@jerry I hope they enjoy their one bag of groceries

@starchy @jerry that looks like a home improvement store judging from those carts. i can't even imagine how little they'll carry home in that "truck".

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@gangrif @starchy that was at Lowes (home improvement)

gangrif ,
@gangrif@social.undrground.org avatar

@jerry @starchy That was going to be my guess based on the color of the carts. :P. I've been in my share of these places. lol.

starchy ,
@starchy@infosec.exchange avatar

@gangrif @jerry mea culpa. In that case I hope they enjoy their one bag of improvement

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@starchy @gangrif I assume they just go to Lowe’s so they can rent a proper truck

@jerry my whole family was there to see our first one the other day, and it was as spectacularly stupid as we'd hoped.

@jerry living close to the SpaceX campus here in LA and usually see tons of the new models as soon as they are available. (My street is flooded with model 3s). I think I've seen 2 of those in person ever. Seems like even his employees are ... somewhat sceptical.

I just think they look cringe.

@jerry Someone around here has one painted neon green. It was seen dead on the highway. This week I saw another one, unpainted. I laughed as I passed it.

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

It’s much larger than I thought it was. I suspect it’s close to the same length as my extended length Expedition, but I can carry a cat, a dog, 4 adults and a month’s worth of stuff in my expedition. I think the cyber truck can fit a few bags of groceries

@jerry maga hats are about $100k cheaper and send the same message.

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@bleakfuture they probably have more room in them too

bleakfuture ,
@bleakfuture@techhub.social avatar

@jerry if you include where normal heads would hold the brain I’m sure the maga hat skull has tons of room. The hollow part in a magas skull should be called a frunk

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@bleakfuture “brunk”

@jerry the only thing it's good for is hauling a big ego coz it really can't carry much else.

gangrif ,
@gangrif@social.undrground.org avatar

@jerry They are quite big. And I joke, but the bed is on par with other lifestyle trucks. Which are trucks only in the sense that they have a bed rather than a passenger compartment. I prefer my enclosed suburban-like used escalade (for the same reasons you seem to like your expedidtion).

@jerry and you can also keep your dignity with an Expedition

EricFielding ,
@EricFielding@mastodon.social avatar

@jerry The Cybertruck is much faster in going from 0 to 60 miles per hour than your Expedition, so it does have one advantage for those with big egos.

jjbaumgartner ,
@jjbaumgartner@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I was also surprised at the size. It's also somehow uglier in person.

@jerry Perhaps, but can your Expedition brick itself in the rain? Checkmate atheists.

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@pkprotoplasm that is a good point. I don’t live in fear of my expedition bricking itself

@jerry someone on the other website was boasting it could hold a whole shopping cart full of dirt.

  • a few bags worth of groceries.. AND a Lifetime full of regret! 😉

@jerry omg, a black one drove by me on the highway a few days ago. Compared to the other vehicles on the road, it also seemed a lot bigger than I expected.

@jerry the shopping carts look better and have more space.

@ServersOnFire@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I saw one for the first time in my town a couple weeks ago. My initial impression is that it is way uglier in person than I would have guesssed. I think it had a business name on the sides of it, so they bought it for marketing.

@SecureOwl@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry you’ve probably seen a couple before and didn’t realize it, they blend in quite well

@jahanson that is hilarious

@jerry here it would get a ticket, for parking outside the marked area 😂

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@nieldk outside of parking in disabled spots, you can’t really get a ticket in a private parking lot around here.

nieldk ,
@nieldk@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry ohh here you can, and they are quite aggressive about it

@jerry The tires are almost $500 each 😳. Way to own the libs.

jerry OP ,
@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@Thorium in fairness, I had to replace the tires on my expedition and they were about $480 each. Truck tires are expensive.

Thorium ,
@Thorium@social.linux.pizza avatar

@jerry I believe they wear through tires extra fast.

SpaceLifeForm ,

@jerry

The one I spotted a week or so ago, was also in a parking lot. But the paintjob was not that bad. Yet.

jsh ,
@jsh@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry there are a couple out where I am. They’re so ugly and annoying to drive behind in my sedan since there’s no window/windshield view to peer through to see anything ahead, just a Roblox-inspired hunk of obnoxiously reflective metal.

@jerry Is this the Tesla Cybertruck or a rival model of the kind?

@jerry@infosec.exchange avatar

@novaTopFlex it was the Tesla brand truck

@jerry spotted a Tesla driving by... I feel there's one Tesla I know of in town, which makes me, "yeah sure, you weren't aware at the time you bought it." Heck, I pretty much wasn't aware. I mean, I knew he was a tech bro jerk... but that's not quite the level of evil that I would say, "don't buy anything his companies produce, if you can avoid it."
