This guy’s eyes are all over the screen instead of the road. Only a matter of time until he kills someone.

The comment about not watching the actual road was my first impression. Those cars are obviously dangerous, hopefully they won't meet Australian standards.

That abomination won't be sold outside of the U.S.

Even if we don't get the truck, the highly distracting centre screen containing all details re car and driving, plus AMD desktop CPU and ability to load games etc is already here with the Model Y and Model 3.
Worries me you actually use the cars driving controls to control the game, but as soon as you exit the game the controls go back to controlling the vehicle.

Glad they're not over here.
"I was driving like usual and when coming into a turn [and] releasing the accelerator but the speed [wasn't] reducing," the post reads. "So i pressed the brake... but it [didn't] engage.... until it was too late and I hit a signal light pole."
"Also," the post continues, "airbags [didn't] deploy."
Reading about Cybertruck fails, I also noticed the reports that the long-promised cheaper Tesla, the "Model 2", is being axed. Musk already wasted years with the stupid Cybertruck. In that time Chinese carmakers built an unstoppable lead in developing a huge range of EVs. No-one can beat them. It appears Musk was never really interested in a "people's car". Now he wants to develop a self-driving taxi instead.
Not just China, but they definitely have an edge, the question is are all their EV's built to western design standards, we only really see a small selection of China's EV's from a few manufacturers, I am sure they have many others that will never be sold outside China, but yeah Musk has lost it now. Tesla had a chance at becoming a major manufacturer but the cybertruck I think has clinched it, they will only ever be a niche company, small market of loyal fans.
