This excellent youtube video by a critical cybertruck owner goes over every major body panel which is glued on.

It's clearly possible to rip off some of these panels by hand.

Kinda surprised they haven't started walking off the trucks given how easy some of them come off.

Most panels appear to be easily pealed off part of the way.

LMAO, Tesla owners have been saying all week that the reports of Cybertrucks rapidly disassembling themselves on the highway are fake news.

Turns out Cybertrucks are infact falling apart because the GLUE that holds the stainless steel panels in place can't survive winter temps 🫠.

Can't imagine any other car owners defending the car maker for their $100k+ ride falling the fuck apart every winter.

Morning, all

‘Starship’? The hubris is palpable, as the conglomeration of atmospheric debris nominally identified as a spacecraft has never once even achieved Low Earth Orbit.

Leon Musk’s euphemism #RUD or ‘Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly’ (aka ‘explosion’) is becoming both tired and inaccurate (unless RUD means ‘Regular Unscheduled Disassembly,’ and ‘Unscheduled’ is questionable also).

Mourning, all

Flying soon on a #Boeing 737-MAX equipped with LEAP-B turbofans?

Better hope any birdstrike on an engine hits the right not the left unit.

After the MCAS crashes you'd have hoped Boeing would've learned it's dangerous and deadly to ignore safety issues but regulatory oversight under Donald and Elon isn't going to protect us, given Leon's cavalier attitude to #SpaceX range safety (#Starship #RUD).

#Starship #RUD 💥 : A preliminary analysis indicated a leak of oxygen and fuel and that the problem could be quickly fixed. “Nothing so far suggests pushing next launch past next month.”
The rocket had been stretched several feet taller than earlier Starships — space for bigger tanks that hold 25 percent more propellant ⛽. nytimes.com/2025/01/16/science
