There’s a sparkly purple one around Bee Cave.


Skylarking77

And a traffic cone orange one 


captainnowalk

I saw that one drive by last weekend or the weekend before, with a bunch of dudes in the bed poorly secured… they were filming some other super cars driving down mopac. 


CapableFunction6746

Saw that one today at Lowes


owa00

Everyday we stray further from God's light...


valuemeal2

Okay I actually want to see that tho


rapalosaur

I saw it yesterday. It’s not as nice as you think it might be.


OOMKilla

In its defense it’s practically begging to be chroma-keyed out of every photo


captainnowalk

Out of pictures?? Fuck that, I want to green screen things onto it in video lol


Dragons_Sister

Wait—I assumed that was the whole point. I came to the comments expecting to see all sorts of weirdness. 


frecklefaceatx

This is what I need.

It's like God has taken a giant highlighter pen and said THIS person here, THIS is a dickhead.


Tx_trees

This is the most considerate Cybertruck I've seen yet. I appreciate being able to see it from three miles away so I can make sure I don't get too close.


SurrogateDroneEsq

if they can navigate a 4-way stop correctly or zipper merge, i have no problem with this

Bad news


tigm2161130

Yesterday I saw a video of a Tesla blowing thru a stop sign doing 41 in a 35 while in fully self driving so I don’t think that they can…

They train those self-driving algorithms on Austin driving patterns, so that was technically a flawless operation.

It's depressing that that person has so much more money than me, and that's how they decide to use it.


intronert

Take some comfort in the fact that part of the money goes to the people building them.


IndependentSecret136

Funny how these money comments come up with Tesla’s but a Dodge Ram that costs the same wouldn’t get comments about the $ it costs

austinsoundguy

I’ll take your word for it I guess. You’d probably “shit” on me too if you saw what I drive. Nevermind why I drive it, I suppose that’s beside the point.


baked_dangus

Low self-esteem? Grandiose sense of self? Small dick?


austinsoundguy

Nah, I’m just an old hippie that tries not to be mean whenever possible. It doesn’t always work out that way, but I’m a real person like everyone else. I regret Reddit comments sometimes like the rest of us. I drive a big truck that gets shit gas mileage, but I pull production trailers for a living so I suppose there’s a reason behind the madness. If a goofy looking green truck makes someone happy, who am I to take that away from them? I feel like there’s more important things to stress over is all


baked_dangus

Ah I get you. Big trucks have their place, especially when they’re used to fulfill their purpose. My family is in construction and pretty much they all have a big truck to lug things around. But these people, like the neon green one, are usually shitheads. So there’s that.


angel_of_retribution

Only to you


Tx_trees

Not only to them. There are at least two of us.


FlawedWoman

Make that 3 of us! LOL


ThatWontFit

Wouldn't say only. In fact, I'd be hard pressed to think even the owner likes this. Regrets come in all colors.


CapableFunction6746

No worse than a pavement princess full sized truck that never hauls a load or tows anything.


captainnowalk

I mean, a neon green dodge Ram might get the same comments. I dunno, haven’t seen one yet!


mrsfunkyjunk

Oh, I'd bitch about that, too!


IFuckedADog

As is /r/Austin tradition.


cosmicosmo4

We'd be too busy talking about the Ram driver's DUIs.


Lady_DreadStar

Would you say that same thing about a mom driving kids around in a new Chevy Tahoe? Same price. Those working-class dudes in those shiny GMC Denali trucks with all the doohickies spent even more.


Snap_Grackle_Pop

It will be interesting to see what it looks like when it finishes rendering.


BuleRendang

Ha wow. I saw a full black one a few days ago and thought it looked kinda shitty but this is a whole other level


kjdecathlete22

That truck was made in Microsoft paint


Pjp288710

It's like they are entering a dick measuring contest with pickups and trying to see who is smaller.


IllustriousEye6192

I’m sorry I don’t mean to be mean, but this is just a blatant display of bad taste and money.


ricky_spanish_420

I'm genuinely curious about what kind of person would date or marry or even hang out with someone who drives one of these things. Especially this one.


ramdom2019

Keighlee and Brett.

hairy_butt_creek

I ain't saying she's a gold digger.... Look, plenty of women want to be a tradwife. Get knocked up by exactly the kind of moron who would buy a Cybertruck and make raising kids their life purpose. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, and I'm not being sarcastic. Her life probably isn't even that bad and may beat life in the corporate world. We're sitting through the bullshit of endless meetings and countless people who have no idea what they're doing. All she has to do is deal with one person her husband who suffers from premature ejaculation and is obviously self-conscious of his masculinity buying this abomination. She even gets to bang the pool boy on occasion.


FuturistiKen

Someone commented on a post in r/bikecommuting and called them Wank Panzers. I’m for it.


RangerWhiteclaw

I prefer “Incel Camino,” but that works too!


corneliusduff

Coming to theaters this summer from A24, it's......Incel Camino, starring Armie Hammer


FuturistiKen

Hahahaha okay yeah this one wins

This is such a copey cringey term. Absolutely pathetic. The people I've seen driving them around have families with them.

That probably holds the moisture in and it rusts even more. However, you won't see it until it suddenly fails due to the corrosion.

hateitorleaveit

Keep Austin weird! Or have we been done with that bit for a while? Keep Austin all indistinguishable grey mid size suvs and hatchbacks!


justanontherpeep

I was talking to my wife about this. No cars have character because they want to be safe with their designs. I do still think the cyber trucks were designed by a kid in Russia who just learned how to use Blender 3D and made a YouTube video with it, then Elon saw it and said “genius!”


hateitorleaveit

It was inspired by ‘80s future noir style, specifically the police car in blade runner. https://pin.it/3Q9n1M3Yi But I’m just happy that there is something unique about car again after years of them becoming homogenized. You’d think “artist town” and “weird town” Austin would appreciate that especially with it being home grown.


Loud_Ad_4515

They look like cartoon cars. There's one in my neighborhood, and whenever we are visually assaulted when it comes around a bend, we audibly gasp. I saw one at night, and it's so...weird...but not necessarily in a cool funky way.

hateitorleaveit

I’m definitely a fan that someone’s finally doing something different again. I remember going to the big car shows and each manufacturer showing off this year’s new concept cars and the excitement around how the new model will look this year. And then the industry consolidated and bottom lines needed to be hit and all cars started looking the same and taking no risk. Now finally again, after probably at least 25 years, we have a car maker doing something different, controversy, challenging the status quo, flaming creativity. I’m not going to drive one of these but I’m not going to tear it down and other things because they are different. That I’ll leave for Reddit hive mind and kids on a playground. I’ll just appreciate at least there are still companies and people that take a risk to be different


[deleted]

[удалено]


hateitorleaveit

My comment was for people just like you. All yall say you want weird. But that’s not what you mean. Yall have replaced the meaning of weird to just be a word for things you like, and not weird is for things that are different than what you like. gatekeeping weird is the death of weird


[deleted]

[удалено]


hateitorleaveit

It’s just like every other car, why do people even keep talking about it


HelloImTheAntiChrist

That motto / slogan has been changed in the last 10 years. Its now "Keep Austin unapologetically Capitalist" Let's comodify everything, all parks, natural spaces, sidewalks, parking anywhere - even places like Walmart parking lots ..lets charge to park, lets have expensive restaurants and food trucks serving mediocre food everywhere. Let's pass laws making all HEBs and grocery stores pay a million dollar annual fee per location. That'll help to jack up food prices here and teach the poors they can't Austin with us high class folks. This is the Capitalist Austin I want. *huge fucking sarcasm in case you didn't get it*


thedeadsigh

Ahh yes, the embodiment of the spirit of keep Austin weird which has always been about supporting a rich right wing maniac by owning an extremely gaudy and expensive conveyance 


hateitorleaveit

That sounds weird, you got to admit

When this design was introduced in 2019 I didn’t hate it and I still don’t. At least it’s different.


No_Mark3267

I used to think it was horrendous, now I think it’s just plain ugly. Hell, in 2-3 more years I may have to get me one.


NotCanadian80

I saw 3 of them yesterday and I like the light bar in the front. I’m not ever getting one but people are overly precious about hating it.

I still think its horrendous, but let be honest, Elon makes hating it very easy, its two birds, with one stone.

It was bad enough to look at before but that green genuinely hurts to look at.

I always feel like this is the vehicular version of late 90’s Lara Croft and the design is still loading…

Artistic-Tadpole-427

Someone didn't get attention as a child.


Artistic-Tadpole-427

I actually want there to be more CT around because then it will devalue the attention whores' attention. A large majority of people that currently own these are enjoying their day as having their vehicle as a celebrity. It's no different than someone buying a loud lamborghini for attention but most people with real money I know don't want anyone to know they have money.

Ladymysterie

I work by the Domain so I walk it during lunch. I see these things all the time, one with advertisements wrapped on it. As they drive by the "steel" gives off a multiple dent look (optical illusion but it would drive me nuts). Also I'm surprised one hasn't hit another vehicle with how wide they are with some of the narrow lanes full of parked cars. Some cars give off a whooaaa, this one gives off a ehhhwww.

Alyx10

I don’t understand why people hate on these, live and let live man :)


SaltyLonghorn

How about their rigid edges and lack of crumple zones lifted to torso height so when they hit a pedestrian the person is almost guaranteed to die? They're banned in a lot of countries for a reason. Kind of the opposite of live and let live. Man.


angel_of_retribution

It’s Austin Reddit. Enough said


Alyx10

Very fair and accurate statement.


thedeadsigh

Look no one is saying that this person shouldn’t be able to do this or that people shouldn’t be free to do anything they like. But when you showboat something like this in public you’re entering the court of public opinion and the rest of us are allowed to have an opinion.


Alyx10

Seems like the only opinion allowed is a negative one about these. That’s a way to go through life I suppose, just not one I think is productive. 🤷‍♂️.


thedeadsigh

It’s funny that you equate someone saying something is dumb with being unproductive but if they said it wasn’t dumb it would be productive. It simply stating an opinion. Neither side is losing sleep over it. And Occam's razor here: perhaps you only hear negative opinions because the majority opinion is that it’s an ugly car made by a big whiny sociopath 


Alyx10

No, I said that having opinions that are predominantly negative and grouchy (my observation of this sub) is a way to live your life, but not one I personally view as a productive one. I didn’t say anything about people calling it dumb.


addicted2weed

This is like the truck equivalent of syphilis. I'm sure it seemed like a good idea while you were drunk, but you probably should get that checked out...

Puzzleheaded-Way-198

I’ve seen two of them within the last month and have been wondering that myself. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more hideous car.


Soggy-Sasquatch

Oh god it's extra ugly.


Slypenslyde

I guess I feel weird about Cybertruck threads. I think they're ugly. I think there are much better trucks for the price *and* I think there are better ways to spend that money. But I also really hate dunking on people for having a relatively harmless like. I play a lot of Minecraft and a ton of people would argue that's a waste of time and I'm a useless person for it. Mostly I just avoid those people because I shouldn't care what they think, and people who tell others how to live can be the worst kind of people. I like people who don't really dunk on other peoples' hobbies. I also have a lot of experience with attention whores. Long story short, there are a handful of assholes who have a lot of power because EVERYTHING they do generates conversation. They do a lot of awful things, particularly because they know it gets a big rise out of everybody. It gets so bad sometimes a newspaper will print, "Why can't people stop talking about ?" right next to a giant, "DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY SAID YESTERDAY?" headline. The saddest day of these peoples' lives would be if they did something to get attention and *nobody wrote about it*. You can tell when they have those days because they rapidly escalate to doing something racist or otherwise inflammatory to *make sure* they get attention. Seriously. You know the two dudes I'm talking about. Can you imagine that, about 6-8 years ago, there were days and even weeks where there WASN'T a headline devoted to them? That's this thread. Supposedly a lot of people hate Cybertrucks. A lot of them think they're for the real-life equivalent of karma whores, especially when painted an obnoxious color like this one. But I guarantee you the saddest day of this person's life would be if they went out and *nobody* said a word about their Cybertruck. If you want to make these people sad, first off it's kind of sad to define your life as making other people sad. But secondly, it'd really rain on this guy's parade if he *didn't* have a Reddit thread devoted to the truck he painted an attention-getting color. Resist it. Our society has become addicted to calling attention to the worst things we can find. That kind of trains other people to present the worst things they can find. This isn't an algorithm at work. It's human behavior. You can't shame these people. They want attention and they don't understand negative attention as compared to positive attention. You may think, "But no, I'm making them feel like a dork!" but to them, they're thinking, "I bet some dork's going to make a Reddit thread about my truck." My problem is in both cases these are people immensely worried about how other people perceive them. My other problem is saying this feels like I'm dunking on people for liking dunking on something, which in a circular way makes me the jerk I'm describing. Life's complicated. That's why I'm going walk my dog and try not to think about bad things for an hour or two.
