I genuinely do not think I could every own a Tesla for the shear fact that they are simply badly built (forgetting the fact they have no soul, but that's more subjective lol)
Nissan has been garbage since the Renault thing in 2001. Sad, I was a Nissan kid and loved all their sports cars. I’m a Toyota fan now, just a 2012 highlander limited with 230,000 miles and everything on it works, the light for the gear shifter indicator went out though, so I’ll add $2 into my maintenance expenses 😂
@@BySixaIs the Landcruiser 70 series available where you live? That thing has legendary reliability (probably due to how basic it is). It's the go-to vehicle for the Australian outback and farms, where it's expected to travel hundreds of thousands of kilometres throughout its life in the middle of absolutely nowhere. It's so popular that the new model has a waiting time of up to 24 months.
One thing that stood out when opening the door is that the easy way to open it requires you to grab weather stripping. I can’t see that lasting long and creating tones of wind noise. Among all the over minimalist stuff like climate controls harder to find/use, the horrible blind spots and wiper. Minimalist doesn’t mean better
@@--SPQR--It took tesla over a year to not fix the rear lights on my model S filling with water whenever it rained. in the end I just gave up. I wish that had been the only problem with it but it was by far the worst car I've owned since I was driving around shitboxes as a kid and it was worse than quite a few of those.
I'm glad some countries are making physical buttons and nobs mandatory for certain functions. Screens are dangerous when you have to look away from the road.
Australia and Europe ( ancap and ncap). Key functions will need to be physical controls to get a 5 star safety rating. These include indicators, hazard lights, horns, warning lights, windscreen wipers, and emergency 'SOS' features.

Someone likely broke the door after delivery Edit: Elon confirmed on X that 15 Cybertrucks are affected by this, it is a door latch that have not been properly fastened from factory. It comes loose after driving so there would be no problem at the service center. THIS IS NOT A PANEL GAP 🤷♂️
Tesla has you make note of defects and then you schedule a trip to the service center after delivery. So they either haven't scheduled it, accepted it as is, or it broke after delivery.
You don’t mess with geese. They are aggressive birds. I once was got chased out of a park by a family of geese. they kept following me around and honking at me.
so i dont mind the cybertruck aesthetics at all… i love the truck delorean look. and taste is in the eye of the beholder. what i do mind is how cheap everything looks for a luxury vehicle. if i buy an expensive car i want expensive car things. i want my panels to match. i dont want them to have spared expense on a 20$ led display. i dont want them to have neglected to test how real people would open the car and fingerprints would form or how expensive bespoke wipers dont work well on rain. i dont want a car that cant be bothered to ship me a hubcap on release. like some of it is the perils of a low vin number car… but most of it is cutting corners when the consumer is a spared no expense person…. im a spare no expense consumer for large purchases. get it right in the quality of life stuff. dont skimp on 100$ when i paid 100k.
Thats why it is shaped this way. Not for a spacy look - it is just extremely cheap to use straight metal sheets instead of giving it a detailed, curved surface. But it is still a very expensive car, just because everything is done over the touch screen - even the glove box.
their competition with all the bells and whistles loose money on every sale. Better to cut out less important features and be able to stay in business.
Part of cutting cost is not simple material cost, it's development. For example putting a rear camera feed onto the rear view mirror... If you work through every bit of custom electronics and software added, it's more engineering that adds up as you capture every bell and whistle that real modern cars have
The funniest joke about this monstrosity is the people who paid so much for so little. This is a huge exercise in mental gymnastics on how to justify the sheer embarrassment of being stuck with it.
I like how in the basics category, about 1000 miles with the vehicle, and the door is already discolored to a black color where you open and shut the door simply by touching the door. On top of not even being properly fitted together. Truly, a truck of all times.
well, remember the DeLorean? was made using stainless too and they had to put on a clear coat when people started complaining about getting stains on the stainless outer hull. same here, one thinks.
@@wolfhalupka8992yea but elon musk knows more about manafacturing than anyone on the planet! so how come he couldn’t predict that untreated stainless steel is a fucking terrible idea
Agreed. The lights alone aren't aimed towards the road to limit the lights being blasted into people's faces. At its size, that thing is blinding literally everyone on the road. And did you see the drivers field of view from inside of that thing? That is definitely one of the worst I've seen.
I agree....although, I do have a visceral hatred towards it's appearance, as well. I hoped that I might hate it a little less once I saw it in person...but, no - it is even more repulsive. I don't care to share the road with Elon's vanity project.
It's almost enough to make me wish they were legal in my country because I would drain that everywhere I saw it as would many people now they know that. Dudes who got one of these need "I'm a d-head" tattooed on their forehead.
The year is 2027. I'm careening down a hill and my brakes give out. I can see someone about to cross the street up ahead. I tell my virtual assistant to honk my horn. No response, there is no reception in the area. No biggie, I fire up the touch screen. Swipe away the software update, I can get to that later. Scroll down the menu and hit the 'honk' button. A short delay but functions perfectly. 10/10. Hats off to the developers Edit: This is meant to be a joke. I understand there is a horn on the steering wheel. It pokes fun at how so many things are moving to the touchscreen. I don't expect them to actually move the honk button to the media screen in 2027 unless they are actually insane.
This vehicle, as a concept, has taught me to be grateful for the big auto manufacturers and how much R&D is present in their vehicles. When someone buys a Toyota or a Ford, they don't have to worry about which parts of their vehicle design was intentional and which parts were "that would be cool" features.
not trying to defend the "philosophy" behind tesla (or any other thing controlled by elon), but car-designs are full of things that are meant to engage with our senses of asthetics, e.g. the smell, the sound of closing the doors. not saying this is analogous to every single thing tesla would call a "cool feature" of the cybertruck, but i think its worth mentioning.
To be clear, I'm not saying manufacturers like Ford or Toyota don't have their own flaws, but they've had a lot of time and money into working out the kinks. Tesla is still new in the grand scheme of things and to that end, of course they'll still have a lot of issues to work out. I imagine their production models in 10, 20, 30 years from now will be much, much better in build quality, but my criticism is more in regards to the novelty baked into the Cyber truck, things like choosing a touch screen for every interior function. Touch screens are nice, sure, but are we only doing it because "future = touch screen", or does it actually improve the ergonomic functionality for the driver? I think not, and in fact it detracts from the driver being able to make quick adjustments without taking their eyes off the road. With analog knobs and buttons, there's a potential for building muscle memory to a point where the driver can interact with the controls without ever giving it a second thought. With a touch screen, it's not impossible but significantly less intuitive. I'm not even a car person, this was just a criticism I had of the cybertruck mostly but generally Tesla as a whole.
Looks like the physical equivalent of the gaming world is with us. You buy your car in a half built state and the DLC (“door level calibration”) gets you the finished product.
Over the air updates are essentially a scam. They let manufactures ship products with missing features on the promise of adding them later, which they may or may not.
Stainless steel, why it is bad: 1. Expensive 2. Heavy 3. Stiff 4. Hard to work with 5. Tarnishes over time The only things I liked are the back tires and the steering. I hope other car manufactures copy these two things.
I was not prepared for how bad the fingerprints were going to be. Makes sense to anyone who has owned a stainless steel fridge, but it indeed affects the side view.
I saw another one on the road and it was even worse than this one. Stainless steal is famously impossible to keep clean, so these trucks will all look filthy unless they’re cleaned militantly.
Anyone that would drop a 100K for something like this isn't going to care about quality. They want to be the first in their neighborhood to have one. Tesla doesn't care because they know those people will buy it anyway and they are right.
FFS that’s NOT a “panel gap”. Talk about ignorance!! It’s simply a door catch that needs adjusting- a job than anyone can do in a minute or two with the most basic of tools.
It looks like to sell this in Europe they would have to make a large number of pedestrian safety changes to the design. 3:31 I can imagine the front of that wheel arch amputating a limb during a side swipe.
Seems like in the US nobody cares about pedestrians. What matters is just looks and the fear instilling factor. Never felt like Musk seemed too concerned about all the Autopilot (?) induced dead bodies in the past.
I just hope it will never be allowed on the road as it is now here in the Netherlands. Not because I'm hating on the car, all things considered it's not for me even if I could afford it, but I can totally get someone loving it. We're a small country with many, many cyclists and pedestrians, narrow roads and a lot of these roads have cleverly shared space for pedestrians, cyclists and cars. It would be an accident waiting to happen on our roads TBH.
Ironically Edsels actually have better build quality than this steel box! It was really the 57 recession and that godawful grill that killed the Edsel.
elon so smart he gives all of us peons a new feature called removing the spare tire. "just get rid of it, none of my rich friends have ever needed one of these before, who has ever had to change a tire? i'm seriously so smart."
I mean.. People buy and love their Ferraris and Aston Martins. They're not very well build, but they are full of emotion and that's why you buy them. So is Tesla. It's not the build quality, the materials or the materials, but it's all about the gimmick. About the car that was drawn by a child, but that will give you childlike joy.
@@EUCKid I don't know. But if you have som much money to spend, than sometimes you want to be extra with it. You could easily buy a german engineered car like an Audi S8, BMW M8, a C63 AMG or a 911 GTS, and those cars are well build, great quality, but it sometimes lacks the extravagance. It lacks the x factor, the je ne sais qoui, that comes with the other "imperfect" brands. People love a good Rolex yet it is totally acceptable that it doesn't have the most precise clockwork out there. You could get a better product with a good old G-Shock, but it's not what most people look for. And Tesla has beclem such a brand that has its crazy fellowship that would defend it to death, just like Apple to name another american overhyped brand. In the end, it's just important to know what you're in for. If I buy Ducati than I will get one of the best looking, good sounding and great performing bikes in the world, that cpuld potentially break if I sneeze to hard on it. You can go with a more reliable and cheaper Honda, but where is the fun in that.

@@donkanis6141Maybe you should check out elons history from any source besides elon. Maybe start by learning what companies he founded (none, except for the solar city scam w his brother). Or go watch one of the 100s of interviews he's given claiming we are going to be refueling on X planet, and taking family vacations to visit planets Y and Z. Physics and common sense make these claims impossible. The man he was going to put in Mars in 2021? Or the armada of 100x spacecrafts carrying 10-100 crew? Oh, dont forget the helper robot that he hyped and pumped the stock for 2 years about before bringing out a dude in a suit to dance. Space X rocket is literally incompatible with life. As in math, physics say so... ya know, stuff engineers worry about while Elon mops up credit and deflects any responsibility. He's never founded anything, certainly not tesla. He's not an engineer. He's not responsible for anything, but a handful of exceptionally dumb modifications for aesthetic reasons that ended up jacking the manufacturing costs up and often being objectively worse functionally. Then he goes out and runs his mouth promising misleading tech/features that sometimes the engineers are able to make happen, and other times (full self driving) charging for features thatll never exist. Some would say fraudulently manipulates tesla stock prices, but as long as bankers are making $ along the way he won't be held accountable.
The fact that they decided to put a gaming PC in the center but no dashboard or HUD in front of the driver tells you everything you need to know about this company's priorities when building anything.
I will stick to my old land rover, can tow a small excavator, will do 1000 km on full tank, wipers are super cheap and easy to replace battery. Oh and after 24 years it's still rust free on the body as it's aluminium. Decent review though and I wish you years and years of fun with it!
My Model Y had a few quality issues as well. Not too bad. To be fair every new car I’ve owned has quality issues. My Pontiac was horrible. My Ford was poor. My new Jetta had issues as well.
@@erichannes6392 come on no german car looks like that.. we dont drive jetta where im from, those models are for the american marked... it looks like a german car that have been in a accident the only time i have seen something that was ot aligned and had gaps like this, is when cars gets in a crash even old russian cars and east block cars ar better put together i drive vw and yes i got a new screen in mine, but i could not spot the problem.. vw just told be there was a pixel fault in some of them, when the car was at service i can sell my vw for the price i gave for it, no way cybertruck owners will get that experince, when they have driven the car for some years 1 year ago i could have sold it for more the i paid for it, because vw stopped production of that model
When you mentioned that most people would use this like an SUV, it made me think of my 2017 Volvo XC90 Excellence plug-in hybrid. I got it for less than the base price Cybertruck. 4 seater with front and rear heated/cooled/massaging captain's chairs. Nice, big functional center display without sacrificing all the tactile controls. AWD with adjustable suspension that climbs Colorado mountains in winter like a goat. And I've towed 5,000 lbs on multiple occasions. So congratulations Elon on delivering in 2024 what I've essentially had for 7 years. Oh, your "truck" is full electric and has a big honking wiper. So you have that.
All those finger prints (if that is what they are) along the edges of the doors look awful. A stainless steel finish sounds great, but in practice I think it's going to be a constant battle to keep it looking good. Also, I believe that if you don't keep it clear of corrosive things like bird droppings, it can leave marks which are very difficult to remove. Clear coat has its advantages.
The rust on the wheel hub is the same rust any vehicle with an exposed hub will have. Often before they even leave the dealer. Usually it is covered by the hun cap or center cap bit ot os still there.
The metal has no protective coating on it, because Elon Musk is a complete idiot. Using the car under any conditions will stain the metal. You can't even wash it like a normal car, because it will stain. Pure garbage.
@@arconium2571mmmm yes it’s just fine. My truck with a small bed, now has no bed as I want to drive a decent distance and not be fucked if I get a flat.
From someone with 20 years in transportation, 95% of people never touch the spare they just call a tow truck. The battery isn't needed because truck don't have as much daily mileage. Take much less time to charge than fill up a traditional tank.
"You just have to expect that if you get an early VIN you will have to deal with bad quality control" feels like such a cop out. Don't defend companies that can't bother to do proper quality control for a vehicle that costs 100 grand
Man you are exactly right. Almost everyone buys a truck just too look cool, not to do any actual truck stuff. All these new pick ups have a 4 food bed, that's useless for actual work.
Drove one of these. The squeeks and rattles in a 100k vehicle are laughable. But i couldn't laugh in front of the owner in case he leaves me on the roadside😂
4:07 Whoever mounted those tires didn't even try 🤣 For those who might not know, that red dot on the tire marks the heaviest spot and it is supposed to be lined up with the valve stem as that is the lightest spot on the rim. When the high spot is almost 180 degrees out like that it takes way more weight to balance. The large amount of stick on weights can actually be seen just above the valve stem.
I worked in a Vauxhall van plant for a year. If ANYONE let a van go with a panel gap like that, the whole line would of probably been fired. Thats shocking
I live about a hour from Austin and have seen 3 CTs on the road and over a dozen parked around the city. Never have I seen a panel gap like that. Part of me wants to close that door to see for myself, tho.
In Germany it would be a complete shutdown of the whole production line until it is fixed. The lack of the QM is really frightening. Where else do they accept compromises? Well not that the whole concept of this car would ever even be considered road safe anywhere in the EU.
i think its anout time that a side light turns on, like a white LED array, whenever you activate the turning signal, it maybe turning on on the direction you're turning or both.. to help you see, the road or the condition of the road where you're turning.. it really helps, specially at total darkness conditions.. this is very useful to large vehicles like the cybertruck or F150 lightning.. gets you aware of the situation of the surrounding where you're turning...
Not being able to easily smash the windows in the event of a crash is alarming. It will never be allowed to sell in the UK , Due to the sharp angles and the lack of a crumple zone. The body suffers from staining and some people have found rusting at various points. Having everything done by the screen for me is distracting and dangerous But it does look great .
I'm sorry but, with every negative thing you say, you always seem to try and downplay it. - "People complain about panel gaps, but I don't care about them and this is literally the worst one I've seen" - "Yes, it doesn't have the wheel caps yet, but we will get them in the future." - "There is a little bit of rust inside the rim, but it's the only place I've seen rust" The amount of times you say "negative thing x", only to follow it up with "but in the future", "but it doesn't bother me personally" and the likes is honestly pretty bad. It's no secret to most of your followers, that you're kind of biased towards Tesla, but I really wonder if that bias won't eventually damage your credibility as a reviewer, at least in the car spectrum
wow, people receive words very differently, what I get from viewing those point you mentioned in the video and feeling the tone Is "I paid for all these shit that I didn't get it with the truck I receive, and "allegedly" will get in the future with a high level of doubt" and the panel gaps point, didn't that make the point especially bad, opposite of downplaying it? it's "even a guy who normally don't mind panel gaps can't stand the gaping gap of the cyber truck door"
I just love the little touches that show you how little Tesla cares. Like the fact that you're spending nearly $100k on this thing and they couldn't be bothered to wire up another $30 screen to put the rear view in the correct place.
"you how little Tesla cares" - Teslas are the most safe veichles on the road and every time they aim to the highest score in tests. They don't care what is the minimal bar to be ok on the road. they always aim to the max. that's what they care about
@@carloorelli3538 That's a particularly hilarious comment considering the cybertruck isn't even road legal in the EU because of how UNsafe it is. For pedestrians it's a death machine and for passengers it's a death box as there's basically no crumple zones.
Kudos! I want to complement you on your thorough description. I really enjoyed your opinions and references to other competitors as well. I especially liked how you differentiated the "truck things" vs "it's a large SUV" - I personally agree with you that most of the people interested in EV trucks will use them like large SUVs.
I think its why MKB chose this CyberTruck instead of his. His "Beast" version was above average, but he wanted to showcase the lemons. On the plus side, Tesla service comes to you and eventually the fitment issues get worked out as production increases. Model S,X,3,Y all have problems for the first year of production.
I've seen a lot of Cybertruck reviews by now and what stands out to me is that Tesla had an idea, with a specific design, which they stubbornly stuck with regardless of all the practical obstacles they encountered during development. Things we take for granted in other cars like efficiency of windshield wipers, the need for physical buttons and a freaking door handle. Or even the shape of the front. That vertical, huge flat slab of metal on the front of the Cybertruck is gonna have a lot of small dents from road pebbles.
It’s not that Tesla and its talented engineers had an idea, but that Elon had an idea and even the best efforts of the engineers to make it work left gaping compromises that couldn’t be smoothed over
It's not been a moth that a freaking billionaire drowned inside a Tesla that went into 6ft of water As soon as the eletronics in that car died she was inside a metal coffin In no serious country that would fly A billionaire died for fucks sake, that's the only class of people the US seems to care about
Can't be sold in Australia because it's too dangerous for other road users. Also we have enough distractions for single guys to use for impressing other single guys.
Hearing that full self driving beta is not available/compatible is a relief. We really don't need a rigid frame vehicle covered in stainless steel death panels making dangerous maneuvers on the road and causing fatal accidents. It shouldn't see self driving until the feature is out of beta (if ever).
Great review, probably the best I've seen so far for the Cybertruck. I've experienced the head turning effect from my first BMW i3, back when they were brand new, and then my Model X. I'm always happy to show it to people who are interested (which is pretty much everyone). I do hope they can build a right hand drive version for us in the UK though, otherwise car parks and drive-thru restaurants will be hard work. We're getting a preview in the tomorrow in London. I just need to convince my wife that this is the "camper van" we should be buying instead of an ID Buzz.
“The truck itself is a bit of a celebrity”!🤣 The serious look on Marques’s face when he said that, it’s almost like the cyber truck is a spoiled rich kid and Marques is trying to talk quietly so the truck doesn’t hear him!😂
Unfortunately this wouldn’t be allowed in UK/Europe due to safety concerns. Too many sharp edges no give on the bonnet or hood, plus it won’t fit in our tiny roads
@@tubadukIt shouldn't be legal in the US either, but here we are. Elon might be paying off or bribing NHTSA. They are already suspected of being super corrupt during the Trump admin. Which is why new truck generations are completely breaking safety design laws with their massive grills that would kill children and peds easily.
My Rivian is amazing. I was 1200 in line for a CT, but there is no way I would take on this thing. What this could have been with all that tech etc... What it actually is :(
I was walking in an outdoor mall type place (Domain in Austin) and a cyber truck drove by. I told my wife "look, the cybertruck" as another guy told his wife near us "that's the cybertruck" and 2 more feet over as we kept walking this lady told her mom "it's called the cyber truck."
Got to love a review on a truck without ever mentioning a single thing that would make it useable as a truck. Owners of electric trucks usually have not owned trucks before and it shows. And I love when he praised the 240V port because you can charge another car and then immediately transitions to how terrible the battery range is. 😂 Who's going to charge you?
He specifically mentioned how Truck owners dont really do Truck things and how the Cybertruck uses that knowledge of the market by not actually being excellent for "trucky" activities. Are you really that bad at paying attention? If people buy trucks because they want to compensate for small genitals, rather than for wanting to do "trucky" things, thats not Teslas fault.
Lets be fair there are some practical electric trucks like rivian though theyre expensive. I think elon and his aesthetics designers are just morons and so are their customers.
The funniest thing about the Cybertruck is the amount of haters that always come out furiously mashing their keyboards at every chance they get online, and yet how much absolute love it gets in real life. The divergence is stupendous and perplexing at the same time.
saw one on the road for the first time recently and was shocked at the size. I immediately felt unsafe driving next to it. the wideness is INSANE to see in person.
Marques driving his 911 now understands build quality vs tech! Appreciate the candid reviews and having a well rounded opinion when you spend $100k+ on a vehicle
Ah, the Tesla Truck, the pinnacle of vehicular innovation, where you pay a premium to embark on a futuristic journey akin to buying a high-end smartphone but with the features of a flip phone. It's like acquiring a deluxe, overpriced electric paperweight on wheels. You get the unique opportunity to experience all the drawbacks of electric vehicle ownership, combined with the quality you'd expect from a budget ride at best. Basic features? Oh, those are for the weak. Who needs functionality when you can bask in the glow of trendy inadequacy, right? In essence, buying a Tesla Truck is making a declaration. A declaration that you value the image of innovation over actual utility, that you're willing to ignore the glaring deficiencies for the sake of being part of a "movement", one that's less about automotive excellence, and more about flaunting a badge of modernity.
Gotta love the "logic" behind having a pull strap instead of just pulling down like EVERY other car/SUV/Truck out there. Also interesting to see that it moves a good bit before pulling the tab...
I live in southern California and I see a few Cybertrucks every now and then but I was in San Jose and Santa Cruz last week and I must've seen a thousand of them. It's like people are getting them out of cereal boxes.
All I remember was the big screen, the Awesome sound system and the fantastic intelligent suspension. It's basically a n electric mobile movie theater is what I'm hearing. If they manage to get the suspension to move with the action of the movie you are watching you can invite 4 friends over to experience a nice evening in your cool movie theater truck.

- Love novelty
- don’t actually need a truck
- are super rich
- enjoy endangering everyone around them

Nissan has been garbage since the Renault thing in 2001. Sad, I was a Nissan kid and loved all their sports cars. I’m a Toyota fan now, just a 2012 highlander limited with 230,000 miles and everything on it works, the light for the gear shifter indicator went out though, so I’ll add $2 into my maintenance expenses 😂

@@BySixaIs the Landcruiser 70 series available where you live? That thing has legendary reliability (probably due to how basic it is). It's the go-to vehicle for the Australian outback and farms, where it's expected to travel hundreds of thousands of kilometres throughout its life in the middle of absolutely nowhere.
It's so popular that the new model has a waiting time of up to 24 months.
One thing that stood out when opening the door is that the easy way to open it requires you to grab weather stripping. I can’t see that lasting long and creating tones of wind noise. Among all the over minimalist stuff like climate controls harder to find/use, the horrible blind spots and wiper. Minimalist doesn’t mean better
I noticed that too. Any day now Elon will announce he invented handles.

Apparently, the door strikers are loosening up in the field, which might be even worse.
I'm glad some countries are making physical buttons and nobs mandatory for certain functions. Screens are dangerous when you have to look away from the road.
I’m curious, which countries?
Australia and Europe ( ancap and ncap). Key functions will need to be physical controls to get a 5 star safety rating. These include indicators, hazard lights, horns, warning lights, windscreen wipers, and emergency 'SOS' features.
So not fully compulsory, but a requirement for 5 star rating.
The minimalism of the interior makes me genuinely sad. There's almost nothing in it. Fewer things and it would be a plain metal box.
I like heating and volume with physical buttons.

so i dont mind the cybertruck aesthetics at all… i love the truck delorean look. and taste is in the eye of the beholder. what i do mind is how cheap everything looks for a luxury vehicle. if i buy an expensive car i want expensive car things. i want my panels to match. i dont want them to have spared expense on a 20$ led display. i dont want them to have neglected to test how real people would open the car and fingerprints would form or how expensive bespoke wipers dont work well on rain. i dont want a car that cant be bothered to ship me a hubcap on release.
like some of it is the perils of a low vin number car… but most of it is cutting corners when the consumer is a spared no expense person…. im a spare no expense consumer for large purchases. get it right in the quality of life stuff. dont skimp on 100$ when i paid 100k.
Thats why it is shaped this way. Not for a spacy look - it is just extremely cheap to use straight metal sheets instead of giving it a detailed, curved surface. But it is still a very expensive car, just because everything is done over the touch screen - even the glove box.
Them cutting corners on like a $100k vehicle is absolutely wild

The year is 2027. I'm careening down a hill and my brakes give out. I can see someone about to cross the street up ahead. I tell my virtual assistant to honk my horn.

A short delay but functions perfectly. 10/10. Hats off to the developers

This vehicle, as a concept, has taught me to be grateful for the big auto manufacturers and how much R&D is present in their vehicles. When someone buys a Toyota or a Ford, they don't have to worry about which parts of their vehicle design was intentional and which parts were "that would be cool" features.
not trying to defend the "philosophy" behind tesla (or any other thing controlled by elon), but car-designs are full of things that are meant to engage with our senses of asthetics, e.g. the smell, the sound of closing the doors. not saying this is analogous to every single thing tesla would call a "cool feature" of the cybertruck, but i think its worth mentioning.
every other company over engineers the ever living shit out of their cars, ford in particular.
@@killingtimeitself Tesla are the most over-engineered cars in existence and somehow they have the worst quality in the western hemisphere.
To be clear, I'm not saying manufacturers like Ford or Toyota don't have their own flaws, but they've had a lot of time and money into working out the kinks. Tesla is still new in the grand scheme of things and to that end, of course they'll still have a lot of issues to work out. I imagine their production models in 10, 20, 30 years from now will be much, much better in build quality, but my criticism is more in regards to the novelty baked into the Cyber truck, things like choosing a touch screen for every interior function. Touch screens are nice, sure, but are we only doing it because "future = touch screen", or does it actually improve the ergonomic functionality for the driver? I think not, and in fact it detracts from the driver being able to make quick adjustments without taking their eyes off the road. With analog knobs and buttons, there's a potential for building muscle memory to a point where the driver can interact with the controls without ever giving it a second thought. With a touch screen, it's not impossible but significantly less intuitive.
I'm not even a car person, this was just a criticism I had of the cybertruck mostly but generally Tesla as a whole.
Yeah reminds me a little bit of the car, which Homer designed in one of the Simpsons episodes..
Is the crumple zone going to be added with a software update too, or will the drivers get turned to mash in accidents?

Stainless steel, why it is bad:
1. Expensive
2. Heavy
3. Stiff
4. Hard to work with
5. Tarnishes over time
The only things I liked are the back tires and the steering. I hope other car manufactures copy these two things.
That has to be the most golf cart looking steering wheel I've ever seen in a vehicle.
I was not prepared for how bad the fingerprints were going to be. Makes sense to anyone who has owned a stainless steel fridge, but it indeed affects the side view.
I saw another one on the road and it was even worse than this one.
Stainless steal is famously impossible to keep clean, so these trucks will all look filthy unless they’re cleaned militantly.
Pretty sure there’s a coating you can wipe on that prevents fingerprints.
Tony Hawk rubbed my nipples and called it a bs mctwist 720.
They already showed using barkeepers friend gets rid of it all.. like your fridge
So where is it…
the fact that tesla is comfortable shipping a car with a panel gap of that size baffles me
They're not comfortable with it. They just have terrible quality control. They have all along.
High priced garbage
Anyone that would drop a 100K for something like this isn't going to care about quality. They want to be the first in their neighborhood to have one. Tesla doesn't care because they know those people will buy it anyway and they are right.

It looks like to sell this in Europe they would have to make a large number of pedestrian safety changes to the design. 3:31 I can imagine the front of that wheel arch amputating a limb during a side swipe.
Seems like in the US nobody cares about pedestrians. What matters is just looks and the fear instilling factor. Never felt like Musk seemed too concerned about all the Autopilot (?) induced dead bodies in the past.
So Apartheid Elmo basically built an Edsel-truck that will kill pedestrians in ANY type of collision. What a boon to mankind.
I just hope it will never be allowed on the road as it is now here in the Netherlands.
Not because I'm hating on the car, all things considered it's not for me even if I could afford it, but I can totally get someone loving it.
We're a small country with many, many cyclists and pedestrians, narrow roads and a lot of these roads have cleverly shared space for pedestrians, cyclists and cars.
It would be an accident waiting to happen on our roads TBH.
Ironically Edsels actually have better build quality than this steel box! It was really the 57 recession and that godawful grill that killed the Edsel.
Imagine paying 20k for a new competitor to luxury watches and the hour marks are printed off-centre...
elon so smart he gives all of us peons a new feature called removing the spare tire. "just get rid of it, none of my rich friends have ever needed one of these before, who has ever had to change a tire? i'm seriously so smart."
I mean.. People buy and love their Ferraris and Aston Martins. They're not very well build, but they are full of emotion and that's why you buy them.

- "People complain about panel gaps, but I don't care about them and this is literally the worst one I've seen"
- "Yes, it doesn't have the wheel caps yet, but we will get them in the future."
- "There is a little bit of rust inside the rim, but it's the only place I've seen rust"
The amount of times you say "negative thing x", only to follow it up with "but in the future", "but it doesn't bother me personally" and the likes is honestly pretty bad. It's no secret to most of your followers, that you're kind of biased towards Tesla, but I really wonder if that bias won't eventually damage your credibility as a reviewer, at least in the car spectrum
wow, people receive words very differently, what I get from viewing those point you mentioned in the video and feeling the tone
Is "I paid for all these shit that I didn't get it with the truck I receive, and "allegedly" will get in the future with a high level of doubt"
and the panel gaps point, didn't that make the point especially bad, opposite of downplaying it?
it's "even a guy who normally don't mind panel gaps can't stand the gaping gap of the cyber truck door"
Thanks. I was planning to live with the Tesla Cybertruck. Now I don't have to.
Savage Geese in a car review video...
He would be proud😂
Beat me to it...damn lol

Dammit.
4:48 - That might be the worst door closing sound iv ever heard 🤣
Cause it wasn't closed.
He didn't shut it the whole way, sounds like there's something up with the latch.
@@shootermcgavin3077He said literally less than 10 seconds later that this is how its supposed to look
@@Atlastheyote222 What even he said, it is off course a latch issue that will be solved easily.
@@didierpuzenat7280pretty raggedy for such an expensive car tho isn't it? I wouldn't expect issues like this on a Volkswagen or a Toyota.
Love my F150 Lightning XLT. Perfect mix of analog and tech.
The pt cruiser was a celebrity for a while too😅😅😂😂😂
I just love the little touches that show you how little Tesla cares. Like the fact that you're spending nearly $100k on this thing and they couldn't be bothered to wire up another $30 screen to put the rear view in the correct place.
"you how little Tesla cares" - Teslas are the most safe veichles on the road and every time they aim to the highest score in tests. They don't care what is the minimal bar to be ok on the road. they always aim to the max. that's what they care about
Same problem as Apple useless shit
@@carloorelli3538STFU tesla fanboy. go talk to a therapist. smh
@@carloorelli3538 That's a particularly hilarious comment considering the cybertruck isn't even road legal in the EU because of how UNsafe it is. For pedestrians it's a death machine and for passengers it's a death box as there's basically no crumple zones.
@@Aevinish Only the cybertruck though.
The cars on the other end do sell here.
Thank you for the KM range conversion. Audience outside the US appreciate.
It don’t sell outside the us too
@@Strangetbh Wrong. It is also sold in Canada - which has km.
ruclips.net/video/UAxsIPbXMOs/видео.html
Why don’t outside markets ever give us units in miles and horsepower? Shame on all of you.
@@DctorSkillz1 That depends on the target markets and audiences. If it's not meant for US and/or UK there's no need for a conversion.
It's a rolling meme
Kudos! I want to complement you on your thorough description. I really enjoyed your opinions and references to other competitors as well. I especially liked how you differentiated the "truck things" vs "it's a large SUV" - I personally agree with you that most of the people interested in EV trucks will use them like large SUVs.
That panel gap made me gasp and let me tell you dear reader, I drive a 2008 Dodge Caliber.
That really does put it in perspective
I think its why MKB chose this CyberTruck instead of his. His "Beast" version was above average, but he wanted to showcase the lemons. On the plus side, Tesla service comes to you and eventually the fitment issues get worked out as production increases. Model S,X,3,Y all have problems for the first year of production.
@@syspowertools3372 but elon said he knows more about manufacturing than anyone alive on earth
But according to the fanboys "panel gaps was fixed long time ago, it is not a problem anymore"🤣
So you think Elon knows every single thing going on in Tesla? Stop hating and get a life!
I've seen a lot of Cybertruck reviews by now and what stands out to me is that Tesla had an idea, with a specific design, which they stubbornly stuck with regardless of all the practical obstacles they encountered during development. Things we take for granted in other cars like efficiency of windshield wipers, the need for physical buttons and a freaking door handle. Or even the shape of the front. That vertical, huge flat slab of metal on the front of the Cybertruck is gonna have a lot of small dents from road pebbles.
It’s not that Tesla and its talented engineers had an idea, but that Elon had an idea and even the best efforts of the engineers to make it work left gaping compromises that couldn’t be smoothed over
It's not been a moth that a freaking billionaire drowned inside a Tesla that went into 6ft of water
As soon as the eletronics in that car died she was inside a metal coffin
In no serious country that would fly
A billionaire died for fucks sake, that's the only class of people the US seems to care about
What was the "idea" exactly? What possible reason does this car have for existing?
This is all made for an angry child's ego.
@@mettaworldelbow7104I've been an engineer for almost 30 years. The engineering on this vehicle is poor and suggests very immature designers.
To have rear screen in main display is also more simple. No need to have another cables running to top.
Can't be sold in Australia because it's too dangerous for other road users. Also we have enough distractions for single guys to use for impressing other single guys.
Hearing that full self driving beta is not available/compatible is a relief. We really don't need a rigid frame vehicle covered in stainless steel death panels making dangerous maneuvers on the road and causing fatal accidents. It shouldn't see self driving until the feature is out of beta (if ever).
nah fr id be terrified
not even legal at all to use here in BC
@@paddington1670The entire Cybertruck itself isn't legal to use here in the UK.
@@L8ugh1ngm8n1 same here in Brasil. Funny how any place with security legislations makes the cybertruck impossible.
Judging by the quality and looks of the car, I'd be more afraid of the actual owners driving than a computer.
An unbiased review of a dangerous piece of metal on wheels with a handy finger cutter built-in.
It’s the built-ins that people go for.😂
Excellent review as always. Keep them coming as I figure out what EV for my family we will acquire in the next 18 mo nths.
Great review, probably the best I've seen so far for the Cybertruck. I've experienced the head turning effect from my first BMW i3, back when they were brand new, and then my Model X. I'm always happy to show it to people who are interested (which is pretty much everyone). I do hope they can build a right hand drive version for us in the UK though, otherwise car parks and drive-thru restaurants will be hard work. We're getting a preview in the tomorrow in London. I just need to convince my wife that this is the "camper van" we should be buying instead of an ID Buzz.
“The truck itself is a bit of a celebrity”!🤣
The serious look on Marques’s face when he said that, it’s almost like the cyber truck is a spoiled rich kid and Marques is trying to talk quietly so the truck doesn’t hear him!😂
100% true fam
17:30 really proofed his point haha
Unfortunately this wouldn’t be allowed in UK/Europe due to safety concerns. Too many sharp edges no give on the bonnet or hood, plus it won’t fit in our tiny roads
@@tubadukIt shouldn't be legal in the US either, but here we are. Elon might be paying off or bribing NHTSA. They are already suspected of being super corrupt during the Trump admin. Which is why new truck generations are completely breaking safety design laws with their massive grills that would kill children and peds easily.
Fortunately you mean! Imagine the pedestrian deaths. @@tubaduk
"So you dont have to" thanks for taking one for the team bro, ill just keep living with my 2010 Chrysler
PT Cruiser has more higher quality than this thing 😂
ruclips.net/video/UAxsIPbXMOs/видео.html
I'd rather have 100 2010 Chryslers stacked up as a Chrysler pyramid than 1 Cybertruck.
No option for paint, no spare tire, panel gaps, Cant fully eipe a window, slow charge. They went all out with this one
My Rivian is amazing. I was 1200 in line for a CT, but there is no way I would take on this thing. What this could have been with all that tech etc... What it actually is :(
I was walking in an outdoor mall type place (Domain in Austin) and a cyber truck drove by. I told my wife "look, the cybertruck" as another guy told his wife near us "that's the cybertruck" and 2 more feet over as we kept walking this lady told her mom "it's called the cyber truck."
Elon-stans are going to make soccer-moms driving regular land-yachts look like the sensible ones.
This truck and all its promotional material gives me serious fyre festival vibes 🥪
Yeah but that fyre festival guy is not a billionaire. Enron Musk is a billionaire and the billionaires need our support.
@@hamie63_m excellent point
HA HA!!!
@@hamie63_mLmao Enron Musk. That’s really good.
Got to love a review on a truck without ever mentioning a single thing that would make it useable as a truck. Owners of electric trucks usually have not owned trucks before and it shows.
And I love when he praised the 240V port because you can charge another car and then immediately transitions to how terrible the battery range is. 😂 Who's going to charge you?
He specifically mentioned how Truck owners dont really do Truck things and how the Cybertruck uses that knowledge of the market by not actually being excellent for "trucky" activities. Are you really that bad at paying attention? If people buy trucks because they want to compensate for small genitals, rather than for wanting to do "trucky" things, thats not Teslas fault.
Lets be fair there are some practical electric trucks like rivian though theyre expensive. I think elon and his aesthetics designers are just morons and so are their customers.
So, it's really a car? A big weird car.
why did my reply to your silly comment get deleted?
@@DJ-ov2it they deleted mine as well. Interesting
The funniest thing about the Cybertruck is the amount of haters that always come out furiously mashing their keyboards at every chance they get online, and yet how much absolute love it gets in real life. The divergence is stupendous and perplexing at the same time.
It really looks like sketch from Cyberpunk and does follow the classy CB motif of "Form over function'
This is random but i've never seen Marques make such an expression on his face 9:51 since his channel began🤣 , the look of "digust" is so real.
I laughed at that too 😂😂😂
That squeak LOL
ruclips.net/video/UAxsIPbXMOs/видео.html
Damn you guys do note everything.
It’s because the door strike is loose. Screwdriver will fix it.
That windshield wiper is absolutely hilarious. Look at the placement of that thing.
A wiper that long will be prone to juddering I think. The 26" one on my car did it.
Future cost... $200??
@@vikingbase75 bucks for the big wiper. Chill.
Musk actually _bought_ 3 dildo manufacturers to source the best materials for the windshield wipers. That's the genius of Elon.
@@CampGarethyour wiper was shit though… this thing is a behemoth. It won’t wear like your POS.
The best thing is, that the Video flickers as if the Cybertruck has Problems loding in... xD
saw one on the road for the first time recently and was shocked at the size. I immediately felt unsafe driving next to it. the wideness is INSANE to see in person.
Marques driving his 911 now understands build quality vs tech! Appreciate the candid reviews and having a well rounded opinion when you spend $100k+ on a vehicle
ruclips.net/video/UAxsIPbXMOs/видео.html
Ah, the Tesla Truck, the pinnacle of vehicular innovation, where you pay a premium to embark on a futuristic journey akin to buying a high-end smartphone but with the features of a flip phone. It's like acquiring a deluxe, overpriced electric paperweight on wheels. You get the unique opportunity to experience all the drawbacks of electric vehicle ownership, combined with the quality you'd expect from a budget ride at best. Basic features? Oh, those are for the weak. Who needs functionality when you can bask in the glow of trendy inadequacy, right?
In essence, buying a Tesla Truck is making a declaration. A declaration that you value the image of innovation over actual utility, that you're willing to ignore the glaring deficiencies for the sake of being part of a "movement", one that's less about automotive excellence, and more about flaunting a badge of modernity.
100k doesn't sound like much living in Europe. Cars are double price.
I feel like he’s been understanding buying quality vs tech lol it’s his job.
Was thinking the exact same thing about his increased experience with Porsche now.
lol, geez ive had my truck for 3 weeks and I didnt know that middle seat in the back folded down. Thats sweet.
odd
lemme hold a dolla cuhh
Gotta love the "logic" behind having a pull strap instead of just pulling down like EVERY other car/SUV/Truck out there. Also interesting to see that it moves a good bit before pulling the tab...
How does it feel to have everyone point and laugh as you drive around?
@@thomasprovencher4611my ram has a strap and so did my Infiniti for the middle arm rest.
I live in southern California and I see a few Cybertrucks every now and then but I was in San Jose and Santa Cruz last week and I must've seen a thousand of them. It's like people are getting them out of cereal boxes.
All I remember was the big screen, the Awesome sound system and the fantastic intelligent suspension. It's basically a n electric mobile movie theater is what I'm hearing. If they manage to get the suspension to move with the action of the movie you are watching you can invite 4 friends over to experience a nice evening in your cool movie theater truck.
