Is there any vehicle in the world that screams rich asshole more than the cyber truck? There are more expensive vehicles for sure, but my first thought if I saw a Pagani wouldn't be to flip it off.

At least with other expensive cars you can admire the craftsmanship, elegant appearance, and significant history behind the brand or specific model of car. For the money, you get none of those things with a cyber truck.

People who care about such things aren’t Tesla customers. You need to have ultimate shallowness to spend money on Elon’s shitty products.

I can understand hitting the lottery and spending six figures on a luxury sports car. I cannot image why anyone would have voluntarily submitted themselves to this vehicle. Its the automotive equivalent of lighting six figures on fire.

I thought it was the automotive equivalent to letting six figures get rained on till it is ruined
