Isn't the fact that the thing is ugly and poorly-designed more of a deal-breaker?
I’ll bite. I don’t like the cybertruck, but I’d really, really love a car that doesn’t ding if you look at it the wrong way. The lack of paint is also one less thing to mess up.
I live in the mountains, and need to go over jeep trails to access part of my property. We are unbelievably hard on cars. I don’t care what it looks like, I just want to be able to beat the crap out of it.
I know this doesn’t apply to 99.999% of people, but just throwing out there that I have a different perspective in this area. Function over form is absolutely key for me.
Well you better hope you never ding the Cybertruck unless you want to replace an entire stainless steel panel and hope it aligns properly.
And the "bare stainless steel body panels" isn't a new thing on a production car.
Unsurprisingly they had a ton of issues with it back then too.
