How Musk is not in jail for false advertising is beyond me. Everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie. What about boating? He claimed Cybertruck can be used as a boat. Stupid considering the damn thing has trouble getting up the driveway on a snowy day.

To be fair, most boats can't do that either. Maybe it's better as a boat.

There's redundant air lines and valves in the wheel arches which are connected to the already existing internal tyre inflation system.
I'm not a musk sympathiser, in fact I massively dislike him. I'm just telling you that this thing is designed to float eventually with some external floats.
They did it with the M551 Sheridan and that's 15000kg
I mean, any car will float with external floats
Yes, any train or plane would do that too. Your comment doesn't make must worng.
My point it already has the hardware and capability to theoretically inflate and deflate those hypothetical external floats by itself.
I'm just pointing out musk probably at least did have a plan for the boat thing although who fucking knows what (if any) will actually come of it
Oh, I see what you're saying. I didn't make the connection between air lines for the tires and external floats
It will never work that way. I'm also highly doubtful in the range extender materializing.

and that shitty capacity is only going to decrease throughout the life of those batteries.
🤦🏻♂️People are so gullible.
Here are some links that further elaborate on why, more than any other car company, you shouldn’t trust Tesla’s estimates: https://www.theverge.com/2023/10/23/23928563/tesla-doj-ev-range-exaggerate-investigation

The cybertruck isn't going to sell in significant volumes. As far as I can tell, it's a halo car and an exercise in marketing.
I'd feel sorry for people who bought it, if I didn't know how much they'd paid for one.
junk
Oh well.
They were warned.
