Just what America needed. A 7,000 lb. razor blade that does 0-60 in 3 seconds
And can effectively peel and cut vegetables
GTA6 is coming
Didn't US just used Chicken Tax to ban new Toyota utility vehicles due to "safety regulations"? While Cybertruck exists.
The class action is going to be epic when it comes. And it will come.
@@jonathanbakalarz7786I sure hope so
Remember that episode of the Simpsons when Herb lets Homer design "the car for the average American" and he creates a massive, terrifically inefficient, hideously ugly travesty with a sticker price of $82,000?
Yeah...
When ever I see the cybertruck I literally do think of the Homer
I'd buy a Homer over the Cybertruck everytime.
Holy S! I just put that in my comment but you are spot on.
But does the Cybertruck play "La Cucaracha" when you honk the horn? Checkmate Tesla.
Is that the Canyonero episode?
The Cybertruck is retrofuturistic because it looks like a resource-gathering unit in a late-90's RTS game.
all these comments make me want one. someone called it a 7k lb razorblade that goes 0 to 60 in 3 seconds. I WANT IT!
@@__shifty Just be aware that it won't actually gather tiberium for you.
@@timothymclean C&C reference, nice
Looool that's so accurate
& just like a harvester from Command & Conquer, it's unreasonably good at killing people.
> Makes panels out of stainless steel to prevent rust
> Panels rust when they get wet
idk what kind of "stainless" steel they used, my kitchen sink is stainless and even after 22 years of being exposed to god only knows what, it looks brand new.
Common misconception there. It's actually "stain-less", it will still rust. Which makes this even dumber.
I'm going to guess that 80% of miles driven in modern "pickup trucks" are by one person with an empty bed.
You mean no women at home ???? Makes sense !
@@ellsworthm.toohey7657There's definitely no women in your home.
It's all about the appearance lol. I know people that have huge trucks and never put anything in the bed or tow. What a waste.
Literally my carpool lane all trucks with clean beds
At LEAST 80%. So many guys buy one to let everybody know that they're "a real man." Seems pretty bizarre to me. And that they have gotten so big... I recently bought a Tacoma. I wanted a new small truck like one of the older Rangers, but they don't exist in the US. I just need to haul mulch occasionally, or pick up some lumber from the hardware store. That Tacoma is as big as the old F-150, and the new F-150 is as big as an old F-250. I guess it's just domesticated men desperately trying to tell the world that they haven't been neutered or something.
I just want an electric car without all the tech and screens.😢
Edit: stop replying to this comment. The notifications are annoy me.
Screens are more techie, not really, they are a safety issue, also probably cheaper than dials, also can be disabled by a software bug or whatever else you can think about.
I feel your pain but I do not want an electric car.
Look into Edison motors. Currently they are only pickup conversions and semi trucks, there is a movement of us that wants simple efficient vehicles.
I drive a 2003 Civic SI hatchback.
If I could buy a new version of that car, just as it is, simple dials, buttons, and all, with the only change was that it was electric, I would do it.
Unfortunately, no one will make that car.
F150 lighting XLT with extended range
buy an air-cooled Beetle and have it converted.
Elon was 13 when Back to the Future was released. Hard to imagine DeLoren wasn’t top of mind
And his company will suffer the same fate as delorean.
Probably designed the cyber truck back then too
he was too busy sleeping in a pile of his dads money
that explain why the car is utter garbage....lol
When someone tells you with confidence that something is easy to do, know that that person is too inexperienced to see the difficulties an expert would know to anticipate.
Elon laughed and said "it's easy" when talking about his "hyperloop" vacuum train thingamajig and look where that is now.... Out of business.
If I hear him say "it's easy" or say "next year" with confidence, he's lying his ass off.
... Cybertruck is what happens when a DeLorean and a Pontiac Aztek love each other very much ...
🤪🤪🤣🤣
😂
Ah.... Yeah I see it... and I hate it....
The Pontiac Aztek has finally lost the title of ugliest SUV ever made.
@@rewing4880 You're kidding. The Aztek is by far the ugliest thing ever made
Honestly another stupid thing about Tesla is that they try soooo hard to make their interiors as simplistic and boring as possible to the point it’s actually affecting efficiency like I really don’t understand the obsession with hyper minimalism or the over reliance on a screen to control everything
For real, touch screens are so antithetical to safe driving. There's no tactility at all, so you have to look at them to make sure you're touching the right thing. I can't understand how it isn't flat out illegal to make a touch screen control any feature of a car.
They are cutting down on costs, that's why they have shitty built quality, gotta cut corners as much as they can.
I’d say a U-Haul rental truck is how minimalist is done right.
Putting everything on a touchscreen saves money. Full stop. End of story.
Then it was PRs job to convince people it's what they wanted.
You sound poor
I live in the Midwest US. Public transportation here is a joke. I'd rather find a way to live without a car than drive a cybertruck.
The worst part is I've actually seen one of these monstrosities in person on the roads, and this should come as a surprise because I don't live in California or Texas, I live in Nebraska. Who in the hell in Nebraska needs one of these?
I saw one in Michigan on I75 and thought I was dreaming. No it wqs really and ugly.
@evacody1249 Yeah, there's one in Norton Shores, MI, as well. It's so much uglier in person. It is almost hard to believe how bad it looks. And the build quality is mind bogglingly bad.
Had one pop up at a local motorsports place in SW Missouri. I made the comment to my friend that "it looks less like something out of Blade Runner and more like something out of Judge Dredd."
At least one in Sioux Falls as well
Same, I saw one last week here in rural Georgia
There's a reason why people call it the Wankpanzer.
Einsletsloggen fur enscrappenzein und brekkendownnen!
The Cyber Garbage Truck is certainly a very expensive way of telling the world that you're a gullible and stupid fool with more money than sense.
I dunno, I'm German and I like a Panzer as much as the next guy... but come on, "Wank Tank" is way catchier. :D
I like the term "incel camino".
I personally like “no-head sled”
Did we really think that someone who names their son, "X Æ A-Xii" was going to make a vehicle that wasn't completely stupid, when left to his own devices?
At least simplify it to A-12 Archangel (the plane he named his child after)
@@Yuki_Ika7 , Actually, I think they changed the end of his name from A-12 to A-Xii
The actual pronunciation of that is e-i-e-i-o. Fortunately, kid can change their name when they turn 18.
I believe this was his partner's idea. But I my be wrong.
@@JulianaBlewett I pray this kid gets to change it before that.
If I wanted an impractically large, all-terrain vehicle with high towing capacity, bulletproof steel paneling and a "cool" factor, I'd just buy a decommissioned Army HMMWV (Humvee). The parts and maintenance manuals are already readily available for everyone, and the vehicles themselves are way way cheaper. And they come in a variety of different colors!
I'd also guess there is a wide variety of aftermarket modification suppliers. So you can add the silly looks factor to your unpractical Humvee.
The Cybertruck looks like an NPC traffic vehicle from early 3D racing games
It was polite of Tesla to make the front blind spots so huge you won't see the look on faces of people killed by the Neanderthal Auto Pilot.
Elon doesn't like faces, it was not a favor to the customers.
Neanderthal autopilot...love it
That's an insult to Neanderthals.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
this argument is like saying Neanderthal to an elevator while defending the stairs. lol How polite of the elevators companies to makes those elevator doors in the way we will not see the faces of the people will fall in the elevator hole. Stairs are so cool (even braking more legs) lol.
Everyone: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Elon: I present to you my newest creation. I call it the "wheel".
*Unveils square wheel*
Elon fanboys: he's such a misunderstood genius!
"wheels have been, uh , uh, pr-preretty the same for thousand of years"
He'd call it the Hyperwheel or Cyberwheel.
To be strictly fair to Elon: Apple did that with both computers and phones, broke them and put out worse more expensive products.
Suckers bought them in the millions only for the marketing. At this point Apple could sell a $ 200 brick stamped with their logo and their fans would queu up at night to buy it while rabidly argueing 'all other forms of brick and stone are obsolete now'.
Knowing Elon Musk, he'd probably announce on a whim that Tesla cars won't have wheels anymore, and then one year afterward, he'd suddenly "solve the problem of their cars not moving" by "inventing" wheels for it again (except he'd call them something like "The Giga-Circle" or something)
The problem I have with the Cybertruck is that when I stare at it for a while I think it starts looking kinda cool right up to looking at any other vehicle, then it looks like what a toddler would draw
You have invented zero in your life and accomplished nothing. Musk has made more money with 1cyber truck than you and your whole family past and future will ever make. ! cyber truck shits on your life and efforts.
Which is why I always wonder how fictional vehicles look better than cybertruck.
True
I just can't get over how dangerous it looks for a potential clash with a pedestrian. And I'm saying this while living in a country filled with ancient unsafe cars
Any pedestrian who gets hit by this is not going to have a good time.
No pickup truck does well with pedestrians this is not unique to the Cyber Truck
I agree, but I would rather get him by a "normal" pickup truck because this one looks like an actual wall of steel with sharp corners.
@@joebuslife9275 Same with SUV's as well, lots of kids being run over in the driveway cus you cant see whats directly in front of you
Get the fuck over it. Get hit by any car your dead ok? stop trying to convince yourself and others cars don't kill people or other car companies haven't been sued 100 times before. cope and seethe.
If it's supposed to look like the future, why is it designed like it's supposed to be in a ps1 game
It doesn't have enough polygons for the ps1.
Looks like tron
Kinda fit's the look of Lara Croft from the 90s
Because it is made from stainless steel which cannot be easily rolled into complex shapes like the thin ass chinesium cars are made from today.
@@koboldparty4708 you mean too many lol
I'm glad you pointed out that trucks and semis are not really supposed to be able to accelerate like sports cars. That just sounds extremely dangerous for everyone on the road.
Especially when weight determnes stopping distance more than anything else. So you can get into trouble faster but still be to slow to avoid it.
Yeah, you don't really want that.
Exactly! I was so confused watching the tesla semi presentation when he was bragging about its acceleration times and speed compared to diesel semis. All while conveniently neglecting to talk about towing capacity, braking performance, charging logistics, and all the other stuff that actually matters for a semi truck.
Whole SUV popularity is a huge mistake. They need electronic stability assist that almost stops them in any emergency manuver, just so they don't roll over.
Citroen Xantia was safe, because of all cars that ever existed, it had the highest both entry and exit speed in the Moose manuver, meaning it was most capalbe to dodge collisions as long as the driver was capable.
With modern electronics it could do this even with noob driver thanks to super low gravity center and active suspension that annuled bodyroll and reacted to weight transfer, but public popularity went the opposite weight. Instead of nimble and capable, the public went big and cheap.
The Semi does NOT accelerate like a sports car. But it accelerating at a REASONABLE pace is far SAFER re traffic flow. It having enough power to go up hills reasonably so as not to need special truck lanes on ANY meaningful hill (for example) is ALSO good for overall safety.
It sounds like you have no idea what you're talking about.
And I agree with pretty much everything in the video by the way, but re the semi, facts and logic exist.
The cybertruck is the stupidest vehicle made in the last 70 years. Even worse than the AMC Pacer. EM should be removed as CEO.
Don't disrespect the Mirthmobile.
Take back what you said about the Pacer. I will have no AMC slander.
A pick up with no place to throw your backpack without tapping a touch screen is not a pick up.
As a whole the "truck market" has forgot what a truck is supposed to be
They're for staying shiny and taking up too much space.
A truck that's not a truck. Sounds like a magic trick. Will it carry 4 x 8 drywall? Nope.
@patrickchubey3127 "Nope" is correct.
The *CT* is A horrible toy.
@@patrickchubey3127 well... many of them will do that now. in fact most of them...
which is the largest shift in the truck market right now, you kind of have it backwards if you think most trucks are "too small".
gone are the days of the common old ranger and s10.
Because most buyers arn't using them for "what a truck is supposed to be" so manufacturers have adjusted
All I can say is, I'm glad we have saftey standards in Europe
Imagine landing on that roof falling from a building
@@smexy_manwell, closed casket but you'll fit in a smaller one, your family might appreciate the savings
Yuropoors can't afford it anyways
@@ppwalk05 standard of living is higher in developed Europe compared to the richest third world country of West called U.S.A.
@@ppwalk05
No European would buy that crap anyway, one with brains that is 😂
We actually have good cars.
What is NEEDED, Bring back the little truck, the Toyotas the S-10, the smaller Rangers. Regulations have killed one of the best vehicals I ever owned.
Fuel economy regulations meant to reduce fuel consumption have resulted in vehicles that consume even more fuel. Repeal CAFE.
Yessss the S-10! I drove a decade old S-10 for another decade and loved that damn car.
@@Phoenix0F8 It's was my first! 84 S-10 drove the hell out of it.
Miss my little tacoma so bad. :(
Saw one in person the other day.
As a frequent motorcyclist and pedestrian, this vehicle is fucking terrifying. And yes, even uglier than I expected.
i would argue its not a retro design, but a brutalist design. It shares more with architecture than it does with car body or aerodynamics
It does share the asthetics of brutalism, but in a sense, brutalism is retro, since it was at it's height in the 1960s and 70s
It is aerodynamic…
@@ehfoiwehfowjedioheoih4829 Sharp edges are not aerodynamic. EV1 was super aerodynamic, just look it up.
It is unquestionably brutalist. The thing about brutalism in architecture is that it is called that because the raw concrete aesthetic. Raw steel aesthetic for a car is exactly what brutalism would be for cars.
@@ehfoiwehfowjedioheoih4829 oh really well i work on aircraft so i can actually judge this. Its not aerodynamic the Fairly Battle is more aerodynamic then this thing.
"We just couldn't get the regulations changed..." gives some insight into the quality of our food, water and air.
That sentence is some real doomsday-capitalism corporate talk. I can’t believe people hear this and do not get furious immediately.
Corporations are slowly taking away all the rights and achievements our parents and grandparents had to fight for in the past to a point where it hurts everyone and they’re doing it all for short-term profits of shareholders. Insanity
@@vikteur5465proof
Proof
Elon Musk is a very dangerous player. His money influences politics and those choices have a direct influence on regulations.
Just wait until Project 2025 rolls out if enough Americans vote for republicans in November. Maybe this IS the wave of the future
Elon: "It would be like an Electric F-150"
Ford: "Oh, hey, yeah. We can do that. And we can get it to market 2 years earlier than Tesla. And it won't dissolve in the rain."
And it’s more practical in almost every way.
What I find astonishing are the people who'd go to xitter and say "It broke down 4 times since I got it, now it caught fire, but it's still the best car I ever owned!"
Like... Dude... ...is it the first car you ever owned, or did you collect Ford Pintos?
One bad change most trucks have, is the cabs got longer, and the beds got shorter.
They have become family trucksters.
I'll be holding on to my 2006 until I die for this reason.....
You can get a tundra with extra cab and 8.1ft bed, it's great
@@KoiAquaponics Except I don't want the extra length, extra tare weight, or extra cost of an extra cab. My current truck has a tare weight of roughly 4,200 lbs. This comes in handy for a variety of lightly-built bridges I cross. Some of the sharper turns I have to make aren't friendly to it, let alone anything longer.
This is why European small trucks are better. They are mostly vans with traditional industrial bed that isn't even painted. They are purely for work.
I'm half convinced the design is based on Musk's childhood art homework
That was my thought the first time I saw it, I bet he called it the X, too, 'cause, you know, the letter X is super duper cool! lol
It also looks like it's driving backwards. The long wheel overhang is in the back...
I drew a truck that looked like this when i was in 7th grade (1992) using the ruler from my Helix Oxford Geometry set. Straight edges every where because they were easier to draw.
All Tesla designs seem to be from primary school art class.
@@williamcahill2462 And that's cool. I like the design of the CT.
Elon says the universe is a simulation, so what’s the smartest thing to do? Make a car that’s easy to render
tryna save the cosmic bandwidth lmao
He is a genius.
"All the kinetic energy goes into a generator and so you basically never have to replace the brake pads" damn someone get Elon a Nobel prize because apparently he figured out how to overcome the second law of thermodynamics
"And we just could get the law changed."
"Teslas kinda look like Mazdas pretty much" that's the exact thing I'm telling to people for the last 5 years and they think I'm taking crazy pills.
There's a lot of Jaguar in current Mazdas. Tesla Model Ys have always reminded me of Jaguars. Every Tesla shares very similar design language which doesn't work so well on the tall ones.
I own a Mazda and I'm insulted.
@@cr10001 well i am sorry but Franz von Holzhausen designed your car and the model 3 lol
nope you are right Franz von Holzhausen designed mazdas 3 and model 3 .
Yeah, I can see it. Mazda kicked the ball out of the park with the Mazda 3. Tesla and BMW both took design cues from Mazda.
Imagine trying to ridicule the vintage trucks that are true workhorses and icons... With a piece of Toblerone that has worse build quality than a kid's toy. Like what was he thinking??
Exactly, a damn el camino has more utility as a truck than a cybertruck what with its non-existent bed space
@@erwin-franz 1- the presentation was trying to make classic trucks look outdated, which they sort of are, but it very much falls flat when the trucks they're listing are cult classics known for their design and reliability. I'm not offensed, it's just a silly thing to do
2- An overall unappealing design stacked on top of an incapable and unreliable vehicle makes a cybertruck superior only when compared to other terrible cars, say like a Yugo. Gimmicks and tech don't make a good car.
@@erwin-franz But IS Elon Musk's whole shtick: he claims that the "good, old" and very popular American pick-up truck is just an oldfashioned throwback, whereas the Cybertruck " supposedly is the NEW standard for pick-up trucks", at least according to Elon that is. He almost literally says it in that bragging sales pitch for the CT.
So yes, Tesla/Musk DID build this monstrosity to upset others and I think it's fair to say they failed miserably. There's a couple of things that are almost sacred for many Americans: one is guns and the right to have as many of them as they want and the second is the "good, old" American (style) pick-up truck, built on the idea of "if it was good enough for my daddy and his daddy before him, it's good enough for me."
It looks like what I would have drawn, when I was in 7th grade. It's basically a high techie looking traveling cellphone. They use low grade "stainless steel," and forgot to hire actual automotive expertise. If you wanna build a vehicle, I'd poach the best PRACTICAL engineers, etc. I'd even (horror of horrors) bring on board marketing and styling experts. Musk can be the dumbest smart guy out there.
@@erwin-franz Bullshit! It was Elon's ketamine fueled dumbshit childish idea of a TUFF truck with an "exoskeleton". Which by the way it doesn't have. The stainless is just ugly, rusting, heavy snap on skin that pops of on almost a daily basis.
In our age of tech, manufacturing and 125 years of auto building this joke is the the most ridiculously incompetent vehicle ever mass released.
Most importantly it's just more Elon lies to pump the stock price. Are you REALLY dumb enough to believe that Robotaxis will be released in under 3 months?
It's all about Elon's wealth and nothing else.
Usually when you purchase a 4 door pickup truck with a short bed it's not for work it's to tow a boat with your family to the lake.
Californian here. There are honestly A LOT of these on the roads now, to the point that it isn't shocking anymore to see one. They are the ONLY 4 wheel vehicle other than cop cars that make me change the way I drive. I would feel safer being tailgated by some d bag in a lifted Ram than I would even being in the vicinity of a Cybertruck. They are VERY large and it's obvious that they have enormous blindspots. I know for a fact that the solid metal body would obliterate my car if it hit me. And knowing about the accelerator pedal defect makes me actively avoid getting in front of them; I've even switched lanes when one merged behind me. Truly the worst vehicle to share the road with to come out in a long time.
The one "nice" thing I will say is that I've seen a few with what I'm guessing are aftermarket paint jobs or wraps - one black and one yellow - those honestly looked kind of cool.
It’s exactly The Homer. Even down to the $82,000 price tag. One of the best jokes ever.
Literally that right?! How can this be though? I'm sure we are being played, just not sure how.
Whenever people mention the price, I know they don’t own a truck AND haven’t looked at MSRP, for the performance trucks, within the last decade. Trucks are crazy expensive these days.
Going with the Simpsons theme, I'd say it's an eCanyonero 😄
@@upset_banana That is a good theory, like that. I think EM is such a charlatan anyway.
Omfg I forgot about that episode 😂 the fcking Homer HAHAHAHA
The cybertruck is to trucks, what a building would be if there were 10 architects and 0 engineers
the cybertruck needs a STRONGER shape
Wrong, at least the building would look good.
10 Architects super into Brutalism, all trying to out-concrete the others.
You are so braind dead lmao. The exact opposite. Architects are the ones that make pretty things. Engineers are the ones who would design everything as a square because it is simple.
It was litteraly designed by engineers, in this case.
We were in the car and my mom saw one of those on the road and she’s like “that looks like it should’ve been in Back To The Future.”

The bigger the company the more power they have to get regulations changed.
Why is this Cybertruck “air suspension” so groundbreaking? The French car company Citroën developed such a system decades ago. Reinventing the wheel yet again and only making it worse. WTF?
When SpaceX needed a pickup, they bought the F-150 Lightning. Enough said.
Maybe because so many where available
@@johnp5250 Tesla cars build quality is generally horrible.
@@johnp5250 I think if anyone could get priority cybertruck access it would be the company also owned by the owner of tesla lmao
@@vanjamenadzeryes they are. Every time i detail a tesla vehicle they fall apart inside just from sweeping. It's crazy
@@johnp5250 If two products are even remotely comparable in terms of quality, it's always worth it to buy one at cost rather than having to pay cost+profit on the other. Especially trucks, which have huge profit margins per unit to make up for the years of design and tooling work done prior to the first truck coming off the factory floor.
It's pretty simple. A bunch of white collar tech bros and a billionaire thought they could make a better vehicle with a better experience over what millions of truck users have asked for. They ignored the practical use and knowledge of blue collar people and every day Americans because they surely knew better than the plebians.
I think you’re thinking too hard about this. It’s a highly stylized vehicle. Nobody thinks this thing is for farmers. It’s for the concrete jungle, which is all most trucks see anyways.
…sounds like even the “White-Collar Tech-Bros” knew better but EM insisted it follow his bizarre design choices and manufacturing absurdities.
I guess you haven't noticed, but the large majority of trucks are sold to people who will never roll over anything more strenuous than a speedbump, not working people who need them to work. And if any other US automaker cared more, the light pickup wouldn't be basically dead and there'd be more than a handful of trucks for less than 40k on the lot.
They are parking princesses. US should import more kei trucks from Japan for work/farm use.
Same reason why they’re constantly inventing worse versions of trains
How did the Cybertruck come to be? Elon + peak ego + Ket + a Cyberpunk 2077 ad.
I don’t know but the Roadster has to be that and more.
Honestly, if Edison Motors ever gets off and is able to build their own vehicles from scratch, they should lean heavily on everything that has ever been introduced on pickups from the later half of the 20th century, and just leave it at that, all while making it compatible with the some of the biggest manufactures for spares, maybe.
I got to see one in Halifax Canada. The owner gave me these warnings.
1. He can't park it inside his attached garage because his home fire insurance would triple.
2. It losses 33% range at -20C
3. It can't charge outdoors if it's sub -25 c with any windchill.
4. It's so heavy it damaged his friggin driveway and sank half a foot into his lawn overnight when he had the dents filled.
Yeah it Dented his pavement.
5. He can't store it in any above ground parking structure without getting towed. Weight restrictions.
6. I could see this with my own eyes, but it was rusty. The edges of the panels has clear discoloration and water lines.
7. It got stuck every single time he took It anywhere not clearly paved as a dirt road.
Forgot, it also isn't safe in snow or slush apparently. It loves to slide sideways so the owner said
@@FeedMeSalt Did he otherwise seem like an intelligent human being?
Two issues
6. That’s not the steel. This has been debunked so many times. It’s other stuff that will clean off.
7. They come with EV tires made for good range, but have horrible off road performance. Also, locking diff feature (yet to be enabled wtf) will help this tremendously.

To me, it looks like something the special effects department of a sci-fi movie from the 1980s built to depict what they thought vehicles would look like in the year 2000.
When I was a kid, our gaming PC needed cassette tapes to be loaded to play the game. As the game was loading, line by line, you'd get a load image appear.
I played so many cheap games that I saw a LOT of cars on the style of a cyber truck.
It's literally a copy of a Syd Mead concept design for Blade Runner
Yes, it reminds me of the long range shuttle from Star Trek the Motion Picture - circa 1979.
We need to pump out some bladerunner dystopian nightmare movies asap because these things will be headed to the junkyard soon so time is ticking
As someone who grew up in the 80s, that's exactly why I love it.
If it can't really do truck stuff, then don't call it a truck.
It can... sorry your biases blind you.
Not exactly objective
Even a simple mountain bike doesn't fit in the bed, such a fail.
@@dc6233 also its the only truck on market or possibly in history that has the spare tire sitting on top of the bed instead of underneath it or inside so that it doesnt take up all the bed space 🤣
I don’t call it a truck, I call it the idiot’s hallmark.
I actually saw one of these parked outside a bar last night. I absolutely could not believe someone actually bought one.
It didn't age well just like the product that was promoted with the slogan "safe & effective". 😆
I think this monstrosity will have a prime place in the "Failed Vehicles Museum" with the DMC Delorean sitting nearby.
At least the DeLorean was good looking and had a designer who was not the equivalent of a 5 year old chimp who fell out of a tree as a little monkey on to his head.
@@mr_b_hhc Yes, the Delorean was a better design. I think Elon wanted something that looked similar, but failed miserably. But both vehicles have inherent issues due to using stainless steel. It is difficult to work with, heavy, and the metal has to be type 304 stainless steel to keep from corroding. I think in the Cybertruck's case, some of the steel they used proved to be off specification - so rusting has occurred in some cases.
No one makes good movies anymore they could put a cyber truck in, so it will be forgotten long before the Delorean
Wouldn't surprise me if the major EV manufacturer had a few members of Congress in its pocket.
If they don't, that would be grossly negligent from a business perspective. If you aren't bribing the hopelessly corrupt bureaucracy, then you just ain't trying.
Everyone in Congress has someone holding their leash...
The entire government is acting against tesla for not being union, they'd be bad bribes if they were.
Tesla? Tesla's got lots of political influence, especially because Elon is the richest dude in the world. I'm pretty sure its hemorrhaging it because everyone hates their CEO, they don't actually produce many vehicles, and they've underdelivered on every jobs promise they've made to local and state governments, but... yeah, Tesla has political influence.
The entire drive for EVs is a giant con-game so of course they would have that.
It’s funny seeing how different communities on the internet have drastically different experiences. I never experienced any cybertruck “hype,” most of the car communities I interact with were clowning on it for being impractical and looking dumb
I can’t wait until the future is laughing at our pathetic attempts to look more futuristic than we are, it’s like the 50’s and how we laugh at their assumptions of the future.
True lol
At least that actually looked kinda cool. And they knew less about what did and didn't work, so their designs can be excused for being a bit off the wall.
“Minimalist interior feels corporate and awful…” 😂 thanks for that. That was the deal killer for my Leaf loving wife.
I think he made a mistake there tbf
should have said looks cheap and awful
"leaf loving" lol
😂
I'm with your wife on the interior of Tesla vehicles. They're AWFUL looking. And oddly, they smell. Seriously, I've been in a few Teslas and they have this odd smell, it's gross.
@@ChantingInTheDark what does it smell like? Old people? Corpses of animals? Rotten milk?
“Back to the yuppie stuff’, yep, that sums up Tesla perfectly.
the cyber truck is ugly as fuck. No idea how anyone deluded themselves into buying that piece of shit
The regen brakes make total sense...every tesla driver uses it everyday basically hardly touching the brake pedal...pads last over 200k miles
Tesla car shapes:
Fridge and frog
Accurate
Add bar soap into that mix
I'll chime in with "prison urinal" for the cyberwtf.
I've said for awhile teslas look like Kermit the frog
That's reserved for Nissan.
I’m a contractor. I almost bought a Lightning because my old truck was on its last legs. But honestly I need an 8’ bed to haul lumber and sheet goods and the Lightning’s bed is too tiny, so I bought an F350. Imagine trying to use the bed of the Cybertruck to haul sheet goods or to put tear off into. Or imagine trying to reach into the bed for tools right behind the cab. As a guy who has and uses a truck for truck stuff there’s no way I would own a Cybertruck.
And that is one of the many problems of it.
Who would possibly cross-shop a 1-ton truck with an EV pickup? That’s so apples to oranges it's absolutely ridiculous.
@BigBossIvan not really. Considering that an EV pickup is around 4 tons of weight, however he mainly pointed out how small the bed is.
@@gamerfan8445 Once again, the weight of the vehicle has nothing to do with it; it's capacity/capability. A 1-ton truck is a commercial-use truck that is, most of the time, built for that purpose. A half-ton (like the F-150/1500 series) is the direct competition to the Cybertruck. All of them also have 5-foot beds with standard crew cabs.
@BigBossIvan Even then, the cybertruck is a worse truck than a lightning and raptor. Hell, a ranger is a better truck than it.
I swear my mechanic brother once told me that steering wheels had to be physically connected to the steering by law, so the thing that weirds me out the most is that steer by wire is allowed
Maybe your mechanic brother isn’t a legal scholar 🤷♂️
Just saw a CyberTruck on the road a day ago. The ads just don't prepare you for how ugly the Cybertruck looks out in public.
It looks SO bad. Like, out of place bad.
The Weinermobile has major swag.
Cyber truck just shouts “insecure tech-bro douche”
I work in the tech industry and even the tech bros are like "WTF is this"
It's a flasher for people with way too much money and not an ounce of taste ... and with a deathwish
Thats what I think when I see any Tesla.
Hence Kim Kardashian owns one…says all you need to know about the wankpanzer.
Wienermobile looks much better in person, very difficult to do it justice in pictures. Cybertruck is the exact opposite, it photographs well, but in person it looks like a hotel ice machine with wheels as the video said.
As far as design is concerned, there is an Australian car reviewer who calls it the "cyber-urinal."
Haha John cadogan
Main differences being that if you piss on a stainless urinal, it doesn't rust straight away & the urinal is suitable for purpose.
At least urinals have a purpose, ClusterTruck is just pointless garbage that never should have been produced.
SS rust. series 300 SS rust, Also 316 can rust. In my industry (i am a Quality engineer in construction external facades)
we use a lot of SS as external finitures, the matter is that SS need continuous maintainance, this could be avoided with surface treatments to isolate the metal surface from the elements. In a car, fingerprints will be a drama to clean, small surface scratches will result in rust by contamination, salts and calcium will stick in the surfaces creating uncleanable situations. that's why people apply coatings to protect the metal from corrosion, Thats why tesla itself start to sell colored cybertrucks, creating a possible secondary issue, SS is not famous for its surface adhesion skills, correct surface pretreatments shall be used, element exposure can create de-adhesion of the coating that's why, despite the trends, using stainless steel as external finiture, in things exposed to the elements, is not a great idea, despite if it looks good after installed, despite people thinking it will not rust.
Damn, can't unsee that mental picture.
Your comments about retro- futuristic are so spot on. The shape looks like what someone in the 60’s would think is futuristic!
It is not a truck. It has no space to haul anything.
However, I wish the police would treat it like a truck and do things like make them use the lower truck speed limits and can only use the right two lanes... all those "truck" things.
The future is N64 graphics! That does make sense why it's sledgehammer proof, but will die in a car wash.
it's not sledgehammer proof. the guy you see swinging the sledge VERY clearly held back his swing at the end, every time. I've seen regular shotguns destroy these doors. they are VERY thin.
@@thomasneal9291 It was just a joke
The designer was using a Pentium 2 computer and it didn't have enough polygons.
That's an insult to N64 graphics.
@@thomasneal9291 The promo truck likely didn't have as thin panels as the production ones aswell. I recall hearing they had to reduce the thickness because they couldn't find a way to form the thick sheets.

@@samurai_jack_1 thank you samurai
There's a cybertruck owner in my neighborhood and they already drove like garbage beforehand. Now I feel unsafe walking down the sidewalk with them on the road. I've seen nothing but catastrophic failure from this vehicle and it needs to be permanently taken off of the roads before it kills people
You'd definitely get smiles and thumb's up pulling up to a light in the Wienermobile, a Cyberyruck...not so much.
Anyone whose own a Prius understands the never replacing brakes thing. I used to be a mechanic and never replaced brakes on a Prius younger than 170,000 miles, because the regenerative braking does exactly what Elon said. The silly thing is all the prior Tesla cars had that feature too.
He still mentioned in the Semi unveil because brakes are probably the most frequent maintenance stops semis have to do and it's not cheap to do on a big fleet, so it's a big thing for logistics companies and truck drivers as well. going downhill on a fully loaded semi is stressful af because if you overheat the brakes, you only stop at the bottom
I managed to get a 2003 Ford Focus 5speed manual clutch to last beyond 166,000 miles without fade. Also a set of factory brakes to last past 90,000 miles before change.
Would that same factor apply to something as heavy as the Cybertruck? That is, would regenerative braking still be enough to avoid brake pad and rotor replacement?
@@tinetannies4637 Yes, because the point of regenerative braking is that the physical brakes don't get engaged unless you're braking hard. There's much more mass on a semi, but there would have to be that much larger a generator and batteries as well.
Brake pads are super cheap, require minimal tools and is extremely easy to do.
Taking Elon seriously is like taking your 6 yo kid brother seriously.
Dude it’s insane how many people continue to mindlessly obsess over the dude when it’s obvious he’s just an idiot with money
Sam's smarter than a 6 yr old. 😂 But that ain't Elon. 😂
Even Elon Musk thinks his space-cruising midnight-cherry Tesla Roadster looks weird. "It looks so ridiculous and impossible," the SpaceX CEO told reporters after the Falcon Heavy megarocket the car into space yesterday . "You can tell it's real because it looks so fake, honestly."Feb 7, 2018
how many 6 yo started multiple revolutionary companies that are extremely difficult to run and are the wealthiest man on earth?
Elon is not right on timelines but he changes entire industries.
He is the male Elizabeth Holmes. He may end up in prison for fraud. (Defrauding investors with claims like "FSD this year" - every year. Nah. Who am I kidding. There is such thing as too rich for prison.)
Actually the question about who needs a pick-up is quite fair. There are huge parts of Europe where people drive vans instead.
I want someone to have full ownership of the cybertruck and the ability to do whatever the owner wants to do with it. I'd like to see a full ICE conversion into a v8, v12, v24. Non electric version
The Cyber Truck looks like as if the modell is still buffering.
You know the F-117 Nighthawk? How it looks like it was the designers had a hard limit on the Poly count? Well, they did. They were using early-gen CAD software so they... Literally had a hard poly count.
Somehow, decades on and computer power having upped by several orders of magnitude, we have returned to Hard-Polygon-Cap-Chic.
you need pay more for better LOD model
It's an Aztek with PS1 graphics.
Looks like something you would see in a Halo game on the Xbox 360
Bro hasn't finished rendering
I'm an EV guy who long ago ditched the 4x4 SUV and placed my cybertruck order within seconds of it going online. I was thinking with 500 miles of promised range, I'd finally be able to take an EV off-roading here in the California desert, like I used to do with my ICE trucks. Then out came the 200 mile useful range at double the promised price, and it's just a no-go. So I cancelled, and now that I see it's basically a rolling meme, I'm glad I did.
Did you get your deposit money back?
Tell me you never actually order at CT without actually telling me you really didn’t order one!
@@williamcurtis1088 Uh oh, smells like copium in here
@@OrgaNik_Music
'Yesla' fangirl copium in your case.
Even with fanbois, Musk can only just lie and spew nonsense for so long, and things will catch up to Tesla.
They should focus on what they're good at -- but Musk is too scatter-brained, and the BOD can't control him.
He's mostly the opposite of what a good large corporation CEO should be.
He should be chief engineer or something -- and have to get his "big ideas" by management's practicality, cost, and facts filters.
It doesn't matter if the trucks run on electricity or gas, unless you have a business they should be banned because it's only for insecure people who think they need a polluting, gigantic and dangerous vehicle to compensate for their inability.
I can confirm that regenerative braking does make brake pads last practically forever, since you're not using the brake pads. It's pretty simple and standard.
If I ever have the urge to spend 100k on a meme car I buy 50 used Pontiac Azteks, pick out the crappiest one for myself and go on a quest to gift the rest 49 to professional clowns I meet.
Most of them will still be driven for clown commutes when the last Cybertruck arrives at the hazardous-waste junkyard.
That is the wrong way to use 50 Pontiaz Azteks. The correct way is to shave your head, grow a goatee, and find fifty other guys to do the same and form a troupe of Walter White lookalike who do travel across the country performing Shakespeare.
aren't clown commutes the only reason why a cybertruck is driving around (aside from tech influencers making videos)? The only purpose of that thing is to get an unprofessional clown to his office job and back.
The Fiat Multipla would be my choice
yah good luck buying 50 used azteks for 100k
The thing is, an Aztek is more useful.
any reasonable critique is "ELON HATING" to blue checks on twitter. When a car is this awful, its reasonable to call it as it is.
Who cares? I hate Elon and do not care how many blue check marks get upset. I would invite them round for a civilised chat about it all but that would be like trying to convince a piece of wood on a bonfire not to burn.
@@mr_b_hhc It's ironic to prove them right. I don't give a crap about Elon; what did he do to you that you actively HATE him?
@@billjacobs521well elon musk hates taxes and unions among other things
@@billjacobs521 He advocted for a military coup in Bolivia. Why did he do that? Because Bolivia has the largest reserves of lithium on the planet. Teslas use lithium-ion batteries. Democratically elected president Evo Morales was ousted by a US backed coup because he wanted to nationalise the lithium industry. The fact that Elon came out in support of the coup even suggests that he may have had a part in it, being that he also stands to gain the most from it.
@@billjacobs521 1. Because he did hyperloop as a political ploy to stop california from investing in highspeed rail. 2. He fired 20% of his employees to save 2.4 billion, then asked for a 54 billion dollar bonus. 3. He constantly lies on all his products. 4. He pumps things like web3 and crypto to appeal to crypto finance wannabw bros, which is a brainrot segment of the internet. 5. He accidentally bought twitter and made it worse. 6. He actively insults people who have valid points of view or questions of him and his business practices, basically calling any criticism the corporate equivalent od the wors "fud" by saying the asker is either biased ir jot a "true" journalist.
Saw a cybertruck pretty recently in the wild and all my brain said was “LOOK A POLYGON!” It’s just so lame, plain and simple
Tesla did their own safety testing and reported their "results" to the NTSB. The manufacturers usually do their own testing to get it right. Then they donate a vehicle to the NTSB for official testing.Tesla refuses to donate a truck and the NTSB doesn't have the budget to buy the test vehicles.
As someone who doesn't drive or live in America the only thing I want out of the Cybertruck is be able to own it in GTA 6
Yep hopefully they get the physics for electric thrust working this generation too. In GTA5 they made the Roadster inspired "Coil Voltic" RWD and super lightweight to make the acceleration quicker, to the point that it'd flip at top speed without a spoiler despite the real life version being extremely heavy and AWD. We need realistic mass and acceleration on this hulking refrigerator of a vehicle so that it can apply its true force against Vice City's pedestrians (as long as it's not raining)
A lot of the later DLC cars were better ev’s like the Obey I-Wagen
Yep, keep feeding the machine fellow consumer, have a look at how much money Rockstar made with GTA 5 then when we are all living in the barren desert left after we destroy everything remember that thought...
OMG you’re right, I should never buy anything else ever again!
🤦@@mr_b_hhc
So I guess they designers in the 70s predicted the future correctly after all.
I think even if i was the most faithful man out there, if i got hit by a cybertruck I'd go straight to hell just by association with that fuckass vehicle.
The Cybertruck's overall aesthetic reminds me of Brutalist architecture. Brutalism _can_ look good, but it tends to be shorthand in film for "dystopia" for a good reason.
