@arstechnica this was part of the musketeer’s “look at me, I can do what I want” phase. there was also the purchase of twitter and the nazi salute. ketamine is a hell of a drug!

@arstechnica I'm not totally against the looks. And it's got some good technology. Just it's a poor truck, EVs are a bad fit for (genuine) truck use cases, it still cost way more than promised... but primarily, Musk... Yuk.

@arstechnica you couldn't pay me to drive one of these and that's aside from their political issues.

@arstechnica I'm shocked nobody wants an ugly ass vehicle sold by an unsavory person.

@arstechnica It’s also the first model Musk designed from the ground up.

Go figure.
