I like the styling too, its got a wicked 80s cyberpunk/Delorian/Tron vibe. I dislike... everything else. I get why a lot of people wouldnt like it, its a love it or hate it deal.

But now that Musk is such a polarising figure and the truck is such a polarising design I think a lot of people cant or wont separate the two.

It’s funny, I love the DeLorean/Tron style, but to me the CT looks nothing like that. Both of those styles have a certain sleekness to them, while nothing about the CT looks sleek.

I kinda liked the concept vehicle, but the production version managed to make just pile terrible little changes on top of one another until it came out looking like a bigger Pontiac Aztek that someone forgot to paint. It's lumpy and quite ugly in a way I was only half-expecting.
