"It does suck, because everybody kind of makes fun of the Cybertruck. To the outside person, it's kind of weird, it's ugly, whatever. Once you actually get in it, drive it, you realize it's pretty frickin' cool," he says. "It's kind of been sad, because I've been trying to prove to people that it's a really awesome truck that's not falling apart, and then mine starts to fall apart, so it's just... Yeah, it's kind of unfortunate and sad."

Purely a marketing issue. Instead of "trim pieces falling off at speed", call it the Cyclist Beheader™.

Show those Wokeys who's boss!

Looks like a boat, breaks like a boat...

There’s a saying that the second happiest day of all boat owners is the day they get rid of that expensive piece of junk.

Clearly they're shedding their coccoliths in order to increase their buoyancy and stay in the euphotic zone.
