Don’t waste it on the car and use it on the nazi driving the car (but first, verify that they are, indeed, a nazi, some might have gotten it before the elon’s nazi reveal)
checks for the “I bought this before I knew Elon was a piece of shit” bumper sticker
Yeah, if they’re merely morons you gotta just throw em a thumbs down
At least they didn’t try shooting through the bulletproof windows. They woulda killed the driver.
Obligatory… The Cyber truck is not rated as bullet proof. This footage was most likely produced with cartridges that have just enough gun powder to cycle the gun’s action. Actual bulletproof vehicles are way more expensive.
Didnt Aiden Ross shoot his with a 9mm? Like hes a dumbass but he actually gave good data on that one.
This footage was most likely produced with cartridges that have just enough gun powder to cycle the gun’s action.
Frankly, it’s probably not even that much. They probably used a bolt action and really light powder loads. I’d say maybe it’s a .22 but the dents look big for that.
Edit: Someone else posted this a JerryRigEverything video- it apparently stops .22 and 9mm. I’m pretty surprised.
Looking it up, the doors are 1.8mm steel. At a 90 degree angle that’s enough to stop underpowered 9mm rounds reliably. It will stop most normal rounds fired at it, and especially start letting a lot through in areas with repeated stress. The second you hot load a round, use a heavy projectile or any kind of round with more potential than standard FMJ it’s all going through.
And that has to be the right kind of steel too. Which is more expensive. So yeah I’m pretty sure they used underpowered rounds at the very least to create this visual.
Pellet gun dude
Good enough to run over all the liberal protestors!
Can conform cyber truck is not bulletproof. It didnt stop anything that we shot at. It.
“Competinion” in the EU are shitting themselves laughing at this joke of a vehicle.
Even us in America. This is a joke of a car made by a joke of a person.
Why the fuck would 99% of people need to think about bullets hitting their car?
Sneezes in American.
When in America…

At this point, do any companies seriously see the cybertruck as “competition”?
Nobody wants to replicate or compete against the Cybertruck directly, but it is the first production car to implement several key technologies like steer by wire a 48v low voltage system rather than traditional 12v one. Tesla has had a lot longer to develop these than the competition, but ultimately Elon’s stupid design and love affair with Trump mean Tesla won’t succeed commercially from these innovations.
SAAB. Maybe.
Sorry, I don’t see cybertrucks getting off the ground.
Actually, that damage happened because I’m allergic to bullshit and I sneezed on it.
The sheer speed of winds coming out of your nose is quite a environmental disaster.
So I’ve been told.
it’d be a neat idea if cars actually regularly had to interact with projectiles! y’know what cars DO have to interact ALL THE TIME?
water.
In fact, when they do interact with other projectiles, those projectiles are other cars. But I guess no one knew crumple zones could be so complicated.
Why the fuck would someone be deluded enough to think this attribute of a vehicle is important enough for any established manufacturer to even give it the courtesy of a thought.
Adding something nobody asked for, for no reason, that nobody would ever be in a situation to find it useful only underscores just how impulsive and idiotic of a poseur Musk is. Though, I guess if I was some Nazi cunt, I might add “bullet-resistant transportation” to my list of requirements too.
Lol Luigi proof doors but not windows.
One of the many problems with our time is people say shit like this just to get reactions now. Irony is dead.
I don’t know how anyone thinks buying a Tesla, and in any way supporting the guy supporting the Nazis in the EU, is acceptable.
Other nazis and those who won’t admit they are nazis are okay with it.
This ☝️. Even buying a BMW, VW, or Porsche (former Nazi conspirators) probably isn’t as bad as buying a Tesla from a current-day Nazi
This is what I don’t get. BMW, VW, and Porsche are all companies that supported the Nazis. Assuming that 99% of all employees at those companies when they supported the Nazis are no longer working there, what does it matter that they supported the Nazis? BMW, VW, and Porsche aren’t a real person each. There’s no Mr. BMW going into a secret mountain lair snickering while rubbing their hands together. It’s really just a name for an economic system. The people all change like the boards on the ship of Theseus. And it wasn’t BMW’s, VW’s, or Porsche’s fault for not having just ethics. The entire country was taken over by Nazi’s. Surely the people that resisted were removed or punished. Maybe some employees pulled a Schindler and protected people as best they could. Others tried that CIA sabotage manual shit that’s hilarious. Some were all about Nazis. But, none of those people are there anymore in any effectual number. In other words, BMW is just a name as I understand it. Is there something I’m missing? Do we need to rename it to something else so that suddenly the root essence that supported the Nazi’s is removed? While we’re at it, do we need to rename Germany/Deutchland or shame them until they change their name?
I think it should depend on the company at the time of the purchase, but that the company is still responsible for their branding.
Although, I also think the real answer is that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism and any outrage is being misplaced onto a company instead of the system that caused it.
I agree with many of your points. My last car was a BMW and I currently drive an Audi. This article from 2022 about David de Jong’s book Nazi Billionaires goes into pretty good depth about this
I mean, aim for the windows?
Where people’s heads and hearts are? That doesn’t seem fair.
I wonder what a Super soaker full of hydrogen peroxide would do. I’m assuming it would rust like hell, but maybe not
Imagine making a social media account just to rusty trombone a corporation
There’s even a Lemmy user that’s done that Elon musketeers or something
This looks more like desperation. An “investor” desperately trying to keep themselves afloat.
My mother in laws car looked like that after a heavy hail storm, this is not a gun being used lol. What a pathetic publicity stunt.
They re did that stunt at release. They changed it up to gingerly throwing a tennis ball instead.
Everyone should watch the Top Gear Hilux episodes, and ask if a Cybertruck could go through that.
Some YouTubers have beaten up more modern trucks too.
Some youtuber got a wankpanzer and, I think, an f150 to do “durability tests” with. Since the actual point is to create internet content, and the creator might kinda like elon for some reason, it’s obvious that the tests and their results are ridiculous. It’s like:
“Oh, no! The cybertruck’s frame snapped off! There goes your trailer! The air suspension broke! The stupid tablet became a disco party of red warnings! …but the f150 couldn’t jump 5 feet into the air, and also the door has a hole in it from when we used explosives, issues which the cybertruck doesn’t have. So they’re neck and neck, really.”
Yeah I saw that one, TBH that guy has major ADHD (which I can sympathize with).
