Just saw 2 Cybertruck delivered by Semi in Fremont.
My favourite thing about these fucking shitheaps is the anisotropy of the different panels. A massive giveaway that the build quality and attention is fucking garbage.
See how the reflections on the doors travel in different directions - essentially, thats anisotropy. Brushed metal (in this case) has a direction in which it has been treated, so the reflections and light travel along that surface direction. Mismatch those and it sticks out a mile. It’s one of the first things you sort on this type of fabrication - even DeLorean had it covered in the 80’s. Paint jobs are all done in one direction to prevent this effect from appearing.
How anyone can say anything positive about this is beyond me.
“you just don’t understand how decades of improvement in crumple zones and saving lives was actually a bad thing, cars should be steel tanks that don’t handle physics at all, going back at 1960s car design is true forward thinking innovation.”
Elon doesn’t understand physics of car crashes so he sure as fuck didn’t do the actual work to make rockets, he paid people to create his drawings from when he was 10.
decades of improvement in crumple zones and saving lives
This auto industry cope is basically also bullshit. Cars generally have gotten larger and more dangerous for anyone not in a car, or even not in a new car.
What’s the explanation for the literal ducttape
The wheels are so badly mismatched to the design of the body. I guess the trucks are still in pre-/alpha
