dude, tell your story and pictures

Ha, there's not much to tell, just a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee I beat to death cleaning commercial fishing tackle off the shorelines of Hawaii Island. The truck is back home in Hawaii and I'm in NYC.

I'm sure we'd love the pics ^-^ I know I would.

Tons of plastic crap and jettisoned commercial fishing tackle choking the life out of our oceans. I have a small Non-profit, Clean The Pacific. I just have a Facebook page, but when I move back home to Hawaii, I'm going to scale up operations. The Jeep served me well, but the Cybertruck will be the machine of my Dreams for this kind of work. I work in conjunction with Hawaii Wildlife Fund sometimes. They tackle the South Side of the Island, namely Kamilo Point, or internationally known as "Trash beach". I'm on the North Shore.

Updated: this was a ditch rollover crash tested Cybertruck

Holy crap-a-mole, when Elon said cold rolled, I had no Idea...

I would like the windshield to be armor glass but I'm thinking it's not because pitting would likely still happen and replacement of armor glass would suck worse than the 1.2k normal glass windsheilds.

I think it did pretty good all things considered. I think @Crissa mentioned that it was bending in the middle, but I think that what we are seeing is the area above the mirror where there is basically no support (and also no human head likely to be)

If we take a look at the pic again

to me it looks like the cross bar at the top above the drivers head is still pretty straight. although with there being no headliner its kinda hard to tell.

I would like to note that I've been team BAW since day 1 and its proving to be the ultimate in wiper based technology.

The bed is a big ole mess but meh. thats to be expected right?

Am I the only one excited about the cup holders in the back? Their shape is speaking to me

model y cupholder for comparison

I would wait for a final analysis by experts.

'NO EXPERT', however a 'picture tells a thousand words'.
I'm SATISFIED.

excuse the aside, but this is an impressive calling

do you have a website/donation page (I googled, but no certainty)?

…instances…. Without a source reference this statement has no weight. Provide a link or other verifiable reference.

For the record I think that tesla cars are amongst the safest cars out there and the cybertruck will be possibly the safest car ever. But I do think the lack of door handles is an unfortunate safety black mark in what is a nearly perfect car.

Tesla’s pop-out handles blamed for death after accident

https://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/...model-s-are-being-faulted-in-a-traffic-death/

Here are some facts about this case according to another article I read.

• The accident was more than 4 years ago. February 2019.
• The driver (a doctor) was drunk.
• He was speeding (79 mph) on a road (Flamingo Road).
• The handles would of popped out (as a backup), but the accident was too abrupt. (My guess is that the 12 volt battery disconnected when it slammed into the palm trees.) The next backup is to break a window and use the inside door handle, but the responding police couldn't break the window and the fire grew too big.

In my opinion the driver is to blame for his death. I'm not linking the article because it's an obvious smear piece against Tesla.

So I am sure this whole “door handles, to-do or not-to-do” discussion will continue to go full circle. That is because the world is full of outliers and no system is perfect. But the system works well for most situations. In my 3/3 significant auto wrecks, the doors required extraordinary leverage as the door handles no longer worked. The handles were useful to disengage the lock, I agree. But to open a door? No guarantee.

I rolled my first car, afterwards the door handle did nothing. It took multiple both-feet impacts to the door to get it open.
