1/5 Tesla Utility Vehicle (called the Cybertruck) thoughts:

First, thanks to everyone that said hi, it was great meeting you.

I want to start by saying that I came to the Petersen Museum expecting to solidify my negative opinion of the Cybertruck. These were the first pics...
2/5 My 1st thought was this thing looks mean/aggressive. My 2nd thought was this isn’t a truck. I think that is where I went wrong in my opinion and expectations. This is a UTILITY VEHICLE, not a truck. I owned a Hummer H2 SUT (“truck version”) and that’s what it reminds me of.
3/5 The back isn’t as bad as I thought it would be and I think most of that is because once I got my head around what this vehicle is (to me anyway), it changed my perspective. I never considered the Hummer SUT a truck, it was a square, beast of a vehicle and looked aggressive.
4/5 I didn’t take a ton of pics because I wanted to really “take in” the vehicle and imagine what I can do with it.

I did get some pics of the wishbone front suspension and tried to get the rear as well. I got a close up of the wheel cover and it’s hard to tell how it connects.
5/5 Bottom line is this...

I’ve changed my mind and I will love the Tesla Utility Vehicle. 😬

I already have plans on what I want to do with it, but I won’t be giving that away. 🤓 I am excited to have reservation #612 and stoked to drive a large Tesla vehicle with a bed. 👍
