Bulletproof? Is it waterproof? Ts&Cs say: ‘Failure to put Cybertruck in Car Wash Mode may result in damage’
“To prevent damage to the exterior, immediately remove corrosive substances (such as grease, oil, bird droppings, tree resin, dead insects, tar spots, road salt, industrial fallout, etc.),”
Not washing it could fuck it up. Got it.
“CAUTION Failure to put Cybertruck in Car Wash Mode may result in damage (for example, to the charge port or windshield wipers). Damage caused by car washes is not covered by the warranty.”
Also washing it could fuck it up.
What does car wash mode do?
It folds the mirrors in and puts the car in neutral. Stuff like that.
So things normal people do to normal cars but with extra steps and Elon.
Have you seen other people in a car wash? Park, reverse, drive but they start holding the brakes when the track pulls them along, leaving antennas up, not closing windows, opening fucking doors… A vast majority of the human population is some level of braindead.
Fuck me, I’ve seen someone pull up into a manual car wash bay, open all their doors, and wash the INSIDE of their car. This was not a washable interior like a Jeep Wrangler or something, it was a typical sedan with carpeted floors and cloth seats.
And these people (theoretically) are licensed to drive, right next to you.
Yeah, but the car still ran afterwards.
I don’t know about the Cybertruck or its charging port, but cars do have rain sensors to activate the wipers automatically when it rains. Car wash mode likely turns those sensors off to prevent damage to the wipers.
It must be something more substantial in this case, tearing the windshield wiper off wouldn’t brick the truck
Water gets into the body, which lacks fluid drains and accumulates water, which can potentially reach wiring.
I seriously don’t understand how this could be possible. How does the car manage rain water?
I don’t think it’s meant to be driven in the rain
I don’t think it’s meant to be driven.
I mean… It’s not even meant to be a vehicle, tbh. It’s an ego trip, status symbol, or virtue signal (pick up to 3) in the form of a vehicle.
The part where it can propel itself and it’s occupants from place to place is, in fact, a bonus feature.
Or maybe it does, who knows. It’s the Cybertruck afterall

Can we just say that Cybertruck is basically a sum of everything wrong with right wing wackos?
“Look at me, I’m a badass, driving around in a badass vehicle, unlike you filthy libruls. … Aww shucks! There’s road salt! And my accelerator pedal just fell off wtf. …OH NO! A LITTLE WATER TOO! Anything but that!”
Oh no, WATER, how did they know it was one of my many, many weaknesses!
This is truly the Signs of automobiles
I haven’t seen Maddox in years! That was a memory trip.
