The Cybertruck is NOT a "Pickup Truck". So what is it?

[Ogre]

It goes on land.

It swims.

It works hard and carries things.

Wait until Joe Public catches a CT crossing a small body of water demonstrating its ability to float for a short period of time.

No potato cameras allowed!

There is precedence for using that name.
De Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver float plane.
There are even versions of the float plane with electric propulsion instead of ICE.

I'll just be driving and using it, while letting naysayers or others on the side lines worry about whatever they want to call it. Tesla's already calling it a Cybertruck. I won't need anyone else's armchair interpretations for a product name. They can worry about what to call it. I'll just continue to enjoy owning it.

I was thinking:

DUAL EV — Durable Universal All-Terrain Electric Vehicle (pronounced "Do-All EV")

or

eADAPT — electric All-Terrain Durable All-Purpose Truck (pronounced "Adapt")

2nd one is good. eADAPT — electric All-Terrain Durable All-Purpose Truck (pronounced "Adapt")

I think it'd end up pronounced ee-dap-tuh, or ee-dap, tho.
