Didn’t say that at all. Using a bike rack or the tailgate is actually the most convenient way to transport bikes in all my years of riding. And while it’s not 100% secure (nothing is), the gear guard cables give you enough time to stop and go to the bathroom.

Dumping your bike in the bed of your fugly and dysfunctional truck because the tailgate is unusable and bike racks aren’t an option only highlights again how many design failures it comes with.

Keep spinning.

I didn't say more conveniently, I said more securely. Remember, the subject that began this part of the discussion was transporting $10K mountain bikes. I would say if the expensive high-end bikes are out of sight, that is the most secure way to store them.

Don't get me wrong, any vehicle would work, I was asking you specifically about security since you had claimed your 1996 Subaru could keep them inside and out of the weather.

I am curious why you think the Cybertruck tailgate is "unusable". I don't see the difference between the Cybertruck tailgate and an F-150 or Rivian tailgate in terms of transporting mountain bikes (except the Cybertruck tailgate is made from hardened unpainted stainless, giving less chance for damage when hanging bikes on it.

I'm similarly curious why you think bike racks aren't another option for the Cybertruck. People have already set up hitch mounted bike racks as well as traditional rack mounted bike racks on top of Cybertruck's bed. The options are endless, but you keep pretending the Cybertruck is such a design failure it can't do these things.

I think I'm getting trolled here but wanted to ask to be sure. Why is the Cybertruck non-functional for transporting bikes?

Apparently this is how the $3000 tesla tent gets stored. Wonder if a bike would still fit under the cover with this there. Certainly wouldn't be able to hang them over the tailgate.

Bikes surely won't fit after you have Tesla install the 2000 lb "range extender" battery in the bed to get you the range they promised, and then your spare tire. I guess there is always the back seat...

I mean, it kinda makes sense to have the tent up high like that, because below it would be the battery extender pack...

But no, that CT is still one of the dumbest... or is that dumpsterest, thing ever.
The pricing on the market even reflects it, with a new Low selling price on BAT of 103k.

I wasn‘t going to watch the video but your comment made me, and I’m glad I did. Totally worth watching, thanks!
edit: deleted leftover text from a different reply.

CT will outsell R1T by more than 5:1 margin. I judge dumbness based on sales number. ?

Prove it by recreating the scene with your own personal Cybertrucks.
I cant believe those 2... uhhh... Trolls? yea Trolls.. Are still here. I wish they would take the hint. I guess I am lucky I have em on ignore, and cant even see them anymore. Makes the threads so much nicer, and cleaner.

I am 99.9% sure they are the same person. No cult has ever been this successful in pushing the exact same messaging out through a group of people not sharing the same brain.
