It's funny, the world was excited for basically a teched out Toyota Tundra with shitloads of battery. The designers were ready to build that, and they could have kept literally everything else the same (steer by wire, steel skin, glass, bed cover, etc) and everyone would have been happy.
Even looking weird people were excited for it.
But then they deleted half the range and doubled the price and ::pikachu face:: everyone hates it.
Sure, musk was the reason it looks weird, but I'd be willing to bet he's 100% the reason for those other things too, because they likely had to cut weight and size to make it's weird look physical possible.
(I'd still buy it if it had 500+ range)
it was the style of the time
They're bringing a salvage tug. Not a big show of confidence in that selection.

Ah, so he boofed it.
Sontar-ha!
Unless you've been DuckTypeCast, in which case you can be anything (this is what happened to Gary Oldman)
This is the correct answer because Russia is going to claim they're doing it regardless.
They're probably all too busy working on Half Life 3
And then helicoptering it around the room.
They could replace the skin with foam board, but all that weight savings would just let them reduce the battery to save more on the manufacturing costs.
FYI, it only weighs about 400lbs more than the F150 Lightning, so the skin probably doesn't add much weight over a traditional truck skin. The four wheel steering tech and glass roof probably add more.
