Well Bill,
It started out as a joke, but I ended up plunking $100 down too. Less than
24 hours after the reveal (in California)! Can always get it back, if I
change my mind. The camping part caught our eye, plus some of the other
goodies. Check it out! Susan

I agree with all comments above. It is not pretty, but specs are great.
For 100 dollars I ordered one.

My 0.2 cents worth. I see evidence of a desire to evoke some military
design concepts here. (It worked for the Humvee/Hummer.) The angular
surfaces on military aircraft help to reduce the radar profile. The
Cybertruck seems to be Tesla’s first attempt at making vehicles invisible
to police radar. However, stainless steel may be the wrong material.
Stealth aircraft use a lot of exotics and special coatings to achieve radar
invisibility. The Cybertruck probably won’t disappear from radar.
Here are a couple of other observations that I found interesting. First

And second, a take on the truck’s appearance:

Guys,
You’re missing the point (and you didn’t click on my link). Every boy
ages 4-11 is going to be nagging his parents to get one, so that he can be
the coolest kid at school when his parents pick him up in the afternoon to
go home. When I was little, I used to play with Tonka trucks.
MIt freundlichen Grüßen/Kind regards,

You'all,
For years, I thought the ugliest vehicle ever made was the Pontiac
Aztec. Well, not any more! Franz Von Holzhausen must have been on
vacation! However, the performance at that price is really good.

It's not me, altho it has some plusses going for it, but some folks will
be interested. Like The Matrix, Bladerunner & MadMax people. Humvee
owners, possibly. Gangsta's that want to shoot up rival gangsta's & bad
boys who want to rob banks. And the ones that just want different, as in
very. It's definitely not a Tesla look-a-like or a pickup look-a-like, so
it will be a no-go for some, but Elon's out there (in space most of the
time), so I don't think he's too worried. He mentioned awhile back that
after this Bladerunner-type he would then create a more normal/regular
pickup, so we'll see.
I wouldn't mind driving one tho, on a race track!

It's growing on me, at first I was like, this is ridiculous but the more
i think about it the more its not THAT strange, there are still a lot of
questions though.
But a 100Kwh pack for base model $39k!! Elon is managing to do something
with battery prices!
