I didn't know you could make a Cybertruck look uglier, but I learn new things every day

@LilahTovMoon i don't know. I'm kinda impressed. sure, I don't know why you'd buy a cybertruck, but the diy topper makes me less likely to hate the person driving it? seems practical, at least. and like it's used for work.

@LilahTovMoon Is that plywood? It should be plywood.

@LilahTovMoon That is, uhm... kind of impressive in its own way.

I feel like they could have spent less by selling the piece of crap and buying something that won't trap them in a death fire someday, but each to their own.

(Then again, this definitely looks mostly done by hand, so who knows. It's even very poorly painted, lol.)

@LilahTovMoon and yet it also somehow looks like they turned it into something useful!

@rjblaskiewicz @LilahTovMoon

It seems to be cheap plywood, spray painted w silver Rustoleum, Is that even street legal ?

[korgie@tech.lgbt]

@LilahTovMoon An "ill-fitting" cap matches the rest of the body which came from the factory with about the same level of fitment.

At least this makes the thing a little bit useful. A lot less useful than basically any van as well as a lot less reliable and a lot more expensive... but still an improvement in usability.

[shadsterling@mastodon.social]

@uastronomer @LilahTovMoon that was my first thought, but my second thought was that the whole thing might just slide off the back when it goes uphill

[dofain@mastodon.social]

@LilahTovMoon it gets even worse when you know there's only plastic attachments for the panels

[olivia_m11@tech.lgbt]

@LilahTovMoon tbh looks not bad

[jeremydebose@mstdn.social]

@LilahTovMoon this is my favorite one I've seen in the wild...ok the only one I've seen. With a self-deprecating license plate.

[tedmielczarek@mastodon.social]

@LilahTovMoon this makes me think of the stupid vehicle mode they made for Rodimus Prime in the original Transformers movie.

[notthatdelta@furry.engineer]

@LilahTovMoon Phew, that was certainly a decision.

Funny thing is, the actual lines of the topper sort of work. The construction, however, screams "I blacked out in a Home Depot".

Overall, a solid 2/10 effort.

[pizzademon@mastodon.online]

@LilahTovMoon I was about to write, "why didn't they just buy something in the aftermarket..." When I realized the Cybertruck hasn't done numbers to create a robust aftermarket

@LilahTovMoon

Sweet baby Jesus it looks like a jetpack.

[greatbigtable@mastodon.social]

@LilahTovMoon the future is now.

[mariyadelano@hachyderm.io]

@LilahTovMoon I gagged

[billyjoebowers@mastodon.online]

@LilahTovMoon

What the actual brain damaged freak is going on here?

[megatronicthronbanks@mastodon.social]

@LilahTovMoon I don't care if this is somebody toodling around with a GAN, I like it

[taliasworld@mstdn.party]

@LilahTovMoon HELP- what is this monster. I live in silicon valley so I have seen things but that- I'm lost for words
