The #Cybertruck, Tesla’s all-new electric pickup truck, is here, and it can take a sledgehammer to the door while nary a dent. The all-electric pickup will offer up to 500 miles of range and start at $39,000. https://t.co/7a8YBicIkC

As for the Cyber truck, saw one yesterday in the wild for the first time and agree they are fugly but maybe that's the unique charm of them. Looks like a vehicle you'd see in a 90s PlayStation 1 video game.
I saw my first one that wasn't on a car carrier on N. Oak in the Northland of KC. I wouldn't say I like it better seeing it on the road. It did turn my head and get my attention. [Reply]
Funny timing as my neighbor next door just brought one home and gave me the tour
Thing is giant up close
One cool feature is the suspension raises and lowers depending on what mode its in and everything is controlled from the console touchscreen from diagnostics down to opening the glove box
Admittedly the tech is pretty slick, but man, if you have OCD there's fingerprints all over it. Its not painted, its like a stainless steel refrigerator so if you touch it there's nothing but handprints everywhere
The kicker, especially if you've read my posts in the open carry thread...the cameras can be operated from an app even if its not running so "extra security" when parked outside the house...in this gated neighborhood :-)
Another cool feature is theres a built in cooler in the "bed" with a bottom plug drain. Elon must have at least one cool family member on the design input team [Reply]

Old man yells at cloud at cloud, but when I want to lean in and grab something out of the glove box..., that is not a feature. [Reply]

My 2006 Ridgeline has that. It's a technically a storage trunk in the bed but you can fill it with ice and drain it. [Reply]
I mean you practically have a flat screen tv in front of you with access to everything so its probably easier than reaching over and pulling a lever once you get used to it [Reply]
