1. I have called it "Eloon's Edsel."

Ugliest excuse for an automobile or truck ever made.

Muskrat's first attempt at car design.

10. At a 143" wheelbase and AWD instead of 4-wheel drive, it's not all that competent as an off-road vehicle.

A true 4 wheel drive vehicle, like a Jeep Wrangler (97 inch wheelbase and up to 12.9 inch ride height) would have had no trouble with that test.
The cybertruck is merely a pretender; no real substance.

11. A new Edsel apparently cost between $2700 & $3700.

Today, that would translate to between $30,000 & $42,000. So as bad as the Edsel may have been, the cybertruck costs at least 2 1/2 to 3 times as much as the Edsel when adjusted for inflation. That makes the cybertruck far worse in my opinion.
