      This video is such a perfect example of Poe’s Law.

      Except it can’t be a parody, because he actually owns a Cybertruck, which means this video is too expensive to make as a joke. And you know that he owns one because he had his Instagram username painted on the back. Which, again, feels like it should be satire. Except it can’t be, because you have to actually have bought a Cybertruck to do it. My God they are ridiculous.

    Real talk. One of those POS trucks came through Lowe’s to pick up (heh) mulch. We got 12 bags in the back and he had to drive home with the top down and make a third trip for all his goods. That’s 3 stacks of 4 bags. I can cram that in my 2002 Spyder convertible.

    For comparison, we routinely jam 20-25 in most SUVs, 30 is nothing in a typical pickup, 40-50 will fit if stacked nicely. Hauled home 22 bags today in my 2004 F-150 with two pallets underneath.

    I refused to come near the asshole for fear my mouth would overload me. “Try not to die wrecking into a bicycle you fucking fascist!”

      I was comparing the cubic foot capacity of a Cybertruck and a f150 and I have a hard time believing they’re close. Something fucky is going on with the advertised Cybertruck numbers.

    Look at how truck this truck is.

    I can fit all of that in the back of my 2006 Suzuki, which I paid $5000 for. I wouldn’t even need to put the back seat down.

    Things I’ve fit in my Kia Soul:

    • Queen sized bed
    • Multiple bookshelves
    • 9 20lbs tanks and 3 30lbs tanks (empty)
    • 2 desks

    Things I’ve fit in my Nissan Versa Note:

    • All the lumber for my loft bed and full length desk
    • 2 desks

    And with a trailer:

    • Everything in my 1-bed apartment

    The load he’s hauling would fit in my trunk without having to fold down the seats.

      Queen??? I’m assuming no passengers + vacuum packed?

        Just the frame, no mattress. I was alone at the time, but def could have had someone in the front passenger seat.

          Now I’m curious, as I have done this before. The Kia looks kind of small, I’m guessing your long rails come in two pieces? I think when I had to do this with a bigger car it went from corner of trunk to right by the driver or passenger.

    That’s barely a fucking Miata load, let alone a load worthy of the hatchbacks other folks in the thread are talking about.

    From now on, every time I’m carrying more than two bags of potting soil, I’m calling it “truck stuff.”

    I’ve hauled more with my bike. 😂 What a fucking waste of space.

    I have a 17 year old one-ton that I just hauled 1500L of liquid fertilizer in yesterday. That poor little fucking tonka toy would have shit its diaper.
