I also mentioned how Elon got a bit embarrassed at the launch when its supposedly shatter-proof windows shattered.
Well, according to the BBC, that hasn't put off nearly 150000 people from ordering one.
Earliest speculation for the first deliveries are pointing at the end of 2021. Ha "pointing" - see what I did there?
And am I alone in thinking it won't look anything like what has been shown so far?
The A-Pillars mean you won't be able to see around corners at junctions.
And the pointy bits are a pedestrian health-and-safety nightmare.
And what's with the name "Cybertruck" - is it because of the success of the Jeep Cyberman?
Little Doctor Who reference for you there.
Meanwhile, the Cybertruck is claimed to have “ultra-hard 30X cold-rolled stainless steel” said to be bulletproof for up to 9mm rounds. Well it is going on sale in America.
The Cybertruck comes in three motor configurations, rear-wheel drive, 4-wheel drive and top of the range, triple-motored "Plaid". Don't know what the third motor does or how they are pronouncing "plaid". Is it plad as in what we would call tartan and what is usually a euphemism for boring?
Or is it plied as in the Welsh world for party (political not fancy-dress).
Talking of 4x4s and politics:
