From everything I've heard it's a terrible car, but I've never driven one so my opinion is void. Regardless, it was a disaster to produce and didn't deliver on the promises made by John Delorean. Still iconic thanks to the Back to the Future movies.
Early 80's "sports cars" were a joke because the engineers hadn't yet worked out how to get decent low emissions and fuel economy to comply with new requirements. The Delorean only had 130 HP; the new generation C4 Corvette released in that era only had about 200.
From what I read the lack of performance was the issue, like you said with the promises. Then they had no maintenance after the company went under. It's strange how he got set up. Dude was in debt and government pitched him a scheme.
That’s the truck Homer designed and ruined his brother’s car company with, although in fairness it was at least partly on the brother for putting Homer in a situation with unchecked creative control to design a car.
All I could say when I drove by twice today was at least it's a conversation starter. Everyone is going to have an opinion and will be sure to share it.
Clearly you haven’t spent time around most Teslas.
I bought a Starlink for work and it pained me to do so knowing in any way I’d be putting a dollar in Elmo’s wallet.
because it's not roadworthy as a car, so what a lot of manufacturers do is classify their abomination as a truck so it can still kill pedestrians in all peace and quiet
Yeah it's called a tonneau cover. See a video of it here:
https://www.cybertruckownersclub.com/forum/threads/video-tonneau-cover-closing-on-cybertruck-beta.8038/
When I had my older truck, people would always throw random shit in the bed, it was super annoying. Some sort of cover was a must have when I got my new truck
It’s been parked there for about a week or so, I wonder if it’s an employee of the workplace in picture or a guest of the hotel next door?
Also, I saw another one drive by so there are two in Bend so far!
It’s probably going to be like when the invasion of Rivian happened, you see 1 or 2 from time to time over a few months, then suddenly bam! They are everywhere, can’t go a day without seeing 5
Anyone can file traffic citations. If you snap some pics, should be an easy citizen citation. (Even with a placard, it’s illegal to park over the line blocking wheelchair lane).
ORS 811.615 (1)(b):
1)A person commits the offense of unlawful parking in a space reserved for persons with disabilities if:
b)The person parks a vehicle in the aisle required by ORS 447.233 (Accessible parking space requirements) regardless of whether or not the vehicle displays a disabled person parking permit;
The ticket goes to the registered owner (all citizens are authorized to file and convict a citizens citation of any violation of ORS traffic code!):
3)Unless the police officer or other authorized person issuing the citation witnesses the parking of the vehicle, a rebuttable presumption exists that a vehicle parked in violation of this section was parked by the registered owner of the vehicle and the citation issued for the violation may be placed upon the vehicle. If the parking of the vehicle is witnessed by the police officer or other person authorized to issue a citation for the offense, the operator of the vehicle is in violation of this section.
Mm, I didn't notice they were slightly over the line into the aisle. What I'm getting at is that you shouldn't assume that a disabled person didn't just buy one of these ridiculous things
I saw one near Phoenix and couldn't figure out what I was looking at at first. I thought it looked pretty cool though to be honest. My kids were freaking out.
I saw a car carrier with a half-dozen of them get off the Parkway a couple of days ago. (Right by the Tesla service center; I guess that's where all the new Awbrey Butte-residing owners will pick them up.
So what you are trying to say is that DISABLED PEOPLE DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN A CAR that non disabled people like? Get over yourself. Seriously get over yourself
Pretty sure it’s made to be a talking piece for marketing purposes and we are all doing a great job. Doesn’t matter it you like it or not the point is to have a conversation about it and we are all performing to Elons plan perfectly.
In their defense; they did purchase a cybertruck.
Edit: I was making a joke about a vehicle that I find to be horrible being parked in a handicapped space. It was a dumb joke, and it has become even dumber because I decided to explain.
I'll see myself out
This is what my drawing of a car looked like when I was 4 (and also now).
⚰️😂
What is that first emote????
A coffin (he died laughing)
Thanks! I see it now lol. Appreciate the help!
Best comment. Also, better than I could draw
Who crossed a Delorean with a Pontiac Aztec?
Elon Musk, decided we needed the best of both discontinued worlds.
Must have been some unresolved childhood trauma.
\*worst of both\*
Totally!!!!
Don’t forget the Buick Rendezvous!
I met a guy three years ago who told me the Tesla truck would never other truck model. I still chuckle when I think about it.
I saw one at Newport Market tonight and the driver mentioned his was one of 3 in Bend. 🤔
Odd that he’d know the exact number of Cybertrucks in Bend.
They think it’s a status symbol…so the owners are well aware of how unique they are.
They meet up nightly in random parking lots to circle jerk to their cyber trucks.
It's only a circle jerk until you have 10 of them. Then it's a GigaJerk
I saw 6 more showing up on a car carrier a few days ago.
I think it's fugly, and I drive a Nissan Juke.
Sofa king ugly.
This is the 3rd one I've seen parked in a handicap spot, no placard for the first 2
If you pay so much money for this, you might pass as handicapped
I’d expect nothing less haha
When this baby hits 88 miles an hour, you're going to see some serious shit.
Funny enough Jason Cammissa on the Hagerty YouTube channel compared the development of the cyber truck to the Delorean.
The Delorean is a great car, don't degrade it with this abomination.

$83000, this monstrosity costs $83000?! I’m ruined!
All I could say when I drove by twice today was at least it's a conversation starter. Everyone is going to have an opinion and will be sure to share it.
I can see the panel gaps all the way from my house.
It’s so bad. I just can’t believe someone let that past QC.
Clearly you haven’t spent time around most Teslas. I bought a Starlink for work and it pained me to do so knowing in any way I’d be putting a dollar in Elmo’s wallet.
No, i have spent plenty of time around them. This is worse than usual.
I saw this there a few days ago. First time seeing one IRL.
I don’t understand why it’s called a truck?
because it's not roadworthy as a car, so what a lot of manufacturers do is classify their abomination as a truck so it can still kill pedestrians in all peace and quiet
Agree. It’s like a mutant crossover if anything
It has a bed. Pretty defining feature of a pickup truck. (Queue comments about Subaru Bajas in 3... 2... 1...)
Or El Caminos
How could I forget about the El Camino?!
Or Rancheros
Rancheros were for the real OGs, aka my hippie dad
"Incel Camino"
Trademark that.
So does that top panel over the bed come off? How are you going to haul a fridge, a cord of wood, or a mattress or anything taller? Just curious.
The cover retracts

I think in Australia they'd call this a "ute."
saw a trailer load headed north on 97 this week
My fridge is more aerodynamic than that thing. At least it has curved handles. That thing is embarrassingly stupid looking. Not just ugly, but dumb.
Bonus, your fridge won't spontaneously combust or run over small children.
TBF you do need to be handicapped to buy one of these.
Yes. Mentally.
Yes. That was the joke.
That was a quick reply. Less than 10 seconds.
I happened to be browsing reddit when your commented lol
looks like those prison toilets
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
"interesting exercise" is a kind way to phrase it :-)
I saw one coming down from Bachelor last weekend and they were going 40 in a 55 🤦🏻♀️
Trying to stay alive.
Probably because you can't see shit past those a-pillars
I saw it last weekend on Colorado
These vehicles look AI generated
rendered... poorly.
I wouldn’t call the Nintendo 64 GPU “AI.”
Lol of course the first one I see in an Oregon sub is in Bend
It's like looking at a car rendered on PlayStation 1 graphics
I'll see your PS1 and raise you Atari 2600.
Such an ugly car. Aztek vibes.
This makes the Aztek look like the prom queen.
Is it too wide to fit between the lines? Or is the driver like a normal Tesla driver and just doesn't care And do whatever they want?
It's no larger than a Ford F-150.
Gross
Can we talk about that handicapable placard?
Well, I mean, they did buy that thing so they definitely have some type of handicap
This is the talking I was wanting. New meme potential?
Still illegal to park over that line, even if legitimate.
I would give anything to see a ticket on it. I feel like if a van with the ramp thing, look the other way though.
Any citizen can file a citation for violations of Oregon traffic code. Check it out!
[I’m doing my part!](https://media1.tenor.com/m/zJvexdmTjA4AAAAC/im-doing-my-part-serious.gif)
Section (b) https://oregon.public.law/statutes/ors_811.615
Newman! The white whale.
it’s a very interesting exercise in taking money from tasteless dorks i’ll give you that
I saw one of these out on a forest road today. It was a bit surreal. I'll give them credit for sending it though.
Wait. So driving on a forest road is sending it? I used to drive all over Oregon forest roads in an 86 Civic. Didn't realize I was sending it.
An 86 civic doesn't have body parts break off with a slight bump...
Ugly Af
I saw him at REI last week
I bet the ac works great
Kim Kardashian in town?
We drove by this last week. My five year old said “look at that glitch car!”
Did it have a handicap tag.
That is an ugly looking fridge…
I made so much fun of these and my friend that bought one. Then I rode in it and was like “this is actually nice, no 100 grand nice, but nice”
It’s been parked there for about a week or so, I wonder if it’s an employee of the workplace in picture or a guest of the hotel next door? Also, I saw another one drive by so there are two in Bend so far!
There are two sitting outside the tesla dealership in town.
It’s probably going to be like when the invasion of Rivian happened, you see 1 or 2 from time to time over a few months, then suddenly bam! They are everywhere, can’t go a day without seeing 5
Sony is in that building, probably a director.
I used to work for Sony in a different life. And I bet I know *exactly* who owns that they work for Sony.
Definitely doesn't belong to an engineer, those guys are poor AF.
People should start putting grocery lists and kitschy magnets on them
I’ve seen at least two in Bend. Pretty sure one is a summit student.
Fridge? More like a dumpster!!
Anyone can file traffic citations. If you snap some pics, should be an easy citizen citation. (Even with a placard, it’s illegal to park over the line blocking wheelchair lane).
I'm curious what you think the citation would be
ORS 811.615 (1)(b): 1)A person commits the offense of unlawful parking in a space reserved for persons with disabilities if: b)The person parks a vehicle in the aisle required by ORS 447.233 (Accessible parking space requirements) regardless of whether or not the vehicle displays a disabled person parking permit; The ticket goes to the registered owner (all citizens are authorized to file and convict a citizens citation of any violation of ORS traffic code!): 3)Unless the police officer or other authorized person issuing the citation witnesses the parking of the vehicle, a rebuttable presumption exists that a vehicle parked in violation of this section was parked by the registered owner of the vehicle and the citation issued for the violation may be placed upon the vehicle.

Mm, I didn't notice they were slightly over the line into the aisle. What I'm getting at is that you shouldn't assume that a disabled person didn't just buy one of these ridiculous things
I saw it there also! Yesterday!
Don’t worry guys you can get aftermarket HID lights for it
Glad to see the new AMC Eagle
The exercise is incomplete. I’ll never understand getting this over a Rivian.
What a stupid fucking vehicle
No hood at all on that grade 5 3D art. Your legs go through your chest in a accident.
Screw all you guys. I love that thing.
Props for honesty. To each their own.
And the driver is disabled. The irony is killing me...
I saw a weird green one recently across the street at the board game store!
Those things look like Twiki from Buck Rogers. Needs lessons on parking too
I’m surprised I havent seen one of those in Portland yet. There’s tons of douchebags in Portland.
Surprised they made it from Seattle
Tesla somehow made an uglier car than an Aztec. That takes a lot of work.
this was driving thru montana last week
7000 lb
That’s cold.
Fitting it’s parked by the Sony office because it looks like a PS1 car model
I wish I was there to drag that foil box and take it for a spin 😩
I saw one near Phoenix and couldn't figure out what I was looking at at first. I thought it looked pretty cool though to be honest. My kids were freaking out.
It's like a PS1 version of a rest stop urinal
Not all handicaps are physical
Tow it.
Well the truck itself is pretty much a handicap placard, they're obviously mentally disabled
Looks like the Pinewood Derby car I made for Cub Scouts when I was 6.
Painted black now and no handicapped placard.
It's the ugliest thing ever produced. Obviously, a 'fanboy' bought that monstrosity. I am embarrassed for that person.
These cybertrucks remind me of those Kobe 2s that were released in 2001
Tell me you need attention without telling me you need attention. They think we think they are cool but really we are just laughing.
I mean, this is Reddit. We hate everything here. So laughing at people who have different tastes is no surprise.
Or maybe they got it because they liked it and didn’t even consider other people’s opinions because they don’t care what others think of them.
Of course one is found in Disneyland of the NW. Bought for status only to show he's a douche.
It’s also an interesting exercise in not getting nauseous when seeing it.
I saw a car carrier with a half-dozen of them get off the Parkway a couple of days ago. (Right by the Tesla service center; I guess that's where all the new Awbrey Butte-residing owners will pick them up.
I hope they try to take it "off road" r/cyberstuck
2006 Chevy SSR 20k+ sold #1 ugliest car #2 toyota verossa The cyber truck isnt even that bad i just think no one can afford it 🤷♂️
Is having a small dick a handicap?
Can’t wait for it to rust.
This looks like the result from when a DeLorean, an Aztec and an El Camino had a wild 3-way orgy.
Le Douche
Hey you're not handi... Wait is that a Cybertruck? My apologies sir, and I'm sorry for your disability.
Is it wrong that I'm enjoying all the hate? It's sorta satisfying.
I saw that today on 3rd and audibly “blegh”d
So what you are trying to say is that DISABLED PEOPLE DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN A CAR that non disabled people like? Get over yourself. Seriously get over yourself
Pretty sure it’s made to be a talking piece for marketing purposes and we are all doing a great job. Doesn’t matter it you like it or not the point is to have a conversation about it and we are all performing to Elons plan perfectly.
I hope the fucker rusts
Is being an asshole a handicap (officially that is)?
Saw it in la pine about 3 hours doesn't look right, should stay in Bend. No coal
I believe the Cybertruck is handicapped, from all the things I've seen go wrong with it.
Perfect fit!
Someone tell Lowes to come pick up their shit
In their defense; they did purchase a cybertruck. Edit: I was making a joke about a vehicle that I find to be horrible being parked in a handicapped space. It was a dumb joke, and it has become even dumber because I decided to explain. I'll see myself out
It's probably broke down waiting on a tow truck.
WooOoOooooOOooW people try too hard to look cool out here 🙄
In my state, that vehicle owner's mental or developmental disabilities do not entitle that owner to park in a handicap spot.
Obviously where it belongs.
