Florida man strikes again.
I am betting it was RivanRunner or RivianHead, so they could blame some Rivian owner.. Cause thats just how they role...

Sorry? ?‍♂
Sorry... Not sorry. I mean, I wouldnt park some 5-6 million (or more) dollars worth of vehicles in a location, and not have Private Security on hand.

They’ll likely just sell those full price with a factory wrap.

Today’s announcements; CT run rate 1500 per week, even with 20k premium, without FSD. Consumers are voting with their wallet; Projected over 70K + yearly volume!
What is R1T run rate now??

And Elon is approved for the the highest compensation in the history by overwhelming majority of investors. They must be I am sure they are all fanboys lol.
CT weekly run rate is 650.

Ha, no. They cleaned it off the next day using solvents. Don't try this on a Rivian, you would do about $8K in paint damage:

Here's a good Cybertruck laugh, this guy thought he could get away with hauling 5000 lbs. (2.5 tons) of mostly concrete mix in the bed of his Cybertruck:



















































Oh, wait! It looks like it worked! Don't try that in your Rivian "truck", it would be an expensive mistake!

And of course you have no idea if it damaged the truck or not by doubling the payload capacity, do you? Yet here you are again…

Not sure why overloading your vehicle to a dangerous degree is some kind of a gotcha.

Elon still won't f*ck you...you know this right?
I really hope you and Rivian Head realize you look incredibly sad, pathetic, and down right cultish here. This isn't about the rest of us, its about you. It's a pathetic look.

Just ignore both of those troll accounts starting with Rivian. They aren’t worth your time. Interacting with them only gives them the attention they want but don’t deserve. Let them shout their cult nonsense into a void.

Payload ratings are there for a reason, but sure, double it up like a clown, and see what happens. 19:05 onward. Just because it can, doesn't mean it will over a long distance, or over a harsh bump.

The load in the R1T was under 3000 lbs. and never exceeded 15 mph. Corey was smart enough not to try 5000 lbs. of Quickrete like the Cybertruck hauled from Home Depot to the jobsite.

But are you calling Corey a clown for almost doubling up the R1T's payload? Or is it only a clown move if you are getting real work done building an actual patio?

Hint: One is a publicity stunt, and one is how you pay your employees and put food on the table.

Who said 5000 lbs. in the Cybertruck was dangerous? The roads are probably level and smooth between home Depot and the jobsite. I loaded my Cybertruck right up to its maximum GVWR and drove down a steep, twisty 12% grade that people in regular cars get high centered on regularly (really rugged) and the Cybertruck handled the steep grade and big potholes and ruts almost like the 2500 lb. load didn't exist. I could barely tell I had a load, that's how rigid the Cybertruck's chassis is. And the suspension was amazing, the load didn't even jostle out of position on the most rugged sections. This is 21 rounds of heavy, wet wood, averaging 110 lbs. each:

So yeah, you would need two fully loaded R1T's to pack this load (even with two R1T's you would have trouble fitting 11 rounds in the bed).

I can see why the "Cybertruck Laugh of the Day" thread exists. Because the Cybertruck makes R1T owners feel so insecure they have to cut it down, based mostly on superficial qualities like looks, to make themselves feel better about their trucks. It never fully satisfies their insecurities about their own truck, so they have to keep doing it repeatedly, it's like it's a rite of passage for Rivian owners.

I'm all for supporting all EVs that are helping humanity transition away from oil, but people here feel the need to cut down any EV truck that's more capable than theirs, because they can't handle the thought that there's a tougher truck out there, one that's bigger and stronger, more capable and harder to damage, than the truck they bought. Sad.

Two similar circumstances of doubling or more, the payload of the respective vehicles, one is about to be disassembled to its smallest components, and was driven around the building/parking lot. The other was driven likely on a highway around others at speed with no thought other than "this looks cool" so tell me, which exactly is the publicity stunt?

Getting "real work done" in this case is calling a concrete ready mix truck to place the concrete, rather than mixing a pallet of quickcrete a bag at a time. And in most cases cheaper.
