Well, he said it was going to be different.

The #Cybertruck, Tesla’s all-new electric pickup truck, is here, and it can take a sledgehammer to the door while nary a dent. The all-electric pickup will offer up to 500 miles of range and start at $39,000. https://t.co/7a8YBicIkC

Starts at $40k, though. That's impressive.

He had a camper top and I've done long car rides with the dogs slobbering all over me the whole time. But the back was full this time.

So it ugly and it's not functional as a truck b/c it has anglers bed rails?

Is there any other way "it isn't functional as a truck"?

For instance "can't have a toolbox and access things over the side".

You've got a under-bed trunk at the tailgate and a giant frunk under the hood. Why would you throw random small items behind the can anymore?

As a construction worker, the is NOTHING LESS FUNCTIONAL than a "toolbox" in the back of a truck.

Been around them for years and still haven't seen an organized one that works.

I'd probably prefer some sort or tool organization in the front trunk with a charger bank and batteries already plugged in charging. Could easily fit multiple impacts, drills, saw all, portaban, hammerdrill etc up there organized and charged.

Throw the rest under the bed or in the side rail storage. I'd have a 100% clear 6.5' bed with all my tooling at all times.

You city guys are going to have to explain to me how it doesn't function as a truck. It blows away any setup I've dealt with in years.

P.S. Truck toolboxs are dumb and only serve the purpose of signaling to other truck drivers that you're not a "poser".

It's a truck for people who don't actually drive trucks. In short, it's a freakin' Honda Ridgeline.
Again, it can carry 4 X 8 sheet goods flat with the tailgate down. Tell me how this isn't functional....

When I get home I’ll get a picture and listing of all the shit that’s in mine.

I assure you I’m not a poser.

Clearance is 6 inches more than anything in class, the bed is 4.5' X 6.5' and headspace for the driver is more than any trick on the market.

I get it. You guys think it's ugly and it's electric so I hate it. But it literally outperforms any F- 150 in everyday outside of a full-size 8ft bed.

Y'all are grasping at straws.

Agree. Bigger cab though and no transmission tunnel. No different than backseat bitch now.

It can't be organized. It's literally impossible.

To say truck boxes are dumb is as ignorant as shit.

Just because you or the people you have been around don’t know how to properly make use of them does not mean they are dumb. We have used them on our farm for years and have multiple trucks with them. I have made custom shelves to store batteries for power tools, shelves for ratchets and sockets, spots to hold the power tools that require the batteries.

Cool. Put it under the hood. More functional and accessible anyways.
