was a kid.
We are together in our terrible taste in aesthetics.
I have an affinity for the aesthetic it’s trying to have, but it doesn’t actually succeed at hitting that look anyway. From most angles it looks like a shitty cardboard Halloween costume version of itself.
really? it like a shitty mark up of a sedan. I don’t understand who this is supposed to appeal to
Me, apparently
Love the honesty
People who like polyhedrons
of course it is. All the chuds talking about getting this while driving their beatup pickup trucks will be in for a rude awakening.
I doubt they’re the ones cooming over this vehicle. Judging by the crowd of fanboys that paid out of their own pocket to attend this release party they are rich techies. And the market for vanity trucks costing over 80k in the US is huge and growing every year. Just in my apartment complex alone, there are now TWO Ram TRXs crowding our small parking lot. That is a $100k 700 hp truck with no practical utility for actual work.
but think of all the fun art you can scrawl on the sides with your keys
In their defense idk if there’s anything chuds love more than going into debt so they can drive a giant useless pickup truck they absolutely do not need.
Spend fucking 90k to walk away with a 4 foot bed that’s so deep you can’t reach anything un it without climbing into it
It’s poetically ironic how much the upper-middle-class will spend all that money just to look like us poors.
From the white-collar suburbanite that calls himself a ‘redneck’, to the CHUDs with sparkling pickups, I like to refer to them as ‘cosplay cowboys’. What’s worse is that they’re making their LARP somewhat real, look at how much cities, especially walkable cities are rapidly gentrifying, while the wasteful consoomery suburbs that cosplay cowboys prefer are now the closest thing to a place where us poors can live.
So in some sense, suburbs are where both the rich and poor live together for wildly different reasons.
Looks like the rover in moon patrol for the 2600
I’m pretty sure there are some drawings in my parent’s attic of this exact vehicle that I drew in 3rd grade.

At that price it better come with an animatronic Don Knotts that drives it for you.
It’s more like $61k, but I’m honestly surprised he didn’t make it start at $69,420
That’s reserved for the prememium model
Did you just invent ‘meme-ium’?
I can’t have been the first to add two letters to premium lol. Too many keyboards being smashed away at.
I can imagine a couple guys in Tesla’s marketing department talking about it.
“Elon’s putting out a premium model at $69,420.”
“That sounds about right for his middle school mindset.”
“It has a WeedHolder and a SexButton among other features.”
“Really? Or did you make that up?”
“Yes.”
That would be in keeping with all these HECKING EPIC features Teslas have: https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/modelx/en_us/GUID-79A49D40-A028-435B-A7F6-8E48846AB9E9.html
I wonder what percentage of Tesla drivers follow this warning.
Warning
Use these features only when Model X is parked. Always pay attention to road and traffic conditions when driving. Using these features while driving is illegal and very dangerous.
Surely they don’t work when you’re driving?
Fun can come in surprising ways. Select your preferred fart style and target seat. Use your turn signal or press the left scroll wheel when you’re ready to “release” your prank. For those lucky vehicles equipped with a Pedestrian Warning System, you can choose to broadcast externally when your vehicle is parked. But wait-- the fun doesn’t stop there! Use the mobile app to conduct remote emissions testing by touching and holding any of the four quick control buttons and selecting the fart button.
God fucking damn it.
So it has a virtual whoopie cushion under each seat. I don’t even know anymore, man. I’m going to bed
This is from the mind of a 50 year old who many consider some kind of supergenius.
Sex mode would be what he calls the button that lays the seats all the way back.
A built in bong would rule. Just hope the low quality assurance didn’t miss it getting contaminated with exhaust.
“Dude, disconnect your bong! I told you not to buy an Elon Truck!”
“What are you talking about?”
“This morning a guy in LA took a big toke and his lungs caught on fire and he died a horrible death. He was Tiktoking at the time. It went viral.”
“That would be a serious quality control issue if in fact—”
“It sounds to me that you need to be deprogrammed.”
Inb4 Elon creates a combustion model to deflect the narrative, the carb is located in the gas tank so you’re getting extra diesel while you smoke that diesel cuz we heard you liked diesel, dawg.
“Well, our market analysis returned: ‘lmfao, no one who spends more than a minute thinking about their purchases will buy this TRON looking truncated shit wedge’. So we decided to capitalize on their insights.””We decided to pivot to another tried and true marketing strategy: say that this garbage is so expensive because it’s meant for rich people, not some ordinary pleb.”
Though I also would buy the Homer.

Yeah but consider this: When you and your family die in an accident due to the lack of crumple zones, you can just use the intact cybertruck as a family coffin and save the cost of 4 seperate ones. The price makes total sense when you start thinking like a true businessman.
ahh but if the battery explodes on impact, you’ll also need to buy coffins
But when the fire department takes 5 hours to put the lithium fire out you get a free cremation
don’t people still put a coffin in the ground after a cremation? I was really confused when I learned that.
A proud and noble tradition for American industry.
Do you have a source for this quote? It is elusive and funny. American engineering.
I got it from the national interest link emizeko posted below, and I didn’t want to link to that rag. However, that sentiment pops up pretty regularly in actual history books by credible authors but I didn’t have any copies on hand.
Bruh at least Rivian makes shit that looks nice.
Seriously the only way this thing was going to compete with rivian was by being 20k cheaper.
Now it’s an uglier shittier less practical worse made vehicle for the same price with the added benefit of anybody who sees you in it is going to assume you’re a dumbass at best and a tool.
You could just get a king ranch at that price and have an actually working luxury truck with power to it
Should be to the surprise to no one, his cars are for rich techbros they’re luxury vehicles.
They very much are not luxury vehicles.
They’ve got panel gaps you can stick your hand in and a button to make fart sounds.
It’s a luxury vehicle as imagined by 6 year olds.
“Finally, the future will look like the future,” [Musk] said about the truck’s design
did you know that the future looks like some crap from a 1970s movie
In the same article it says the design was inspired by the aquatic car in a bond movie.
The future looks like the future, by which I mean a classic car from a 30 year old movie.
Imagine being so car brained that you think personal transportation, particularly one where every human drives a 9000 pound truck with 100s of pounds of rare earth metals mined by child slaves, is the future.
