It was obvious. It's the next VW bug. You're going to be seeing these literally everywhere - and maybe very cleverly, Elon is going to be politically flipping a lot of fucking reds with this. It will be hilarious to see the rust belt and the bible belt looking like an episode of Westworld.

Doesn't matter how much you hate tech or think it looks geeky, no zoomer redneck with a set of nuts is gonna abide his neighbor conveying logs and cruising away while he struggles to lift his 2x4 into the truck bed. Then once they're emotionally invested in their truck, which is electric, next comes the intense, passionate love for "the woods" or some shit so they don't have to admit fully to their political transformation.

Honestly masterful.

this is why it will succeed:

1. outperforms trucks in its class
2. priced competitively - the weird shape is cheaper to manufacture and what allows it to be sold at a 40k entry price
3. you can still make it look american by attaching aftermarket redneck accessories (pic related). Add some racks, some extra lights above the cab, a bull bar etc and you can continue to look like you fuck your sister

Don't be retarded. It's attacking an anti-market for Tesla's larger mission. They're THE scaled manufacturer in electric vehicles, and truck sales are some 20% of sales in the largest automobile market in the world. If they can flip truck owners to their product, the WOMM effect will be fucking huge in the long-term.

Not to mention the sheer brilliance of this design being so aggressively pulled from a fusion of Blade Runner at 1950's "looks at the fuuuuuuuture" showcases during a cultural decade defined by people desperately trying to escape into middle class so as not to be left behind by the transformation of entertainment, employment, and technology to service-based network models.
