everyone keeps calling him the richest man in the world but it is very important that we remember he is only the *second* richest, below bernard arnault of LVMH moët hennessy louis vuitton, who make things ppl actually want and like (booze and handbags)

isnt the CYBPRFRVKK supposed to launch today

yeah the event is happening now

xxpost Sorry he's listed as Bernard Arnault & Family-- that's like calling the Jackson 5 the top selling solo artist.

Elon most definitely looks like he's Cybering with his Truck in that photo

the real richest person in the world is me

true wealth is making good* tweets

*bad

A Cybertruck customer walked up to Elon and said "I haven't slept in three days" and Elon just said "okay"

That's fine. You can just turn on the self driving feature.

Even fans don't seem to be particularly happy with this launch. Range is a lot lower than expected, somewhere around 250 mi, and the price is a lot higher than people expected, $60,000 plus for the basic model, and if I saw correctly that one won't be out until supposedly 2025 or something. I am all in for the mocking.

my coworker: "They showed it beating a Porsche 911 on a drag strip, and it was towing a second 911!"
me: "OK"

as a few people have speculated something really does seem to happen to your brain when you spend so much of your life just pointing at a thing and immediately getting to have that thing. kinda fucked up that we've structured our entire society around capitalism and the dude who won the capitalism lottery turned into a miserable sack of shit who needs to be cranked out of his mind at all times

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

is $60000 the actual sticker price for the cheap version? there's something on there about the $7500 tax credit + "estimated gas savings" which makes me think the real price is more like $72000

250 miles is the range without any load. If it’s anything like the ford then expect half that for anyone who actually uses it as a truck (lol).

oh wait ok $60k is the actual price it's just listed at $49k to trick people

though it does say "estimated delivery price" and people probably aren't getting these for another 18 months so I'm assuming the price is gonna jump another $10k because that's what Tesla always does

haa

yeah best to play it safe and get an extender for your penis extension

Omfg from many posts ago i was now about snidely to type “welp that bed section is ‘ideal’ to carry more battery power,” but it is fucking what they actually are SELLING. i’m— i got nothing

as long as the mall is only 125 mi away it’s gtg already

I honestly thought the more ubiquitous they became the better people would get at identifying and avoiding scams but then I forgot that I'm an idiot

Not sure I'm gonna be able to resist constantly honking/flipping the bird at these things when I finally start seeing them on the road.

I don't think I'll be seeing them at all honestly I genuinely don't think there's a market for them

Yeah, I'm in the bay area...

our condolences

just remember, if you see one, do not acknowledge the driver in any way or look directly at the cybertruck unless necessary

At least not without those ridiculous solar eclipse glasses.

They make the cybertrucks out of slow glass. You can stare at them and watch the past.

"we are all andrew now"

feeling this so deep

Where we’re going, we don’t need … roads.

The ceremony started with Musk driving the truck on a stage in darkness and hopping into the bed to talk about it.

"It's the most unique thing on the road," he said. "Finally the future will look like the future."

John DeLorean would like a word

Finally the future will look like shit.

flux capacitor in the cyberturck checkmate bitch u got memed

John DeLorean would like a word

As would the people behind the Pontiac Aztek

when i consider the predictive accuracy of the aztek it freaks me out

every commute in that thing will end like, "dude you've blown the transaxle, you're just grinding metal...ease down."

Owners of Azteks were said to be highly satisfied.. I think there was even a camping tent that attached to the cargo area

when i consider the predictive accuracy of the aztek it freaks me out

Back in 2000 Fox had this dystopian Sci-Fi series with Jessica Alba & Michael Weatherly called Dark Angel (set in...2019), and instead of having a custom future car for Weatherly to drive, they had the genius idea to use new Azteks.

xps I used to work with a guy who used a wheelchair for whom the Aztec functioned well for getting himself and his chair in and out.

they look so normal by today's standards... headline of the accompanying article: The Pontiac Aztek: Who’s Laughing Now?

Universally panned and quickly discontinued, it’s clear that, almost 20 years on, the Aztek has made fools of us all.

https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/pontiac-aztek-rear-1585319857.jpg

lol yeah it does look normal, just another crossover

xps James Cameron’s Dark Angel, now on Fox

I don’t remember a whole lot other than Jessica Alba was in it, but I think a later season featured an animal-human hybrid cat person. Very prescient show

Discussion of the Aztek immediately makes me think of Breaking Bad. The choice of Walt's car was obvs given great thought.

for me it's the second season of Survivor, when Colby won this car and had to demonstrate all of its great camping features with his visiting Mom in the Australian Outback.
