    The Tesla Cybertruck is, with no doubt, the ugliest car I've ever seen, the most dangerous, and one of the worst, both design and technical wise. It could have been much better if it was more rounded and followed the design language seen in the rest of the Tesla lineup, addressing its major design flaws in the process.

    Yes. Basically, the point is, modern cars look rounded on purpose. When someone with zero car knowledge tries to design a "futuristic" car, it looks and performs horribly.

    You're telling me the CEO's company was the one at the head of the project, instead of asking someone else's ?

    That's not a reason. Actually, it's an argument to the fact that he could've engagés someone

    I mean, he's also power-hungry. That's probably a better reason.

    How was the Yugo not a scam? That was after the SV-1, and the SV-1 wasn’t really a huge scam, either.

    Do you even know what i'm talking about ?

    Malcolm Bricklin convinced the New-brunswick's governement to finance the project (at least the Factory) . He let them 67% of the capital , promised at least 10000 cars personnes years. Now , you see the total production, you see how it missed . Heck, Malcolm Said this : " if i fail, i'll be Seen as a scammer . If i succeed, like an entrepreneur". The car absolutely failed, and so has the company found themselves with 40 million dollars of debt . But it's the New-brunswick governement that payed that , because of the 67% capital they had . So you sée the scam it was.


    The Yugo wasn't really a scam . They didn't promised anything, neither lied in the add. Oh , and if you don't like the Yugo , then , why didn't y'all went to take a Lecar ?

    I want around to make the desicion to import the Le Car, and he didn't really try to scam them, he just overestimated himself, just like he did with the Subaru 360 imports, which, speaking of, I know a guy with a 360 on his property.

    Just saw one in the parking lot of my local pool and the color wasn’t even consistent across a single panel.

    Apparently the luxury cars such as Mercedes Benz and Tesla have a hunger for seeing their owners "guillotined", though usually just their fingers and thumbs at this stage:

    To clarify, he'd already partially broken it in an earlier test.
