"they told me to come back immediately...they fixed it...they did a temp fix on my accelerator pedal. the problem was it was sliding up, so the rivet isn't where it should be -- the pedal's too high. so they knocked it down, they punched a hole in it, another hole, there is the original hole in the bottom, they're going to order me a new part and fix it. whatever. i'm just happy they did right by me."
so the jig is up?

as I’ve said. the only way we’re allowed to “fight climate change” is massively subsidize his lovely companies and idiotic boondoggles like self driving. anything else is judeo-bolshevism

like at least 80% of the pedal jobs we've seen itt have been like that. idk if that's just because we're seeing particularly shoddy work due to the thread's nature or if the majority of them are being done wrong, but my money would be on the latter

i really wonder at what point they're just banned from the roads entirely. seems like never, but maybe if a few people die first they might get around to it in like 12 years

Probably never? The Model 3 has beat the Ford Pinto for killing people in inescapable fires, but nobody seems to give a gently caress.

my favorite part of that video is him getting owned by drive through workers not once, but twice.

and they were both right! It is not really bulletproof. It just stops .45 and subsonic 9mm, which no one actually uses!

it also offers protection from Soros funded Antifa hitsquads using 9mm subguns with silencers (the only use case for subsonic 9mm, which is both more expensive and less powerful than regular 9mm).

lol @ another little detail in that cybertruck guy video: his tailgate got stuck down, and the rear camera is in the tailgate, so it became useless because it was just pointing at the ground.

"i had to use that rear view mirror" he says. good thing it has such good sightlines!!!!!

This is mind-blowing considering hauling stuff with the tailgate down is a standard truck use case.

I thought it was well accepted fact that nobody is ever going to haul anything with the cybertruck unless they're making youtube/tiktok content

I've always wanted to see someone do that with something more realistically finger-ish... like say a chicken wing. I honestly think it probably has enough force to break bones and maybe even sever flesh.

we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.

whoever could have foreseen this?

no one, probably.

certainly not any of the regular posters in this shitposting thread between the years 2018 and 2024. it was not so incredibly obvious that the kind of schlub who racks up a post count itt could have called it six loving years ago.

You could probably offset it a little by going up to 147gr, but it won’t matter because far-left terrorist groups could put EFPs on bicycles as far back as 1989.
