aluminum frame, steel skin. they put the horse in the cart and had the fare-payers pull the whole thing lolol
I swear most of you are just assholes looking for manufacturer moral justification to bully people.
As a man I’ve been patiently waiting my entire life for the general population of women to realize they can shame men into not being stupid assholes. I don’t think men on the whole are going to like it…but it’s been a long time coming. See: history.
He laments people laughing at him, and likens his purchase of the cybertruck to that of the Toyota Prius. Unfortunately, what he fails to consider, is that the Prius is an economy car. You can make fun of a crappy car, but that mockery ends before it affects the owner, because the majority of us understand that buying a car is more of a financial matter, rather than one of taste. i.e. most of us buy the car we can afford, not necessarily the car we want.
That goes out the window when you take into consideration the cybertrucks price tag. If it was an economy electric car (like the Prius), we would poke fun at the vehicles design and that would be it. But this is a bloated, over-priced, unreliable, gimmick truck; whose only purpose is to serve as an ego-boost to one of the richest, dumbest men on the planet. The man that got bullied into buying and abruptly tanking one of the largest social media companies in the world. The same man jumping around like a pick-me dipshit at a fascist rally for a convicted felon, bankrupt businessman, convicted rapist, and self-described sex-pest.
People can laugh at not just the cybertruck, but also the owner; because paying what amounts to a third of a fucking house so you can fanboy a man sure to go down as one of histories most public dumb-asses, makes you ripe for ridicule (and deservedly so).

Hey, Memericans, do Apple next.
Agree 100%. Also, re. “a third of a house”; I bought an old (1941) but comfortably livable 2 bedroom house with garden and driveway in Columbia, South Carolina for only $86k last year. Most of the cyberfuck owners paid MORE than my house for their dumb cars…
well said, kudos
He’s bought a status car and spent ~$70k extra on it in order to get a reaction. Not sure what he’s whining about.
Probably because he expected for that sort of money for the only reaction to be people jizzing themselves
I suppose that’s… kind?
My opinion of Musk has nothing to do with it. For the price of it, its ugly as fuck.
I’m not a fan of priuses either, but priuses don’t a) take wild swings in design in order to be “edgy” and b) price themselves according to supposed “cool points”.
With or without Musk, your choices reflect who you are. This guy bought an overpriced vehicle in order to be “cool” and now he’s butt hurt that no one agrees with him.
“I drive the equivalent of a 2024 Yugo that is laughably poor quality sold by a huckster and I paid enough to buy 4 reasonable cars. It’s the most gaudy design of any car ever produced since the dawn of time. Why would people laugh at me?”
He says “a female”, then “a guy”.
No wonder they’re laughing. This guy’s a joke.
Anytime they say female, but don’t specify the species, you get to pick.

…he’s talking about two different drivers.
We are all aware. The terminology used for the two different drivers is the problem. You don’t call a woman a female, that’s insulting. He had no problem to call a guy a guy, no “male” or such. It makes him sound like a misogynistic asshole.
Oh, gotcha.
…oh boy. I’m guessing you call women females if you missed that one.

Kinda funny heh
“Stupidity” would be the answer to both why he bought a cybertruck and why he wonders why people are laughing about his choice.
Granted, she could have been having a weird reaction to a stroke or something,
Bless your heart
Man, I sure wish cybertrucks had been around to deflect when I spent 7 years driving a Fiat Panda.
James May? Is that you?
Great News! There’s a new Dacia Sandero!
He chooses what to drive. If he likes it, that’s his right. It’s also right of the others not to like it and find it ridiculous. There is no objective reason to drive a Cybertruck except to show off. Well, it backfired for him.
Jesse, on his part, suggests Elon Musk’s controversial nature is to blame for the people laughing at him.
While I’m sure that’s part of it, mostly it’s just the fact that you blew 6 figures on a poorly assembled low res rust triangle
Exactly, few people are laughing at people in any other tesla. It’s specifically this vehicle because it’s a impractical hunk of junk AND ugly as fuck.
I was taking a right turn out of a convenience store driveway the other day, waiting for the traffic to go by, and noticed the driver, a female, was apparently laughing hysterically at my truck. She was alone, pointing at my truck and laughing hard.
a female
Yeah, sounds like a Cyber truck owner
It seems like there’s a correlation between people that refer to women as “females” and people that don’t treat women well.
It’s almost like using a term typically reserved for livestock betrays that you see women as below you.
Nah, don’t lump farmers and such into this, please. Cows and bulls, hens and roosters, nannys and billys, sows and boars. There are also words for modified gender/castration similar to agender: steer, stoat, gelding, bellwether.
Depending on the situation it can be fun to ask, “A female what?” Try to get them to say human.
I’m almost sad I’ll never be able to point and laugh at one. The Cybertruck is so badly built, it’ll never be allowed on European roads.
That’s a big reason I shake my head at them when I see one. Brescia that are an affront to the collective safety of the rest of us.
I cycle (though at this point I try to stay off busy roads and on divided lanes), and the thought of a collision with one of these is terrifying.
I shake my head at jacked up bro dozers the same way. They all scream insecurity.

From “Keith” in the comments, “You bought a Cyber truck because you wanted attention. You’re getting attention. What’s your beef?”
Couldn’t agree more
