Well, I would say the test results were conclusive, if nothing else.

There's something to say about how an idiot you must be to buy a Cybertruck to start with: it's less capable than other electric (or not electric) pick-up, it's unecessarily big, it's fragile and expensive, and owning one doesn't convey the image of their buyers they think it conveys.

And so not surprisingly, that pool of people counts amongst the biggest idiots who will do these kind of idiot tests.

I can't but wonder how many CT buyers would be dead by now if Musk had claimed the CT can glide.
