“It does suck, because everybody kind of makes fun of the Cybertruck. To the outside person, it’s kind of weird, it’s ugly, whatever. Once you actually get in it, drive it, you realize it’s pretty frickin’ cool,” he says. “It’s kind of been sad, because I’ve been trying to prove to people that it’s a really awesome truck that’s not falling apart, and then mine starts to fall apart, so it’s just… Yeah, it’s kind of unfortunate and sad.”

        Trabants have the excuse of being slapped together in factories who often didn’t make parts that could be swapped, and were worked on by a drunk with half a toolbox and whatever could be scavanged out of a dumpster.

        What’s the swastikar’s excuse?

        Edit: Also the trebant runs on a f’ing hedge trimmer motor and has the personality of a bunch of drunken rednecks out to have fun.

        The swastikar’s personality is ‘useless douchbag.’

          Trabants were fucking amazing. The most reliable car I’ve driven. Fuel pump problems? No fuel pump. Oil pump problems? No oil pump. Radiator/water pump problems? Air cooling. Ignition timing problems? Dedicated per-cyl ignition switch. Rust? Cardboard. Had a fender bender? Replace the panel in half an hour, painting is optional. Getting killed in high speed accident? No high speed.
