Doesn't the y have the back seats that will absolutely break your neck in a collision because of a bar there? Like the thing is only able to fit small children and anyone else is basically stuffed in and liable to die

You guys misunderstand. Cybertruck is not intended to be an actual truck. It's a lifestyle statement. Only the truly hip can understand and appreciate it.

I thought I was going crazy with how many people are clowning on that pic. Bicycles aren't very compatible with beds no matter what, they are awkward shaped through and through, hanging the wheel over the back is very convenient.

It’s still a little funny that a midsize car with a hatch can fit a bike, and these trucks can’t.

I would not put children in any vehicle which has electrically actuated door latches which may become inoperable in an emergency, so is there anyone who can sit safely in the third row?

If you define "safely" as "maximizing desired survival outcome" then maybe people you don't like?

Little people maybe. They’d avoid decapitation, but the door situation still isn’t great.

The cybertruck looks like something someone built in their shed (constantly changing their minds about the design) over the last 15 years, infuriating their wife and spending way too much money on it leading to the inevitable divorce.

 AISS 2023: This Wednesday 11/22 is the last day to sign up! Did you catch a joke probation, make a super embarrassing post complaining about it, and need some holiday cheer to get you back in the shitposting spirit? Then sign up for Automotive Insanity's Secret Santa! Some goon will send you a random assortment of items, mostly some broken car parts, and there is an option for penis-emblazonment. I have enjoyed it so much over the years that I volunteered to pick up the mantle from slothrop and organize it for 2023. So come on down and spread the holiday

People that willingly do that on public roads need to have their drivers license table away forever. That said, I could see why a bucks-down person would risk it. Tow services are some predatory motherfuckers.

Counterpoint, the USAA-contracted tow company once tried to convince me to drive my FiST 10 miles to the mechanic after getting into a head-on collision. (It was in a parking lot and not bad, but gently caress if I was driving my car after that. The mechanic was horrified that they pressured me to drive it.)

UCS Hellmaker posted:Bp at some stations has the pumps switched, everywhere else it's green for diesel, seen a few bps where gasoline was green and black was diesel, all on the same pump. Almost hosed my wife's car up because of it before but caught it because the nozzle is bigger. I think there's some sort of EU standard where gasoline is green handle, diesel is black, E85 is usually blue. When leaded gas still existed it had a red handle.
