Tesla Cybertruck Owners Who Drove 10,000 Miles Say Range Is 164 To 206 Miles::Also, the charging speeds are below par, but on the flip side, the sound system is awesome and the car is “a dream to drive.”

It certainly does dare to be different, but Tesla should've gone for a more conventional design for their first truck. The main appeal of Tesla was their mostly conventional designs at a time when many companies kept shooting for a goofy concept car look for their final designs that screamed "THIS IS AN EV". The cybertruck is minimalist in a sense, but also excessive in its pointiness, use of stainless steel, and how much it ignores the purpose of a pickup truck (i.e. the truck bed). If visual flare is defined as sticking out like a sore thumb, it definitely accomplishes that, but it's not a pretty vehicle.
