He just can't help himself... :crying:

How about just producing the actual vehicle, that would be a miracle unto itself at this point. Finalize the damn design and build them rather than this continuous tweaking and redesigning it over and over and over based on whichever way the wind blew on Elon each morning.

For it to sink on it's maiden voyage.
No it will be fine. I won’t cross the Pacific.
As someone pointed out on the CT forum most cars float already. The advantage of an EV is the layout of the battery pack. Better balance

The key word is “briefly”…

And the unspecified “briefly” period ends as soon as she goes down.
He mentioned seas that aren’t too choppy

I wonder if they'll go and retrofit this to the existing CyberTrucks

A '72 Buick is "waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat" … the Titanic was waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat.
The stuff that Musk will say … and somehow … Tesla devotees just can't get enough of it.
I look at the R1T and lament that it has paint instead of raw stainless steel bodywork … and why can't I hit it with a sledgehammer?! … why can't I throw a rock at the windows? … why?!

I literally cannot wait to see them test this “feature” out in public for the first time. This guy was born with both feet in his mouth and his head up his ass.

Sooo you are telling me your windows are shatterproof (or unbreakable) and that your car will act "briefly as a boat".

Should we just start calling it the cybercoffin now?
