Cybertruck

[ZachJump]

I am thinking some huge shipment hit Vegas.

I see them multiple times a day now…I am sure the first time I saw some they were coming back from the race track…but now they are residential

Haha.

article says "The latest recall, which includes almost all of the nearly 12,000 trucks on the road so far..."
it's been available for over six months but only 12k sold so far? does this sound right?

Elon Musk is just like Tony Stark, if Tony Stark was a pampered, brain damaged, immoral degenerate who never invented anything in his life.

I wouldn't be surprised. I've seen 0 in my town and even only a few in Southern California.

I've seen a silver one in grimes. A silver one downtown des moines. And a black one in urbandale.

showing off vinyl wraps on a $80K+ truck will never not be funny

More likely only 12,000 produced & delivered, yes. They are still ramping production. It is a generational leap forward technology in truck form. Nothing like it has ever existed before. Takes time.

Saw a silver one just the other day,.. had a scannable QR code/logo on the door...

Shaq buys a Cybertruck. Gives away a Hellcat.

Hopefully Shaq doesn’t have the same experience as Lamar.

Saw a couple in CA last week.

Definitely ugly things.

Saw my first in the wild yesterday, a white one at Crab House by Westdale in Cedar Rapids.

Goes from 20 to 50 real quick.

 

[BelemNole]

Man, with those real wheels turning I bet it's turn radius is MUCH better than say a 1970s Suburban.
Right? right......

 

[HROT]

Somebody described it as what’d you make in a losing pine derby race entry - and that’s apt.

 

[mnole03]

Elon’s already requested a redesign. Stealing design language from Porsche is certainly an improvement.

 

[Tiny Hands Trump]

When most people see a cybertruck.

I don’t think anybody is actively banging on the way it’s engineered. Dude it’s the way it looks and it’s indefensible.

For the record my next vehicle is most likely a Model Y so this isn’t N anti-Elon/Tesla thing.

The looks are not for everyone. It’s very polarizing.

“It’s time for another “EV math for gas car people”.

My Ram 2500 has a 33 gallon tank and costs me approximately $127 to fill from empty at $3.85

My Cybertruck has a 3.4 gallon tank (123kwh) and cost me approximately $17 to fill up (.14c/kwh)

I am out doing errands / farm deliveries in 84-87 degree zero wind weather and my truck is averaging 319wh/mi. That’s 105mpgE.

My Ram 2500 would average 12-13mpg on the same route.

The Cybertruck is 9x more efficient with its stored energy than a comparable gas truck.

Almost an order of magnitude!
It’s incredible and over time this truck could pay for itself in gas savings alone. In 7,000 miles of driving I’ve already saved $1300

In 150k miles of driving if gas prices stay the same at $3.85ish I will save $26k or more. If I keep it for 300k miles? $50k in fuel savings.

I love that I’m now immune to gas and oil prices and if I wanted to invest in solar I could bring my fuel costs to $0 after the panels are paid off.”



“it’s basically a 600hp heavy duty truck that gets 100mpg. Oh and it’s bulletproof”.

Yeah, just don't take it off road or thru a carwash.

What are they going to figure out? Listen I’d love a Tesla but that thing is ridiculous. I saw one in the wild for the first time this week and it’s just silly. It looks like the old wood models you’d carve when I was a kid, except nobody bothered carving it.

Oh nothing….

“Best farm truck out there and I've been through one too many big diesel trucks. Honestly, I can't ever go back to anything else after using it daily on my farm. Nothing compares to it.”

There is no bed in this truck. None. I’d be very curious what makes it the best farm truck.

What an interesting comment. No bed? It does have a bed and is relative to or near standard size to other trucks in its class.

“None.” What do you mean by this?

You have correctly identified my exaggeration. It’s a small truck bed, especially considering the farm tucks I’ve been involved with.

It is a truck version of the Nissan Cube. But does offer a good way to identify morons.

Holy shit. This is the part of the frame that connects the 11k lbs rated hitch.
