This thing is stupid.
the hot glue panel and gas pedal assembly is Musk genius. You don't understand.
Why make it safe if you can still sell it to morons?
Btw, nobody sued them?
They likely made people waive their right to sue in buying it, welcome to the 21st century.
Airtight contract. Locked up tighter than a family in one of these things when they're burning.
Indeed it is. If it had amazing capabilities and performance off road, if it was bulletproof, if its body panels (and apparently wheels) wouldnt fall off, if it had perfect self driving capabilities... It would still be stupid.
But it doesn't have any of those tings. Its extremely stupid.
the purpose of the cybertruck was that he can show the shareholders that he deserved that 56bn payout.
And it sucks even as that.
The shareholders are morons.
The Cybertruck, or our current reality? I'm torn...
