    Thanks!!! BTW - still have my 3 hatch. Still love it. Going strong at 205k! 4 sets of tires, 2 sets of brakes, muffler, 2 batteries and a serpentine belt have been my only issues..so far...knock on wood

    My car has no stalks and just a toggle switch for lights. Honestly I prefer it. Never bothered me. No auto cancel.

    The guy drives 300K a year, shit is going to break. Apparently this was one of the eariler model s that had issues with motors that were later figured out.

    other than the lemon motor, 4 battery packs sounds reasonable

    Apparently they were lasting 300K a pop. I think in by career of driving and riding motorcycles in 24 years I’m prob about 350K ish of miles.

    I would hazard to guess how many miles on bikes, about 350k ish, I put 150 on my Sv, another 100 on my vstrom, driving, between business and personal, I put 40-50k some years, when my son was playing youth hockey, he played 125 games one year between 2 leagues, tournaments, and filling in on a men's league (he was a goalie) I bet I put 30k that year just going to hockey games,. If I had to guess, after 55 years on the road, well over a million that would be only 18k/yr, I'd say 1.5 maybe 2.0 probably not

    but now in retirement, between my 2 trucks, AK550 & K-Pipe, 7500 miles ? total

    Rumors are floating around that the Cybertruck can literally become a short-term boat.

    With all that weight, not a lot you can do in that situation.

    Archimedes 101: its not the weight, its how much water the object will displace. Cybertruck looks wide enough to be a floater if no water is getting into it.

    All vehicles can become short term boats. The only question is seconds or minutes.

    That's exactly it. If the water stays out, then it's guaranteed to float. When the water gets in, the cyberturd density increases without displacement increasing, and it sinks

    wait...it doesn't have a truck sized self inflating life vest when it senses it senses being partially submerged?

    Only fills with foam in a crash; sea shells optional.

    I don't know why they didn't put a T badge on the cybertruck. Are they going to start a new brand?
