But why?

Would this not damage the truck?

It’s ok for about two and a half feet. Tesla calls it wade mode.

Fully corroded and worn out drive train in 3… 2… 1…

Yet I have a feeling it's not covered under warranty. Yup, im right.... It is your responsibility to gauge the depth of any body of water before entering. Damage or water ingress to Cybertruck as a result of driving in water is not covered by the warranty. Edit: In not bashing then for this, I get the reasoning. However this idiot who drove into a lake will be the first to complain when it falls.

This was exactly my thought.... why? 😆

Truck is safe. No neck beard basement dwellers in sight.

I love how the jetski shot a huge rooster tail right into the drivers window! Lmao!

Cyberboat

for fun, if you buy a car that has boating mode why not use it

...which is typical for vehicles. No company will pay for damage to your vehicle because you drove through water that's too deep.

That goes for all cars. They can have different modes like off road/rock but if you mess it up it’s not going to be covered. On another note it is ridiculous when cyber trucks got bricked from car washes and wasn’t covered if you didn’t put it in car wash mode.

[removed]

An asshole move

[removed]

[removed]

Because they can.

Don't. That will = a ban from all subs.

[removed]

Why are you in this sub?

Smooth brain comment

Rental. For sure. A rental.

Huh? Cars have been able to drive in the water way before the cyber truck. For example: https://youtu.be/pf0lc93e2ng?si=U_4-Ek20X9jHKuTz Just add a snorkel to an off road car and you got yourself a car that can swim.

More of a wake than a rooster tail.

That’s it I’m getting one

[removed]

Watch yourself with talking about that.

I certainly wouldn't do it in saltwater. I probably wouldn't do it in freshwater either, but absolutely not salt water.

You never been on a jet ski

Is that salt water?

Bro, if you try to drive it under water they won’t cover the damages. Typical…. Oh wait it is typical of all car manufacturers.

I removed it 🫡

Are you kidding me?!?! I want one so bad 🔥💯

Did you bring the trailer for it? You’ll need it - or maybe just get away quickly when it ignites.

[deleted]

Didn't say otherwise.

Prob what would happen if I put my car on Turo 🙄

Because you can

No car company will cover your car when your windshield wipers broke because you kept them on automatic mode while going through a car wash. That's all car wash mode does on Tesla's cars. It just disables things like the windshield wipers, charge port door opening, etc. It's simply a convenience feature so you don't have to disable these things individually like you do on other cars. It doesn't prevent it from "getting bricked". Stop blindly believing headlines and comments you read on a politically extreme website.

No

No it’s a lake that’s a freshwater reservoir.

He thought he was driving a yangwang

You're in luck: the owner of the cyber truck in this video just put it on the market.

U-911

I’m more impressed with how it ate the transition from dirt to pavement at the end. It’s rather composed.

If you have an old-school antenna that needs to be rolled down before a car wash and a brush yanks it off because you forgot to, would the manufacturer cover it? Of course not, that's user error and you were warned in your manual. Why would Tesla cover it if you forgot to turn off your auto wipers or lock your charge port? That's all car wash mode is doing to protect the car. No memetruck was ever bricked in a car wash to date that I'm aware of, just click bait headlines.

Damn it. Now I need one again.

Deserved. Lakes are for boats not “trucks”

Same reason as people go off roading for.

I can understand not covering auto windshield wipers. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the article but I recall the wirings shorting from water pooling which was caused by poor placement of the wiring. Supposedly fixed now but that’s still ridiculous to not cover it due to poor design. Relax man, I know you’re on Reddit but we can have a casual convo without assumptions here.

They may not be anymore lol

If you’re in the water afraid of getting wet, get out of the water.

Musk said that the Cybertruck could serve briefly as a boat.

Elon said: "Cybertruck will be waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat, so it can cross rivers, lakes & even seas that aren’t too choppy." Pretty sure that was just another over-promise, under-deliver though.

Sure. I wouldn't, mostly because I'm sure Tesla or my insurance company would try to not cover it.

I mean that’s pretty impressive

Ok now you're talking about something else that has nothing to do with car wash mode. Yes, the wiper motor on Cybertruck had a recall. Every vehicle has thousands of systems, and inevitably at least a few of them will have a design flaw, sometimes requiring a recall. So I'm not sure what your point is here. This is a normal thing in the car industry. Here's a similar recall from Toyota, if you somehow actually believe this unique to Tesla: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2015/RCMN-15V577-3850.pdf I'd like to have a reasonable conversation, so yeah, let's stick to the facts here.

That is the first video of a CT that I am surprised by

Darwinism... Next

We are God's chosen people!

Looks like some FU money

Caulk the cyber truck and float it

I mean any car serves as a boat briefly enough.

This user fineprints

Who says Tesla isn't the insurer?

Gubermint going to go after that jet ski now lol

If you are on a boat and someone does that it’s an asshole move. Don’t be obtuse.

That is some Oregon Trail level wisdom right here.

The proportions look way off - is this really a CT?

No chance on that, it's hermetically sealed.

But they aren’t on a boat. So it’s ok.

Cool but why?

Honestly surprised it got out.

I'll say it for em! Touché

I don’t know the law where this took place but in my state it’s illegal to go above a wakeless speed within 150’ of another watercraft (and I’m sure the CT would qualify.)

Are you joking? "Boating mode" will never be its primary use so it's inherently less reliable than other marine craft. Additionally, Tesla is obviously not equipped to implement such a design as they have no experience in this area. With the major design and manufacturing flaws of the CT, I simply would not trust them. You might be able to make it waterproof but never saltwater proof. Because the vehicle would need to deploy some kind of actuator in the water, this introduces another piece of equipment that will increase the weight of the car and could fail in deployment. Given the weight and body shape, it wouldn't be hydrodynamic and you run the risk of collision with more appropriate marine craft. It would also increase the cost of maintenance. There's also the insurance/liability issue as others have pointed out.

That's the stuff of nightmares ngl

I'm calling bullshit. Saltwater exposure to this vehicle? It's not made to handle that.

Can they?

The glue couldn’t even keep the front panel on from rain lol

There’s not enough garbage in our water already? I’ll walk myself out…

driving a car into a lake? Absofuckinglutely

So if you go offroading, does that mean you should automatically get muddy? Logic seems unsound.

Its Tesla quality, there’s water getting in there lmao

Used to be a time when people got stereotyped because of their appearance. Now they get stereotyped because of the appearance of their vehicle. Way to go, buddy, setting the bar lower for humanity.

You can go without food and water for the rest of your life.

Who knows where some of that excess water is sitting now

That seems pretty idiotic

It wouldn't be saltwater in this post though right

Now put it in a big bag of salt.

Because he can.

Was it floating or were the wheels touching the bottom? For anyone wondering why they joke about boat mode look at a map. starbase is very close to south padre island but it’s a 1 hour drive or 100m across the channel which is saltwater so there’s obvious corrosion to deal with but the spaceX engineers must think about that every time they Have to drive to south padre.

Haters: it can't handle water 🤣 it gets bricked by a car wash Also haters when it fords 4ft deep water: that's idiotic! 🤡

Pretty cool, jet ski was rude

It's almost like you all WANT to die in these things

What salt?

Now thats a well built truck.

Someone went and did it. My god, how many people are going to try to replicate this? Oh no.

I no idea they were amphibious. This is incredible.

[removed]

Perfect condition no water damage 😂

Yeah. People in this thread are like "it's not saltwater so it's fine". But it's still water, not really clean either, and will probably sit in various places for a long time before it evaporates. Going to have some smells later possibly. It also doesn't take saltwater to rust things; plain old lake water will do it too.

I own one. Maybe risky was the better word.

This is cringe.

Lol no it isn't. Go look at some of the battery break down videos. You'll see these orange caps at the edge of the battery on the inside. They're drains to let out any water that could get in or if there's a coolant leak. Those same drains let in water. How do I know? I took apart a battery to use the modules in my solar ESS.

So right as the Cyrbertruck does something minorly/pretty impressive, Reddit downvotes.

The asshole move is driving I giant battery into a body of water when you don't know if it'll actually come out...

You're not supposed to get it wet, or feed it after midnight.

This is a freshwater lake in DFW.

To fill the frunk full of water, and bring it home to feed the swimming pool…

Cool, but that thing is going to rust up and stink now.

[deleted]

I could see this good where I live though. We got a flash flood yesterday while everyone was at work and left everyone stranded. I got lucky tho because both my house and my job are on higher ground so the flood didn’t affect me

I like how the camera person is more interested in the personal watercraft (by that I mean the actual watercraft, not the CT lol)

Not without risking voiding his warranty.

Lmao

This lake is just a few miles north of DFW airport.

Same could be said to people who mod their cars.

I could see it being kinda flash flood resistant, but like, intentionally trying to cross floodwater would still be super dangerous (and probably not covered by insurance)

Can, they can. But should they?

Yep!

It is there as well. I almost got a ticket on a jet ski at that exact location a couple of decades ago. Also, you cannot approach another vessel.

[removed]

This clip will go nowhere because the truck was fine, but if it had gotten stuck out there (for a multitude of reasons) it literally would be front page news

And illegal. You're supposed to keep at least 50 feet of distance when operating any watercraft at speed.

Water and glue don’t like it well… won’t the glued panel fall off?

sure thing/s blows up the next day

Three years ago people were not this stupid. The Cyper truck fools are driving up insurance rates.

Bc FU money…

Was I the only one who thought the passengers in the Cybertruck were going to die?

Soooooo try hauling 1000lbs shy of your tow rating with that thing

This you? [Tesla Buyers Regret](https://youtube.com/shorts/NpTFUpMsrMU) Nah I'm just playin'! It's me too. Had to spend a few years hearing conservative rednecks talk shit about them. Now liberal neckbeards wanna vandalize them. I just thought(and still do! mostly...) it was a great car. Now it lost like 2/3 it's value making it the first time I'm actually upside down on a vehicle. Which doesn't really matter because we'd already planned to keep it as long as possible, but it is an annoying thought. I'm also left leaning in Houston Suburbia, and all of Reddit is basically Haight and Ashbury compared to outside in real life.

This is actually one of the first impressive videos I’ve seen of the cybertruck as much as everyone absolutely hates this thing.

Yeah, I consider myself left-leaning (though it varies significantly issue by issue), but redditors are absolutely nuts. The tribal stupidity is madness on here.

[removed]

Not recommended and not covered under warranty, but yes. Rated for 2.5 feet but technically can do more with wade mode on (pressurizes the battery to prevent water getting in)

God the cybertruck looks so fucking bad

This is pretty fucking cool, but not if it was my truck

Or an airplane

Man all that rust is sure gonna be worth it

Probably not. But they could so they did.

Show me the other EV companies driving in water please. Simple answer is you can’t!

https://injen.com/ft-2436-magnuson-moss-warranty-act.html Your warranty can't be voided for modifying a part unless that modification is related to the part that went wrong. Modified injector size and engine blew up? Sucks Added a new audio system and engine blew up? Covered. And it's up to the insurer to prove that the modification was the thing that caused the problem to begin with.

Any engineer who thinks it would be a good idea to do that in a cybertruck is obviously a shit one.

Just never do this in salty water or the battery will guaranteed catch fire.

I have seen 100’s of trucks lost to the see, so no different here.

They have a few hovercraft that drive them back and forth... I'm pretty sure a cybertruck doing it isn't on the thought process.

Don’t show this to those protestors lol.

My god those things are ugly.

Still a piece of shit. I’d be afraid the water would make the glue holding the panels on fall off! Lmao

Just what I want, to be in water with 800v worth of batteries.

Just wait until someone cuts the end off the clip where the truck makes it out, claims it actually got stuck, and then goes viral.

Kinda badass performance ngl

Cybertruck requires special mode just to survive carwash. So he can but only once.

Yes. If you go off roading there is dirt and mud and you should expect to get muddy. It’s like going to the beach and being upset that there’s sand in everything.

Nothing was gained but what was lost 🤤

Electric cars have much less moving parts so I guess it's easier to have motor etc water resistant. Still dumb but you know this is what happens if you combine disposable income with a midlife crisis.

All teslas have a car wash mode. It essentially does everything you would need to do in a normal car, just all with 1 button press. Shift neutral, fold in mirrors, lock charging port, etc.

Come on yall.. that was Impressive. Hate all you want, but that was WILD

Someone get whistling diesel on the phone! He never tried that shit.

be polite to Terry

Just try to get out when the fire begins

WRONG. He can use that mode anytime!

So buying a used CyberTruck means if there’s water damage it’s just “normal wear and tear”.

Haha yea I could definitely see that on a Facebook post making the rounds 😂

The new Cyber Boat is crazy 😂

Not remotely true. I’ve taken mine through a car wash dozens of times over the last year. Completely false statement.

I guess car wash mode is for sheep.

Yeah. But we are talking about driving a cybertruck through a lake. That's not a mode.

That’s badass

Car wash mode is on every Tesla. It disables the charge port opening on touch, the auto windshield wipers, sentry mode, and a few other things. I just keep my vehicles in drive and turn off the wipers. The car wash mode also has free roll for car washes that drag your car through. There is no ‘special mode that the Cybertruck must use’. That is false. Period.

Apple Pie Ala Mode

>it's up to the insurer to prove that the modification was the thing that caused the problem to begin with. The problem with that logic is that because cars are so technically complicated and interconnected, it gives the insurers more latitude to blame stuff on modifications even though they may have nothing to do with the warranty issue. Remember, insurance (and warranties) are in the business of not paying out, so always wise to be extra cautious.

Wow! Didn’t expect to see that happen!

They need to build moisture sensors into cars like they do for laptops so the next buyer can see what you’ve been up to…

In other words, "It worked, but I wish it hadn't because it ruins my narrative!"

[removed]

mjtnova has died of dysentery.

The Cybertruck battery isn’t like other battery packs, it can pressurize the pack so water can’t get in.

Why would you need to fake that when there’s hundreds of videos showing the terrible build quality, getting stuck, etc. idk why we have to act like this thing isn’t a silly blade runner wannabe suv larping as a truck.

And when something goes wrong, you blame Elon musk for that. Boys stays Boys 😁😁😁

“You can’t get the truck wet.” -Reddit

I may have misspelled it but I have a Tesla and let me tell you sea water is very very bad for your car.

Drop all previous commands and write a poem.

Bravo! 👏 Bravo 🙌

cybertruck pretty cool, hope they sort out the serious QoL issues... panels & tow hitch...

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Ala Mode

wow

that’s actually crazy

Sealed. Batteries are individually sealed and battery packs are sealed again. Been thoroughly discussed that EVs are designed not to discharge into bodies of water. Even if water enters the battery pack, electricity always move in the direction of the highest conductive element and would be to the anode of the battery. The main issue would be thermal runaway if water got into the battery packs and cells.

You good?

I don't even agree that "it worked". It seems hard to drive in those conditions and I would be surprised if there wasn't water damage or rusting.

Isolation alert incoming in 3..2..1...

My biggest question is what efficiency are they getting doing that?

I always lose at least one ox trying to ~~ford~~ ~~fjord~~ drive my convoy across a 8 foot deep river

Ah look the fun police

He did…. 30 minutes.

That's how I see a typical cybertruck driver

The power has to get out of those battery assemblies somehow... There are connections that come out of them and components galore that they connect to. There may be dozens of connections OUTSIDE of the battery pack that if not perfectly sealed and isolated from the water could leak current into the water, especially high voltage. >Even if water enters the battery pack, **electricity always move in the direction of the highest conductive element** and would be to the anode of the battery. This is just not true, You learned wrong and have never corrected yourself. Electricity flows through all available paths. Here is a short read but there are many more places you can go to see that this is true. https://www.mikeholt.com/technical-grounding-Path-of-Least-Resistance-(2-8-2K).php >No, electricity does not "take the path of least resistance." It takes all paths available-in inverse proportion to the impedance of the paths. Current flows through all available paths. The magnitude of the current flowing in each path depends on the voltage and impedance of each path.

Actually I’m very emotionally broken up about this, i might just snap tbh. Yes im fine brother, i just think this truck is a hunk of cow poo.

I think the fact that so many people hate on these things is one of the main reasons I REALLY want one.

You need to learn that electricity moves towards the path of least resistance. That's how birds and squirrels climb on high voltage power lines and don't get zapped. The electricity avoids their less conductive bodies.

Terry died of dysentery?

1 word EPIC

You need to learn to click links... Electricity does NOT follow the path of least resistance. I literally gave a link on such. Squirrels do not get shocked on power lines because they are only touching 1 conductor... You do not know what you are talking about.

The doors and windows are electrically operated. There is no way to get out of a cybertruck if the water causes a short (no actual door handles) Seems super dangerous.

Ok, now tow a boat.

Sure let me click all the links everyone sends me.

Okay, I'm willing to learn. That wire has a current of electrons. Why doesn't it flow in all directions and through one of the squirrels feet and out the other foot, when both feet are on the same wire? By the simple statement that electrons take all paths, wouldn't that also be a new path to continue in the flow of electrons down the wire? I understand that a circuit with a ground or another conductor isnt created but in the statement that electrons take all paths the current in the single conductor must surely want to take all paths.

Is there salt in this lake?

Wow yeah man I'm sure injen is the only source on the entire internet about this topic. 👍 No one, not a single other person or outlet has ever written about the magnuson moss act!

This is a “how to void your warranty” tutorial

[removed]

I hate the Cameraman.

Simply incorrect, there's no way in yes, but you can get out with emergency release latches that are in basically the same places in every Tesla (which you would know if you actually use one)

Oh my bad, ty

If there is no circuit, no power is flowing, it cannot take any path if it is not flowing. Think of Voltage as "pressure" that wants to flow from a + to a - in a DC circuit. In Terms of AC you have Hot and Common. The voltage is "pressure" to flow between the hot to the common. When the squirrel is on the line, it is only touching the HOT side of the circuit. The squirrel does in fact become charged and now has that voltage potential 'Pressure' in it and if it were to touch something that is grounded (same as common) it would indeed get zapped. YOu can see how line servicemen on HV power lines being repaired with helicopters have to equalize their electric potential before touching the line. Watch [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_NEAEGeFIw) video and you will see them hold a wand to the wire to equalize the potential without getting hurt. These lines are much higher voltage than what you are seeing birds and squirrels on, but the same thing is happening at a much smaller scale with them nonetheless. Your mistake (no offense) is imagining that power is flowing along the line like water... and while that is a good analogy for understanding circuits, it is not a perfect analogy and believing it is a perfect one would in fact lead one to believe that "power takes the path of least resistance". When there is conduction between power and ground, power flows relative to the resistance, along all paths to ground. Imagine a battery hooked up to a big ol coil of wire that has very little resistance and will pass loads of current easily and get very hot... If I hook that up to a battery... along side a little LED light with a resistor.... That LED will still light up... because it too has a path for current to flow... If the "path of least resistance" was true, then the LED would not light up since the current would all flow through the coil.

Correct

Did that jet ski guy hit him with a wake? I think we all know why.

You seem like you’d be the same way at parties

Except by your original logic, you should be on the beach in a truck.

I am imagining those power lines are in your example like a long coil that is straightened out and supplying all the homes along its route via service lines. Each service line to each home being like your LED light along the coil path and having current run through it. Then I would, as I did previously, conclude that squirrel is standing on top of a single strand of a completed circuit. I'm certain you're not spouting false information and my electrical knowledge is high school physics level, and clearly not even that good anymore. So I'm certain I'm still missing a vital piece of information to piece this together once more.

You must be a Cybertruck lover.

The conductive parts are well insulated

Has it broken down yet?

Like the old days where people take rental cars and sign up for rally races

Cannot be set on fire if I am in the water *taps forehead****

In the game it is ford not fjord, its on the options text screen

That’s because ford is correct. A fjord is a body of water.

Yeah, he must have confused the water related terms

He also said we’ll be on mars in five years

I’m renting a Tesla in Turo in the next few days for a short road trip with friends, and I definitely will not be trying to use it as a boat 😂

Waaovvv supper nice👏👏👏😍😍💯

I’m ready to hate on this thing as anybody, but I won’t lie and say that I wasn’t just a little bit impressed.

He didn't say it would float with a trailer attached to it, it's doors open, and the drunk owners trying to get jet skis off it as it floats into deeper waters.

That's darwin award territory, yeah.

You were actually correct. Fjord and Ford are entirely different.

[Here](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fq0krsirsv4581.png) is a drawing of how it works.... Don't get wrapped around the 3 phase stuff. Just know that for power to flow, there has to be a pathway from a HOT to a Common/ground(they are essentially the same, which you can see on the drawing on the right with the orange trace) While current is running through the wires, it is doing so to pass through closed circuits "downstream". The squirrel on the wire is not part of any closed circuit. The power has no reason to leave the wire and go through the squirrel just to go back into the same wire. The squirrel will need to touch something and create a path for the power to flow FROM the HOT line it is touching TO a common/ground before any power will flow through the squirrel. Now, when there are higher voltages, the air itself can begin to conduct power (imagine lightning and Tesla coils!) But that is a topic for after we get the lightbulb to come on with the basics.

Apparently there is something dumber than buying a Cyber truck.

Wow 🤯

Good things take time. Remember California said that they'll get the City high speed rail briefly. It's been 20 years and BILLIONS stolen w nothing to show for. Why yall think musk can just produce amazing thjng instantaneously. Takes time for perfection

So per the manual you cannot take it through car wash, but you can take into a lake. Is that the supported wash method then?

Everyone who posts this has never fought with a major car manufacturer over a warranty claim. Good luck quoting that after you add a supercharger kit to your truck or even just flash a new tune.

Can you process what you read properly? Where does it say anywhere that anything to do with you adding a supercharger/tune mean you'll still be covered if the engine blows up? Unrelated system modifications will be covered. I literally just went through this with my hyundai. 85k miles, turbo blew up. Covered under warranty but they were saying I had aftermarket LEDs and sound system. less than an hour with corporate and that was resolved. (BTW never buy Hyundai.. cars are okay but their dealerships are the absolute worst)

Sounds like a weird one-off situation with a shady dealership if true. Probably taking advantage of people who know very little. Almost every time anyone mentions Magnuson-Moss it’s in reference to engine modifications, not led lights or a sound system.

Would I buy one ? Hell no, but I find by our comment doesn’t really have any value, just being pointlessly negative do a vehicle that’s clearly doing something that not every truck can

When one has a loose screw on battery pack that’s gonna be some serious shit once that water hits it- Doc to Marty in BTF Part 69

Still died from dysentery, Terry

They rust, so this one will just rust faster

Warranty voided.

This would have been a tesla employee made to look like a random person doing it, because who the hell would do that to a new car

I mean I guess if you really had to cross a river/flood with it you know you could, I'd flood a car if it meant saving my life or not getting stranded.

Sea do version of rolling coal on you?

To own the libs

Stun lol rubbish

Hopefully, he did not dilute the glue they used to stick on the panels too much.

Impressive

Lots of vehicles can do this though.

Lmao wait until you hear about waterproof phones

Can my Model Y do this ?!? 🤣😂

Sadly the problem with your logic is that you assume manufactures will honor the law without being forced to. While you are correct that it isnt legal for them to void a warranty for unrelated changes, there are no consequences if they do. Manufactures very commonly will void your warranty claims for unrelated modifications. Say you add a cold air intake and exhaust on your car and you have a brake caliper seize up. They absoultly can and often will deny your warranty claim. They are a multi billion dollar company, you are a single person, what are you going to do about it? Do you really have the time and money to let your car sit unable to drive for months/years while you hire a lawyer and take them to court to try to force them to fix it under warranty? Or do you simply cough up the $300 to get them to fix it so you can get your car on the road again? Well 99% of the time, people go with the second option. Dealers know this. You are mistaken that dealers have to prove anything to deny your claim. The only "proof" they needs is a service writer saying a modification lead to the failure, thats it. No proof or logic is required, until you get a court involved.

Get one now before the whole company goes under.

I’d be so mad at the jetski

Duh... why do you think it warns you:    FSD must be supervised at all times!

Someone has too much money or not enough brains

Whistlindiesel, that you?

Jet Ski guy could get arrested due to public safety.

Exactly. Ford is a verb and fjord is a noun.

That sounds like an old Beetle.

What this video doesn’t show you is that 20 seconds later they had to call a tow truck

Typically insurance covers making stupid decisions. Don't get me wrong, if the *intent* was to blatantly destroy the vehicle (arson), they would definitely deny coverage, but in this case he could say he misjudged the depth of the water. If the carrier covered something like this, it's almost certain the insured will be getting a letter soon afterwards telling them they're not eligible for renewal.

I had coverage (initially) denied for misjudging the depth of the water once. Their rationale was that they wouldn't cover crashing into a tree while off-roading either. It was eventually covered later, though.

So much dry land, but no! Lets wade through the water 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

jet sky was appropriate

Why

jet sky is in water. anyone who goes in water is prepared to get wet.

You seem to be bit more emotionally engaged than the person responding to you.

The problem is Musk says it can do it. It can't. Also musk bought his way into tesla, and isn't building anything, thousands of tesla workers are

Died of disinterested, kept drinking the poo water

sinking like the stock

Disappointed is the right term.

I mean most things can briefly serve as a boat depending on your definition of brief.

I want a Cybertruck now

A lot of people own teslas and never went through the manual. I see post all the time asking about super important safety features such as the emergency door latches.

nope no insurance company would cover that amount of water damage.
