Good post; now can you explain to me why ANYONE AT ALL would buy a Cybertruck!?

The ugliest "vehicle" on the planet. I'd rather own a used tank

Better looking and more practical. I totally agree with you, this really is the ugliest car ever built. Why? EVs are generally designed to be extremely aerodynamic as it makes a significant difference to the vehicle's range. Look at what that can be: the Aston Martin DB9/Vanquish (when they tested it against a Ferrari and a Porsche on ‘Top Gear’ – I'm afraid I can't remember which models – it was outperformed by both. “Yeah, but look at it!” was the unanimous verdict). The Corvette Stingray. By all accounts it handled really poorly, but it looked fantastic. The Duesenberg Model SSJ, the Jaguar D-type (I think even better than the E-type and that looked great too: https://hagerty-vid-images.imgix.net/vehicles/PetersonAutomotiveMuseum_%20_Jaguar_1957_XKSS_Roadster_%20_Overall.jpeg). Muskrat is just a cheapskate, probably got one of his kids to do it.

Most "name brands" aren't any better than their generic counterparts but cost exorbitantly more. so called "luxury brands" just take the greed to the next level.

Keeping up with the Joneses is for fucking chumps. In their desperate attempt to BE THE Top Banana, to be The Envy, they're drowning in debt. Do they have any self respect? Self worth? Are they anything without the envy of others? Fuck sake.

‘Fucking idiot’ is an understatement. They'd have to be clinically insane? Who has such low self-worth that they need something like this to reassure themselves? A Savile Row suit I can understand, at least it's quality, although they're also for the aspiring. The truly rich will have some little hidden away back street tailor in Hong-Kong and they'll boost how little it cost them. They don't need to prove they're rich to anyone, they know they are. That anyone would even contemplate buying such a piece of junk at that price incenses me. Does it come with a sign “I'm such a moron I paid $700 for my flip-flops.”? The irony is that if they were $9.99 everyone, including the cretins who'd contemplate buying these, would think that's outrageously overpriced. Give the money to a worthless cause (worthy is such an ugly, judgemental word). Who are these going to impress? If not fury at the thoughtless waste they're more likely to be met with guffaws of laughter: “🤣. Boy, did they see you coming!”.

Wait, I've got an idea. I'll run an ad: “Custom, made-to measure, meticulously sourced highest quality materials flip-flops. Bespoke colours of your choice, every pair unique, comfort and durability guaranteed, only $824.73. Two pairs for $1,814.40”! 🙄

I'm on year 5 with my 5 dollar flip flops. And they are more appealing than that bad choice. Weird
