Yeah, "super practical" seems like very curious way to describe a Cybertruck but glad you and your boss like it I guess.

The "very well built" comment also is a peculiar statement.

There's only 3800 of these delivered so far and there's literally hundreds of posts, pictures and videos of these abominations online showing the shoddy assembly and a flurry of technical issues.

It's very practical. It has quite a bit of function built into it. You just don't like it because you want to hate Tesla while it's still popular.

You are hilariously wrong on both counts, but do go on about this ludicrous, overpriced, poorly designed piece of shit being practical.

Tesla did show a lot of promise at first, but Musk has been running it into the ground trying to chase short term profits - it's objectively harmful to the company and their employees.

I think you're just defending it blindly because you're another ridiculous Musk fanboy, it is an objectively shitty truck. You can disagree and argue all you want, but that doesn't change anything - the truck is still an overpriced piece of shit.

I like your use of the word objective.

I have sat in driven and looked at the Cyber truck. I actually have real world objective observation of this car and I can tell you from first-hand experience that it is practical, well made and well designed.

What you are experiencing is subjective emotional responses probably tainted by whatever media you lurk around in.

I'm not arguing with you. I'm not disagreeing with you. I am telling you my experience and interpretation of the car, you are disagreeing with those statements and that is perfectly fine. It's your right not to like it even if you are dead wrong.

I also really like your ad hominem attack on me for being a Musk Fanboy (which I am not). Really sets you apart from the bandwagon.

But do go on blindly pointlessly hating something you know nothing about.

Excellent. Thank you for your capitulation. I'm happy that you agree with my assessment.
