They had some photos of it in the shop with the wrap and the Frunk looked incredibly tiny. I guess it was added as an afterthought but yikes, I'd much rather have the space we do then what little they're getting.

It does look pretty good to be honest.

The question is WHY did Tesla wrap it that way?

"Hey, we got this awesome CyberTruck, but if you want you can make it look like a Ford F150 EV"
Someone obviously thought it would be funny.

To be fair it does have a larger bed. I prefer the larger frunk as well, but the overall cargo volume is probably about same.

It seems like the cyber trucks relatively higher bed rails would complicate loading bulk materials or at least create additional risk. Not that anyone's going to run out and drop a yard of mulch in the brand new truck, but eventually people are going to and that fin bed rail just makes me nervous.

I picked up a yard of mulch 2 weeks after I got my Lightning even used a shovel on the freshly painted bed and scratched it all up (no bed liner) it's a truck I'll get a bedliner when I get my tax money next year I'm not super protective over the beds paint 😜 I went 4 years doing all kinds of projects with the bed of my 2018 F150 also without a bed liner the whole time

Perhaps it's the only way to make a "cartoon" truck look like a real truck...

More photos, now on the street. My visual cortex is very confused looking at this thing--I'm assuming it's how a Lion feels when it looks at a herd of Zebra.

Jim Farley needs to do a Cybertruck Wrap on a Lightning ASAP.

Ford would never bother to troll Qlon by wrapping a Lightning like a CyBertRuCk since the cYbeRTrucK mocks itself.
