Cybertruck!

• Yesterday Tesla announced a new pickup truck that tows 14,000 pounds, has a 500 mile range, and Porsch-like acceleration.

• It “looks like it was designed by people who give things names starting with ‘cyber.’”

• It’s supposed to be very tough but the results of the demo were mixed… It included a sledgehammer smash (no dent), a metal ball thrown at a window (it broke), and another ball thrown at another window (it broke too).

• Musk says it should withstand a 9mm round. Was that the next test? Did that get canceled after the window smashing?

• MOST IMPORTANTLY - how does this effect ME? We are car-less in Manhattan and back in the day I was a truck guy. As we consider a move to the burbs, the timing here seems perfect.
