We'll know the Cybertruck is getting close to first deliveries when we see it acting as a boat and crossing from Boca Chica to SPI.

I had a feeling we could see this very very soon. They did a water test less than a week ago, and levelled the surrounding landscape.

Next test is the submarine test, right before the voyage from Miami to Cuba, just to assure seaworthiness. Go, go Cybertruck!

The Rivian is designed to wade up to 39” of water.

You just KNOW that Elon gave marching orders to his design/engineer team to beat that number and be best in class.

It won't wade much deeper than a Rivian before it starts to float, and as a boat it can wade an ocean of water. That's why it will be amphibious according to EM.

The proof is in how deep that wading trough is. It is more than twice as deep as the height of the CT.

We will see. Elon promised the truck will have tons of tech. I mean a lot.

RWS, possible steer-by-wire, super minimalist dash with no N/P/D or turn signal stalks, no door handles with approaching the door automatically popping open technology, etc.
