Finally saw a Cybertruck

One of my clients just got one and brought it by to talk about a wrap. They should be extremely easy to wrap.

I think they’re pretty hard to look at, but then at the same time, kind of impressive in a sense of being different. Most electric vehicles look dumb in comparison to anything else.

The stainless was a mistake, but I’ve already been asked to wrap 3 of them, so I guess not. But if you look down the side of the panels, he showed me how wavy they are. No panels are flat, it looks like they just through stainless sheeting on the side.

Technology wise, they are coming a long way. But every Tesla I’ve had in the shop is super cheaply built.

 

I have seen a couple. The first one was jarring to see in the wild. The second was parked in short term at the airport. The third was a matte green wrap that really helped.

 

Shit I’ve seen like 10 of em at this point. Multiple wrapped. I can see a good stretch of I70 out my window though, and it slows down pretty regularly

 

Send pics

 

Last day of school today. I'll see if my wife gets the courage to get a picture lol.

Edit: Wife is not happy I shared this story. RIP.

2nd Edit: Wife asked to take down post of story. Out of love and respect, I have!

 

Smart man!

 

My cousin in Orange County has one. He had it wrapped in flat black. It’s still ugly.

 

Respect to her for not wanting that drama in her life.

 

I like the CT. I like to point it out even if I’m by myself.

 

And sooner or later, I’m sure some of the CT’s around here will be worth a second glance.

 

My youngest daughter and I were driving home and started to talking about the turn signals on Teslas. Then we saw a Cybertruck in a parking lot on the other side of the street. We both agreed that it looks way worse in person than any of the pictures that we've seen.

 

I want to like it.

I like everything about it.....except the looks.

 

It just seems to me like he's trolling everybody. Didn't the concept look way better?

 

Here, this is much better

The effort of putting a completely ugly vehicle to market and see how people react, is genius... F' it! Let's build this ridiculous thing! Elon is laughing all the way to the bank and knows people are going to buy them whether or not they are "attractive". I've seen several in person and they definitely catch your eye because of how different it is. The longer I look, the less inclined I am to like the overall look but still appreciate the uniqueness.

Good or bad, it's getting attention.

 

I just saw one driving by the village parking structure on the frontage road. It was kind of a dark turquoise. I was thinking that maybe it had been down at your shop.

 

Every time I see one I think of the F117 stealth fighter.

 

A good friend ordered on very early but his is to be painted white. Last time we spoke he hasn't received it yet.

 

Ugly ass thing, and electric, what’s to like?

 

I really like the custom patina wrap someone did to this one.

 

Are the slowdowns due to Teslas running out of "gas"?

 

Unfortunately, I see them all of the time. The Tesla Gigafactory is about 40 miles from here, the Boring Company and Space X something or other campus are about 20. I had one in front of me at our HEB grocery store and I wasn't sure if he was gonna make it over the speed bump... I also didn't know where the fuck he was gonna put his groceries. Maybe he was just picking up a sandwich...

 

Of the affair or the truck?

 

Urinal version is quite nifty when you need it.

 

Saw a matte black one at costco. It is hideous looking! People were snapping pics and I remarked that it was one ugly truck. Got some truculent looks my way....haha

 

Im up by Park City and have been seeing them for a month or so now. There are a few of them around, one guy lives by me so i see him a few times a week.

Its not as heinous in person as in photos, but still not really my cup of tea. Nor is any EV truck though.

 

Truculent...lol +1

 

Agreed with the unpainted part being a bad idea. The wrapped ones I've seen look a lot better.

Definitely an interesting concept, I'll be curious to see how it pans out

 

Saw this one today.
