The Cybertruck Heads to War With Militarized Upgrades
The Cybertruck Heads to War With Militarized Upgrades
A company is offering to up-armor Cybertrucks and Chechnya's dictator rolled a machine-gun armed Cybertruck through the streets of his country's capital.
Ramzan Kadyrov, the brutal dictator of Chechnya and prominent Putin ally, has invited Elon Musk to visit him in Grozny. Kadyrov wrote the invitation in a Telegram post where he praised the Cybertruck below a video of him driving the stainless steel monstrosity around Chechen city streets.
Kadyrov smiled like a child while driving the Cybertruck. “We received a Tesla Cybertruck from the respected Elon Musk,” the post said. “I was pleased to test the new technology and was personally convinced that it is called the ‘Cyberbeast’. A real invulnerable and fast animal.”
The bed of the Cybertruck was open and someone had mounted a Russian PK machine gun in the bed. Kadyrov said the car was a dream to drive and that they may soon send it to his soldiers. “I express my sincere gratitude to Elon Musk! He is, of course, the strongest genius of our time…a great man!” He said on Telegram.

The Cybertruck being used to quash freedom. Musk would have been Hitler's right hand man.
The Henry Ford of our time (except for Elon not having the mechanical skills I guess). Musk probably would take that as a compliment, but I mean it as an insult
He would simply nazi the nuance of that analogy.
Got DANG!!!! How could I NOT upvote a pun like that???
Was Henry Ford technical? I always thought he was, but now that I am older and our current "mavericks" are paper tigers, I wonder how much cult of personality colored our history books.
From what I've read and watched about the man, he's not known for being an engineer, but the manager who streamlined the production and made sure his factory produced every part for his vehicles, so he isn't dependent on suppliers and contractors, and could stamp them as fast as it was humanly possible at the time. With Musk, well, I'm not sure he is even involved enough to know what corners he can safely cut except for safety regulations and QA.
Ford at least started the company he's known for, whereas Elon took Tesla over and unceremoniously squeezed out the two actual founders.
