Comment on Spit On, Sworn At, and Undeterred: What It’s Like to Own a Cybertruck

The blunt angles and steel doors look futuristic, for sure
Do they, though? It’s always looked to me like something from the background of a PS1 game.
Nah, it’s futuristic. It’s the embodiment of the future where car manufacturers sell you rust buckets full of tracking and make you pay way too much for it.
I’ve seen some wrapped ones that look neat though, and anyone who owns a Cybertruck and isn’t wrapping it is just wasting more money than they already did buying it.
I was irritated by this statement too, but the sentence continues with “but only if it looks like Robocop”.
I don’t know about the Robocop reference, but the author seems to agree that it’s merely pseudo futuristic. IMO in the worst, most absurd way possible.

In 1980, sure.
