Tesla Cybertruck

British Ley...- wow, that's harsh....

 

[TomcatViP]

If the car had correct rear visibility, probably the driver would have been able to pick-up the flying parts.

Stay, Rover! Play dead, Rover! Leak oil, Rover! Good boy!

Yikes

See a garbage truck’s CNG cylinders explode after lithium-ion battery fire

It happened recently in Arlington Heights, Illinois.

One of the complaints about SUVs as opposed to proper all terrain vehicles is that SUVs get stuck in places where a tow truck can't reach them. Tesla's boffins have found a way to deal with that.

All I will say is that my late father had several British Leyland cars, and a couple of my former work colleagues also drove them, and while they were not exactly good gars, none of them had body panels held on with double sided tape, or that fell of when driving . . .

cheers,
Robin.

I never knew that Cybertrucks only had one wiper.

cheers,
Robin.

Yep, and you cant even use wiper fluid with it because it damages the cameras.
Also apparently the motor shorts out quite frequently if you attempt to use the wiper while its raining

Well trading at ~340 and a fair value range of 50~75, it has been hyped to death over the years.

Now more competition and cheaper vehicles coming out cannot be a good situation.

Never ending recalls as well.

Personally, I don't know how it lasted this long.

But this one has always defied gravity.

Tesla's price is crashing today, down 8.5% at the moment and over 26% since the start of the year after it published sales figures showing year on year its European Tesla sales in the last quarter halved at the same time as the European EV market grew 40%.

New initiative could make Tesla stock 'sink faster than a Cybertruck in quicksand'

Finally got a photo of the Cybertruck which seems to live in or around our little midwestern county seat farm burg.
They are unique looking things, no debate about that.

Here in sunny West Coast SoCal, these days they seem to proliferate/multiply like vermin. "Unique" is an extremely polite term to describe their appearance, like in "Gosh, bless your unique little stainless steely whatchamacallit driving thingy - can you put refrigerator magnets on it?"

As per Ars Technica—you can always make Cybertruck uglier…

MANSORY ELONGATION

Mansory's special sauce will make anything uglier.

Mansory's special sauce will make anything uglier.

Mansory exists purely so that rich people with no taste can annoy poor people by buying a nice car and disfiguring it. At least in this case they turned their penchant for aesthetic soddomisation to a crap bucket.

I somehow like this dirty, weathering steel look. Something for the next mad max movie.

It would have been Richard Serra's car.

Richard Serra, uncompromising American abstract sculptor, dies aged 85

The Californian artist, who died of pneumonia, was known and eventually loved for his massive rusting steel structures now housed in museums around the world

I don't care about Tesla one way or the other. I would encourage the moderators to get rid of the Swasticar nonsense. It looks bad. Really bad.

* And stupid.
