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 👍

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".

Wankpanzer has now been added to my lexicon.

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.

I think I'm going to refer to pick ups and SUVs exclusively as "wankpanzers" from now on

My vocabulary was enhanced today too.

Call me crazy, but I think original op, the one with the cyber truck, was actually making a joke

[-] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

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.

That's a big load? That‽ That'll fit into any car.

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.

[-] BaalInvoker@lemmy.eco.br 16 points 2 years ago

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...

Can we just officially call it the Wankpanzer? That's too good.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 13 points 2 years ago

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.
