Had the whole bottle I presume?
Forgetting the death trap electronics and whatnot for a second…
How are you supposed to propel yourself and steer?
Well, the guy did say “briefly”, so if you drive into the water with speed and the right direction, you might theoretically not need to propel yourself nor steer…
There are lots of amphibious vehicles that just do that with existing tires.
“Jimmy Jack McDaniel” well well well, if it isn’t the man with three first names. (I know I’m stretching on McDaniel but c’mon this guy is the posterchild for stupid decisions)
I disagree, anyone with sense knew everything Elon claimed about this thing was a lie.
How could anyone know Elon was lying? His cyber truck windows were unbreakable!!
CHUNKK PLINK plink Oh my fucking god!
A customer also has to activate Free Roll, which leaves the vehicle in Neutral without applying the parking brake.
Oh good, they came up with a stupid new term for something that people know, understand, has been around for well over 50 years.
Jimmy Jack McDaniel
Yep.
Dude is so close to being named after 3 fast food chains
I never thought I’d see three first names like this. Wild.
Let us not forget that the goddamn thing can brick if you don’t put it in “car wash mode” before going through a car wash. 🤦♂️
They’re also literally death traps.
If the battery pops, starts burning?
You now have to scramble to find the extremely awkward hidden emergency manual door release.
Because the main door handles, both internal and external, are fucking fly by wire, they rely on the electronics, they’re not directly mechanical.
Oh and the ‘bullet proof glass’ that makes up the windows… well its not very bullet proof, but it is significantly harder for a human to break than normal car glass.
Like this guy is unironically lucky he did not drown and also burn to death at the same time.
Yeah i don’t get it. Like, if you can’t even give your car a standard, everyday wash without it either bricking or rusting, and there are stories of people being fucking trapped in them due to electronics failures, why the ever loving fuck would you drive it into a goddamn lake you fucking troglodyte?!
I really don’t think any car ever has been as rock solid of indicator of ‘I am a mentally impaired douchebag with far more money than sense’.
Like… sure, pick your class of car that’s just wildly unnecessary, pick your brand of car that’s actually notorious for incredible maintenance costs, pick your model of car that’s just plauged by recalls…
Cybertruck trumps everything as the ultimate poser douchebag vehicle.
Is this a joke? FFS…
It’s not necessarily permanent, but imagine not being able to use your car for at least five hours after a standard cleaning because you forgot to switch it into car wash mode.
Right after release, firefighters failed to rescue a woman, Angela Chao, from a cybertruck which rolled into a pond killing her.
Fun fact, most articles about this appear to have been removed from search indexes, it was difficult to find on both DuckDuckGo and Google, and Google’s AI summary will claim there is no record of a cybertruck killing a billionaire.
Was she a billionaire?
I assume they don’t kill billionaires.
Not that it was a capable boat in the first place, but I don’t know many boats that function well upside-down.
Kayaks self correct I suppose
The NYT article used as a citation doesn’t appear to say that, but I could be mistaken, if so mb.
The NYT article cited in the Wikipedia article only says it was a Tesla. The WSJ article also cited does specify it was a Model X.
Ty for the correction.
no record of a cybertruck killing a billionaire
That’s because they’re not stupid enough to buy a deathtrap like that, and if a billionaire wants a vehicle that can traverse water they’ll just use a submarine, preferably one made with a carbon fiber hull
Angela Chao. Angela Chao was murdered by Elon Musk. The Cybertruck which Angela Chao owned and operated killed her.
Angela Chao died in her cybertruck. Angela Chao died in her cybertruck. Angela Chao died in her cybertruck.
Do you need me to say it a few more times for it to pierce your thick skull?
I am honestly a little upset there is still somebody who thinks being a billionaire implies any minimum level of intelligence. And yes I know about the imploded submarine, but I have to assume you as serious when you don’t annotate sarcasm.
Angela Chao was murdered by Elon Musk
Not liking Musk is all cool and fine, but throwing around wild fucking accusations like this is absolute insanity and you should seriously go outside to touch some grass
but i have to assume you as serious when you don’t annotate sarcasm.
You don’t actually have to do that, you don’t have to do that, you don’t have to do that
Do you need me to say it a few more times for it to pierce your thick skull?
Found many credible sources, all say Model X SUV.
I have no idea who Angela Chao is, but Elon Musks cybertruck killed her
It was actually a model x that killed her.
Well it’s an amphibious exploring vehicle, so it should be fine
Think of the implications
Turns out, licking boots and driving a CyberTruck won’t get you a Get Out of Jail Free card like Trump and Elon.
At least you can see the product of their last two braincells rubbing together, floating in the lake.
Get Out of Water Free card.
Welcome to the Tesla Cybertruck Deep Dive
let’s briefly cross a sea (that ain’t too choppy, if it gets choppy you’ll sink so make it brief)
So the guy is called Jack Daniel . It checks out.
Sue for false advertising
