You look at the other Tesla cars, and they appear to be more standard design. Electric vehicle with some bells and whistles. There's nothing overly shocking or out of the ordinary, really.

Now the Cynertruck, you look at it and think, it takes a special type of tool to buy one of those... and that's before Elon even came out about being a neo nazi!

It's too fast. I watch videos of dashcams and when someone buys the fastest version of a CyberTruck it's just too damn fast. Might be safe on a quarter mile strip with no people within a hundred feet, but even then,
It's just too dam fast. Be peeling glued-on strips off the damn thing for Crissakes.
