Like you channel but not a fan of HyperChange. You do know that he pitches stocks besides talk about the tech. I find this extremely dangerous and disingenuous. For example, suggesting to buy TSLA, of course its at highs now, but he suggested it at 350 saying its gonna hit 10k then it went down to 180. Same for NIO suggest it at 11-12 went down to 1.5. No problem with being a Tesla fan boy or NIO enthuisiast but there is something in suggesting stocks and doing financial projections that over simplifies and dismisses risk. Of course, Gal says he is a long term investor, which means he or she has no idea wtf is going on in the market.

I’m old enough @ 60 to remember Volkswagen’s “The Thing”. When I first say one I thought it was butt ugly. Over time they grew on me. Quite a few years have passed since the last one was made and whenever I see one now I think “cool”. They’ve even reached something of a cult icon status these days. I was shocked and disappointed with the cybertruck at first. The more I looked at it the more it grew on me. In looking at the specs and comparing it to my ‘04 Chevy Silverado it’s roughly about the same size yet outclasses it in every way! 🤔 I showed it to my mom (79) and son (30). My mom said it was ugly. My son said it was different, but okay. Five days after the reveal I put in my order for a tri-motor cybertruck. 😃👍🏽

As an engineer of nearly 10 years, with about ~5 years of experience in the automotive field (mostly trucks actually), i can indeed confirm that the design looks simplistic because it is lol

As soon as I saw the design, I fell in love. Now I'm not even a truck guy, I'm 39 years old this year and until I saw the cyber truck I NEVER imagined myself in a truck. This design.. is just what I used to love about the 80's.

I've noticed, even as a kid, that many times a new thing that I strongly dislike when I'm first exposed to it, like a song, a building, or an activity, can turn into a thing I really like, over time. That happened to me with EVs. I've also noticed this can be true regarding people - for example, a woman I do not find at all attractive at first can eventually become a woman I find extremely attractive, and this flip can happen over a very brief period of time, so brief that I am aware the change is taking place as it happens. I think the key to this is when a new thing (or person) has some aspect that irritates me in a way that does not allow me to stop thinking about it. It's easy to not change your mind about something if you consider and dismiss it out of hand and never think about it again. The fact that I continue to think about something or someone I don't like is an indication to me that my subconscious recognizes there is more to them than what I see on the surface. The more I examine it, the more used to it I become, the more I learn about it, the more likely it is that I will discover value I missed in my initial assessment - but there has to be something "extra" there that keeps gnawing at me, even if I don't know what that "extra" bit is at first.

I was extremely excited for the reveal yet shocked when I first saw it come onto stage. It wasn't like anything I had expected (obviously a shared reaction and a success for Elon Musk). When I witnessed it's demonstrated strength and capabilities, I was impressed. I am also a fan of Halo, Blade Runner, and futuristic/post-apocalyptic movies, books, stories, etc.; so, the style began growing on me since the first reveal. I was born and raised in Texas and have driven pickup trucks my entire life; and, I understand and agree with the need for renewable energy. In short, I'm thrilled about the Cybertruck and owning for myself in a few years.

My "AH HA" moment with this truck was when I saw inside the Vault ... NO WHEELWELLS !!! Do you even understand how awesome that is ??? I ordered the TriMotor immediately. I believe this vehicle was "engineered" NOT designed. This is the genius of the CyberTruck.

Then I went to look at a Ford F-150 and it suddenly struck me that the huge chrome front grill on the Ford looked incredibly dumb, crass and outdated. The Cybertruck is so ugly it’s beautiful

So I developed an aversion to green vehicles. At some point I needed a truck that could push snow, and the only one I could find in my price range and timetable was... you guessed it- GREEN! I bought the truck. I moved snow. I hauled stuff. It did what I needed it to do. Trucks are about utility and function, not looks! So lets rig up a plow on this puppy, and you can count me in! Just maybe not a green one...

I had the exact same feeling with the Model 3, when it first came out I thought the front was super ugly. After several months of hearing about it and seeing pictures of it, I slowly came to love it.

The power train an the battery are interesting, as was the avalanches mid gate and the ridgeline's inbed trunk and dual action tail gate, but they had too many limitations, be careful telling truck owners what they want. The visibility looks awful, you can't put a flat deck on it. I am a tradesman and basically everyone I know is a tradesman or a farmer. I have yet to meet one who actually wants one. It's a funky look, and may have a shot among people who own trucks for the image (see, every crew cab 5 3/4' bed ever), but even those truck's still have limited practicality.

I immediately loved it, then I loved it even more.

At the moment of reveal it took me about 10 seconds to go through the whole gamut of emotions until I realised its beauty. Simply an epiphany.

I was more Shocked about the numbers than the looks of the truck itself when i learned about it.

Getting a dual motor model. I almost immediately fell in love with the design and I've only gotten more and more excited for it as time has passed since. It's so awesome!

As soon as I saw it I wanted it. I guess I'm just a genius.

I had the same reaction as you and MKBHD - first reaction: that’s dumb ... two days later: it’s growing on me ... today: I think I’m gonna order one. 😊

I loved it from the start. I only became more impressed when I learned how many ways this was improving on the design of other trucks in so many ways.

The broad acceptance of the car came after 1895 when the design changed from motorized carriage to something we are all familiar with. With this design, Tesla marks an inflection point. Later we will recognize this as a required step to settle the future of transport. This is clearly an out-of-the-box design and lots of people will have difficulties to accept this in the beginning. The years to come will show more of these designs, as this will freed us from a form that is dictated by retired technology. This is a remarkable era and I am glad that I am part of it.

Double comment: when I was in high school I hated how the "8th gen Civic Si" (2006-2011) looked, thought it looked like an egg... But now, I love my 2008 Civic Si.

The longer you examine the features, options, price points and costs of ownership? The better the Cybertruck looks.

I agree that it looks very good for those who need the functionality of a truck (for work or play), but that doesn’t necessarily extend across the board, with regards to its aesthetics. It will be interesting to see what happens to Tesla pricing, which has changed after the release of the Model 3 in particular, as the Y and the Cyber Truck roll out. If the pricing changes it could very well sway buyers who were going to buy a mid-range Cyber Truck, for reasons not primarily based on functionality, towards other Tesla models. Regardless, should I ever need an ATV, I’m going for a Cyberquad! That thing looks amazing. The back end is straight off the F-117, as well as other stealth aircraft, and that’s just awesome. =)

@@Got2Bespoke I've been wondering about that as well. The price point of the truck with the technology inside it (batteries, motors, etc) it seems likely the model 3 and y will drop in price by the time this truck is released. The manufacturing costs may be majorly reduced for batteries and that may be why the tesla truck is only just now being released.

@Got2Bespoke

Blake Heard when I was going through the test drive and research before purchasing my Tesla in September, I was told by staff that price drops in the other models are expected when the Y is released as it did for the S and X when the 3 was released. It makes sense as there is a significant difference in price between the 3 and the other two cars. The only different here is that the CT is supposed to start around the 3’s starting price. Then again, there’s also a lot to be done (to design, price, etc?) before the CT goes from one (or two?) working prototypes to being mass produced. Certainly prices will drop as technology and production gets better/more efficient, competitors crop up (Rivian, etc.). I have to wonder if all of the potential changes are the reason that the deposit for the CT was so low. If they accepted more, they’d be under much more scrutiny when it came to how long that interest free loan 😉 was outstanding and how much it might change from this point to when they start delivering. Thanks for replying, cheers!

Thank you, once again, for a balanced and documented point of view.

Thanks for watching!

Up until now boxy Jeeps, Broncos, Rovers and Scouts were the toughest things available. So we learned to associate toughness with that shape after we watched films, saw them off-road, etc. Now there's an entirely new level of toughness. We will learn to associate this new shape with toughness. The TCT is an instant classic. Might not have collector value though because they will sell a zillion of them and they'll stay on the road forever looking new, never rusting, denting, breaking down, or even scratching much. Others will follow, but this will always be the first.

So far the biggest setback of this vehicle being used as a work truck is accessing the bed from the sides. They are high and slope away from you. Meaning grabbing items from behind is the only real option

When I first saw the truck I instantly new I wanted one, as a Civil Engineer I could see so many influences from Sci-fi and high end technologies, I totally got it and now I am totally getting one and can’t wait!

Someone texted me and asked if I was getting a Tesla truck before I saw the reveal for myself, and I immediately said “haha, no” because I assumed it would be generic and overpriced and be too gimmicky. But then for kicks I fired up the video and my jaw dropped. For the first time in my life I’ve found an automobile I truly desire. I’ve been waiting for this truck without even knowing it. To me it is perfect in every way i could expect and many ways I couldn’t. My car broke down recently so I already needed a new one, but I’ve decided to get a junker replacement to hold me for a couple years as I wait.

I've ordered it, I'm crazy about it!

The VW bug was ugly at first but was a great little car, I remember when I was younger( in my 60's) some folks bashed it for it's looks and size. now it had the longest production run . The cybertruck may be in the same arena, I did not care for it's looks but, so many great features. Stainless steel body panels that is what caught my eye. I hate waxing my truck, I need a ladder to properly do the job. The cybertruck will allow me to go on trails with my less worry about the body scraping from branches and brush. It also snows where I live , most truck here have rusting issue so I have to stay on top of keeping my truck clean from salt or deicer used on roads ways. So I reserved one it will be my first electric vehicle. I live in a small town with no chargers, I plan on putting in a Tesla charger.

Hated it for one day, wasn’t sure for a day, placed an order on day three, and now can’t wait to get one of these beautiful machines. So much for love at first sight.

I believe it's a unique design. I personally love it and preordered mine.

I'm a jeep kind of guy, so this kind of simplified, utilitarian design really appeals to me. The first thing I thought of when I saw the shape was a rear axle truss like the one on my Jeep. All it needs are some go-fast holes.

So if we start driving this cybertruck, what will be the next design like new model? Is it going to be a box? The thing is that the truck is not that ugly, it could have been better if the designer had a little details, like repetition of small lines across the fender, trunk, and the side of the doors. Don’t throw away details is very important. just a little design should have been added. Let the designers respect ART! Is part of life.
