Tesla Cybertruck — Size Matters

[RV_]

I love the cyber truck and others hate it. If you wonder at the why of it, this article and video really lay it out.

Excerpt:

"The Tesla Cybertruck has been repeatedly described as “polarizing.” However, its looks have been growing on a number of people, because the Cybertruck design is superior in so many ways. With the Cybertruck, form follows the function. The Cybertruck will come to dominate because it was designed based on first principles. Its triangular shape makes it strong, aerodynamic, and easy to manufacture.

The following video does an excellent job of explaining why the Cybertruck looks the way it does. I share it with you so that you may share its lessons with others. Charging Forward is the new YouTube channel that created the video below. Perhaps consider subscribing, as this channel shares the same purpose as Tesla and CleanTechnica — one for all, and all for one."

The Cybertruck is strong yet light, because of its brilliant exoskeleton design. Its cold-rolled stainless steel exterior provides structural support and is impervious to the wear and tear that destroys the luster of so many pickups.

As you may recall, the Cybertruck’s cold-rolled stainless steel exterior requires no paint job. The money saved on a useless, expensive, and fragile coat of paint went instead into a larger battery pack. Additionally, more money was spent on the larger battery pack because the Cybertruck does not use a prosaic body-on-frame design. That is how trucks have been built for over a century, and it’s time to drop that bad design."
