Cybertruck guy: let’s talk about who can take a bigger load in the rear
I wish modern men would finally come to terms with the reality that almost every contentious social issue boils down to them having some kind of sexual insecurity.
I'm not even kidding.
Nope, nah, nuh uh. Factually untrue. Minimum 50% of those issues are due to....checks notes....yeesh, sorry...you had it right.
Fuck you my contentious social issues comes from metastisized childhood trauma! I am beyond thine social hypothesis!
You're so right. I read a thing way back that argued that straight male friendships so often end up feeling weirdly homoerotic because they have been conditioned to see women as less than men, which means that overwhelmingly men seek respect, admiration, validation etc. from other men. "From women they want devotion, service and sex.” ^[1]
Edit: This is one of the things I read on this topic, if you're interested.
[1]: this quote is from feminist theorist Marilyn Fryre, though I don't know where specifically; I haven't actually read any of her work, just a couple of quotes
Everytime one of these cybercuck owners opens their mouth you can just tell how insecure they are are with their masculinity.
It's not the fact that it's electric that makes it a piece of shit.
EDIT: Also, when you say go charge my battery "and watch", am I charging my watch or am I watching you while my battery charges? Why does my watch having a battery have to do with anything?
Right, it's the poorly cast aluminum frame and wheels. It's also the glued on body panels. Oh, and it's suuuper ugly.
Also the untreated steel panels that rust, the automatic trunk with no safety sensors that will chop your fingers off, the badly glued-on accelerator pedal that can easily slip off causing the pedal to get stuck... You know, the little things.
It's not really a truck, it is something else cosplaying as a truck. It was never build to haul real cargo.
I have one family member who likes the look. Yes, I almost disowned my own mother when I heard.
lol, I think it was more in the vein of: "watch me" rather than "charge your watch"
Is it a dangling modifier? I have no idea, I was never really good at grammar or whatever this is.
Why are these people trying to flex on...farmers without knowing anything about farmers (and how much their vehicles can carry)? Did they do a publicity stunt where they sourced a bale? Are they farmers who didn't have a vehicle before the cybertruck to do all the very vehicle dependent farm tasks? Or did purchasing the cybertruck convince them now's the time to break into farming?
I hate to admit it, but that paint job upgrades it from "Ugly as all fuck" to "pretty ugly"
going with a triangle low-poly pattern is probably the only thing that can make the shape of the car make any sort of sense, i've never understood how the flat bare metal look is supposed to be appealing
never understood how the flat bare metal look is supposed to be appealing
yeah, at best it's edgy. not in a culturally significant or stylistically way, it's just geometry. it's all fucking edges. it looks like the car a 3 year old would draw.
tesla, you had such potential.
They sell it to you like a Warhammer figure, you gotta paint it yourself
It's just mimicking dazzle camo.
You don't REALLY think it's been upgraded, the camo just tricks your brain into thinking it does...
Now this guy won't have to fear getting hit by a WWI-era torpedo anymore. Tesla owner 1, Kaiserliche Marine 0!
It's hilarious how many I see that are wrapped - the wrapped ones far outnumber unwrapped. Why did you pay so much for a stainless steel truck just to wrap it? If everyone is wrapping them, why bother with the heavy stainless steel?
I saw a meme the other day with one that was wrapped to look like an F-150. ... just....why? You can buy an electric F-150 if that's what you want.
Hard disagree that basic silver is a worse color. How many csgo skins do you own lol
In my opinion, the basic color looks like it's been built with random scrap metal. (not far from the truth tbf) When it has paint or a wrap on it, at least it looks like some effort or quality was put into it.
IMO that makes it look even worse lol
I'm one-upping your one-upping.
Cybertrucks being the ones where they had to save weight ON THE FRAME because their stupid stainless panels on the outside THAT DO NOTHING weigh so much.
stainless steel exoskeleton... if by exoskeleton you mean paneling, and by skeleton you mean cast aluminum frame everything is poorly glued to.
the vehicle is a fucking joke in every possible way, it's designed incompetence.
Imagine buying a $100k unibody "truck" and talking about somebody else's frame breaking. Also, that bale is likely around 900lbs, which you wouldn't need a very big truck for, regardless.
900lbs is 4 fat adults. My sedan could haul that.
I can attest my wife's 30 year old grandma car has enough oomph to help a truck and camper get unstuck from mud. That's gotta be at least 901lbs.
Ive seen a kei truck haul one without any struggles.
Hey, that's not exactly a fair comparison. You can't really compare a truck specifically designed to haul things against whatever the fuck Elon designed.
How does he think that it is a flex? Hay is a relatively light material. The real challenge would be a metal container containing a liquid substance a la multiple beer kegs. My dad's old Nissan Frontier once held multiple loads (heh) of paint and pulled a trailer full of cement packages without a hitch.
How did you attach the trailer without a hitch?
Carefully
You mean you don’t push trailers?
Yall don't have bluetooth trailers yet? Must be a canada thing.
sit on the back and hold on very very tightly
personally I use chains, but some prefer ropes or sticks.
Round hay bale isn't heavy, lol
I can't tell whether you're agreeing or disagreeing with the comment you're responding to. This appears to be a bale with a 4 foot width, and a 4 foot diameter, based on the cybertruck's bed dimensions. That's probably under half a ton. Still "heavy" (I can't pick one up), but even the cybertruck is capable of hauling far more weight than that.
It's a round bale. They aren't that heavy a few hundred lbs 🤷♂️. I can easily flip them over when they tip on their side . I live on a farm the cows kick them around like soccer balls if I put a whole one in their pen. Typical cro mag weak dick thinking.
Those ones though are heavy. Literally compressed to save space.
Hah, the .straw archiving format. While the square ones are .strawz
I have owned a round baler and made 1000's of them over the years, mine weighted around 800lbs/365kg for straw and up to 1000lbs/450kg for alfalfa per bale. Cows ain't kicking 1000lbs of alfalfa around nor should they. What a waste of feed and money.
But, one in the truck and towing 9 more on the trailer with a 2015 Dodge Ram Hemi around 30 miles per load......Fooken' amateurs.
We cut mixed grasses for "hay" . Some of the bales at the bottom that are from the last year we roll into their sleeping area for bedding and they go crazy and stomp them all over the place. Cows are scary powerful
And there's pictures on the internet of bumpers/hitches falling off of cybertrucks....
Wasn't it just yesterday that another cyberfarmer destroyed his air suspension with one hay bale?
was just thinking of that. IIRC the vents for the air suspension are in the bed, so hay can be sucked in, cloging the system.
Yeah, it’s also a fire hazard because it blocks the water drain on the bed lol
I hope so
LMAO leave it to people who drive swasitcars to think that their short bed was actually the biggest bed in the world lolol
That paint job looks like some crap 'limited edition' skin in a chance-box mil-sim shooter. Bad enough to fall for that crap in a game, but in real life? Lame.
some people like the look of uncommon skins, I don't necessarily agree, but at least it isn't a common.
Therein lies the issue. What is the point of a truck if it can’t haul? At that point, buy the car.
And not a SUV. Nobody needs those a normal car. Normal being European or japanese size
I drive plug in hybrid van because I have kids and dogs. Only time I ever use gas is when visiting my mom 1.5H away. Otherwise I am 99% using electric from my solar system. I wish apartment people had my ways to use electric but that might never happen or might take 50 years.
Whatever happened to station wagons?
Sorry to break it to you ... waay to many europeans are turning to SUVs. Turds of things that are bigger on the outside and smaller on the inside than our old estates (wagons) and hatchbacks.
There is interior hauling. The Prius V had 6ft of back space such that you could fit an entire washer or dryer in there. It could accommodate small batches of lumber and was an option for car camping as it would fit a six foot bed and came with a battery that could be tapped for electronics like CPAPs and laptops. The Prius V was a discount option for the van life crowd back when that was a popular thing.
Effective interior hauling can also happen in minivans with the seats pulled and some SUVs.
even in areas with reasonable amounts of snow cars can do a pretty decent job (as long as you have studded tires and not a stupid sports car with <4" clearance) when compared to SUVs or trucks with summer tires.
I mean, my truck has a similar sized bed and I love it. I don't need a small-penis-mobile just to haul some lumber or move some furniture a few times a year.
It's basically just a small SUV they threw a bed on, and it's great. I can average 38mpg highway if I drive it right, too.
My 1st gen tundra does this with no issue, and I paid $1800 for it lol
That nasty roll is like 900lbs, most 4 banger trucks can handle that load
That looks like a 4x4 bale my guess is ~ 500lbs. They do make larger but they wouldn't fit in that shitbox.
True that doesn't look like it was rolled super tight. The 4x4s we used to buy were around 800-900lbs as our hay guy actually knew what he was doing. Now we get 4x5s and they're around 1100lbs and my tundra still can handle them no problem when I am lazy and don't want to drive one out with the tractor.
Actually, Cybercock is using cast aluminium frame which is nowhere near as strong as steel frame used in ALL other pickups.
But aluminum is lighter AND stronger to help this 6600lb+ truck be fast and agile! A guy i paid to tell me I'm right made a graph which shows aluminum number is bigger! Those other truck manufacturers that have thousands of years of collective engineering experience are fools next to my brilliance.
He wasnt kidding when he said its straight from the cyberpunk genre. Pretty junk designed to fall apart sold by a corpo that doesn't care.
It's basic metallurgy knowledge that cast aluminium is prone to fatigue cracks way faster than forged steel. In fact all cast metals tend to be more brittle.
Extruded aluminium you can often bend back and forth quite few times before it snaps. Cast aluminium will just start to crumble at the bend.
Like the vending machine guns. Literally shoot then throw it away, they're not designed to be reloaded. Shame they tend to expect more quality from a 100k truck.
Poe's law strikes again. OOOP has to be joking right? I mean it's not like they're loading up that hay to take back to their apartment in the city. Anyone who's in a position to be moving a bale of hay around, will have used a regular truck before and will have seen hay.
Damn that bottom truck is sexy. The cybertruck looking like a car prototype makes shit from the 60s look futuristic.
80s Silverados are the smexiest. Also Camaros.
Originally I thought they were just shitty trucks because I had thought they were the size of a Ford Fiesta until I saw one IRL. Most pictures and videos I had seen of them had nothing next to them to show the true scale.
I'd love a truck the size of a Ford fiesta. Can't wait till the telo truck comes out next year.
The Ford Mavericks and the Hyundai Santa Cruz will get you close (but def. not fiesta dimensions). Drove an F-150 for years. I'd do a proper "ute" if they were available but there are finally some tiny "pickups" out there. There's tradeoffs, and I miss my F-150 for a lot, but not enough.
looking forward to the telo as well, finally something that's compact like my old element but still can haul some plywood
Should've been called Cybarelyatruck
I'm embarrassed by how long this took me to parse out
the hay in the op made my brain read barely as barley
Roboute?
That's probably insulting to utes, though.
That's not the load in the rear they were bragging about, no shame just a strange brag.
I thought that was a boulder at first and was begrudgingly impressed. Then I saw the second picture....
