We have a lot of EVs in general in SoCal, including a lot of Cybertrucks. 

And they still don't look like anything other than a dumpster to me. 

I didn't say dumpster fire, like as a euphemism for "terrible". 

I said dumpster.

They look like a literal dumpster.

I've said before on this board that I didn't like the original Model 3 (platypus) or the original Model Y (obese platypus). I thought both were not horrific, but they were borderline ugly. They were basically a 5. 

However, the redesigns of both models are actually pretty solid. I'm not going to say they're great-looking vehicles, but they've lost some of the design elements that just made them look weird, and now they're up to about a 7. Nothing you'd brag about, but something you're certainly not ashamed of.

I don’t find them completely hideous. Not sure I’d ever own one but I kinda like them.

Have you ever tried to fit into one?

I'm 5-9 and it was tight. Worst POS I've ever driven.

A terrible Aggie take that could only come from the mouth of one whose cheerleaders are men.

I haven't. Even when I was considering EVs earlier this year, Tesla was an automatic no.

I thought the back seat of the 3 wasn't great, but I fit fine in the front.

The model S is the only one that looks decent to me.  All of the others are either humpy and weird, or they look like a dumpster as bwar pointed out.    Truly a hideous lineup of vehicles and I laugh heartily at anyone that owns or drives one.
