I mean who in their right mind could have called this? Crazy!
Tesla Cybertruck sales are disastrous
Tesla confirmed that Cybertruck sales are disastrous in the release of its quarterly results. Sales of the controversial electric pickup...electrek.co
Like all things there is a price that this thing will sell like hot cakes, probably around 40k, but there is also the fact that while the S3XY Teslas could be bought on merit, this one oozes Musk ugliness and it's too much of a polarized item to take such a huge financial gamble. It will be unique and always get attention, but not the good type. It will always be the physical form of an autistic dream.
Durability test #2!
I'm surprised the service centre was even willing to touch it lol.
That whole episode is stream of intrusive thoughts lol
He needs to do a Dukes of Hazzard TV show...that was the most entertaining video I've seen all year hahaha
People enjoy--or sometimes outraged--by him destroying things.If someone does it it would be him. Call it the General Electric. (and probably get sued by GE lol)
He's also working on a killdozer replica, I'm sure there will be an episode soon. I wonder where he gets all his money to do these crazy things. Living the life that's for sure!

Did this guy just fly in from stupid town when it comes to clearing snow off a vehicle? Using wipers to try and take that much snow off a windshield is just moronic.
It usually doesn't work but it also usually doesn't break the wiper.Did this guy just fly in from stupid town when it comes to clearing snow off a vehicle? Using wipers to try and take that much snow off a windshield is just moronic.
The only time I ever see snow is if I leave SoCal. So I don't even understand what happened here.Did this guy just fly in from stupid town when it comes to clearing snow off a vehicle? Using wipers to try and take that much snow off a windshield is just moronic.

The rubber wiper blade was torn from the arm by heavy snow? Which to me is weird because last time I bought these ACDelco blades that use the standard hook-on style. The problem is they just wouldn't hook-off, and I'm no bodybuilder. My mechanic safely ripped the blades off the arms, but I wasn't comfortably brute forcing it. Never buying ACDelco wiper blades again.
We can see that's a lot of snow, but that blade seemed to fall right off so easily...
I'm just surprised how easily the blade fell off with one pass, but I guess what happened is the rubber was shorn off of the plastic frame. In turn, this entire replaceable "wiper blade" is attached to the arm (katana). (Not that you don't know, I'm just "typing out loud.")A single blade was never going to work for such big surface area. The blade came off, at least the actual wiper survived.
Add a zero maybe. If the blade didn't come off, the actual wiper would probably have sheared off.I'm just surprised how easily the blade fell off with one pass, but I guess what happened is the rubber was shorn off of the plastic frame.

If the rubber didn't get pulled off so easily, who knows if he could have cleared out some of the snow after several passes. 🤣
But I get what you guys are saying, the rubber isn't designed to clear thick snow and only a maroon would try. I'm also morbidly curious how much the Tesla service center wants for a replacement blade. $60?
I'm conflicted on this. I kind of enjoy seeing idiots pay out more money on their white elephants, but it annoys the shit out of me the money's going to Muskrat.I'm also morbidly curious how much the Tesla service center wants for a replacement blade. $60?
I was close, $75:Add a zero maybe. If the blade didn't come off, the actual wiper would probably have sheared off.

Looks like your intuition was correct. It appears that it was a suicide bomber who rented a CT and loaded the bed with simple explosives. Before detonation he took his life.This feels like a potential terror plot. Just seems too convenient for it to be a random battery explosion.
Plastic? Not even metal? Honda, Mazda, Infiniti have metal blade backer and you just replace the rubber insert. MB the entire blade is replaced.I was close, $75:

However, I was wrong that only the rubber was shorn off. Based on the photos, it was the entire blade; the attachment point is a small plastic piece. Hurray Tesla engineering.
The rubber probably froze to the glass.The only time I ever see snow is if I leave SoCal. So I don't even understand what happened here.

Didn't look that way, it was fresh powder, no ice on windshield.The rubber probably froze to the glass.
