I would laser etch Ram logo on that back side of the Cybertruck.
I you look closely you can see the Ram logo indented on the tail gate. ?

Hopefully it does not take them long to get back on the road.

450 Miles in, got rear ended

@wamsankas' Cybertruck was rear ended. In his words:

His truck got destroyed, good because it was his fault. Now I’ll probably wait 3 months for the part. Can’t wait for the estimate on this one but the app is giving me an error when I try to schedule service.

Great call, wonder if Tesla would let them keep it? Figure with the downtime at least let them have a great piece.

Looks like a simple repair for that Dodge, crumpled zone did what it had to.

Keep us updated on CT repairs, never heard anything about the first crash.
Yeah, most rear end collisions end up looking like this. I don't think this is a test of "strength" but I'd be interested in seeing what the underlying CT damage/repairs are

So the Cybertruck have not deployed its calcuations for rear-end collision avoidance? lol

Wear that as a badge of honor and leave it

Should post little sign that says this was a Dodge.
Just draw a Ram logo on the imprint and wear it proudly, and have a bumper sticker "A Ram kissed my ass"?

Oh man! My complete bad! I posted this after I saw it on Reddit, didn't realize it was here. My apologies to OP and Mods. ?

You think the damage to the Ram could be buffed right out?

I smell a class action lawsuit for false advertising! How can they call it a Dodge Ram when it turns too slowly to dodge a Cybertruck and when you try to ram one, this is the result? Dodge has been mis-naming their products and that has deceived buyers about the true capabilities of products carrying badges that say "Dodge" and "Ram".

According to a Sherriff on the accident scene, FSD may have been active in the Cybertruck in the moments preceding the crash and this incident was likely the result of erratic braking that Tesla FSD beta testers call "phantom braking". However, he reversed course 20 minutes later, after learning that FSD has not yet been installed on any Cybertrucks yet, even though Elon Musk, the showman that he is, promised it would be. Instead, he surmised the driver of the Tesla may have stopped too quickly and even the heroic braking efforts of the Ram driver could not prevent a collision. He also suggested people need to think twice before stopping in the middle of their lane. ?

Oh man. It’s unfortunate that the CT got rear-ended after only 450 miles. I’d be pissed.

However, what a show of strength for the Cybertruck. The tailgate is not even misaligned! It looks like the bumper took most of the brunt of the impact. The mark of the outline of the ram grill with logo on the CT tailgate made me chuckle.

Hopefully there is not severe unseen damage to the rear subframe on the CT.
