Cybertruck dashboard apparently has no real airbags and is composed of a solid block of marble.
"this is a paper composite material... used for countertops in industrial kitchens." It's actually imitation stone.
I know that stuff and it's probably harder than actual marble.
Is that because normal marble would like fracture and split into pieces?
The crumple zone is your skull
lol, The Cybertruck truly is the vehicle of the future! The auto-driver can slam you into stationary objects, the solid slab dashboard can cause fatal head trauma, the battery can cremate the remains, and it can even be used as a tasteful mausoleum for your receptacle after the fact. That's just smart design!
I don’t see any vents. Imagine buying a luxury vehicle with no driver AC in of the climate crisis.
No AC, no airbags
We're gonna find out it has no power steering and no anti-lock breaks when it comes out
It’s fake news. I shoulda edited, but yeah it has both apparently and it’s also made of paper composite or something.
People really ought to be required to label misinfo before posting it tbh.
It's green!
Unstoppable Force (truck) meets Immovable Object (ego)
I now 100% support Elon Musk's biggest fans driving Cybertrucks at high speeds.
He showed up to Twitter his first day with a sink. Dude gets a lot of inspiration by getting blazed and standing in the center of his kitchen for two hours. I can relate
Cool, now I can do meal prep on the go. Chop them veggies on the way home from work.
"The cybertruck has no airbags"
Idiot car designed by a dogbrained failson
"The dashboard is solid marble"
Jesus Christ it doesn't get any more stupid
"It's fake marble"
Fuck off...
Cybertruck comes with free tombstone, just needs to be engraved with your visage in an automated high speed collision. A unique artwork for your loved ones to remember you by made on demand, just-in-time. It's the peak of logistical sophistication.
At least the paramadics who have to scoop up my brain matter and skull fragments will think it looks like something out of a scifi
Not to kill the mood, but that looks like the early concept render, a lot of concepts look impractical and illegal to build.
The cyber truck still looks mostly impractical and illegal to build but I think it has a real dash now.

bro have you even seen 99.8% of the trucks on the road today
I mean more "pointed dashbaord that looks cool but doubles at a scalping device" vs "CAFE regulations means big truck don't count, make er bigger".
Who keeps buying these pieces of trash over 2009 Toyota Camrys?
With the used car market like it is? An ‘09 Toyota Camry is practically a luxury car
Who keeps buying these pieces of trash over 1987 Toyota HiLux?
fixed
For the cybertruck it's only die-hard Musk fans. Even people I know who own teslas think it looks like shit.

Death to America
Since 1999 it's been federal law that front driver and passenger sides of vehicles have airbags.
So no. There's airbags there coming out of someplace.
Companies break the law all the time. You'll recall VW got nailed recently for lying about their emissions, and whole industries (AirBnb, Uber, and all derivatives) have been built on flagrantly ignoring the law.
Between the endless examples of corporate crimes and the obvious financial incentives to keep doing them, the presumption should be that every company is breaking the law.
You never know, Musk might have ordered his engineers to "replace the airbags with fart noises 😂🤣" despite every single one of his engineers telling him it's a bad idea.
If it doesn't, there's an extremely funny scenario where Tesla tries to sell it as an off-road vehicle, which don't have the safety requirements, but can't be issued a plate in thr majority of US states.
They could deploy uselessly from the ceiling or something and still meet the regulation of "being installed"
Why are you using the word "apparently" @Elon_Musk@hexbear.net ? Isn't it your car? Shouldn't you know this?

That imitation stone is also fucking killing people who have to cut it. Capitalism strikes again!
Twice the amount, and the industry is lacking in safety standards. Yes granite is bad, and any silica exposure is bad. The problem is that imitation stone is cheaper and the companies selling it just don't care about the health and safety of the laborers tasked with cutting it.
