    Is this dumbass trying to load a jetski in the waves or something?

    I have operated heavy equipment, mostly front end loaders. Beach sand below the water line is scary as fuck to me. Like no one needs to tell me that one, not even a little bit. That shit is instinctive. I’d get a little closer with an excavator if I had a few points of hard rock to push and pull with the bucket. A wheeled vehicle that creates vibrations of any kind… that is insane. Not to mention the effects of seawater and electrolysis will wreck that thing. These vehicles really do seem to attract some of the dumbest people in addition to the terrible ethics and politics of a Tesla. Like if Elon was on the moral high ground Left, cyberfruck would still be an idiot’s billboard of a wheeled boat.

      The unveiling of the cybertruck, and determination to build it, solidified my opinion of just how dumb Musk is. Somehow he’s proven it in ways I couldn’t have imagined back then.

    Did this idiot believe Elon’s remark that it can function as a boat for short periods?

      He never defined how short ‘short’ is. He also never said you’d be able to use it for anything else after, lol
