Off-road vehicles and trucks are often designed to combat the environment and treacherous terrain. 4×4 monsters designed for dirt, mud, mountainous terrain, and especially snow and ice. Well, this is true unless you are riding around in Elon Musk’s personal Tonka toy turned nazi status symbol, the Cybertruck. One unlucky owner found himself stuck on a busy street in Montreal, Quebec, due to questionable driving and a poor excuse for an off-road machine.
In a pretty hilarious bit of footage posted by Two_Inches_of_Fun on the r/Gifs Reddit page, on a busy street in Canada, some poor Tesla Cybertruck driver stuck on a busy street with a few inches of snow claiming his truck. Large window wiper aside, many posters on the Reddit thread couldn’t help but call out the questionable driving that led to this poor driver getting stuck and overall laughing at Cybertruck’s poor design and actual effectiveness at being anything more than a glorified and overpriced status symbol.
“That comically large wiper gets me every time 😂”
“it’s still comical to me that this is a real car and people actually spend money to buy it.”
“Not the first time snow has stopped a Nazi advancement…”
And to top it off, another user wrote.
A Mercedes-Benz is a status symbol.
A Ferrari is a status symbol.
The key difference is that those vehicles are designed to excel at what they were built to do—luxury, performance, engineering excellence.
The Cybertruck is a status symbol masquerading as a utility vehicle, but it’s a poorly executed gimmick prone to design failures and recalls, ill-suited for what it’s pretending to be.
I get that some people were genuinely excited by the concept—it’s frustrating that what they got is falling so short of those expectations.
Hopefully, the drivers were able to free themselves from the tyranny 5 inches of snow caused, but if not, perhaps they should look into spending all that money on a vehicle capable of the bare minimum in regards to off-road trucking.
