Tesla has been making headlines with its upcoming Cybertruck, which is nearing its first deliveries after its grand unveiling in November 2019. As the electric pickup hits the roads for testing and real-world trials, Tesla seems to be having some fun by wrapping the Cybertruck in various eye-catching designs.
Recent sightings of the camouflaged Cybertruck have piqued the interest of Tesla enthusiasts and automotive enthusiasts alike. Tesla has previously mentioned that the Cybertruck can be wrapped in any color or pattern, and now it seems the company is taking its reputation for playfulness to the next level.
One recent image shared by Greggertruck shows the Cybertruck wrapped to resemble the Ford F-150 Lightning, a move that has raised eyebrows and sparked curiosity. Ford's F-150 Lightning is one of the few all-electric pickups on the market and is set to be a direct competitor to Tesla's Cybertruck, along with offerings from other companies like General Motors and Rivian.
Tesla's approach with the Cybertruck design has been revolutionary, aiming to offer consumers a pickup truck that breaks away from the conventional norms. During the Cybertruck unveiling event, Tesla highlighted the minimal design changes in pickups over the past century and set out to create something truly unique.

However, Tesla being Tesla, it is no stranger to playfully taunting its competitors. The Cybertruck wrapped as the F-150 Lightning is perhaps the latest example of this lighthearted trolling, adding an element of surprise and amusement to the ongoing electric truck rivalry.
In addition to the playful disguise, the image of the wrapped Cybertruck reveals a new detail about the frunk—the front trunk space. While the frunk appears relatively small based on the components visible beneath the hood, it may not be a significant concern as the Cybertruck boasts a large bed and tonneau cover, providing ample storage capacity for everyday use.
As Tesla continues to put the Cybertruck through its paces on public roads, we can expect more intriguing sightings and surprises from the electric vehicle pioneer. With the Cybertruck and F-150 Lightning set to go head-to-head in the electric pickup market, the competition is sure to heat up, and Tesla's playful approach only adds to the excitement surrounding the future of electric trucks.
