A place to post your Cybertruck fails! We're here to make fun of this hunk of shit and throw as much shade as we can to that garbage bag of a human elon.
No doxxing No slurs No racism And no fucking nazis!
It's weird that sane people don't do these awesome things.
WTF?
Oh no! Anyways.
Good point.
Gap insurance exists for a reason ig
Fake fucking news. Why is everyone latching on to this like it was real?
I read the article hoping to find out how being sideswiped by an e-scooter could total a truck, but I was left unsatisfied.
Remember that a "totaled" vehicle doesn't mean it can't be used, or even that it is heavily damaged just that insurance has decided that the specific repairs needed would cost more than just paying out the current value.
They don't care if you get your vehicle fixed or replaced, insurance only cares about paying as little as possible using every loophole as possible.
It was a made up story posted to reddit. The original reddit post was deleted but people mentioned the pictures were taken directly from this story of a Cybertruck being hit by a Toyota: https://www.electrifiedmag.com/news/tesla-cybertruck-holiday-hiccup-first-reported-accident/
How the hell did a scooter do 77k of damage (or more)? Was it fired out of a rail gun? Did the rider survive? Do they need help?
Most likely explanation: had to wait for the cop to do a police report and got caught out in the rain and forgot to activate car wash mode.
Perfectly reasonable and normal for a scooter to destroy a giant pickup. Was the scooter made by space x?
Also the title could be misleading, was a scooter in the lane and he just crushed it against a wall or second lane of traffic? Maybe scooter crushed under the frame punctured battery pack?. A lot off driver vs cyclist collisions often get headlines like Cyclist hits car. When the reality is driver pulled into path of cyclist. Or Driver actually directly hit cyclist by not giving proper lane clearance.
That is the reason GAP insurance coverage exists. Deciding to skimp out on your insurance coverage when buying an expensive vehicle is stupid. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Buying a 198k car on credit, smh.
Google started recommending this site to me recently, and it's garbage. It's all unverified social media posts told in the first person. Shit is WILD.
I dunno how likely it is to find a peer-reviewed article about this. It’s not like “cybertruck owner made horribly bad financial decision” is breaking news, it’s just the status quo.
