Buy a cybertruck, they are best vehicle ever, except a few catches.

Like for example you can't wash it or it'll break, cant drive it or the wheels will fall off, and best not to sit in it either incase it traps you inside.

This is quite possibly the greatest product America has ever made. Well atleast its affordable.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 58 points 3 weeks ago

Wonder why no one is suing yet. I’m legitimately confounded by the absence of lawsuits

[-] philycheeze@sh.itjust.works 55 points 3 weeks ago

I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a contracted arbitration or something…

[-] grue@lemmy.world 24 points 3 weeks ago

I am sick and tired of the war on property rights. The amount of companies trying to misrepresent product as services in order to seize undeserved control is too damn high!

[-] DarkSirrush@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 weeks ago

The ones that had by far the best grounds to sue burnt to death.

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Well, the guy who made the trucks gutted the CFPB a few months back...

[-] Crikeste@lemm.ee 22 points 3 weeks ago

Don’t touch the doors or the panel will fall off.

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 19 points 3 weeks ago

You can safely touch the emergency door release cover. That panel will NOT come off.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Apparently it's strong enough to keep it's passengers inside to be burned alive.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

Lol and don't slam the doors!

For the record, if you slam the doors the inside part comes partially loose and catches on the interior, so that when you open the door again the inside part tears away (literally tears like a rag).

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

lol wtf... it's like people discover a new design disaster every day. you ever seen those design challenges where people try to come up with absolutely awful UI or terribly unusable everyday objects... it's like they deliberately did that for a truck.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

those design challenges where people try to come up with absolutely awful UI

You mean mobile apps in general? lol

[-] PleaseLetMeOut@lemm.ee 10 points 3 weeks ago

Well atleast its affordable.

Starting price is like $82,000, or $101k with options lol

Same. I washed my hair yesterday and I had a heart attack. I also washed my stainless steel forks and they rust in a few minutes. It's the worst.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Both heart and forks very good quality, very very good. Very expensive.

[-] Helvetica@sh.itjust.works 72 points 3 weeks ago

Ok, so a car wash kills it. What happens when it rains? Do they sell a giant umbrella to mount on the stupid ass thing?

[-] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 64 points 3 weeks ago

Apparently part of the frame fills up with water until the level gets high enough to short some critical internal wiring

[-] droans@midwest.social 35 points 3 weeks ago

Smh y'all will do anything to disparage Teslers.

The driver does something stupid, such as getting the car wet, and the car sometimes shuts itself down instead of catching fire.

No other car even tries to stop itself after getting wet! Can't you see how much better they are?! Have you even said thank you once? In this conversation?

[-] xorollo@leminal.space 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Thank you

Jesus Christ

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 weeks ago

Drill some holes in the lowest parts of the frame?

[-] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 4 points 3 weeks ago

That might just do the trick, I don't know what's beneath that bit of frame tho

[-] locahosr443@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

More water probably

[-] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

With holes in it for sure

[-] HaveMeOnYourPodcast@lemmy.world 57 points 3 weeks ago

You remember when he said it would function as a boat.

[-] stankmut@lemmy.world 57 points 3 weeks ago

Like a boat, you don't get to use it as much as you like and you have to keep throwing money at it.

[-] ChapulinColorado@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

And the 2 happiest days of ownership are when you get it and when you get rid of it. Although I’m guessing some people might be having second thoughts as they take delivery given all the news about the build quality. Truly revolutionary, making boats seem reliable.

[-] modeler@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

An example of a boat is the Titanic. But given the tendency to burst into flames, perhaps the Felicity Ace or the Moskva might be more accurate.

[-] ThefuzzyFurryComrade@pawb.social 56 points 3 weeks ago

Note that the charger is stuck.

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago

Guess they don’t know about the string you yank hidden in the tailgate to unlock it manually

[-] uranibaba@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

What’s up with that? Did they wash it while charging?

[-] BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml 36 points 3 weeks ago

It sounds like it didn't die in the carwash but overnight, so my guess is they plugged it in overnight after the wash and after it died the plug won't unlock maybe?

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago

You gotta be a special kind of broken to not have power while plugged in.

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 3 points 3 weeks ago

IIRC, the chassis has some places where water can pool inside without drainage holes, and wiring runs through those trays. It could be that the car was fine for a while until the owner tried charging it, which would've tripped a fuse or something.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 44 points 3 weeks ago

So the Cyberfuck is:

Not bulletproof
Not waterproof
Can't handle mud or snow
Can't handle the sun
Can't handle parking lots

Did I miss anything?

[-] Jumi@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

• fucking ugly

[-] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Can rust even under ideal conditions

[-] Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago

Wasn’t it supposed to be amphibious. Don’t forget headlight shelf gets clogged with snow

[-] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Except it was literally was advertised as being as such.

https://electrek.co/2024/02/21/tesla-cybertruck-drives-through-water-real-world-wade-mode-test/

Last year, Musk claimed Tesla Cybertruck would be “waterproof enough” to serve as a boat and cross rivers:

Cybertruck will be waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat, so it can cross rivers, lakes and even seas that aren’t too choppy.

Also let's not forget about how the tow hitch can't tow.

[-] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

They're pointing out the same thing as you. But yeah it's really dumb

[-] carrion0409@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Its crazy to me that my little V4 Hyundai elantra is better at off roading than that hunk of junk.

Still love the truck /s

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 35 points 3 weeks ago

Absolutely, that truck is a beast. It can carry a whole dead cybertruck all the way to the service center!

[-] dmention7@lemm.ee 7 points 3 weeks ago

lol... you're getting downvoted even with the sarcasm tag

Apparently 22 mf's hate the cybertruck so much they forget how to read

[-] don@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah I gotta admit I love ‘em when they’re dead too and when they get tagged with really cool graffiti I love that

[-] LostWon@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 weeks ago

Doesn't using a car wash without putting the car in "car wash mode" first void its warranty, or was that false news? (I don't remember where I heard it.) Nice way to make a lot of unsuspecting people void their warranty.

[-] carrion0409@lemm.ee 10 points 3 weeks ago

Mfw my little hyundai hatchback is more durable than a supposed "prepper vehicle"

[-] Enceladus@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago

Ironically, gasoline is recommended to wash Stainless Steel.
