Aside from the fact that you'd be funding the nazis, it's so fucking ugly...

Beauty is subjective. Nazis are not.
Beauty may be subjective, but a very small number of subjects find the Cybertruck to be beautiful.
"Technically" bulletproof (in that some parts can't have holes poked through them by bullets), can't drive through sand or mud.
Very apocalypse-proof.
At least they didn't try shooting through the bulletproof windows. They woulda killed the driver.
From what I saw on a YouTube channel that tested the cyber truck. It can take anything up to a 22. Beyond that you’re screwed
Don't waste it on the car and use it on the nazi driving the car (but first, verify that they are, indeed, a nazi, some might have gotten it before the elon's nazi reveal)
Nobody bought a Cybertruck before Elon showed his true colours. They might have gotten a Tesla though
People reserved them years ago
checks for the "I bought this before I knew Elon was a piece of shit" bumper sticker
Yeah, if they're merely morons you gotta just throw em a thumbs down
Check for the items of clothing worn by the occupants when they exit the vehicle.
If no Maga merch, its unconfirmed so you'll have to hold the fire.
If Maga shirt or Hat is seen... BINGO TIME 😎
Obligatory... The Cyber truck is not rated as bullet proof. This footage was most likely produced with cartridges that have just enough gun powder to cycle the gun's action. Actual bulletproof vehicles are way more expensive.
Didnt Aiden Ross shoot his with a 9mm? Like hes a dumbass but he actually gave good data on that one.
I’ve seen others do the same tests and anything above a 22. Goes right through
This footage was most likely produced with cartridges that have just enough gun powder to cycle the gun’s action.
Frankly, it's probably not even that much. They probably used a bolt action and really light powder loads. I'd say maybe it's a .22 but the dents look big for that.
Edit: Someone else posted this a JerryRigEverything video- it apparently stops .22 and 9mm. I'm pretty surprised.
Looking it up, the doors are 1.8mm steel. At a 90 degree angle that's enough to stop underpowered 9mm rounds reliably. It will stop most normal rounds fired at it, and especially start letting a lot through in areas with repeated stress. The second you hot load a round, use a heavy projectile or any kind of round with more potential than standard FMJ it's all going through.
And that has to be the right kind of steel too. Which is more expensive. So yeah I'm pretty sure they used underpowered rounds at the very least to create this visual.
Pellet gun dude
Good enough to run over all the liberal protestors!

"Competinion" in the EU are shitting themselves laughing at this joke of a vehicle.
There is no "competition" in the EU because this deathtrap isn't allowed on many of the roads here.
Even us in America. This is a joke of a car made by a joke of a person.
Why the fuck would 99% of people need to think about bullets hitting their car?
Sneezes in American.
Sadly, it is not bulletproof enough to save black Americans from a hail of police bullets.
do they sneeze bullets in America? wouldn't be surprised
When in America...

Probably an airgun and not a very powerful one.
Even if not, I doubt competitors are "shitting their pants" over this. Can't say the bulletproofness rating topped the list of features I was looking for in my next car purchase

according to some dude with a lots of guns, youtube channel and a cybertruck it will stop 9x19mm and .22 LR, but not .17 HMR, .223/5.56x45mm, or presumably anything bigger. .17 HMR will stop in doors, but will go through external plate
anyway this is movie plot scenario relevant only to edgelords. maybe it'll be easier to avoid being shot at by not being in a car associated with shitheads
Places that have metal protecting you (legs), places not bullet proof, head and chest.
Doesn't sound that useful. Also the bridge I currently take to go to work as the main bridge is closed for updating for the next few months only supports 3 tons. So a cyber truck couldn't get to my residence without taking a 7 mile detour each way.
(Not that I was ever considering one nor could afford one)
Edit to also add fun fact for those that maybe didn't understand the size of a .22lr or a .223 listed above. .223 is also known as 5.56 NATO. though they sound similar in size, a .223 round has 10x the energy of a .22 (they are much larger and travel much faster)

At this point, do any companies seriously see the cybertruck as “competition”?
Nobody wants to replicate or compete against the Cybertruck directly, but it is the first production car to implement several key technologies like steer by wire a 48v low voltage system rather than traditional 12v one. Tesla has had a lot longer to develop these than the competition, but ultimately Elon's stupid design and love affair with Trump mean Tesla won't succeed commercially from these innovations.
Yes. These selling assault rifles and inflatable dolls. Cash is limited.
Actually, that damage happened because I'm allergic to bullshit and I sneezed on it.
The sheer speed of winds coming out of your nose is quite a environmental disaster.
So I've been told.
it’d be a neat idea if cars actually regularly had to interact with projectiles! y’know what cars DO have to interact ALL THE TIME?
water.
In fact, when they do interact with other projectiles, those projectiles are other cars. But I guess no one knew crumple zones could be so complicated.
