everything i learn about cybertrucks makes me realize that they were designed by a 12-year-old who watched iRobot once and thought it was “pretty cool”
This is basically what I did as a kid. The two differences being that my design had 6 wheels and the "blueprint" was made with layered glass. (in our school, we had a machine that could melt glass, and were told go make an art piece with broken pieces of glass)❤
4 year old, actually - supposedly one of the reasons Musk insisted on this aesthetic was because his four year old son, Saxon, randomly commented that “the future doesn’t look like the future”.
Elons definition of a planet is probably a perfectly round orb with no single point of elevation where the only weather is a cool day of spring with not too much sun or wind...and it would probably still get stuck
@@DustD.Reaper I don't think Elon is smart enough to realize that no planet is going to be uniformly spherical unless the entire process of planet formation that we've theorized is wrong. Mostly because you'd need at least a uniform gradient of density and as far as we know that just doesn't happen in real-space.
Vehicle safety in this country is laughable. Cars from like the START of cars, like the Model T, that have steering wheels that can IMPALE the driver and basically no safety features are street legal. But a small Japanese truck that's 100 times safer than the gigantic monsters we have are NOT street legal, because they're foreign.
I don’t understand how you can advertise a car as “Apocalypse-proof” when it needs to be plugged in to working electrical infrastructure to charge, needs to download software updates from the internet before it even starts and can’t even handle a light rain shower without rusting.
Not to mention that even if they had power through something like solar cells, the stupid truck would be bricked extremely quickly by either software issues or general maintenance. You know why they have beat to hell old cars in apocalypse movies? Because they're incredibly basic and repairable by any average joe with some automotive repair training and use of various accessible/swappable parts. You know what's ungodly complex with tons of specialized proprietary parts you'll never have access to? Tesla vehicles.
Here's your $60k truck. Don't get it wet. Don't get it dirty. Don't drive it over sand. Don't drive it over mud. Don't drive it offroad. Don't drive it on regular road. Don't use a carwash. Don't use a car cover. Don't breath on it. Don't look at it funny. Don't. Just don't.
@@cloroker2058That's only for the premium version. According to google you can get cheaper ones for 50k and a bit below 70k. Which is still way too much for this ugly crappy "car".
The cybertruck is what happens when a vehicle manufacturer adopts the same mentality of “release now, fix later” that has plagued AAA game development for years now
@@flexygoo1295 are you stupid? That's not a point in anyone's favor. "His car might sick and be probably one of the worst cars ever made bit YOUVE never made a car!" Guess what? Neither did Elon.
@@jstafriskyhusky2748to also be fair if Yanderedev had the same kind of “fuck you money” that Musk has to buy out a company to humor their crazy bullshit he’d probably have something out by now too. That and, let’s be honest, the only reason this is even real is because of the blood sweat and tears of a bunch of actual engineers told to do the impossible. Not because of Musk specifically aside from bankrolling the project. Say what you want. Yanderedev has technically done more actual development work than Musk ever will in his entire life.
My 2012 Mazda was totalled in a multi-car accident on the freeway in rush hour traffic. It was completely crumpled, but I walked away with literally one scratch. The guy in front of me had a huge pickup truck. The truck had barely a ding, but he suffered whiplash injuries. I can’t even imagine how much worse it would be in a Cybertruck!
Those Mazdas crumple when they need to! Mine got totaled too, but I was totally fine. Wasn’t too bad a crash but if it didn’t have crumple zones it could have been. Miss her. RIP 2012 Mazda.
A fine example of why crumple zones are a thing. If you can have 50 car pileup in winter and keep the number of major injuries and deaths under 5, you are doing your job.
I own a Tesla and it is the best and funnest car I have ever owned. It costs me $30 per month in electricity driving about 1300 miles per month. Other cars feel broken when I drive them after the Tesla. I have a model 3. they are super cheap right now too
@@AlexWeinerA better analogy is that you don't have to be a civil engineer to know when a bridge has already collapsed into the river valley below, leaving a trail of devastation on the mountainside and killing an innocent couple who were out canoeing.
As someone who has used a vibrating sex toy, I can confirm that engineers have successfully tackled the problem of having a waterproof rechargeable electrical device. Which leads me to my theory of the “Dryness Field” that must surround Musk at all times that is further backed up by his rocky relationship with Grimes.
Your data is refutable due to one demographic you forgot to account for: cryptobros enter a state, one that is comparable to an animal preparing to mate, whenever they see or read anything involving Elon. However, Musk is too much of a prude to utilize his fanboy's juices for his R&D.
Look I have no issue with him doing a futurism or a mars if he wants to, he can even be evil. My issue is when do we get that third boob the movies promised us in the future.
@@TrainskitsetcAhhh yes. Since the moment I first saw Total Recall back in the 90’s as a teenager, I too have been waiting for that day with great anticipation!
Is so ridiculous that the metal is that sharp because it means they didn't take the time to deburr the edges which is standard for any metal that's going to be handled.
That’s exactly what I thought too! Like, how CHEAP do you have to be to not fully process cut sheet metal?? Let alone cut sheet metal that is going to be handled regularly as part of the finished product?! It’s just lazy, honestly, he simply doesn’t care.
So cheap they charge $5K for clear coat, which is standard equipment on every other car and truck. And for a material that desperately needs clear coat. What a scam he is perpetuating. His fan boys are such marks.
Why TF are they hardening the sheet metal panels anyway? What a dumb idea, BUT: look how the door panels dent when people shoot guns at it. That deformation suggests its not hardened at all. In other words...it's all BS
@@user-zb9lv3gh8s Which is a blessing in disguise since a car's sheet metal HAS to crumple to absorb as much impact as possible in the case of a collision. If it was perfectly rigid you'd be basically driving around in a brick (not that the cybertruck doesn't already look like one)
@@Zorothegallade-gg7zg yeah, that's not how physics works. the cybertruck does *not* have crumple zones and transmits a tremendous amount of energy into the drivers body. The few bits of crash test footage that have been released look very bad for occupant survival.
In the small mention of the front trunk you had, you forgot the best part. It can crush you finger, yes, but it's designed to close *harder* when met with resistance, AKA A HUMAN FINGER OR BODY PART.
Yup, they have programmed it so that when it can't close for a reason - say, it's packed too tight, and things are flowing out - the next attempt at closing will be with more force. Which is fine if you're trying to stuff sleeping bags and groceries in, but you can imagine how horribly it can go with anything else xD
I’d also like to add that most people who tested it (and DON’T own a cybertruck) used a carrot as a stand in for a human finger. CT owners used their actual fingers once they “fixed” it.
I recall seeing someone sharing how the cybertruck will simply close it's doors/ hood on carrots and pointing out it's a health hazard with how it'd do the same to your fingers, and supposedly the official Tesla response was "we've programmed it so if it meets any resistance it'll assume it's just a bag in the way and try to squash it into place", which is possibly even worse since on top of the health risk maybe you don't want the bag squashed either and it just needs a little shifting around?
They saw other cars with gentle, dainty closing mechanisms that would barely pinch the finger of a toddler before refusing to close any more and thought that whiffed too much of REGULATION, so of course the only option was implementing the Finger Obliterator 3000 with the excuse that the intent was to crush your belongings as opposed to your extremities
@@DazeDawning1that's FREEDOM BROTHER!!!! The freedom to have a vehicle that will perform random amputations...really sticks it to government regulations!!!
@@gwendalynnwatkins1296 Yeah, and they're made that way due to safety concerns, but seems like Cybertruck chose to disregard those. I imagine there's someone/ a few people in the chain of command for it's development who get annoyed when the boot doesn't just close first time even if something's sticking out, and rather than reflecting on why cars have that feature they assumed it was a problem to be fixed.
No, dude, you don't understand. The rusted to shit, held together with shoelaces and scotch tape look while blaring error messages on a cracked screen is essential for the apocalyptic vibe Elon is going for.
12:00 To put into perspective how dumb this "sub-10 micron accuracy" is: A human hair is ~50 microns in diameter. A human red blood cell is approximately 8 microns in diameter. A deviation so small that it's barely visible in a 40x light microscope is apparently "sticking out like a sore thumb". Oh, and an online calculator is telling me that a foot-long sheet of steel will, if the temperature increases by 2C, expand by ~10 microns. So unless the temperature is so strictly regulated during production that there's not even a deviation of 2C, the measurements will already be off.
thank goodness there's nothing that could cause thermal transfer during cutting, processing, or assembling the veilcle for this to be an issue! (this is sarcasm)
Sub 10 microns isn’t mind blowing in machining and manufacturing, but even if a part/body panel is within 10 microns doesn’t mean it’ll line up properly if it’s fitted by stevie wonder
The "10 micron accuracy" remark isn't the first time that Musk has revealed (unintentionally, as he's too ignorant to catch himself) that he lacks the technical understanding of any sophomore engineering student.
I wanna say that as an American, the advertising about it being "bulletproof" is stupid. It seems to be at most to be just below the level of 2A armor. Which is the lowest actual rating of armor. It can only really stop sub-sonic pistol rounds and buckshot, which is AWFUL at getting through things.
@@chaotickreg7024 The glass didn't. It was supposed to be "thermonuclear blast-proof glass." Ball > Nuke. Somebody ought to tell all the defense contractors, internationally. They will save so much money on this new tech! Maybe we can afford universal healthcare finally. At the very least, we won't have to subsidize Musk's whims with our tax money. He'll be so rich from this ball tech, he won't be able to justify taking tax money. Also, he should really look into replacing the whole truck with a bigger version of the ball. It'll be apocalypse proof for sure then. It could be powered by clumsily pushing against it's inner shell in the direction you want to go. Like a hamster ball. He can call it the MuskRat Ball!
Correction: It was not 'tested' and found street legal. The US federal system stated that as its essentially a novelty car, they don't really bother testing its safety. Saying if interest increases and it becomes a serious vehicle, it may be tested. Street legality =/= crash safety generally in the US. It's a weird issue with our laws heavily being mandated by state laws. As California isn't interested in destroying their own business, currently, no one is really regulating it locally. To explain: US federal law is very light on many regulations. Individual states within tend to have very different laws. Sometimes this can be a purely local thing. (I.E. Historically Hawaii has specific restrictions other states do not have, but due to Hawaii being, well, in the ocean, and relatively low population, its regulations tend to not effect national regulations. Similarly, you can imagine if Montana had unique car laws, car manufacturers would just not care.) But California, the state that has historically had a robust car regulation board, is large and important enough, that if it makes a decision, the nation has to kind of follow unless it wishes to destroy any chance of market penetration.
@@Phoenix0F8 it can kinda make sense for things like prototypes, custom racecars, kit cars or bodywork modification not sure how its allowed for actual production vehicles
@@zjanez2868And even then those cars are, 90% of the time, being used for specific purposes on private land (i.e. offroad prototypes being tested in the hills, a NASCAR being transported to a track), while the cybertruck is fully street legal and unregulated. Insane
@@genuinelyspoken6611 Your paper boat is probably more waterproof than the cybertruck, unless it's tissue paper, which is honestly a comparison that shouldn't have the paper boat come out MORE water resistant.
The reason why Tesla's interiors are so minimalistic and everything has to be done through one screen, is that its much cheaper to have one screen and do everything digitally than have actual buttons and switches
My boyfriend and I saw one parked at a store when we were going to a restaurant and I was doubled over laughing at how stupid the thing looked. I thought the cybertruck looked stupid enough in pictures but seeing it in person was just so funny. It looks so so ugly and dumb.
I was with my mom when she saw one on the road last month, having never seen one on the news before, and yelled "what the fuck???" at the driver full volume at a stoplight, windows down.
My understanding of physics boils down to "if you drop a thing, it falls cause gravity" and even I could have told them that driving a hollow brick that doesnt move in a crash is throw you around worse than a badly maintained roller coaster in a sketchy theme park. More evidence for my theory "More money = less inteligence" because eventually they reach the point where, instead of giving it a second look to see if its even a good idea, they just throw more money at it and just expect it to magically work.
Something my mum always said is that lots of people have an intuitive understanding of physics, because we see it in our day to day. People who are bad at physics aren't actually bad at it, they just struggle to put the numbers to it and remember the names for what's happening. Obviously, these tesla simps are out to prove her wrong.
You didn't hear this from me, but.... engineers who work under Elon Musk avoid involving him in the design process. Why? Because when they do, we get the cybertruck.
Just a note on the Tesla hardware vs that of other manufacturers. Part of the reason why other chips are so slow is because they need to be extensively tested for being inside a closed off computer inside a car, under a window, in the summer sun. There is this whole standard for it, and Tesla just decided to forego it, leading to... surprise... recalls for computers overheating when all the cooling units are too busy cooling the batteries.
@@AlexWeiner Google the string "Tesla computer overheat recall". I just did, and it returned dozens of articles talking about how 130,000 Tesla units were recalled because the CPUs overheated. I've spent 30 seconds writing this comment, and it's still taken far longer than it did for me to find sources. Have fun!
@@AlexWeinerGoogle "Tesla computer overheat recalls". It'll return dozens of articles responsive to your inquiry. It took me ten seconds to formulate the string and type it in. Have fun!
the whole billion dollar brick truck not moving during a crash reminds me of that old tumblr post where someone posted a pic of a vintage car that was involved in a crash and the modern one it ran into. the modern car was a scrap heap in the front end while the vintage car barely had a scratch on it. guess which driver didn't get injured?
@@Hungary_0987no. The modern car absorbed the impact, while the vintage car did not. So the driver of the vintsge car prolly became human soup on the inside.
I just saw a story on Reddit where a guy was inspecting his Brand New Cybertruck and an exposed part cut a gash open on his wrist. those cars are hideous AND dangerous, what fun!
It doesn't just rain sulphuric acid on Venus. It's a constant downpour of sulphuric acid 24/7. It's so bad it's melted rovers after minutes and heat up the surface so much the only habitable zone is in the upper atmosphere.
@@Goose_Guy-wm5tv It *very much* depends on the specific acid and the specific plastic. There's hundreds of different compounds on each side of that equation, so it's basically impossible to make an accurate general statement, but from personal experience, there are more common plastic polymers that are solvent in a variety of acids than those that aren't. You could grab some teflon and that won't dissolve in anything, sure, but I don't think you'll have a great time trying to wrap a car in those.
Musk looked at every aspect of a car and asked "huh, I wonder why it's like that?" and instead of learning he decided that actually it was all the other car makers that were wrong.
It's frustrating because when I was a kid, I remember a car company making an experimental prototype where the mandate was to reinvent the car, in the sense that there are a lot things that are designed a certain way just because people are used to them, not because they're the best way to do things. Like the QWERTY keyboard layout versus others that are more efficient. They moved the brake, accelerator, and gear shift to the wheel, made the wheel more ergonomic, moved several engine parts into the floor...I don't remember the details, but it was a really interesting project!
Honestly the best thing about the Cybertruck is how it's exposed how ludicrous American truck regulations are. And I do enjoy how much it's upset truckbros because their truck is no longer the most ostentatious thing on the road. Everybody's looking at the Cybertruck drivers now.
Eh, people legitimately think the Scion xB looks good, so I'm sure there's a shocking percentage of buyers and potential buyers who actually dig the style. Doesn't feel like a yum worth yucking just because of how the public reacts to it
Literally because childish arrogance. One CT muskrat went "I DON' WAN MY CYBERSTRUK DO TO TRUCK STUFF" in the most modern day troglodyte manner imaginable without an ounce of irony or self reflection. Surreal stuff
The whole point of back to the future’s delorian is that the delorian was a notoriously shit car in the 80’s. There’s even a joke in the climax of the movie where Marty starts to panic because it won’t start. It was clunky and unwieldy and handled terribly, with a frame that at the time was considered ugly, and it only got such a cult following because it was in such a wildly successful movie and if not for that fact it would be doomed to be nothing more than a restoration project for an incredibly small niche of collectors. My point being is that if Back to the Future had been made today, they would’ve used a Cybertruck.
Nah man, this is like old 80s - early 90s graphics era. Stuff like Virtua Racer, Stunt Driver for DOS and so much more. Even then, the cars from those games look way more better.
6:43 Voice commands also aren’t accessible to Deaf drivers, as both of my Deaf parents have never been able to get any sort of voice detect function to understand them. I’m sure it’d impact other groups of people too, I’d thought I’d mention that this feature would make cars unusable for people who struggle with voice commands.
mute/nonverbal drivers, too. having a tactile option is so much safer and more accessible, not like this thing would be accessible to them anyways though, since its a $100k polygonal death trap
"Do not wash the car in direct sunlight??" Should I wash it in the rain?! Should I wash it in my garage? Inside a fumigation tent? What is the alternative here? And what do I do in the rain if it says "Don't leave water on it?"
I think the funniest part about the Cybertruck is that while their 100K "all terrain" trucks were broken down after a mere few miles of being on the road, the owners are still simping hard for their broken down eye sores and calling anyone who has a truck that, you know, works, stuck in the past and not advancing humanity forward or some stupid shit. I enjoy laughing at those clowns as I drive past in my perfectly fine, working 20 year old Mitsubishi I only paid 7 grand for all in.
Seen multiple, as someone who like the concept it sadly just doesnt work irl. Issues aside the design could work if it was like Tacoma or Ranger sized but its freaking massive, so imagine a Lambo but now its upsized to the size of or bigger then a Denali, none of the angles make sense on a car that big even if the panel gaps werent a thing. Its just a giant shed sized doorstop thing. I think besides the raw size its being that sort of angular and the beltline just being so high, triangles only work with a low beltline, cybertruck meanwhile has massive flat front that doesnt start angling back until like arm or shoulder height roughly for most people. Its main thing irl is just looking insanely plain, like some kit car but not in a good way, huge flat panels will do that Still less ugly then the Y
Material science student here. Most cars’ materials are just as prone to corrosion. THAT’S WHY THEY USE PAINT. THIS PROBLEM ONLY EXISTS BECAUSE DIPSHIT CHEAPED OUT ON THE PAINT JOB.
If anyone expected the Cybertruck to be good after The Window Video, that's on them. Also, why did they expect the same person who actually managed to make TWITTER worse to be the next Henry Ford? You'd be better off putting the 100K (and counting with all the repair costs...) into a woodchipper.
You don't understand. Elon is such a genius that his ideas aren't compatible with the average person! You aren't smart enough to understand!!!!!!!!1!!1!1!1
Twitter seems fine. Some subscribers and advertisers left because "Elon Musk bad". Some things on Twitter have improved. The problem with Elon is that he gets way too personally involved in that company. That is fine if you're running a tech company and you know what you're talking about. Which he does in the case of Tesla and SpaceX; he's made considerable contributions to the technical and engineering side of their products. But Twitter is NOT a tech company; it's a social media company with a large online community, and that's and entirely different beast. One that Elon does not seem to understand at all. Best thing would be to leave Twitter to someone else to run, set the right policies for it, and then leave it alone. But fair enough, the Cybertruck seems to be plagued by issues, though I don't credit all of them as being major rather than isolated issues due to rushed production - far too many people seem overly eager to see the Cybertruck fail. And there are some decisions I'm still shaking my head over, decisions I suspect Elon had a direct hand in. For one: the lack of proper support centers for his cars. Or what about bulletproof windows... that's a choice you're going to regret when your car goes into the drink. With all of that said, I wouldn't underestimate Elon Musk. By all acounts he is a clever guy, and able to weigh in on complex issues in all of his businesses, but he can also be stubborn and over-confident. If the Cybertruck is really that bad (and if it's really his fault) is too early to say... I would hesitate to buy a first run car with a radical new design from ANY car brand.
$100k could get you a hell of a wood chipper, jokes aside. You could start a mulch business with that money and your new industrial grade wood chipper.
Its very funny you say that because musk buying twitter is the closest he's ever been to being like henry ford. Henry Ford bought out a newspaper to pump out dozens of articles about how the jews were ruining america. They're both racist conspiracy theorists who bought out the press to push their hateful ignorant beliefs on the masses.
@@kaasmeester5903 Elon Musk consistently shows how much he doesn't know about anything he talks about. What contributions to Tesla and SpaceX? The ideas we can directly attribute to him are always shit. Actual experts in the fields he parades around in always point out fundamental issues with his claims and he's too stupid to know how obviously bad he is at things.
Someone in my neighborhood owns a cybertruck. I see it occasionally while on my commute. When I do see it, I make sure to take a little detour because I have no desire to share the road with it. I feel safer knowing that monstrosity isnt within 500 ft of me on the road.

Hust this winter my brother's car broke down, so he thought he might as well try a rental Tesla since he'd otherwise never be able to own one. Well, it broke within a day. As I said, it was winter, as while it didnt snow much it dropped not only below freezing but below l zero quite a lot. Needless to say the battery froze so he then needed a rental car for his rental car. He was pissed since he asked the guy at the rental place if it was be alright to drive during the winter and not once did he mention the issue with the battery. My brother used to think Tesla was cool, now he sees it as a scam.
You should absolutely do a full breakdown. I think people see the common faults and think that's it. But don't catch things like that injury received by the cybertruck driver in the crash? Both his legs were broken. That's where that kinetic energy goes
@@Zhawn7oh jeez I just had a look, it is BAD. First off he's carrying a staff, 2 swords and 2 shields making him incredibly heavy. Heavy rolling in the game is one of the worst ways you can nerf yourself. He was also using a talisman called a "scoreseals" which raises certain attributes in exchange for taking for damage. They can be good for good players during the early game when your stats are low, however elon was at level 111 making the extra damage taken not worth the bonus stats, also extra damage on top of heavy rolling. Another thing is soft caps, where you can keep leveling certain stats but they give diminishing returns so it's not worth it at all. Elon pumped his intelligence up to level 69 despite I think the softcap being at 60 or so. Might be wrong on that. He also only had 30 vigour, vigour is health. Most players sit between 40-50 vigour regardless of build. So he is fat rolling and can't really avoid damage, taking more damage than other players from the scoreseal and has less health than anyone else while doing it.
If you're going for a pure caster, int can be over 60, cause there are some spells that require 70+ int to cast. However, if he's only in the low 100s and has high int but little else, he's probably also not getting good damage out of the big weapons he's lugging around. Even if he used a magic scaling ash of war (im not looking up his build lol), most greatswords/colossal weps/etc scale dex or str primarily. And even with high tier int scaling weapons, as a caster your primary damage is from, yknow, spells, and less from your sword. So it's even more pointless to be fat rolling due to too many weapons disease.
My friend has a cybertruck, and I’ve ridden in it. Can confirm, it looks weird and sucks ass. Watching her try and fiddle with the windshield wiper while going 60 is genuinely terrifying. Also, for some reason, there’s gamer lights under the windows. Why? Who knows. Also also, her brother’s ipad SLID INTO THE CAR when he tried to set the ipad up on the little section that divides the back seats from the front ones. They had to take apart the car to get it out. Tldr, the cybertruck is bad, from someone who has driven for a terrifying 30 minutes in one.
This is like when I realized the 5th grade science fair was the next day (yes that nightmare but real) and made a lego model of an "underwater bus" and when everyone at the fair asked "what why this isn't an experiment? How would it actually work? It's neat you have a brick that lights up but what would that do functionaly??? Also we have submarines??" And I just cried
Pls no one get me wrong it's now the funniest stupid moment of my whole childhood to me that model and the way I tried to explain it was just this wild
And it kills me that the fanboys overlook and justify all of the problems. They just accept it and live with it. If they bought a car from any other manufacturer and it had even a fraction of the problems that Teslas have, they would be losing their minds and declaring it a lemon.
”people smarter than us have decided it was street legal"... Here’s the fun part. It wouldn’t be street legal if it was a car. It is, in fact, a "Light Truck”. An entire vehicle category created by oil and car manufacturing lobbies to avoid safety and environmental regulation with much, MUCH lower standards. This thing is not, in fact, street legal in places with a sane car culture like Europe.
The most embarrassing part of all this is that Tesla isn't even at the forefront of any EV technology anymore, Chinese EV's are eating their (and a couple other companies, but not as much as the meme company that can't make cars) lunch to a severe degree. It's not a good sign when your government has to step in and double the price of your competition. So it's not even "I'm a tech-head strapping myself to the beta rocket to stress-test new technology", you're just a brand loyalist.
There is kind of a reason those Chinese EVs are so cheap - if you think Tesla build quality and safety issues are bad, take a look at the build quality and safety issues with Chinese EVs. I'd never choose to drive a Chinese EV, no matter how cheap it was. Not trying to say teslas or the cybertruck are good - I certainly wouldn't want to buy a tesla and you wouldn't catch me even setting foot in a cybertruck let alone driving one. But they aren't nearly as bad quality as a Chinese EV. You're not saving any money buying a Chinese EV for half the price if it's undrivable in a quarter of the time.
Chinese EVs are death traps. There have already been a few famous incidents of people being trapped inside and burnt alive while people outside are unable to help. They're so dangerous, insurance companies in China have stopped insuring them. I literally wouldn't get in one if you paid me.
I went to the Petersen Automotive Museum a couple of months ago where they have a Tesla section on the first floor. They also have the first manufactured Cybertruck (the one with the shattered window, sadly they replaced the glass) The Cybertruck itself looked kind of shitty, you could see the imperfection of metal on the outer layer. Kind of looked like it was made out of foil.
Having to press inconvenient horrible buttons a bunch of times to make a multi-point turn sounds like an absolute fucking nightmare. Elon Musk's philosophy can be summed up as "if it ain't broke, make it a lot worse."
As soon as I saw people sticking magnets to that thing like it was a Samsung fridge, I knew Elon had cheaped out on the stainless. Magnets should not stick to the special SpaceX 300 series stainless he said it was going to be made out of.
My favorite thing about the cybertruck is the fact that the whole panel and all the gauges got swapped out for an ipad glued to the inside of a dumpster
15:46 ngl, when the names started appearing I was waiting for the line "These aren't my patreon subs by the way, these are the names of content creators who bought and had issues with their cyber truck"
As a software engineer, I would love a car that is entirety controlled by software if I had access to the source. As a human being who knows how software is usually made, I would NEVER take that car on the road.
Some dumbass in our city bought one and now our local reddit/snapchat is just constantly people posting pictures of it and everyone is making fun of them lol
Once you realize that Musk doesn’t like driving and wants Tesla to be a tech company this all makes sense. It’s like if the CEO of Fender hated guitars and only liked dubstep. Design choices should be made by someone who likes to use their products the same way their customers would.
I feel like the cybertruck is what you get when you give all the money in the world to a guy with a little bit of business sense and some technical knowledge but no engineering knowledge and a fanbase that will forgo their engineering knowledge to please daddy Elon
I saw one drive past me at a red light for the very first time. It was even worse in person. It awakened a feeling, a deep desire to carry around tomatoes to throw at it.
ah yes. A real huge beefy big boy truck built tonka tough with the finest of material manufacturing. Able to widthstand the hardhest conditions known to man with 3 MM thick "Space Steel". but also don't let a bird shit on it or it will rust and die.
If I as a ten year old (so early-mid 90s) drew this truck as a concept for a future car, I'd rightly be mocked as having just watched Blade Runner and just stealing that. Honestly my current 'ideal vehicle' is basically just taking a high-quality hybrid, increasing battery capacity as much as possible, and then having the info-tainment panel just be an info-tainment panel and have everything ELSE function like a normal car has functioned over the last 30 to 40 years.
@@None-Trick_Pony iunno if you read the full comment but the joke is the way the truck is marketed versus how it's literally weak to bird shit, a little mud, and getting wet.
"Smarter people than any of us has decided that the car is street legal" - A small correction. It is street legal IN THE USA and not everywhere else. It is for example banned to drive in the EU for not meaning the current European standards. Pretty sure those "smarter people" are also those people who decide "It is legal until someone gets sued over it" is better than "If you want to sell it, prove it is safe first".
i love the genre of social media posts where a cybertruck owner highlights its poor design and/or construction but then adds how happy they are with their purchase
It's so choice. I remember that strain of post pre-Cybertruck when someone's Tesla just wouldn't start or caught ablaze but they take an even, pleasant tone while describing how rad it is that they can't get ahold of anyone at Tesla to resolve the problem.
I live in the Seattle urban sprawl, which has an inordinate amount of Teslas. I have seen three Cybertrucks total, each one with a verifiably different driver, and have never seen them past their initial appearence despite one being parked in the parking lot for the apartment complex next to mine. I guess owning a car prone to rust is a bad idea in an area where it rains half the week in the warmer months. I’m surprised that there was an audience for this thing outside of Elon. I get wanting an EV, but there are so many non-Tesla options now. And even if you were still a Tesla fan against all common sense, none of their other cars are anywhere near as disastrous as the Cybertruck.
I feel that Mr. Kaiju believes that if he talks enough about Elon Musk then we'll all just forget that Outer Wilds was a thing and that script never existed.
Teslas are very good evs. The truck I’m not a fan of. My plaid is amazing. My family have all been happy with theirs, very low maintenance. My plaid is a beast.
I like my Cybertruck because of the incredible safety features. I know from experience that even if I leave it unattended, unlocked, and with a big sign that says "Steal me please," even the most desperate car thieves would rather walk.
I heard they had a huge list of specs when it was first announced, along with a $40k price point. They doubled the price and cut a ton of the specs by the time it was out.
everything i learn about cybertrucks makes me realize that they were designed by a 12-year-old who watched iRobot once and thought it was “pretty cool”
This is basically what I did as a kid. The two differences being that my design had 6 wheels and the "blueprint" was made with layered glass. (in our school, we had a machine that could melt glass, and were told go make an art piece with broken pieces of glass)❤
Elon basically is a 12 year old trapped in a middle aged man's body.
@@supraguy4694 Saying he's like a 12 year old is a massive insult towards 12 year olds.
@@supraguy4694 What's that Bojack Horseman quote... "The age when you get rich is the age you are forever" or something like that.
4 year old, actually - supposedly one of the reasons Musk insisted on this aesthetic was because his four year old son, Saxon, randomly commented that “the future doesn’t look like the future”.
"The car made for _any planet."_ In fairness, most planets don't have liquid water, so it's an understandable oversight.

it's street legal because of lobbying and not because it's as competent as it's advertised to be
If it wasn't for lobbyists you'll see more japanese trucks on the streets and SUVs outright banned
which is why its also not street legal in others XD Can't drive em in Australia or the EU
It is only street legal in the US because the manufacturer can self-certify safety there ....
Vehicle safety in this country is laughable. Cars from like the START of cars, like the Model T, that have steering wheels that can IMPALE the driver and basically no safety features are street legal. But a small Japanese truck that's 100 times safer than the gigantic monsters we have are NOT street legal, because they're foreign.
Typical 'lobbying bad' braindead lefty take
I don’t understand how you can advertise a car as “Apocalypse-proof” when it needs to be plugged in to working electrical infrastructure to charge, needs to download software updates from the internet before it even starts and can’t even handle a light rain shower without rusting.
At some point, enough money divorces you from reality.
You don't understand, elons definition of apocalypse is not having money😅
Apocalypse for rich folks means "poors and negroes" you forget
Or when the Toyota Hilux exists.
Not to mention that even if they had power through something like solar cells, the stupid truck would be bricked extremely quickly by either software issues or general maintenance. You know why they have beat to hell old cars in apocalypse movies? Because they're incredibly basic and repairable by any average joe with some automotive repair training and use of various accessible/swappable parts.

My 2012 Mazda was totalled in a multi-car accident on the freeway in rush hour traffic. It was completely crumpled, but I walked away with literally one scratch.

rip 2012 Mazda, crumple zones did their job
Sounds like your car did one of the jobs it was designed to do, ie protect you. I hope you find something as good as a replacement.
Those Mazdas crumple when they need to! Mine got totaled too, but I was totally fine. Wasn’t too bad a crash but if it didn’t have crumple zones it could have been. Miss her. RIP 2012 Mazda.

Is so ridiculous that the metal is that sharp because it means they didn't take the time to deburr the edges which is standard for any metal that's going to be handled.
That’s exactly what I thought too! Like, how CHEAP do you have to be to not fully process cut sheet metal?? Let alone cut sheet metal that is going to be handled regularly as part of the finished product?! It’s just lazy, honestly, he simply doesn’t care.
So cheap they charge $5K for clear coat, which is standard equipment on every other car and truck. And for a material that desperately needs clear coat. What a scam he is perpetuating. His fan boys are such marks.
Why TF are they hardening the sheet metal panels anyway? What a dumb idea, BUT: look how the door panels dent when people shoot guns at it. That deformation suggests its not hardened at all.

@@user-zb9lv3gh8s Which is a blessing in disguise since a car's sheet metal HAS to crumple to absorb as much impact as possible in the case of a collision. If it was perfectly rigid you'd be basically driving around in a brick (not that the cybertruck doesn't already look like one)

In the small mention of the front trunk you had, you forgot the best part. It can crush you finger, yes, but it's designed to close *harder* when met with resistance, AKA A HUMAN FINGER OR BODY PART.
HUH??
Yup, they have programmed it so that when it can't close for a reason - say, it's packed too tight, and things are flowing out - the next attempt at closing will be with more force. Which is fine if you're trying to stuff sleeping bags and groceries in, but you can imagine how horribly it can go with anything else xD
Cybertruck L elevator doors figured out how to open when met with resistance years ago
What?!
That isnt just not having safety features, thats an anti safety feature.
I’d also like to add that most people who tested it (and DON’T own a cybertruck) used a carrot as a stand in for a human finger.
CT owners used their actual fingers once they “fixed” it.
I recall seeing someone sharing how the cybertruck will simply close it's doors/ hood on carrots and pointing out it's a health hazard with how it'd do the same to your fingers, and supposedly the official Tesla response was "we've programmed it so if it meets any resistance it'll assume it's just a bag in the way and try to squash it into place", which is possibly even worse since on top of the health risk maybe you don't want the bag squashed either and it just needs a little shifting around?
They saw other cars with gentle, dainty closing mechanisms that would barely pinch the finger of a toddler before refusing to close any more and thought that whiffed too much of REGULATION, so of course the only option was implementing the Finger Obliterator 3000 with the excuse that the intent was to crush your belongings as opposed to your extremities
@@DazeDawning1that's FREEDOM BROTHER!!!!

Elon has people to move his bags. He doesn't understand what "stowage" means.

To put into perspective how dumb this "sub-10 micron accuracy" is: A human hair is ~50 microns in diameter. A human red blood cell is approximately 8 microns in diameter. A deviation so small that it's barely visible in a 40x light microscope is apparently "sticking out like a sore thumb".
Oh, and an online calculator is telling me that a foot-long sheet of steel will, if the temperature increases by 2C, expand by ~10 microns. So unless the temperature is so strictly regulated during production that there's not even a deviation of 2C, the measurements will already be off.
Oh. My goodness. This deserved to get pinned that's insane-
thank goodness there's nothing that could cause thermal transfer during cutting, processing, or assembling the veilcle for this to be an issue! (this is sarcasm)
Sub 10 microns isn’t mind blowing in machining and manufacturing, but even if a part/body panel is within 10 microns doesn’t mean it’ll line up properly if it’s fitted by stevie wonder
Well, Musk is a moron, so...
The "10 micron accuracy" remark isn't the first time that Musk has revealed (unintentionally, as he's too ignorant to catch himself) that he lacks the technical understanding of any sophomore engineering student.
I wanna say that as an American, the advertising about it being "bulletproof" is stupid. It seems to be at most to be just below the level of 2A armor. Which is the lowest actual rating of armor. It can only really stop sub-sonic pistol rounds and buckshot, which is AWFUL at getting through things.
It can’t even stop a lightly lobbed metal ball
*nods* You’re saying we have to resort to the canon at the top of the stairs loaded with grapeshot.

He'll be so rich from this ball tech, he won't be able to justify taking tax money. Also, he should really look into replacing the whole truck with a bigger version of the ball. It'll be apocalypse proof for sure then. It could be powered by clumsily pushing against it's inner shell in the direction you want to go. Like a hamster ball. He can call it the MuskRat Ball!
Correction: It was not 'tested' and found street legal. The US federal system stated that as its essentially a novelty car, they don't really bother testing its safety. Saying if interest increases and it becomes a serious vehicle, it may be tested. Street legality =/= crash safety generally in the US. It's a weird issue with our laws heavily being mandated by state laws. As California isn't interested in destroying their own business, currently, no one is really regulating it locally.
To explain: US federal law is very light on many regulations.
Individual states within tend to have very different laws. Sometimes this can be a purely local thing. (I.E. Historically Hawaii has specific restrictions other states do not have, but due to Hawaii being, well, in the ocean, and relatively low population, its regulations tend to not effect national regulations. Similarly, you can imagine if Montana had unique car laws, car manufacturers would just not care.) But California, the state that has historically had a robust car regulation board, is large and important enough, that if it makes a decision, the nation has to kind of follow unless it wishes to destroy any chance of market penetration.

My understanding of physics boils down to "if you drop a thing, it falls cause gravity" and even I could have told them that driving a hollow brick that doesnt move in a crash is throw you around worse than a badly maintained roller coaster in a sketchy theme park.

There’s even a joke in the climax of the movie where Marty starts to panic because it won’t start. It was clunky and unwieldy and handled terribly, with a frame that at the time was considered ugly, and it only got such a cult following because it was in such a wildly successful movie and if not for that fact it would be doomed to be nothing more than a restoration project for an incredibly small niche of collectors.

I think the funniest part about the Cybertruck is that while their 100K "all terrain" trucks were broken down after a mere few miles of being on the road, the owners are still simping hard for their broken down eye sores and calling anyone who has a truck that, you know, works, stuck in the past and not advancing humanity forward or some stupid shit. I enjoy laughing at those clowns as I drive past in my perfectly fine, working 20 year old Mitsubishi I only paid 7 grand for all in.

Same. It was like seeing a big, dumb extremely endangered animal out in the wild. Like seeing a dodo bird irl
Seen multiple, as someone who like the concept it sadly just doesnt work irl. Issues aside the design could work if it was like Tacoma or Ranger sized but its freaking massive, so imagine a Lambo but now its upsized to the size of or bigger then a Denali, none of the angles make sense on a car that big even if the panel gaps werent a thing. Its just a giant shed sized doorstop thing.
I think besides the raw size its being that sort of angular and the beltline just being so high, triangles only work with a low beltline, cybertruck meanwhile has massive flat front that doesnt start angling back until like arm or shoulder height roughly for most people.
Its main thing irl is just looking insanely plain, like some kit car but not in a good way, huge flat panels will do that
Still less ugly then the Y

If anyone expected the Cybertruck to be good after The Window Video, that's on them. Also, why did they expect the same person who actually managed to make TWITTER worse to be the next Henry Ford? You'd be better off putting the 100K (and counting with all the repair costs...) into a woodchipper.
You don't understand. Elon is such a genius that his ideas aren't compatible with the average person! You aren't smart enough to understand!!!!!!!!1!!1!1!1
Twitter seems fine. Some subscribers and advertisers left because "Elon Musk bad". Some things on Twitter have improved. The problem with Elon is that he gets way too personally involved in that company. That is fine if you're running a tech company and you know what you're talking about. Which he does in the case of Tesla and SpaceX; he's made considerable contributions to the technical and engineering side of their products. But Twitter is NOT a tech company; it's a social media company with a large online community, and that's and entirely different beast. One that Elon does not seem to understand at all. Best thing would be to leave Twitter to someone else to run, set the right policies for it, and then leave it alone.
But fair enough, the Cybertruck seems to be plagued by issues, though I don't credit all of them as being major rather than isolated issues due to rushed production - far too many people seem overly eager to see the Cybertruck fail. And there are some decisions I'm still shaking my head over, decisions I suspect Elon had a direct hand in. For one: the lack of proper support centers for his cars. Or what about bulletproof windows... that's a choice you're going to regret when your car goes into the drink.
With all of that said, I wouldn't underestimate Elon Musk. By all acounts he is a clever guy, and able to weigh in on complex issues in all of his businesses, but he can also be stubborn and over-confident. If the Cybertruck is really that bad (and if it's really his fault) is too early to say... I would hesitate to buy a first run car with a radical new design from ANY car brand.
$100k could get you a hell of a wood chipper, jokes aside. You could start a mulch business with that money and your new industrial grade wood chipper.
Its very funny you say that because musk buying twitter is the closest he's ever been to being like henry ford. Henry Ford bought out a newspaper to pump out dozens of articles about how the jews were ruining america. They're both racist conspiracy theorists who bought out the press to push their hateful ignorant beliefs on the masses.
@@kaasmeester5903 Elon Musk consistently shows how much he doesn't know about anything he talks about. What contributions to Tesla and SpaceX? The ideas we can directly attribute to him are always shit. Actual experts in the fields he parades around in always point out fundamental issues with his claims and he's too stupid to know how obviously bad he is at things.
Someone in my neighborhood owns a cybertruck. I see it occasionally while on my commute. When I do see it, I make sure to take a little detour because I have no desire to share the road with it. I feel safer knowing that monstrosity isnt within 500 ft of me on the road.

Hust this winter my brother's car broke down, so he thought he might as well try a rental Tesla since he'd otherwise never be able to own one. Well, it broke within a day. As I said, it was winter, as while it didnt snow much it dropped not only below freezing but below l zero quite a lot. Needless to say the battery froze so he then needed a rental car for his rental car. He was pissed since he asked the guy at the rental place if it was be alright to drive during the winter and not once did he mention the issue with the battery. My brother used to think Tesla was cool, now he sees it as a scam.

You should absolutely do a full breakdown. I think people see the common faults and think that's it. But don't catch things like that injury received by the cybertruck driver in the crash? Both his legs were broken. That's where that kinetic energy goes
The fact that people saw his Elden Ring build and still thought this man was smart it wild to me.
I'm curious, can you explain his build? I'm not that knowledgeable of Elden Ring.
@@Zhawn7guy just had a bunch of stats that really clashed with echother
@@Zhawn7oh jeez I just had a look, it is BAD. First off he's carrying a staff, 2 swords and 2 shields making him incredibly heavy. Heavy rolling in the game is one of the worst ways you can nerf yourself.
He was also using a talisman called a "scoreseals" which raises certain attributes in exchange for taking for damage. They can be good for good players during the early game when your stats are low, however elon was at level 111 making the extra damage taken not worth the bonus stats, also extra damage on top of heavy rolling.
Another thing is soft caps, where you can keep leveling certain stats but they give diminishing returns so it's not worth it at all. Elon pumped his intelligence up to level 69 despite I think the softcap being at 60 or so. Might be wrong on that.
He also only had 30 vigour, vigour is health. Most players sit between 40-50 vigour regardless of build. So he is fat rolling and can't really avoid damage, taking more damage than other players from the scoreseal and has less health than anyone else while doing it.
If you're going for a pure caster, int can be over 60, cause there are some spells that require 70+ int to cast.
However, if he's only in the low 100s and has high int but little else, he's probably also not getting good damage out of the big weapons he's lugging around. Even if he used a magic scaling ash of war (im not looking up his build lol), most greatswords/colossal weps/etc scale dex or str primarily. And even with high tier int scaling weapons, as a caster your primary damage is from, yknow, spells, and less from your sword. So it's even more pointless to be fat rolling due to too many weapons disease.
@mottski1 and the fool has no spell slots.
My friend has a cybertruck, and I’ve ridden in it. Can confirm, it looks weird and sucks ass. Watching her try and fiddle with the windshield wiper while going 60 is genuinely terrifying. Also, for some reason, there’s gamer lights under the windows. Why? Who knows. Also also, her brother’s ipad SLID INTO THE CAR when he tried to set the ipad up on the little section that divides the back seats from the front ones. They had to take apart the car to get it out.
Tldr, the cybertruck is bad, from someone who has driven for a terrifying 30 minutes in one.

This is like when I realized the 5th grade science fair was the next day (yes that nightmare but real) and made a lego model of an "underwater bus" and when everyone at the fair asked "what why this isn't an experiment? How would it actually work? It's neat you have a brick that lights up but what would that do functionaly??? Also we have submarines??" And I just cried
Pls no one get me wrong it's now the funniest stupid moment of my whole childhood to me that model and the way I tried to explain it was just this wild
That’s pretty good lol
And it kills me that the fanboys overlook and justify all of the problems. They just accept it and live with it. If they bought a car from any other manufacturer and it had even a fraction of the problems that Teslas have, they would be losing their minds and declaring it a lemon.
Its because they want to be part of the Teslacult.
”people smarter than us have decided it was street legal"...
Here’s the fun part. It wouldn’t be street legal if it was a car. It is, in fact, a "Light Truck”. An entire vehicle category created by oil and car manufacturing lobbies to avoid safety and environmental regulation with much, MUCH lower standards.
This thing is not, in fact, street legal in places with a sane car culture like Europe.
The most embarrassing part of all this is that Tesla isn't even at the forefront of any EV technology anymore, Chinese EV's are eating their (and a couple other companies, but not as much as the meme company that can't make cars) lunch to a severe degree. It's not a good sign when your government has to step in and double the price of your competition.
So it's not even "I'm a tech-head strapping myself to the beta rocket to stress-test new technology", you're just a brand loyalist.
Dude I don't trust chinese EVs for shit. They have all the incentives to lie and there is a shit ton of videos about the QA oversight.
Tesla absolutely is just the famous early bird who coasts off of past fame thinking it'll indefinitely last
There is kind of a reason those Chinese EVs are so cheap - if you think Tesla build quality and safety issues are bad, take a look at the build quality and safety issues with Chinese EVs. I'd never choose to drive a Chinese EV, no matter how cheap it was. Not trying to say teslas or the cybertruck are good - I certainly wouldn't want to buy a tesla and you wouldn't catch me even setting foot in a cybertruck let alone driving one. But they aren't nearly as bad quality as a Chinese EV. You're not saving any money buying a Chinese EV for half the price if it's undrivable in a quarter of the time.
Chinese EVs are death traps. There have already been a few famous incidents of people being trapped inside and burnt alive while people outside are unable to help. They're so dangerous, insurance companies in China have stopped insuring them. I literally wouldn't get in one if you paid me.

The Cybertruck looks like someone tried to draw an El Camino on an Etch-a-Sketch.
I went to the Petersen Automotive Museum a couple of months ago where they have a Tesla section on the first floor. They also have the first manufactured Cybertruck (the one with the shattered window, sadly they replaced the glass)
The Cybertruck itself looked kind of shitty, you could see the imperfection of metal on the outer layer. Kind of looked like it was made out of foil.
Having to press inconvenient horrible buttons a bunch of times to make a multi-point turn sounds like an absolute fucking nightmare. Elon Musk's philosophy can be summed up as "if it ain't broke, make it a lot worse."
Create the problem. Sell the solution. Literal definition of snake-oil.
As soon as I saw people sticking magnets to that thing like it was a Samsung fridge, I knew Elon had cheaped out on the stainless. Magnets should not stick to the special SpaceX 300 series stainless he said it was going to be made out of.
Ill say it everytime. The Cybertruck is a vehicle made in gmod brought to reality.

Once you realize that Musk doesn’t like driving and wants Tesla to be a tech company this all makes sense. It’s like if the CEO of Fender hated guitars and only liked dubstep. Design choices should be made by someone who likes to use their products the same way their customers would.

- A small correction. It is street legal IN THE USA and not everywhere else. It is for example banned to drive in the EU for not meaning the current European standards.
Pretty sure those "smarter people" are also those people who decide "It is legal until someone gets sued over it" is better than "If you want to sell it, prove it is safe first".
i love the genre of social media posts where a cybertruck owner highlights its poor design and/or construction but then adds how happy they are with their purchase
It's so choice. I remember that strain of post pre-Cybertruck when someone's Tesla just wouldn't start or caught ablaze but they take an even, pleasant tone while describing how rad it is that they can't get ahold of anyone at Tesla to resolve the problem.
I live in the Seattle urban sprawl, which has an inordinate amount of Teslas. I have seen three Cybertrucks total, each one with a verifiably different driver, and have never seen them past their initial appearence despite one being parked in the parking lot for the apartment complex next to mine. I guess owning a car prone to rust is a bad idea in an area where it rains half the week in the warmer months.
I’m surprised that there was an audience for this thing outside of Elon. I get wanting an EV, but there are so many non-Tesla options now. And even if you were still a Tesla fan against all common sense, none of their other cars are anywhere near as disastrous as the Cybertruck.
