    I’m one of those. Tesla already had a dubious reputation for quality but I was all-in on the incomparable hideousness of the Cyber Truck (because I’m weird)… but then he turned out to be a bigoted right-wing authoritarian chud and now I won’t touch anything he’s attached to.

    Here’s hoping Aptera makes it to market. Honestly, their product will be infinitely more practical than a Cyber Truck, anyway.

      Plus 1 on the Aptera! Electric is the future of personal transport, but not in the way it’s being implemented. Changing our current ICE cars to electric isn’t enough. They are too heavy. The massive batteries require special dedicated charging to charge in a reasonable amount of time. The Aptera is light and doesn’t need a huge battery, and doesn’t need massive charging current to charge in a reasonable amount of time.

      Same I’m a fan of the look of the cyber truck but fuck Elon. It’s the car of the future we were promised by all those old movies.
