There’s something tragic about Cybertruck owners, and it’s nothing to do with Elon.

They seem to be wildly impressed by their vehicle doing the most mediocre things that any AWD vehicle can do.

They’re just coping with the fact they spent 6 figures on this giant piece of shit so they convince themselves their investment was worth it because truck go brrr
Yeah, at this point they know they got conned, and they either have to admit that or double down and act wildly impressed at its ability to, like, drive on an unpaved road.
I read a while back that many of them were shocked the cyber truck didn’t fit in regular parking spaces. In other words, these are people that, for the most part, have never owned a large pickup before. The obvious conclusion is that they bought it for cred or because they think it looks cool, not because they actually need a vehicle that size.
What about the other people who drive a pickup truck? Do they actually haul cargo or pull a boat?

I’m not in the US, but everyone I know who has that type of vehicle is an outdoorsy type, who wants a vehicle with lots of cargo space, high ground clearance, and often towing capacity. Having the cargo area separate from the passenger cabin is also useful for carrying wet, smelly or dirty stuff.

They usually have a canopy on the vehicle as well.

Same here. Those cars are so expensive to own, that you don’t ever even think of getting one unless you really really need it for a specific purpose. However, I’ve heard that Americans don’t think that way.
