    2.4 miles per kwh is awful, just stupidly low efficiency for what is bring used as a recreational vehicle. Anything under 3 is hard work on long road trips.

      It’s great if you like naps. Like, really like them, like I do. You can even get an inflatable mattress for most hatchback cars. With an electric car, you typically can run just the climate control, so it’s a great mobile nap machine.

      Car camping in a break could be nice. With the seat lowered, a mattress and the trunk open and you would have a room to connect to a tent, but how can you do such a thing with a cybertruck?
      Also do you bring a fridge to go camping for a weekend. Electric coolers are already a grey camping zone. $

    Lmao. Car camping in my rav4: Pull up. Pop the hatch. (Optional) install magnetic bug screen on hatch opening. Blow up air mattress using car’s 2-prong plug. Sleep.

    So long as it’s not raining sideways, I can even keep it open during storms. My car has something called “intelligent design” in which water is sent away from the hatch door, even when open.

    Looking at “Cybergirl’s” pfp tells me everything I need to know about this person.

      My god she even has a Karen-style haircut and apparently owns multiple Teslas. She must be a real piece of work.

    Plug the car into a power source and yet the outlets in the vehicle don’t work. So don’t forget an extra extension cord (or two)…

    Jeez…

    That is fucking hilarious, esp the cell service requirement for you to, you know, open and shut the doors on the vehicle.

      Requiring cell service for anything on a vehicle is an absurd “will not buy this product” requirement, even on a pure electric vehicle. I routinely (and intentionally) drive my vehicles out of cell range many times a summer.

        Many underground parking garages don’t have cell coverage. It’s really, really stupid to build a car like that

          I haven’t experienced that in a very long time, but I do remember it certainly used to be the case. I imagine it still is in some areas. I need to travel quite far from my city to experience it these days.

    We nearly suffocated, could open doors and the tent mode is no good for being used as a tent and we couldn’t use the all electric vehicles electricity while it was charging.

    I was disappointed that their was no raccoon invasion paragraph for raccoons that mistake them for dumpsters. My explanation is that rural park raccoons are not familiar with dumpsters in the manner that urban raccoons are.

    Each paragraph was crazier than the last. I audibly gaspedwhen I read “50 psi” for a tire.
