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 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.
Not to mention that putting supposed bulletproof windows on a vehicle that you may need to break a window to get out of after an accident because everything is electric instead of mechanical, is retarded. Oh, and drive by wire steering from a company with a reputation for glitchy software, and hardware? The thing is a death trap.
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.
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.

of course it was. it screams stunted growth.
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
