I hadn't seen one since I moved far to the northeast, and I was starting to hope I never would have to see one.

Until I did.

They are clownishly clunky looking and are look several sizes larger than they should be, which defeats the purpose of being an electric vehicle to begin with because of all the extra energy needed to drag that shitbox around.

I then saw a second ZYBERTRUKKK a few minutes later.

🎵I can open your eyes

Take you wonder by wonder

Over, sideways and under

On a magic carpet ride🎵

In the face of relentless ridicule, CyberTruck owners are so intent on proving they can haul things that they're going out of their way to find opportunities to haul things, and in the process they're demonstrating that they do not know how to haul things, inviting more ridicule.

I’ve seen a couple advertising roofing, one advertising a dentistry, one advertising solar panels. Employees probably haven’r gotten a raise in years. Really genius brains in charge of society.

Pulling up behind a Cybertruck and a DeLorean has truly been the double rainbow of my day.

I kinda want one with a modern snowmobile engine

Back in February we paid to get new tires on the car. One of them has been leaky for the last couple of months, something I've continually been putting in the "I'll deal with it later" pile as topping up the air once a week was easier and cheaper than dealing with it.

Now the damn tire is flat. The roadside repair guy said that the tire was soft and decayed. I'm 75% sure that a new tire is not supposed to do that so soon.

Now I'm wondering if the mechanic put on old tires or if I've been an idiot by not getting the tie fixed in time and the frequent deflation/inflation cycles has ruined the thing.

Edit: Fucking hell! The code on the tire says it's from 2007! What the fuck? The damn car went through inspection and everything with that antique on.

Sharing because this is so much fun to watch. They straight up talk about the effect of EVs and public transport on urban noise pollution. They discuss how if people from western countries understood the extent of Chinese advancement, they'd be upset at their own governments.

At one point he dispels claims about subsidization and says how they're 10x less than American EV subsidies. They start flashing dozens of articles about American economic protectionism.

The reason he's doing this is because he's going into business with a Hybrid EV trucking startup and they're visiting to find parts that can't be found in the US.
