how tf are these things insurable, or even in compliance with federal motor vehicle safety standards?
how tf are these things insurable
That's the neat part, they aren't.
or even in compliance with federal motor vehicle safety standards?
Because American standards only focus on the safety of those inside the vehicle, they also assume that the manufacturers make the frame out of something at least a little stronger than wet tissue paper.
That thread is a swasticar support group.
To be fair, if I spent 60% of a house on such a useless vehicle, then I would probably need a lot of support too.
(In case the link expires, it links to a real estate listing costing 243,500 CAD or 171,000 USD. Meaning that the Swastdumpster would cost 58.4% of a rather nice house located here)
The black actually looks sick on this
I was going to say. It's not my style, but that matte finish looks better than stock for sure.
Doing as much as possible to obscure its general shape can only make it look better.
I have also seen some "cyber" paint jobs that look decent on it. But, it sucks getting an expensive paint job on it before it falls apart. And there are much nicer looking base cars to take advantage of a cyber paint job, like pretty much any recent lamborghini or even lower priced techie looking cars.
It makes me want to be sick on this.
Pretty sure that’s just a SwaziTruck in general thing.
The prophecy has been fulfilled yet again
Wait it's really that thin??
What about the fact that the upper control arm seems to be mounted with 4 small bolts
Well bolts are usually steel. The frame is aluminium. I assume the bolts would just shear off the frame entirely.
Holy shit.
So the thing in the OPs pic was done by some kid that kicked the tyre?
I think my Miata and Tercel have thicker control arms, and they're both a pinch heavier than 2000 lbs.
I feel like I have seen this exact same damage multiple times already for the cyber truck. Same wheel and everything, front passenger side.
There must be some extremely faulty design with that wheel.
Oh, they turn that way for ez parking.
Kachow.
Is it supposed to do that?
I would like to say that if it was 2018-ish and Elmo was just running around with "not a flamethrower", this dumpster would still be a piece of shit.
wouldn't surprise me it's Trump gives Tesla a military contract to mass produce cybershites for the military.
let the military get fucked with them.
Frame not suspension?

A place to post your Cybertruck fails! We're here to make fun of this hunk of shit and throw as much shade as we can to that garbage bag of a human elon.
