If you can’t safely take the Cybertruck to a car wash, I wonder how it will fare as a boat?

      Yeah, at this point they know they got conned, and they either have to admit that or double down and act wildly impressed at its ability to, like, drive on an unpaved road.

        I read a while back that many of them were shocked the cyber truck didn’t fit in regular parking spaces. In other words, these are people that, for the most part, have never owned a large pickup before. The obvious conclusion is that they bought it for cred or because they think it looks cool, not because they actually need a vehicle that size.

          That’s a common theme, yes. They’ve clearly never owned a pickup truck, and don’t realise what they have is actually pretty bad by pickup truck standards.

          I mean, I don’t think a lot of pickup drivers are aware of the fact that their giant ass truck doesn’t fit in a regular parking space

            They’re aware, I’m sure, but there isn’t much they can do about it if they need to park there. Even Home Depot and Lowe’s have this issue.

        Saw a YouTube video of a guy thoroughly impressed with the glue they use to put cyber trucks together. Glue

          Industrial glue is on another level. The Cybertruck is a piece of trash, but modern epoxies are wild.
