I don't know how to explain it, but it absolutely is. I saw my first a week or two ago, and was taken aback by how off-putting it is visually. I thought maybe it'd have an awkward charm, but no, it's just physically uncomfortable to look at.
What struck me was how ungodly huge it is, for basically no reason. There was one outside of Costco with people trying to get some huge thing to fit in the bed. It didn't go well. They already had it loaded by the time I walked into the store and they were still there putting ratchet straps on it when I left 30 minutes later.
It's aggressively ugly
It's like looking at a texture that hasn't fully rendered or something, just visual blur despite the sharp edges
I saw one in person the other day and physically uncomfortable is a good description. I was trying to describe it to my friends who have only seen pictures and I couldn't stop laughing because it's so much dumber looking in real life. Really just horrible.
