It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Guys I had my Truck for less than 350 miles. something happened i cant explain... I was driving like usual and when coming into a turn releasing the accelerator but the speed wasnt reducing... so i pressed the brake... but it didnt engage.... until it was too late and i hit a signal light pole, also airbags didnt deploy.

Here are some pics of damage

[the front bumper, bonnet, and driver side panels are fucked. The driver remains the crumple zone]

Regen was working but it was limited it was different than before ( Iโ€™m doing a bad job of explaining), hence the application of brakes which also had a delayed feeling. Iโ€™m glad to be uninjured ๐Ÿ™

Feeling a bit sore

Still love the truck though.

The comments seem to mostly be attacking him for having a new account. The shill is spreading FUD, not warning them that the brakes and airbags can spontaneously fail in a turn.

Had no idea this forum even existed lmao. Absolutely bizarre to scroll through it and every other post is like "The Cybertruck killed my family and sliced my ankles and also the employees spit in my eye when they delivered it," inevitably followed by comments along the lines of, "Aw man, I'm still waiting for mine. Lucky!"

Brain rot.

It's one of my favourite forums. There's a whole genre of posts where the cyberwagon cuts someone and they blame themselves while praising it: (CW: blood) https://www.cybertruckownersclub.com/forum/threads/delivered-but-wrist-cut-injury-during-delivery-er-visit.17610/

We are getting closer and closer to scythed wheels, aren't we?

I am so thankful for the relentless cost engineering that made this vehicle objectively horrible. It pushed all my vector-graphics nostalgia buttons and I was in love with the stupid pointy truck the moment it was revealed. If it had been even a little less shitty, I probably would be saving for a down payment. But, no, they really went and scraped the bottom of the barrel, and just kept scraping.
