All Black Tesla Cyber Truck. It was a dead flat wrap (I assume) and the wheels were black too. It looks sinister in all black, but still a bit ludicrous.

At a local farm, slowly returning to mother20240816_155502.thumb.jpg.ffd2a81a1927763b887a3569be5c3784.jpg earth.

The smooth rear wheels seem out of place. Most of the wheels of this design that I have seen usually have some sort of a cleated tread pattern. These look like they would just spin and not go anywhere in any muddy field.

Maybe smooth for pavement or tractor drag racing ?  j/k.  Maybe missing treaded tires on those huge wheels?

the wheels like that were used for rolling/packing down ground. at least local to where i am one farmer would have a set of these that were shared and mostly used when laying down tempory tracks such as those used for moving heavier machinery. most of the time they would be pulling 3 roller sets. these wheels mean there were no gaps

Actually, that's the way it arrived off the roll back. Those wheels are just rollers.

Yes, rollers with the sticker still on the tread of a brand new tire. The tires do look pretty old for new tires though. :D

Funny. When I was young I used to think certain cars with black vinyl tops were great. A '66 Malibu comes to mind that's dark blue with a black vinyl top. As an adult I don't care for them anymore.

Yeah I’m more of a white vinyl top guy myself, but what caught my eye was that the Nova I saw was light electric blue, not dark blue but it did look pretty nice. Mind you I saw it from afar and for only about five seconds so I guess anything looks good from that perspective.

I've seen a stock one in a parking lot.  Fascinating to see it in person, noting the subtle curves in the body lines.  They way the body catches light is cool.
