Reply by @KralikLj: Hell boy that would fit in a bicycle. Way more carbon free than that wankpanzer. (image of cargo bicycle with several bags of soil strapped to the front)
One drove by us at the end of a hike yesterday and I literally thought.. "what the fuck is.. oh - oh wait is that their.. ugh, oh no. Fuck this- fuck this guy driving. Hey buddy you look like a jackass fuck your Nazi CEO funding bullshit pedestrian murdering truck."
Lol, I don't know about a bicycle but I routinely toss six bags of dirt in the back of my Honda Accord and my ex- boss has a trailer for his Corolla.
Also, presumably he got it to the checkout at the store in a grocery cart, he (I am making an assumption here that this is a dude) has to know you don't need a truck to move it.
my wagon can definitely carry that, without the risk of slicing off pedestrians' faces in an accident, too.
Thankful to have Cybertruck
Isn't that the most basic feature of a car?
Reminds me of the people thankful for Facebook so they can talk to friends, when what enabled really was the Internet and Facebook just created an app incompatible with any existing messaging standard.
Anything I can fit in my Miata is not a ‘big load’. Although there are always the people that like to go above and beyond…
I have an album of collected photos of people transporting goofy/large stuff in Miata’s.
Oh god, those poor exhaust pipes... and side panels...
I'm in the unfortunate position of not living in a place to practically use that bicycle, and being unable to afford a cybertruck. I wouldn't buy one, even if I could afford it, but I'd like to be in that position.
tbh such kind of bicycle will hardly be practical anywhere
Yeah you’d want it on a trailer or side bags. Maybe a handlebar box. It’s definitely doable. I saw multiple bikes tonight that could do it at the shop I contribute at.
Meanwhile in a real truck...
This image broke me, 95% of the trucks I see everyday are used as commuter vehicles with nothing in the bed. And the ones that do are hauling a single sheet of plywood. I plum forgot people use trucks to move stuff.
Couldn't you do that on a cybertruck as well?
The most similar bed for regular trucks is about 14 cu ft more than in the CT (about 70cu ft vs about 56 cu ft) but technically yes you could load a Cybertruck like that, although I wouldn't want to see the sloped sides after a loader dumped a couple of yards in it...
Yards? What the hell? You measure volume in yards now?
A cubic yard is about 25% more than a cubic meter. And a ton is like 10% more than a metric ton.
Water volumes in reservoirs are measured in acre*feet. By comparison a cubic yard is pretty sensible. And for comparison if you know of any big lakes near you, a million acre feet is about 20% smaller than a cubic kilometer.
You got some special edition yards or something?
A cubic meter is 30% more than a cubic yard, meters are longer than yards.
A tonne (metric) is 1000kg, about 2200 pounds. A ton, often called a short ton, is 2000 pounds. A long ton is 2240 pounds. A long ton is 1.6% more than a metric ton.
Yes and it's as annoying and stupid as it sounds
The cubic yard is common among contractors in the US. You buy concrete in yards
But then you'll have to pour like 4 cans of barkeeper's friend all over the car to clean it up immediately after
