Cybertrucks aren't designed to be driven and they should never get wet. Otherwise, enjoy.

Also remember not to charge them after midnight.

According to that diagram, the dog is in the trunk.

The trunk has more headroom.

(There was a time when kids sat in the trunk of cars like this)

Bring back trunk kids

At least where I live that's where people usually put their dogs. With sedans and SUVs it's not as cramped though and often there's a transport cage for them.

also remember to never tow with it so your frame doesn't snap in half

oh yeah. check WhistlinDiesel's video link @

frame snapped when he tried towing an f series pickup

in a later video he made sure to beat on the f series, and while the frame did bend, it wasn't a sudden catastrophic failure

a quick summary from some website

The F-150's steel frame didn't break, but bent under extreme abuse - unlike the Cybertruck's catastrophic failure. The Cybertruck's aluminum frame is unfixable after being torn apart - unlike the F-150 which can be repaired or replaced easily. Despite the haters, WhistlinDiesel's extreme testing proved the F-150's durability, while the Cybertruck suffered irreparable damage

Credit where it's due, the Cybertruck took an absurd fucking beating before it died, and its clearly quite safe from outside intrusion to a pretty extreme degree. That frame snapping was kinda insane though, I can't really put into words just how much that shouldn't be possible.

And in a later video, he showed a photo and chat with a viewer. They saw someone's Cyertruck's frame snap off while hauling a trailer which hit a bump on the highway and sent the pic in.

yeah in his next video the f150 took so much more, and the frame only bent

This reminds me of the stickers that come on some Walmart-level "mountain bikes."

I have an inflatable garden toy - a set of 2 pigs to play a jumbo version of Pass the Pigs. There is a warning on the inflatable toys:

"This is not an inflatable toy."

So I wouldn't ve surprised if Cyber Truck had some similar warning. "This is not a car. Do not allow it to get wet."
