Car Mechanic Reviews The CyberTruck: Breakthrough or Super Gimmick?

[GFleck]

I breezed right by the video like I do most at this point, 90% are just click bait and wannabe youtubers wanting to get the views the CT brings. Looking at the comments, it appears I was not wrong. About the only people I ever get strong negative opinions from in real life (vs online) are mechanics and car dealership people who are understandably quite threatened by Tesla and electric cars in general. Everyone else absolutely loves it. As do 90%+ of the People who actually own them vs rented for a day to make a video.

I must be in the minority but I like the A-Pilar design.

What's different about the a-pillar design? I was just talking about the self-removing cover panel that has Dremel marks on the edges, and is not straight on any of the trucks I've seen so far, even the demo.

100% this! He just makes blatant opinions as if they are fact. It never ceases to amaze me how so many people are not in control of their thoughts and emotions.

Many people, if not most, are sheep. They hear something, anything and that is a fact. They are taught to listen, not to think in school since the age of 4. So, they do what they are told very well.

Oh I get it, I don't know why but it just never computes with me. Oh well! *shrugs shoulders*

It was raining for the first time since I had the truck, I got to see the wiper in use.

It's massive but hey, it works well. ha!

EVs directly attack his profession. I'd be surprised if he didn't come out negative.

Oh, you don't have to wait for rain, it will turn on for beautiful sunny days also...

I've been told, while standing next to my Tesla, on a road trip, that it can't do road trips and takes hours to charge on every stop. No amount of "I'm actually DOING this" was worth anything.

Lordy, yes it will. I can't wait for S3XY buttons to be compatible with Cybertruck -- you can disable the auto wipers totally with the vehicle commander (the part that plugs into the vehicle).

I turn them off manually each time I enable adaptive cruise because they will dry wipe GUARANTEED no matter the weather.

My sister has a model y and she said the same thing. when she enables cruise control they go on mine doesn't do that, I'll be driving along at any point in the day and I'll just come on randomly It doesn't seem like it's connected to the cruise control.

Let's ask the guy whose job may be threatened by the decreased maintenance what he thinks.

Why do you always push false narratives on this forum?

He mostly praises the truck and Tesla. He's reviewed other Teslas if you watch his previous videos.

There are always forum fanbois who see any tiny negative as an attack. I've posted the exact copy/paste comparison of my own direct experiences with Tesla vs Rivian, on both Tesla and Rivian forums, and had people on both tell me that I'm just a clueless fan of the other.

I'm not sure what his review was, positive or negative. All I'm stating is that when looking at any source of information, one should understand any bias that may exist, positive or negative.
And of course, I didn't mention the simple, with a cover shot like a YouTube influencer, the goal of the segment is to lure watchers to make money.
