Someone is going to try to cross a lake, lose their CT, and possibly get really hurt.

When they sue, Elon will say: “ChatGPT deep faked me. I never said that.”
I'm going to start using that excuse. It's nearly bulletproof... like the CT's glass

Some more pictures.

Does the wiper go through the glass? The entire bed area looks poorly put together.

Hahahaha, holy smokes, it just looks so cheap and plasticky, poorly assembled, I'm surprised there's not glue all over the glass like a model kit assembled by an 8 year old.

"Designed by aliens ..."

Sure, if the aliens are fucking dimwits.

This does not look secure:

Every time I start to ponder how absolutely ridiculous it is that Rivian can't even answer basic questions about the manual tonneau cover, Tesla does something like this to provide some perspective.

Hahaha, this theme in the comments is f***ing gold :

" It’s like when im looking at a car from a distance in a videogame but it’s like barely fucking rendered."

"Meanwhile - Rivian, F150 lightning - Both that don’t look like low-poly versions of a truck from tomb raiders original game debut."

:CWL:

Seems like the energy density from 4680 cells aren’t up to par. Troy Teslike doesn’t think a long range CT is near. Troy is pretty objective and analytical:

Anything is possible when you fill the battery cells with Elon‘s promises.

ICE only :(
The energy density on the 4680 cells is only marginally higher than their current cells. They used numbers that suggested it's much higher, but they were very crafty about not ever noting that the total energy stored is barely more than the extra volume of the cell format.

Truck looks good. Just waiting on the rerelease of the specs. Quad motor and 400 mile range for 90k possible? Gonna feel weird trading in my Rivian for it if the specs are good.
There isn’t a single thing that looks remotely “good” on that turd.

Another reason not to buy one just occurred to me:
Everyone testing the windows with rocks. Might be nearly impossible to come back from Lowes without broken windows.
