After months, I finally started seeing Cybertrucks in real life. I have to hand it to Elon and Tesla: there is some impressive design and engineering here. Specifically, they have created a vehicle that is impossible to photograph, because none of the pictures of this thing convey just how butt-ugly it is in real life.
The first time I saw one, earlier this month, was head-on, parked facing out in a parking structure, and my brain had a hard time resolving it as an object.
The second Cybertruck I saw was also head-on, but in motion, as its driver was turning way too fast into a supermarket parking lot, entering through the one-way exit lane I was trying to use to leave the lot.
Which, to be fair, is 100% on-brand for anyone who would consider owning a Cybertruck.
Das ist auch deshalb witzig, weil es ähnliche Listen für Tesla gibt. Und SpaceX hat auch schon viele Ankündigungen wegignoriert. Ich glaube die Boring Company auch.
Der Mythos von Elmo Musk basiert auf seinem persönl. Kultstatus, darauf, dass er ein sehr persönliches, inspirierendes Marketing macht mit großen Ideen, die Leute & Investoren bahnbrechend & cool finden.
