Canyonero!
I'm sure this has been mentioned somewhere before, but I just realized that the Cybertruck reminds me of Danger Mouse's car, the Mach III

Not only is that Tesla Truck struggling, it appears to be struggling even while being winched. Which is to say, rescued.

ya so i ride my road bike on this relatively short, narrow, very winding, very very rich road probably 2 maybe 4 times a year in summer. i use a road, witter, that turns off this road about half a mile before the crash location. it's a lovely spot and nowhere to drunk drive or autopilot. because you know what? you belong in jail.
