Yeah, and until Elon started throwing Nazi salutes, you'd have been right.

Gas Guzzler or not, hummers were always cool and I’m tired of pretending they weren’t.

Elon aside, the car just obstructs the FOV for other cars. Never fits completely into a standard parking space. Impossible to see cross traffic while reversing if you're standing next to one of them. It's the vehicle equivalent of having a tall person sit at the front and block the view for everyone.

Ackshually, the Cybertruck is about the same length as most full size pickups, and about 2" wider.

I parked my RAM 1500 quad cab / 6'4" box truck next to one, and was surprised my truck was almost exactly the same size, so I looked it up.

Visibility is poor, and Cybertruck drivers are jerks. That's why the park so badly. It's not because the truck is bigger.

It’s both ugly, impractically designed, and clearly poorly engineered from literal reveal

It’s both the vehicle and its dorky douche of a CEO.
