I don't hate it. But it does look a little small for some reason.

But I think my favorite thing about how the Lightning looks is that it LOOKS like an F150.

lmao.....that looks like one of their SUV's
It looks a lot like the new bolt and bolt euv...which is terrible. The front end of the original bolt was ok but the new one is just bad. I think it's worse than a Tesla and a lot of people complain about the front design of those.

All GM products are butt ugly, I see the Hummer EV and EV Sport a few times a week as I live near the proving grounds. The Hummer EV looks like one of the worst looking pickups GM ever produced, the Avalanche, and with a cost nearing 125k no thanks

800v charging makes it worth consideration.
Right. If it has better range and charges twice as fast at the same price point then I might be able to get over that front end design.
I'm not a current truck owner and I have little brand loyalty, if Chevy, Ram, or hell even Toyota come out with a more compelling product before I get my lightning delivered I may end up cancelling or selling it. I doubt I'll have any trouble selling the thing for at least the first year or two.

I think the hummer front end looks badass. Too bad it’s so expensive. They’ve made a good, but expensive product

All EVs that look like they have duct tape over their mouths look terrible. The F150 does a good job at making the front look normal. Eventually we will get used to it.

I am ok with wonky looks, as long as they are GOOD wonky looks. I really liked some of the artwork concepts for the Cyber truck before the reveal.

Like this one:

At the rate we're going, I may be able to get one of those before I can even order a Lightning. Looks matter very little to me. Form follows function.

Looks matter less to me than many. But I still can't make myself buy the spaceship look yet. I've tried to come to terms with it, but it just doesn't seem like it would age well.

I can stomach ugly or even homely, but I can't do fake/pretend for some reason.

Now if they look like a spaceship and they actually can hover? I'm in!
