I'm sorry, but I am completely against Tesla's build quality, design decisions (like a yoke for a steering wheel among many others), business practices (how they treat the media, customers and safety agencies).

Also, IMO, this thing is the most horrendously styled vehicle I've ever seen.

Now, if I had $75k or more I'd be preordering either a Rivian or a Bollinger. The Rivian seems to be the perfect "next step" from a normal car to an EV. Everything familiar and easy to use. The Bollinger just has that Willy's/Defender/FJ60 cool look. I also like the Atlas.

Everyone's got there opinion and you're definitely entitled to that , I'm actually good with it. Some people don't like GM, some don't like Kia etc. Real story behind me getting another Pilot was that I could not wait for my Model Y to arrive. I ordered it in May and I was slated for delivery first week of November; knowing Tesla, they could've delivered it 2 weeks earlier but as you are all familiar with, my wife's 2010 Pilot was totaled and I also have my own daily driver aside from my toy which is my avatar here. Long story short, we needed a daily driver for the boss and quick (can't wait the 2 months backlog on the Model Y) so we bought a car that we are all to familiar with - the new Pilot. Cancelled my order because we just cannot afford 3 car notes. And since the Cybertruck is years away...figured why not get in line for one. I can cancel it anytime and my $100 pre-order fee is refundable...for now he he he.

No, you're supposed to lambaste me for my opinion, that's the way forums work!

So, my pressing questions (so I can get deep into the mind of someone who owns a Viper but wants a Cybertruck)... Why a Cybertruck over an Atlis, Rivian or Bollinger? Or even a Lightning, Hummer pickup or the upcoming Silverado or Ram EV?
