“Cybertruck will be waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat, so it can cross rivers, lakes & even seas that aren’t too choppy“
And you really believe this crap Musk is saying? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Yes. This isn't the first time he's claimed that Teslas are waterproof to some extent and the fact that this seems to be a design choice he's made now and he even gives a specific use case of traveling from Starbase to South Padre Island, I do believe him. I can't wait to see these things skiing along the channel. I'll admit the idea of a chunk of steel floating across a body of water seems a little crazy, but no less crazy than sending people to Mars. I believe he'll do that also. I do enjoy the doubters though. Hopefully they can talk some folks out of their preorders so I can get mine sooner.

It will need propulsion and steering in water though... maybe they can use the giant wiper blade as a rudder. Come to think of it, they could also make the wiper blade spin really fast and make it a flying car. Musk is a genius. I think we can see where this is going. There is no way CT can be road-legal in some (or most) countries so they make it a boat. Boats tend to be large, heavy, slow... perfect pivot.

Elon shared some details about how he thinks "boat mode" would work on the Cybertruck. His ideas range from an "electric propeller mounted on the tow hitch" to a "a creative wheel hub design that can generate meaningful thrust." I think the wheel hub design idea is probably enough to cross the 477 meter channel that Musk wants the Cybertruck to be able to cross, but seeing people stop and slap an electric propeller on their Cybertruck before crossing the ship channel would also be fun to watch. Let's hope Elon makes this happen, although I can't see myself ever conning a Cybertruck across a body of water. You never know... https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-cybertruck-boat-mode-details-elon-musk/

Guess he watches too much Top Gear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVjo6YOT3ZgLocal authorities are going to be drooling over the amount of money in fines they are going to make when people put a vehicle in the water that does not meet coast guard safety standards and does not have the appropriate safety equipment on board. Does not matter if it's a cybertruck or a bunch of logs tied together to make a raft once it's above a certain size and weight and is floating in open water you better have a hull number, life vests, flares and so on. And don't forget the proof that you took a boater safety class. *I* got dinged in AZ helping a friend launch his boat at Salt River because he pulled the truck away and I looped the boat to shore without loading the vests and safety equipment. The only thing that saved me was the fact that I could whip out my NY boater safety card followed by some jagoff in a jet ski that came whipping by with a radio so loud I think they heard it Phoenix so he decided to stop yelling at me and take it out on him. -Dave

This talk about props and hubs sounds like they're thinking of selling a "boat package" for $25k extra and as part of that they could throw in some life vests too. But I would like to see an insurance quote on a vehicle that can "briefly" serve as a boat LOL The idea is dead in the water, pun intended, like most of Musk's stoned tweets, but CT desperately needs PR now that actual electric trucks are on sale already.

![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) . I think Elon should just concentrate on making a viable vehicle first without all this pie in the sky nonsense which will only delay the truck. Nobody needs a car that's also a boat but if he wants to waste time on that it's something he can think about as another addition after the actual truck is ready, but it's obviously just a fantasy at this point and he needs to concentrate on making sure the truck isn't one too. All he needs to do is get this thing road legal and in production and it's a mega win for him just as long as the it's not ludicrously priced so much so that nobody actually buys the thing.

I don’t think anyone is planning to use a cybertruck as a boat. It’s just a cool feature that shows once again how far ahead of the competition Tesla is. What I do think it will be good for is situations where a little water can leave you stranded or at the risk of paying high fees. Where I live it isn’t uncommon for roads to be impassable in heavy rainstorms because the roads weren’t meant to handle drainage well due to the lack of rain year round. They even have a law called the stupid motorist law for vehicles that get stuck in washed out roads. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stupid_motorist_lawWith a cybertruck, not only will this law not be a concern to your pocketbook, but not being stranded may save the lives of your family in an emergency. If Elon’s trolling you too hard with this latest proclamation, just wait til he starts touting it’s ability to handle bioweapon attacks. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Competition: makes and sells electric pickup trucks Elon: tweets about an electric pickup truck that can also be a boat even though no one is planning to use it as a boat Yeah I don't think that's "ahead". If I tweet about a space ship slash submarine, that doesn't make me "ahead" of SpaceX.

With the giga press being delivered to the newly constructed Texas facility, it’s only a matter of time now until Tesla is able to produce the most innovative vehicle since the Model T. Such a massive engineering advancement, only forward thinking individuals can even grasp what innovation is occurring. The article goes into a bit of detail about what a beast of a machine the giga press is. This was the final piece of the puzzle for the Texas factory and they’re now expecting production to only be a few months away. They have so many preorders though, I think a realistic date for myself to be behind the wheel of one of these beauties is probably late 2024. https://insideevs.com/news/615413/idra-9000-ton-giga-press-tesla-cybertruck/amp/

Competition: makes and sells electric pickup trucks Elon: tweets about an electric pickup truck that can also be a boat even though no one is planning to use it as a boat
Did you know that water and air reacts with batteries used in this electric cars and it acts almost as fuel for lithium and it created big explosions, you can even test this yourself with opening small lithium batteries and putting them in water inside. Now you can only imagine what would happen if water from this fake Tesla truck-boat-submarine gets inside this huge battery packs. Things things are hazard and dangerous for everyone who drives in them, they should not allow kids to be inside. Tesla Car Fire Compilation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRFcJx7dN_IThis one was burning for days, they spent 1500 gallons of water and it was still burning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEwD29RoDy0It's even worse with salt water... Exploding electric cars after hurricane! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Scc9LFZOFYASomeone has to tell Elon Musk to test drive his new truck in sea water ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Elon Musk had a little something to say about the Cybertruck today. He said the Cybertruck is something special that comes along once in a long while. I still say people aren’t familiar enough with the advancements in this vehicle that sets it apart. I think when these start hitting the road people are going to freak out. There just isn’t enough education on why it is shaped like it is. Too many people don’t get it yet. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1593340416077615105

The only thing with the design of it, it's quite possible that it doesn't pass safety regulations in many of the countries. Seems like the US will be fine, but it was pulled from the UK for a reason, and I imagine it's to do with the design of it. Protection is all well, and good for the driver/passengers, but colliding with one of these is going to devastate any other car. So, unless they come up with another version for the EU to pass safety regulations, I doubt this is going to be a reality in the UK.

Than how are all the trucks getting passed safety regulations? I am not proposing anyone should buy any Tesla vehicles that are basically self-destructive time bombs on wheels. This is what recently happened with ''safu'' shaped Tesla vehicle in China that resulted in killing of two people after driver lost control with auto-pilot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBWkNVoqoCs

So, unless they come up with another version for the EU to pass safety regulations, I doubt this is going to be a reality in the UK. I don't think it was ever confirmed why the pre-order was pulled from the UK but the reasons why was always just internet chatter and rumour. At the current state it probably shouldn't be up for any pre-order given that there's no set in stone production date and it could and likely will be vastly different from the prototypes. I think the pre-order thing was more of a publicity stunt and to garner hype rather than a genuine pre-order anyway. I'd bet half of the people who actually put the $100 down probably wouldn't have gone through with the actual purchase given the deposit was refundable as well.

Than how are all the trucks getting passed safety regulations? Trucks are allowed there's just more stringent safety standards over here. I think it's more to do with things like crumple zones etc and given the car is still essentially a prototype I'm not sure how people know how safe or what standards it will or wont pass etc so it was all just chatter. I thought I read somewhere that bullbars were banned in the UK but after a quick search it seems that's in fact not true, so if they're allowed along with other trucks there are surely some ways to make it work. It still might be ok anyway. Either way I'm sure Elon could come up with a way to make an EU compliant one. He's said the truck will be smaller than the original designs and that was probably one of the biggest issues for Europe as the roads are just too small over here.

There are some unsubstantiated claims going around on Twitter that Tesla will be handmaking and delivering 30 trucks next month. No idea if this is true or not but I’d believe it just so Elon could say he was right when he said end of this year they’d start delivering. Most analysts are thinking it will be summer before any meaningful number of trucks are being produced. I still think it will likely be the second half of 2024 before I get my hands on one.

I must say that you are one hell of a patient being, paying for a thing worth thousands of dollars and not having it for 2 years will be frustrating if I was me, I might even not do it at all 😂, that is, I would prefer to buy and drive it home immediately, but I guess this is why we are all different in our different ways. Though from all I've heard and read about the tesla cyber truck, it is easy to predict that the wait will be sure worth it, and if I had the money, I would have love to place an order too so we wait together.. But anyways, I wish you good luck and I will be following and waiting for your review of the truck when you finally get it - congratulations in advance mate.

this is awesome lol, can't wait to see it! congrats! ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Thanks guys. As this thread continues to age I can't escape the reality that time stops for no man and just hope that with all the calamity in the world I can live long enough to own one of these bad boys. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Today did bring a cool new Cybertruck rumor. There are people noticing a drawing of a 2-door Cybertruck at Tesla's museum exhibit and putting that together with comments from Elon about a smaller Cybertruck making sense in the future are now sure that a 2-door Cybertruck is in the works. You can read the comments and see pictures of the 2-door Cybertruck drawing using the below link. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-two-door-cybertruck-design-photo/

The Tesla Cybertruck aesthetic is definitely not one-size fits all. It's a unique and eye-catching, but personally I only admire them if someone else is driving it. Its way out there--like driving around your personality.
