Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

I saw a post a while back about improving the Cybertruck's looks with googly eyes.

The person in my neighborhood with a cybertruck, has in fact added googly eyes to his.

I've seen a fair number of wrapped ones (one has a cyberpunk rust motif, another is olive drab, and one has the green and fake woodgrain "Griswold Family Truckster" wrap.).

They're getting pretty common around here. I haven't towed one yet but it's going to happen.

$80-100k depending on configuration, $5-6k for the body wrap option

Some people definitely have more money than sense or taste.

Having said that even your basic F-150 is now $50K and up - you can pay $100K if you want to but I suspect most are in the $60K range. It's my belief that many truck owners don't need them for their ability to haul stuff. Many do of course. But if you are like the rest of us, for the two days a year you need a truck when moving your daughter to college or buying some drywall from Lowes, it's quicker and easier and much more gentle on the wallet to rent one. And most of the F-150 trucks my friends have will not take a 4x8 sheet!

A cybertruck is undoubtedly quick. But I am willing to bet that most are bought for status, like many trucks.

I have seen one leaving Lowe's with a load of lumber sticking out the back. But the bed is too short for loads even my Datsun can do. Mind you, 8' boards or sheets stick out of my Datsun as well. Now when I see a Cybertruck with a load of blackberry brambles held down with a tarp and a dozen bungee cords I'll be kinda impressed. But you don't even see that many pickups under 20 years old doing that.

I admit, I considered wrapping my Challenger.

Jeff Stahler, the cartoonist up above, clearly never participated in a Pinewood Derby. These are a tradition for Cub Scouts and one ages out at about 10.5 years.


Snailgate, former Den Chief, who never did a pinewood derby either.

Please tell me you didn’t consider wrapping it with the post assassination attempt “fight” photo op of the tangerine traitor? Like this cybertruck gifted to him by some right wing video game influencer?

I sold it 2+ years ago, so definitely not. No, the wrap would have been one of the yellow MFP cars (either the March Hare or Max's Interceptor) from Mad Max.
