who spends time thinking about how badass he'd be in various kinetic engagements.Elon really is the king of dumb guys that peaked in high school.
The Cybertruck will protect you from most muzzleloader fire, but watch out for the enemy 12-pounders
The cybertruck will stop enemy crossbow bolts but beware the arquebusiers
The car is bullet proof except for where someone would aim their bullets normally
And only if they're nice enough to use subsonic ammo lmao
WATASHI NO .300 BLK
Also, not bulletproof to any modern firearm
Lol, the reason he specifies a tommy gun is because it's .45 caliber, and standard 45 ammo is subsonic by default. It will literally only stop that, a standard 9mm will go right through. And knowing the cybertruck, I wouldn't be surprised if they just shot it with a 45 handgun and decided "yup, it stops .45" and never actually tested it out of a longer barrel.
This is not fiction.
The surest mark of the bullshitter
Turning a cybertruck into swiss cheese mag dumping 50 rounds of 5.7x28mm out of a P90 for trve kvlt cybërpvnk cred
That stood out to me too...most guns and ammunition are NOT subsonic because bullets traveling faster than the speed of sound is what makes them effective. Like okay neat your truck can stop a BB gun. But you won't even hear the shot when an M2010 round goes through your door and out the other side.
I just assumed it was a reference to Sonny getting killed in the Godfather. But of course they shoot through the windows in that scene anyway.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
me when the quality automobile i purchased from Tesla Motors is in fact impervious to bullets fired from a submachine gun. (This will keep me safe in my planned future vacation to visit Chicago in 1929 in my fucking time machine that can take my fucking car with me)

You joke, but the cybertruck has the same "I fucking love science" techbro vibes as the delorian, the only car to have ever been used for time travel.
I imagine the fumes from a lithium fire could cause one to hallucinate that they're traveling through time in the inevitable event the truck spontaneously combusts.
It would be the perfect vehicle for bootlegging if only it had range, reliability, hauling capacity, and didn't stick out like a sore thumb!
Modern remake of Smokey and the Bandit with cybertrucks and the beer run is over in 20 minutes after the bandit has to recharge, and the other 70 minutes of the movie are them being needlessly brutalized by the police
You can probably also identify them reliably even without the license plate just by looking at the discoloration and corrosion patterns on the panels.
So it would be perfect, apart from the fact that it’s not perfect.
Also, I'm pretty sure it's not even resistant to subsonic projectiles
Couple of CyberTruck bros shot up their trucks to prove it and ended up ruining them
I can't figure out why people are being so dense about it. The sheets used for the door on the production vehicles are 14ga (1.8mm thick) 301 stainless steel. Some of the original prototypes used 3mm thick, which would approach some level of effectiveness against handgun ammo. But because that just makes the whole truck heavy as fuck for no reason, they did the obvious thing, which was to just use thinner, non-bullet-proof steel.
I assumed it definitely isn't. Not because I've seen those videos, but it's just safe to assume
is full of shit.
Oh hell yes! Some chud is absolutely going to film himself "proving" this, and I am here for it
80% of those videos look like the guy has never fired a gun in his life and is a little scared of it
Which normally would be whatever, who cares, but these are people who jack themselves off over the 2nd ammendment
I imagine
hiding in the brush fire with a thompson waiting for a cyberstuck to pull up."I'm gonna give you to the count of ten to get your ugly, chrome, no good truck off my property... before I pump your guts full of led...."
The kinds of people who are into this shit are the same kinds of people who live in the quietest suburb you can think of, keep a loaded gun on their bedside table, and tell everyone that will listen about how safe they are because they do it and how stupid you are for not doing it.
You can take the man out of South Africa, but you can't take South Africa out of the man.

Future Headline: Cybertruck Owner Apologizes for Incident at Symphony
More like nyah~ amirite? 😽
Why does he say “non-zero”…why just say that there’s risk?
It sounds more
that way
the Cybertruck manual instructs you to tactically deploy your vehicle in a Non-Zero Looting scenario so as to effect a maximum kinetic response to the afformentioned looters within the parameters if they attempt to engage your vehicle without owner permission.
the Cybertruck was designed to effortlessly run over as many children and minorities as possible, without being slowed, during any perceived engagement with hostile pedestrians and will deliver you safely to the nearest dispenser for soothing treats
So it'll protect me from bullets aimed at my sides but my head and neck are wide open?
Tesla can't be shot with a Chicago typewriter... It's Lucky Lucianover...
