Twitter post by @DirtyTesLa: Thankful to have Cybertruck to help me with the real work and big loads π (image of Cybertruck with several bags of soil in the trunk)
Reply by @KralikLj: Hell boy that would fit in a bicycle. Way more carbon free than that wankpanzer. (image of cargo bicycle with several bags of soil strapped to the front)
One's gotta feel so goofy bragging about their truck hauling a load that would fit in most any compact sedan
I mean that easily fits in my compact hatchback
Hatchbacks generally fit things like that more easily than sedans.
Bragging

Look at the username, and the platform
Why the fuck do people use that site?!?
That would fit in my wifeβs fucking Camry man
Camry is not a small car
Sorry, my wife drives a cavalier. Not a Camry. I am not good with vehicle names. I am big dumb.
I have walked more home in a cheap wagon.
I appreciate what Len's going for, but showing a Cybertruck with a load that would fit in a normal car, and 'owning' it by showing a bike carrying what appears to be half as much, is only going to give ammo to the dipshits with their massively oversized trucks.
'Hey, bro! My Ford SuperMacho DonkeyDong Pavement Princess edition would fit the load from the Cybertruck and the load from the cargo bike. I could throw the bike on top too!'
Reframing it as 'the Cybertruck's so shitty that half the load will fit on a bike with no issues, and you don't have to be seen driving a Cybertruck' would probably work better π
The packages on the bike look far longer, it's quite possible that it actually is the same load

I fully agree with this, but I have to say I think it's equivalently and succinctly encapsulated by "wankpanzer".
Them: I pay $700/m on my truck loan so I can move a ton of mulch every year.
Me: I pay a $57 delivery fee so I can move six tons of mulch every year.
We are not the same.
Meanwhile in a real truck...
This image broke me, 95% of the trucks I see everyday are used as commuter vehicles with nothing in the bed. And the ones that do are hauling a single sheet of plywood. I plum forgot people use trucks to move stuff.
Couldn't you do that on a cybertruck as well?
The most similar bed for regular trucks is about 14 cu ft more than in the CT (about 70cu ft vs about 56 cu ft) but technically yes you could load a Cybertruck like that, although I wouldn't want to see the sloped sides after a loader dumped a couple of yards in it...
Yards? What the hell? You measure volume in yards now?
Yes and it's as annoying and stupid as it sounds
The cubic yard is common among contractors in the US. You buy concrete in yards
A cubic yard is about 30% less than a cubic meter. And a ton is like 10% less than a metric ton.
Water volumes in reservoirs are measured in acre*feet. By comparison a cubic yard is pretty sensible. And for comparison if you know of any big lakes near you, a million acre feet is about 20% smaller than a cubic kilometer.
You got some special edition yards or something?
A cubic meter is 30% more than a cubic yard, meters are longer than yards.
A tonne (metric) is 1000kg, about 2200 pounds. A ton, often called a short ton, is 2000 pounds. A long ton is 2240 pounds. A long ton is 1.6% more than a metric ton.
I think I'm going to refer to pick ups and SUVs exclusively as "wankpanzers" from now on
Call me crazy, but I think original op, the one with the cyber truck, was actually making a joke
I also think it's more of a sarcastic remark about size of the cargo bed, if you can even call it a cargo bed.
The account is literally called Dirty Tesla. This must be one of the biggest whooshes in history.
Funny seeing this, I just got back from taking 40L of planting soil home in the back of my (non-cargo) bike. It's doable, for sure.
Lol, I don't know about a bicycle but I routinely toss six bags of dirt in the back of my Honda Accord and my ex- boss has a trailer for his Corolla.
Also, presumably he got it to the checkout at the store in a grocery cart, he (I am making an assumption here that this is a dude) has to know you don't need a truck to move it.
Thankful to have Cybertruck
Isn't that the most basic feature of a car?
Reminds me of the people thankful for Facebook so they can talk to friends, when what enabled that really was the Internet and Facebook just created an app incompatible with any existing messaging standard.
Well, I guess that some people just like to put big loads on their back and post it on the internet... Who am I to judge...
I'm in the unfortunate position of not living in a place to practically use that bicycle, and being unable to afford a cybertruck. I wouldn't buy one, even if I could afford it, but I'd like to be in that position.
my wagon can definitely carry that, without the risk of slicing off pedestrians' faces in an accident, too.
Can we just officially call it the Wankpanzer? That's too good.
I saw one IRL the other day and it was way bigger than I thought based on pictures. This shows how shitty the trunk on it is. Whole car was bigger than an Escalade, but this is all that trunk can fit. What a hunk o shit.
