Tesla Cybertruck

It reminded me of the vehicles in Thunderbirds (only those of a certain age will understand)

It's been designed completely in Minecraft. A few missiles and it'll be ready for Mad Max vs the Terminator: the Rematch.

And yes, with those edges it'll rip the guts out of any pedestrian it hits. It's a good job nobody in America walks anywhere, then.

Just one little issue. Anybody know where I can recharge this thing out here in rattlesnake country?

I'd imagine at any nearby MacDonalds perhaps...?

More evidence that Musk has lost it.

To me it looks like a prototype mock-up. Before the sharp edges are rounded off.

The flat plate design significantly reduces the manufacturing complexity and the SS plate removes the need for layers of paint.

That's what De Lorean said. It was left to their owners to discover how much polishing the bloody things needed, because of the greasy dabs from human fingers. I saw one recently, and the doors were a complete mess.

And don't think you can improve the look by polishing with a mild scouring paste or rubbing compound. It cuts right through the oxidation layer, which is the only thing that stands between your stainless steel and even faster discolouration. Get a dent or a localised scratch, and your car will look weird forever afterwards, no matter how carefully you fix it.

Still, I don't suppose Musk's rufty-tufty weekend ranch riders will mind that happening to their $99,000 trucks? Excuse me while I laugh.

Yip, it's called a free market. Almost as practical as this at £3 million.

Apparently the cyber trucks automatic closing stainless steel boot can chop carrots. And fingers, presumably

It does appear to be bullet proof, literally, at least in some calibres.

Indeed not, given that one of them just paid $60k over list.
And this auction was amongst the highest view counts on BaT, plus plenty of comments.

And if you don't want to polish it, you can get a wrap.

Good job, I can quite understand someone shooting at it

Great car for the zombie apocalypse...if you can find a live charger.

With those angles, there is a good chance that it could evade detection by radar speed cameras.
