This is nearly April fools joke level. Ignoring the individual aesthetic, it just stands in such stark contrast to the rest of the curved, sleek vehicles in their fleet.

Surprising.

I literally checked my watch to see the date.

  • Yes, the year must have been of some cyberpunk future, because the look is right from there.

    I can't but notice how the "futuristic" car designs from my childhood are now pretty common in mass-produced cars. I suggest the recent sci-fi movie esthetics are going to be common soon enough, and this truck is an example.

    • Because all the people that grew up reading/watching sci-fi ended up as CEOs and important people in business.

Well, trucks aren't usually meant to look curved nor sleek. Those who drive trucks probably wouldn't want one that looked that way.

  • Those that drive trucks want it to show masculinity/power. This is just a triangle on wheels/kids toy.

    • Granted, it looks more like what makers of cheap '80s cyberpunk and post-apocalyptic movies imagined what masculinity/power looks like.

An April Fools joke.. in November.

This is possibly the ugliest car I have ever seen - its less lovable than the Aztek.. somehow.
