MODERATORS
For both of them the design features were dictated by an idiot who had free reign over the project and didn't listen to any of the expert's input.
At least they won't die in the death trap that way
customers who bought this have to embarrassingly hide thier faces while driving
I know a guy who is a huge Elon supporter and loved his Cybertruck. He got rid of it because of all the heckling he got over it, and didn’t want his young kids to deal with it. Now he drives a Rivian.
They've still failed to satisfy my needs. I still can't find a horn when I'm angry!
Here, here, and here
If you run over your mail box in A tesla that shit will lock the doors and catch fire an burn you and your whole family to death. I'm ride with my boy homer.
Has the world forgotten the Cadillac Cimmaron?
Never heard of it
I think the Pontiac Aztec was worse tbh.
The Cimarron was basically a Chevy Cavalier and it worked. I know, it was literally my first car.
The Aztec was decent to drive, it was just kind of ugly and not terribly reliable.
The Cimarron was, as you say, a rebadged Cavalier. The Cav was the bottom of the barrel that GM had to offer at the time (1982), and they thought it would be a good idea to slap their flagship brand on it.
It was a legendary failure, on par with the Edsel.
Fair. I had a used '83 Cimarron 1.8T in 1994. It was an absolute slug, basically chewed through alternators and water pumps on a quarterly basis, but honestly wasn't horrible for a first car.
Aztec was fugly as hell though.
The Aztek is indeed fugly. But there's still some charm to it, at least with some nostalgia goggles.
At least looks better than the Cybertuck IMO. I have never EVER seen a vehicle as ugly as the CT; other than maybe the Nissan Cube.
There's a Nissan Cube in my driveway right now waiting for me to put an AC compressor in it.
Meh, it just looks like your average boxy 80's car.
i will learn about it now
Does the meme creator think an animated fictional show is "automotive history"?
i don't think it's meant as counter example and more as a comparable story in the meaning of "the symptoms predicted it years ago".
I remember watching the release Live with a few buddies, and the "gunshot proof windows" shattered with the gentle toss of a ball bearing.
I knew just watching the release it would flop, they marketed solely to clueless hipster assholes instead of actual truck-buying rednecks.
I beg to differ, Homer's car has been beaten by the Cybertruck.
Homers car is still a better car than that weird fucking thing.
both were unique cars that did things no sensible automaker has the guts to.
