So yesterday my overpriced toy / not a truck was caught actually doing the kind of truck thing I bought it for 😲 AND nothing broke, the wheels didn't fall off, there appears to be no permanent damage, and I drove all the way across town and back and even had enough battery to take the wife for dinner after! We did only have like 50% battery at the end of the night but luckily we made it back into the garage. I hope I have enough gas to get to the gas station in the morning to fill up. Oh wait 🤔... Maybe it was all a fluke or I just got lucky, time will tell. I'm as shocked as you...

Maybe next weekend I'll double down and really push my luck and try hauling some lumber or a new water heater. Should I or am I just being crazy?

Took a big risk there, thinking too many chairs and the casting might snap and the truck catch on fire! :cool:
I made extra sure the chairs were super dry because I've read online that any drips of water will melt through the bed liner and the battery pack will explode in a thermal neucular reaction. I came across a puddle in the road on the trip but successfully used extract mode to navigate it. I heard a low hum and what sounded like air when the truck raised and lowered though, is that normal? Internet says it means Tesla can't even spell suspension let alone build one and I should just junk the whole thing.

Good thing you didn't take it thru the car wash like that.

I hate to say anything, but if you haul this load again, you may want to flip the chairs over. So that the top of the chair has no possibility of hitting the glass. You very well may have used other mitigation techniques, if so, I apologize for my suggestion.

You must be one crazy rich city boy to think that POS can replace a real truck! What if you ran the battery flat? Did you think of that little rich boy? You can't just pour gasoline in an EV you know, you would need a big generator.

The wheels will fall off cuz the brakes are too small. Better upgrade the tranny before trying the lumber.
Cybertruck has cheap, undersized valve guides that wear out as soon as the warranty expires. Greedy Elon designed it that way.

LOL Thanks for the laugh this morning.

I dare you to do tables next weekend. That way your chairs have somewhere they're comfortable.
