          oh yeah. check WhistlinDiesel’s video link @

          frame snapped when he tried towing an f series pickup

          in a later video he made sure to beat on the f series, and while the frame did bend, it wasn’t a sudden catastrophic failure

          a quick summary from some website

          The F-150’s steel frame didn’t break, but bent under extreme abuse - unlike the Cybertruck’s catastrophic failure. The Cybertruck’s aluminum frame is unfixable after being torn apart - unlike the F-150 which can be repaired or replaced easily. Despite the haters, WhistlinDiesel’s extreme testing proved the F-150’s durability, while the Cybertruck suffered irreparable damage

    Warning: Pregnant women, the elderly, and children under 10 should avoid prolonged exposure to CyberTruck.

    Caution: CyberTruck may suddenly accelerate to dangerous speeds.

    CyberTruck contains a liquid core, which, if exposed due to rupture, should not be touched, inhaled, or looked at.

    Do not use CyberTruck on concrete.

    Discontinue use of CyberTruck if any of the following occurs: itching; vertigo; dizziness; tingling in extremities; loss of balance coordination; slurred speech temporary blindness; profuse sweating or heart palpitations.

    If CyberTruck begins to smoke, get away immediately. Seek shelter and cover head.

    CyberTruck may stick to certain types of skin.

    When not in use, CyberTruck should be returned to its special container and kept under refrigeration. Failure to do so relieves the makers of CyberTruck, Elon Musk, and its parent company, Tesla, of any and all liability.

    Do not taunt CyberTruck.

        Warranty lasts as long as cybertruck is working. After that - your problem.

    It bewilders me that such a vehicle made it out of testing and onto public roads with the sheer amount of poor design issues it has.

    Sounds like the best possible place to have a fire. Isn’t the only advice for putting out an EV battery fire “pour as much water as possible on it for several hours until it burns itself out”?

      Yes. Water doesn’t directly help it go out since the batteries are fine burning in water but if you carry away enough heat then you csn

      No, you don’t need to douse it in a substance it readily reacts with… I don’t know where this farce comes from, but it doesn’t corport wirth reality unless the point is to literally burn the fire out by fueling it. Like putting a bellows on a coal fire…

    I saw a cyber truck with the default paint and it looks like a 20 year old car already.

    The jet black painted ones kinda look cool, until I remember the car itself sucks ass.
