Tesla Reveals the CyberTruck with a slight glitch

What's up guys so last night Tesla release their cyber truck and man that thing looks crazy.Crazy good !

It kind of looks like something that you would see out of the Mad Max movie. A Futuristic type pickup truck that is sure to turn heads Wherever You Go With.It so let's go ahead and get into some of the specs.

So one of the first things I wanted to mention is the fact that the truck has a 100 cubic foot bed almost double the storage of the Ford F150  that's huge. 
The bed can also be locked and when closed discover is strong enough so that you can stand on it.

It also has storage space in the form of an under bed Frunk, the sail pillars as well as storage underneath the second row of seats. Which I may also take the time to note here that the truck seats 6 people.


The towing capacity of the truck is 14,000 lbs which is actually 75% more than the towing capacity of the Ford F-150 ( the number one selling truck in the world ) which has a max towing capacity of 8000 lbs.

Other amenities include a 17-inch touchscreen that's fully customizable.

An on board power supply so you can plug-in your equipment if you're in construction you know saws drills that type of stuff as well as an onboard air compressor. Feature that will certainly appeal to  the Working Man.

The truck is also equipped with a adaptable air suspension and the door bed actually can slide down to the floor and extend as a ramp so that you can transport items like an ATV or  a dirt bike by just riding the ATV all the way up the ramp into the bed of the truck and closing the back door.

So that's the good news now for the questionable stuff.

During the demonstration video last night of the Cyber truck by Elon Musk Tesla's CEO. He touted that the Cyber truck has bulletproof and shatterproof glass he also stated that the panels on the truck were made from a special type of reinforced steel which would be used in their SpaceX crafts.

 At which point  he had a assistant hit the side of the truck with a sledgehammer and it did not seem to do any damage.
Next he proceeded to have the assistant  throw a steel ball at the glass to prove it was shatterproof and well... it shattered.

The ball did not go through the glass so I did not penetrate, but it did act like a normal bullet proof glass would. It shattered as it absorbed the impact. Musk look shocked.

This did not translate well with the media and news reports suggest this is a huge concern for consumers and investors alike. As a result, today Tesla stock is down 6%
