      That isn't even head canon. That's just real. Tesla's designers apparently thought the thing was hideous and proposed alternative designs but were overruled. Although I doubt Elon drew the original concept himself. He probably said, "Make me a Warthog from Halo."

    We have a Cybertruck at my work and the thing is absolutely goofy in and out. The stainless steel sheets that make up the exterior show literally ALL HANDPRINTS, the plastic is thin and flimsy and EVERYTHING is controlled through a series of small menus on the tablet screen, including windshield wipers. The on-screen buttons aren't color coated or bordered either, so you can't just use your peripheral vision to turn on the wipers (and again it requires navigating multiple menus, so it's not just one single button press). This IMO is extremely dangerous considering we're supposed to be discouraging people from looking at screens away from the road for longer than a fraction of a second. Also the door latches came loose just from opening/closing the door from normal use and had to be screwed back in.

      Apparently Musk's big vision for this was his son saying "What doesn't the future look like the future?", and apparently that inspired him to want to make the present look like the 1980s' idea of the future. And he just kept repeating this to his engineers and designers over and over again whenever they said "This car is awful and no one will want to buy it.
      But tbh the least plausible part of that story is one of Elon Musk's children talking to him.

    Something to note about the impacting testing at 13:38, those nice 1950s cars with the tail fins that people like to restore? They're also horrible for the people inside the car in a collision because the metal does crumble and all the momentum and kinetic energy is transferred to the people inside. Our modern cars today can look horrible and crumpled after a collision but people walk away without little to no injury all of the time because they are now designed to transfer as much of that kinetic energy to the car rather than the passenger.

      yeah back in the 2000s my friend had an old car his grandma gave him that didn't have crumple zones. We got into an accident where a couple cars behind is piled up and rear ended us. both of their cars were totaled. my friend barely had a dent in it. we were on a decline so we were thrown forward and I hit my head on the roof. The car was totally fine but I realized if we'd been in a real major collision I'd probably have had a concussion or damaged my neck.

    • @tohrurikku
      @tohrurikku 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +35

      Was forced to watch a doc on the dangers of old cars, and the non-crumpling is not the worst of the dangers, for example; the nobs, the steering wheel, and if your head went through the windshield it is possible you would be decapitated. I see similar dangers with this new truck. There are so many sharp edges, and things that can seriously hurt you if impact with them. I really do not know how it passed the safety tests enough to be allowed on the road.

      Yeah, the guy at 14:06 "showing a more fair comparison" and saying they look the same didn't really look that hard. The cybertruck crumpled yeah, that will happen when anything hits a wall, but the other truck bent and redistributed the momentum to the bed as well. The cybertruck was rigid and left all of it to be applied to the passengers and anything else not directly connected to the stiff frame, like the wheels and axle.
      Also you can see the F150's bend allows the passengers to decelerate over a longer distance by going overtop of the front of the truck while the cybertruck's passengers stop almost immediately.

    Fun random fact I learned today. Guardrails and other safety devices for the freewaysin CA are not yet tested on cars as heavy as the cybertruck (the highest for cars being a 5000lb truck), so if one is crashed into a guard rail it might not function as it's supposed too.
    That's like always something to keep in mind when your car is 'different' from the others on the road (ie hight and weight) because Important road safety functions caltrans uses are all based on the tests they do.

      @Marleys2775 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @Dbk416 Good point! Semis are also not usually tested on most safety devices because it's expensive and most areas dont have a high enough truck trafffic or accidents that would warrant those stronger barriers (usually they'll put stuff rated for semis in front of bridge columns if really needed. Cyber trucks aren't the main issue. I was mostly just pointout that cars that deviated from the standard aren't really the ones being tested on safety devices and the cyber truck is pretty nonstandard even compared to other passanger trucks in its shape, weight, and center of gravity.
      It is kind of outdated that they don't test heavier passenger cars since EVs in general are significantly heavier than combustion engine cars.

We really need to start pushing this towards the DOT to figure out better safety measures.

      Ok, that surprised me, because here in europe guardrails for roads are tested with busses and big trucks usually, because it's what others need to be protected from. (and who needs protection from harm themselves too) Sure there's always a scenario they couldn't test or didn't come up with, so there's never 100% safety, but what logic is it that you don't test for the heaviest vehicles on the road. (And due to them making up the professional traffic and doing the highest mileages on roads they also have a higher probability over all to make contact with them/have an accident)

And the galaxy brain idea of how to stop your drivers dying at a 8x rate isn't to remove the autodrive feature, it's to make a small tank. Such weird behavious.
    Wrapping it might make the corrosion worse, Stainless resists rust because of the oxide coating that forms on it's surface, if rust penetrates that it can rust very very quickly, especially if there are salts involved, like the stuff we put on roads in icy conditions. Wrapping it reduces the surface oxygen availability and means scratches may not form a new oxide coating as quickly and in turn makes it more likely that rust will penetrate and it'll rust from the inside out. It'll be difficult to guess whether a wrap will work or not in real world conditions, but it wouldn't surprise me if in a year or 2 we see a couple stories of bodywork falling off wrapped cybertrucks.

    4:25 longtime game lover here, can confirm it looks like placeholder geometry that a developer might use while still building a game.
    When developing a 3D experience, theres a few parts to every object in the game. First is its base polygons, the rough approximation of the object onto which all other parts will be fitted. Next is the collision properties, i.e what happens when the object is touched by another object. Defining collision creates a Hit Box, where everything inside the box triggers collision, and everything outside that box does not. FINALLY, after it MECHANICALLY works, the dev finishes the object with a Skin / Texture, which is a 2D image that wraps around the polygons to create the Finished Asset.
    Cars in the polygon phase look almost exactly like the cybertruck, it's uncanny.

      The delorean did it right, it had a style and coolness factor that the cybertruck couldn’t replicate because having style seemed to not be a priority at all, which completely baffles me

Barely 2 years later and DVDs became obsolete.

    I was lucky to see one of these bad boys in person and I lost my mind,,the feral excitement I had over seeing it. I saw it go past me in a downtown area and when we got on the interstate it appeared again and I was able to gaze upon its low-poly unrendered video-game graphic beauty again. And farther down we passed by a car dealership aND YOU KNOW WHAT WAS IN THE LOT!?!? ANOTHER FREAKING CYBER TRUCK BABY. Seeing those felt like running into a shiny Pokémon or winning the lottery it was low-key the highlight of my day.

    People who actually need a work truck for work truck reasons and want an EV are probably just buying the Electric Ford Ranger and calling it a day.

      I can’t imagine anyone who needs a work truck owning a purely EV one. I used my old Suburban to haul furniture wood occasionally and sometimes woodworking equipment and… I needed the weight capacity and the range and I don’t think that even for that level of use an EV version would have been practical. For a real work truck, hell no.

Also there's no way that it gets 300 mile range while towing 11,000 pounds, I want to see how far it goes while towing a maximum load. I'm waiting for my first sighting in the wild!

    my big concern is if it's bullet proof, so really strong, will it be able to crumple like other cars in crashes? crumpling is a massively necessary safety feature and significantly reduces the risk of fatality if you crash, so if it's too solid to crumple it could be really bad

  • @fanoftoast

    I feel like the cyber truck has been such a journey. When it first was talked about I don’t think any other electric trucks even existed for sale in the states. I remember watching TH-camr Simone Guerra make her “Truckla” where she converted a Tesla into a truck and that was the first electric functional “truck” I ever saw (not that I saw it in person, but still). Now it’s been YEARS of waiting for cybertrucks and other companies, Ford, Rivian and likely others, have released electric trucks and it doesn’t seem so insane anymore. I personally love the cybertruck look but could never afford one or have any use for one and am all about my car lasting in multiple environments and being able to handle all weather conditions, so its sad to hear the paintless exterior is basically useless. Maybe paintless cars like this only appeal to us weird patina car people but I thought it was neat.
    It’s just so crazy that when we first heard about the concept of these, Elon Musk didn’t own twitter and was pretty tolerated online and now so much has changed and so many people are just over it and angry at him (totally justifiable). I feel like he’s made so many decisions for Tesla that many people prob don’t want Tesla innovations just cause it still feels tied to him.

    A real wrap made by a real wrapping place might help a bit. But you really should paint or put laquer on exposed steel.

    A lot of manufactures started adding those clauses to new specialized cars because people have been buying flipping them. Most people found a loophole where they can draw up a 12 month lease agreement to where they buy the truck for a $1 a the end. I think that is why they removed the clause.
