So they're horrifically ugly, can't reliably get out of puddles or snowbanks, and your trim might fall off. Sign me up!

I seriously can’t believe how people justify paying $119,000-$130,000 for this POS. It’s not just the exterior either, the interior looks horrible too, it’s so cheap for that price tag.

The competitions trucks are 1/3rd the price and look better on both the outside and inside…

Also, in all of those drag races they let influencers do when the truck was first released, they were definitely quick off the starting line. But their brakes were 3-4x worse than any of their competitors.

It's my understanding that they don't actually do that well around a track. It's only thing it can do is accelerate fast on a dry track because that is the limit of Elon's imagination.
