I’m indeed very well aware how deep the anti-Tesla biased reporting has descended to...

You can’t reach into the bed from the side. The tailgate doesn’t close automatically. The windshield is absurdly flat and large so the big windshield wiper fails. The pedals fall off until you bolt them back on. The unpainted stainless is so hard to clean that half of buyers are wrapping the vehicle. The door handles…

They’re a known Tesla shill around here.

Steering issues, accelerator pedal recall, ride issues, wiper issues, and having to “wash” my vehicle with isopropyl alcohol to name only a few off the top of my head. I won’t even get into the issues of people getting hurt on the sharp edges or unnecessary cost cutting measures that make a $100K vehicle feel cheap as…

I can’t help you if you haven’t been following along. As someone who’s deeply embedded in the industry and works with all the OEMs for over 25 years, I’ll just stand by my words. However, most of what I’m referring to has been discussed on this website along with many other media and social media outlets.

“I would trust a Fisker Ocean (no long on sale) or even a VinFast before taking a Cybertruck on the road.”

None of the features you mentioned (except for maybe the voltage) are unique in any way and are technologies that have been around for a decade or more. The steer-by-wire is not the first, but is apparently the first without a mechanical fail-safe. So the Cybertruck IS the best at deleting practical engineering and…

How about all the recalls?

Yes the Cybertruck is objectively terrible as a vehicle.  When you have to take pictures at a Home Depot with stuff in the bed that proves it can truck things, it can’t do truck things.

Moron does moronic thing to a moronic truck designed by a moron.

Further proving that anyone even considering a cybertruck is far below average in intelligence.

No, you’re not. The situation of not testing every vehicle sold for operations on public highways effectively creates a ‘some people are above the law’ situation and don’t have to comply with regulations. This is a situation where the NHTSA needs to take a firm hand.  No test results, no clearance to sell.…

Yeah, I’m trying to picture Immortan Joe’s Half-Life War Boys yelling ‘CANbus! CANbus! CANbus!” and grabbing wiring harnesses from a huge pile before setting off shiny and chrome on the Fury Road...

Sort of. It’s more trouble than it’s worth for an insurance company to repair it at a shop to 100% condition. There are times when a totaled vehicle is worth bringing back on the road:

Truly, the most apocalypse ready vehicle is one that requires and endless series of software checks and troubleshooting that ultimately doesn’t work.

1st Gear: Just further proof that Americans are the dumbest fucking people on the face of the planet.

Yeah, they are spending thousands per CyberTurd to improve the “efficiency” for the owners out of the goodness of their hearts. Sure they are... I’m rarely one for conspiracy theories, but this had to be something *bad* that they don’t want to end up as a public recall.

Turns out you can’t patch physical material with OTA updates.

“Tesla went above and beyond to fix my truck today and get it back to me this afternoon. Very happy. The Tesla Pensacola service center stepped up and did an awesome job.”

I’ve seen 3 of these in Denver. 1 of which was broken down on the side of the road. I can’t imagine picking up my 4Runner from the dealer, driving it home, having to get it flat bedded back to the dealer the same hour, then thanking Toyota for the experience.
