There's something tragic about Cybertruck owners, and it's nothing to do with Elon.

They seem to be wildly impressed by their vehicle doing the most mediocre things that any AWD vehicle can do.

... Elon said he was gonna put monopropellant / cold gas thrusters from the Dragon capsule into the Roadster, at one point.

Musk said the production version will be revealed later this year ahead of the start of production in 2025 and that it will have the previously announced SpaceX package, which will use cold gas thrusters to help the car accelerate and also “fly”— or hover for short distances.

“I think it has a shot at being the most mind-blowing product demo of all time,” Musk said.

Its almost like this guy just fucking says shit, snd idiots believe him, for some reason, even though he's got a well established track record of lying about things that make basically no sense to lie about....

"I'm a world class Diablo player."

... as well as an entire solid decade of making grandiose business / product promises, and then delivering basically 1% of what he promised.

AutoPilot/Full Self Drive is totally real guys, it'll be perfect in a year or two... for a fucking decade.

Dude's blown up or otherwise destroyed about half as many heavy lift launch vehicles as the entire Apollo program, and so far hasn't even achieved orbit, much less with a payload, muchless tested the orbital refueling that his entire Starship system totally fails without.

Remember how we were gonna have rockets replace private jets?

Remember how the Boring company was gonna pay for itself by selling the dirt it dug up as bricks?

How's Hyperloop doing these days?

The best part of winter in Canada is seeing all these dumpster cars disappear when the real snow falls. Though I did spot one not that long ago:

He probably let his Boat Mode subscription expire

uh .. let that sink in?

Elon, "a death boat still counts as a boat."

The only "question" is why would you believe what Elon "promised" at any point?

Okay so if you're going to buy a stupid ass truck that's for show, not for actually using for truck things...

Why not buy a Range Rover?

1. Similarly expensive
2. Last 2 generations (you know, the ones known for being luxury and looks above utility) have 90 CM wading depth.
3. Actually luxurious
4. Not any less reliable than a CyberDumpster (don't compare it to a Toyota though)
5. Actually capable of off-roading, not that anyone's going to take one off road considering the sticker price.

I'm not going to include "does not support a nazi" here, that must be a con for cybertruck buyers.

Did you know it’s bullet proof /s

Shitty Shitty Bang Bang

I wouldn't trust any vehicle to be safe for wading unless it was explicitly designed from the outset for that purpose. There are offroad vehicles with snorkels, and double seals around everything like doors, electronics & batteries which are designed to go through deep water.

The cyberturd... not so much regardless of the lies Elon used to sell it. I would not be surprised if there is small print in the warranty which basically tells people to take a hike if they attempt to use it in the ways Elon has described.

We really should encourage all Cybertrukkk owners to test this 'feature'.

Anything can be a boat when out in water, it's a matter of which boat it is. Most turns Titanic mode.

I guess we found a way to get rid of this ugly truck. Convince them it is a boat?

Fucking "boat mode"? 😂

I feel like I need video of this incEl Camino self destruction in my life. Anybody have a link?

I didn’t know the cybertruck was a Tesla/Oceangate collab.

If anyone still believes in this “truck” they are already lost.

Finally, the one thing missing from our modern day sci-fi Star Trek future was a Self Destruct built in to all our vehicles!

💥😎💥

This article is a year old and the video is two years old for anyone thinking it's recent

Lol strong "I don't want buyer's regret" energy from this guy. Or maybe "I am way out of my league when evaluating how good something is" with perhaps a dash of "boots are delicious".

Like he literally mentions that he can hear water sloshing around in the frame somewhere but then immediately concludes that it'll probably go away on its own sometime in the future. I had a period in my life when I was like that. I consider it my "I had no fucking idea how naive I was or how things worked or how to take care of them" phase, and I was the last person anyone should have taken advice about anything from.

But the unadvertised "Brick Mode" still works perfectly.

The vehicle is only for showing off and definitely not designed for real off-road use, but the driver caused most of the water damage by entering the flood at such high speed. You're not supposed to wade at 20 mph unless you're in a hovercraft

Taking it into a fucking car wash voids the warranty. Boat mode was another lie from the liar in charge

People of little faith, it's just 1 over-the-air update away from becoming a spaceship! /s

FWIW https://elonmusk.today/

I live on a fairly-well-to-do island off the southern coast of Korea with a lot of battery powered vehicles. Our first Cybertruck appeared recently. It's all downhill from here.

Iranian D-Day is going to be...interesting.

I think by now, most paying attention know that, anything promised should be questioned vigourously.
