Looks like someone is having fun with their Cybertruck.
Apparently there is a "boat mode" where the battery can seal itself to protect it from water.
Won't be long before people will be rigging up outboard boat motors using the 220 outlet for power.
Heard people have been renting the Cybertruck for $400-$800/day with 2-3 days minimum. They’re not kidding.

Got a beanie baby for me? Who the flying fuck would pay $400/day for a rental??? I know, a complete retard.
Even in urban areas I can easily get a car for $60/day from a reliable rental place that does the same thing. This is retardation on a scale I haven't seen really in my lifetime. But I know it's been posted. Companies and commercial speak more than than consumers that are blind. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/hertz-sell-about-20000-evs-us-fleet-2024-01-11/
Cyber Truck is a novelty that will die very quickly. Maybe 2 years.
Your opinion is irrelevant.

Unequivocally false. That's the fucking payment per month for a day. That is pure retardation. 100%. Not even debatable. It's overpriced trash. Can't tow shit at mileage. It's a useless vehicle.
I'll give the sedans a chance, but they're also useless and don't work everywhere. Pure EV's are reaching market saturation. We still haven't even dealt with the one's that have 100k miles on them.
This is a stupid conversation that I know I'm right on. Tesla or whoever is not the future of cars. Legacy brands are with hybrids. Think what you want, you're wrong.
When the first batch of Cybertruck came out. The rental rate was $1-$1.2k/day.

But now it's $400-$800 a day and falling like a rock?
It’s a great community. People share their experiences of owning different EV brands. No reason to be a hater if people don’t buy a Tesla.
Lucid announced the 2024 production targets on Wednesday alongside its financial results for last year, where it shared that it lost $2.8 billion in 2023.
Wookie knows. It’s not debatable. Your fun to drive EV car won’t be worth it. Let’s wait till 2025 to find out as predicted by Wookie. No reason to keep beating a dead horse.
Ask anyone who lives in CA and drives just 15k miles/year.
Of course, you know it all and you know it best even though you don’t live here.
I admit I do not have graphs or proof to share. Only my observations of the people in my circle which includes professionals, family and friends.
Buy a hybrid. I've driven everything on the road with rentals and family cars. EV's are NOT the future.
Your entire house if you have a decent one cannot be powered by "green" tech.
The only fun car I would buy is a new corvette
I have toured several houses around here that use solar panels to go "net zero."

I agree and decided a while back that my wife's next car is either a used 4-door Lexus sedan or a Toyota Camry hybrid.
At no point has my argument even been addressed. EV's are more expensive and not feasible even if you don't pay the electric

I know a guy who agrees with you. He trades in his Corvette every year for a new one, but lives in a modest home in a small Nebraska town. The only 2023 'vette I know that is parked in a carport.
This guy is a retired surgeon who has $millions of Berkshire Hathaway stock but prefers to live in the low-end home he inherited from his parents. His only extravagance is this 'vette hobby.
If my wife lets me (:>)), I am going to buy a manual transmission sports car. I know the new Corvette Stingray is a beauty to behold, but starting at $80k, I dunno. I was looking into a Camaro SS. Last year to get a new one. Bimmers are nice, Toyota Supra, Acura Integra, etc, can’t argue with them, but would like to buy American. Any ideas?

I have toured several houses around here that use solar panels to go "net zero." That is, they feed more into Dominion Power than they take out and thus have no electric bill. Not "off grid" but no need for a battery. The owners did have efficient appliances (including A/C) and were more conscious about leaving lights on. Some were normal suburban two-story homes, while a couple were built from the ground up to be green. From what I understand, the solar panels last about 20 years with a payback of about 10 years.

It's generally a lie unless you saw the bills. We did it with our LEED certified homes. Yes I lied. Most builders and solar installers are absolute liars. Can't recall where you are, but I believe you're in an area that is too far North for solar to be worth it.
It's a scam to use government subsidies to make sales. For $20k you might cut your bill in half AND you still finance regardless if it's zero down. People are dumb. I hope you didn't pull the trigger... We don't have the physical resources for solar and EV's to be the future. And the government will get their money. I know the people that are coming after green tech. We all know carbon emissions are bulls shit metrics. EV's won't save the planet, if anything they're making it worse.
