The freezing rain created a crazy texture on the body of this Cybertruck!

Had to snap a couple photos of this cool texture!

Almost looks CG.

justinreddit1 2025-01-06 23:44

It’s officially a Freezer

trustme_imadoct0r 2025-01-06 23:44

Is this a different texture than every other car? ….Asking for our southern friends.

IASILA15 2025-01-06 23:48

So sick.

[deleted] 2025-01-06 23:56

Very cool. How was getting in after? Did that ice pop right off or did you have to warm it up before you could get in?

LR_Photo 2025-01-06 23:58

True! The ice made everything look so off lol.

LR_Photo 2025-01-06 23:59

Lmao. I didn’t even think about that. Well done.

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 00:00

To be completely honest…I didn’t even try it.

ZealousidealWar6241 2025-01-07 00:09

Turn on the heat and record time lapse

benso87 2025-01-07 00:20

The flatness of the sides might be what made it, but they'd have to show other cars in the same uncovered lot to compare. My Model 3 looked like it had scales after a couple hours in yesterday's weather, so it can vary a lot.

DGTIGER007 2025-01-07 00:27

Looks cool! Send it to Elon he will love it!

vonTrappAB 2025-01-07 00:32

Edit: OP responded below with some explanations. I'm still skeptical, but hey...cool images none the less. \*\*\*\* Respectfully...are you claiming this the result of freezing rain? I ask because there are a lot of signs indicating this was staged. 1. Water pooling under the truck, but nowhere else 2. Cybertruck is covered in ice, other vehicles are not 3. the truck wheels are covered in ice, so the vehicle did not move 4. awfully convenient that the truck was right there in front a massive USA flag 5. surrounding snow does not look like it's been hit with freezing rain 6. An instant bright sunny day? 7. Photo 4 is the dead giveaway. Footprint in snow shows zero sign of water / freezing slush / rain. If you staged this to make a cool photo, then just say so. They are neat images...but be honest. This was not freezing rain. Looks much more like water poured / sprayed onto the body in cold conditions.

kapara-13 2025-01-07 00:33

Do the doors still open?

[deleted] 2025-01-07 00:34

No. Happens all the time to vehicles in freezing rain.

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 00:40

Fun idea!

MJC136 2025-01-07 00:41

Buddy, relax… even the red truck in the background has the same ice rain forming on it

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 00:45

Hey, take a look at my page. I just posted a Red GT500 that was also covered in ice. This was a unique weather system that passed through the area. 🤙🏼

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 00:46

Thought I’d add: The vehicles in the back are under the overhang which is why they are mostly dry except for the red HD

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 00:49

I didn’t want to try my luck lol. Plus it was annoyingly cold and the less I was out there the better 😂

Very cool shots. Thanks for sharing

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 01:03

Thanks!

Kerberos42 2025-01-07 01:32

Throw some fireworks in the back, that’ll get rid of the ice quickly.

Professor_Game1 2025-01-07 01:48

And i bet it started easier than an f150 would have

Beginning_Night1575 2025-01-07 02:47

That’s ice

BreadThief02 2025-01-07 02:48

Gaayyyyyyy

That’s so sick, someone should make that a wrap

mrpockets44 2025-01-07 03:58

Ick

Dorkmaster79 2025-01-07 04:22

Seeing people get aggressively incorrect like that is wild.

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 05:14

Hey, I don’t mean to seem annoying but I just wanted to let you know that I just posted some more photos of the other cars on the lot. I had a couple other people ask about the precarious weather so I made a post that hopefully clears up the sheer scale of how many cars were affected. I don’t blame you for being skeptical. It was some weird weather for these parts👍🏼👍🏼 Edit: Spelling

er1end 2025-01-07 06:24

op discovers ice exist.

pylzworks 2025-01-07 06:38

Not even the ice makes it cool

mb303030 2025-01-07 11:37

I'm not buying it. You're just the master of all the crazy crap that guy above pointed out 😂

ObeseSnake 2025-01-07 11:39

Need more CT content here. Great pictures!

Professor_Game1 2025-01-07 13:15

There's no door handles to freeze and you can preheat it from your phone so I doubt it

I’ve never seen an angle of the CT that actually looks good…

Professor_Game1 2025-01-07 15:51

I live in new England and the ice starts to melt in 5-10 minutes, ice will never hold the door shut unless you shot your car with a hose the night before

vonTrappAB 2025-01-07 16:18

All good, OP. Have a great day!

whitemiketyson 2025-01-07 16:59

Spoiler alert: >!there isn't one!<

tricenice 2025-01-07 17:49

Jesus christ, weird thing to hyper-analyze. Who cares?

LR_Photo 2025-01-07 18:01

You too! 🫱🏼‍🫲🏻🤙🏼

VJTX 2025-01-07 18:10

Looks like a frozen turd now.

longtimefanhim 2025-01-07 20:00

You got ICEd

[deleted] 2025-01-07 21:33

No? Like any other car with that much ice on it. You’re not getting in. At least with teslas you can heat them up and melt the ice. If that was either of my Audis I’d be screwed

No-Firefighter-7785 2025-01-08 09:28

It should. There is a motor that pushes the door open about an inch.

unimatrixZxero 2025-01-08 09:56

The internet would have loved you for recording if the door pusher would push through that ice.

IronGigant 2025-01-08 10:24

Well, that's a huge generalisation. My F-350 has been iced over like that a few times. Just whack the handle a few times, give the door a light shoulder check to make a crack, then pull with steady pressure.

lommer00 2025-01-08 14:32

Tesla claimed the door opener could push though 1/2" of ice. Would be great to test that!

Mychatbotmakesmecry 2025-01-08 14:45

It’s all marketing bud. And terrible boring lame manipulative marketing at that.

AlistairBennet 2025-01-08 15:26

Comment I was looking for. This is exactly what it looks like on every car lol

TheBurtReynold 2025-01-08 16:15

You can just hit it with a hammer to get it off

happycabinsong 2025-01-08 16:16

so cool, the warranty is officially voided by the way

Linton_M 2025-01-08 18:04

I’m in Florida and have yet to discover ice

RaidLord509 2025-01-08 23:41

🥶

nastasimp 2025-01-09 00:47

Annnndddd.... warranty voided somehow.

pile1983 2025-01-09 13:08

According to the OP, the frequency of "lol" usage makes it clear that they still have plenty of things to discover.

PrensadorDeBotones 2025-01-09 19:19

I've leaned my entire body weight against my CT's door, leaning at past 40 degrees, and pressed the open button. I'm a 6'4 205lbs dude. It moves me and opens the door at the same speed and with the same motor sound as when I'm not leaning on it. That tiny piston is crazy powerful.

PrensadorDeBotones 2025-01-09 19:22

You can open the doors from the phone app. Each door has a powerful electric piston motor that can easily break ice. I've personally tested leaning my entire 205lbs body weight against the door and trying to shove it shut while opening it. But if your app isn't connecting, you only have to chip a tiny amount of ice to depress any of the door buttons a tiny amount and boom, the door will pop open and you're in.

Gambitzz 2025-01-10 00:09

Prob voids the warranty

lommer00 2025-01-10 03:25

Sweet! Good to hear actual experience with this!

Kingofhearts1206 2025-01-10 19:10

Congrats CT, you got promoted from fridge to freezer.

Definitely less chance of it exploding with this skin.
