I love that he is advertising that the cybertruck can float, yet his cars have panel gaps wide enough to stick your hand in.

Yeah... Trusting a guy who doesn't know how to fix panel gaps with making something watertight is a great idea. Can't wait for the dumdums to sink their Cyberyuck ™ in the inevitably very bad decision of taking that monstrosity into a lake because Elon said they could....

Will FSD include nautical routes?

Don't try flooding it once the purchaser realizes how ugly it is.

Anything is a boat...if you are dumb enough.

While I appreciate his efforts to keep the Coast Guard busy and relevant, we have enough "naturally sourced" problems right now.

Elon is testing it as a pre-prototype for the CyberCat. His next conquest is beating Larry Ellison in the World Cup.

He said the same thing about previous vehicles, I think it S and X? Not sure how that turned out.

Back in 2016:

It was the S. He said it in a little more sensible way back then.

A '72 Buick is "waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat" …
As a former owner of a '72 Buick, she definitely was a boat:

Sold her on eBay around 15 years ago. New owner shipped her to Germany and did a full frame-off restoration. I like to think she's still cruising the Autobahn. 😊
