I wonder if people realize how much worse the cyber truck will look without $5000 tires.

I'm not sure it's possible to look any uglier than it already does. It blows every other ugly car out of the water with its unfathomably hideous looks.

For myself, I don't care. The only time I see my car is for about 90 seconds a day when I get into it or out of it. I'm not trying to impress anyone.

That said, I'll never buy a tesla as long as Musk profits from the sale. Fuck that nerd.

I call it the Electric Edsel lol. I honestly wonder if it's going to get pulled off the streets for field of view issues w/ the pillars and unsafe geometry - those corners look like pedestrian manglers.

Even if it came with the $5k tires, US truck culture mandates replacing brand new factory tires with a brand new set of $5k non-factory wheels and tires, so it's a wash.
