I regularly see 2 on my commute. I wouldn’t exactly notice that I have a similar commute to other people, but a Cybertruck sticks out.
1 of them has been painted a matte black that looks like a chalkboard (good luck to them when the road salt comes out) and the other is the regular finish.
Either way, I’m always thinking about just how fucking dorky the things look compared to everything else on the highway.
And it’s not like they’re using it for anything cool. They’re both just stuck in the same traffic as the rest of us.
The raw stainless steel doesn’t help. Just painting or wrapping it makes it look like a real vehicle. It’s still off, but it’s no worse than the cube, Aztec, or other odd cars.
Turns out that normal cars have paint jobs and a clear coat finish for a reason. For raw stainless steel, everything from road salt to bird poop is very bad if not cleaned off quickly.
I think the cyber truck is a fascinating piece of antiart. It looks like something Homer Simpson would design.

Homer Simpson is an influential car designer; we have him to thank for all these cup holders.
