Car Talk

Aside from all the other conceptual, practical, and political reasons to avoid it, the stainless steel exterior reminds me of the Delorean. Which, despite being used in a movie, was a failure as a car available to the public. So from the very first moment I saw the Cybertruck, I wondered why Musk would want to remind people of that earlier disaster.

At least Delorean's looked cool.
These look like they are built out of sheets of plywood.

You can ignore my post here in this thread if you want, because I haven't been good about reading most of the posts in this thread lately. :D

Very much enjoying the new Honda Accord.
A few things:

The most noticeable driving difference from old car is this one does the idle-stop thing. Stop a red light for 3 seconds and the engine goes "off quiet". It's cool, but I still think about it every time it happens.

The key fob thing is cool, not needing to turn a key in the ignition. But I worry about walking away from the car not remembering to bring the key with me.

The car suggests always leaving the headlights in auto position and it knows what to do, never have to think about it. Running lights, headlights on or off depending on outdoor lighting and road conditions. All good but at night, when you get like 3 seconds where nothing is approaching and you're not following anyone, the brights automatically come on, then go off as soon as a vehicle is in sight. I wouldn't play that game, brights for me are when I'm on a road with very little traffic and not constantly brights on, brights off thing happening. Then I end up moving from Auto setting to regular Lights on setting.
