On a recent episode of The Big Podcast, his own show, Shaq finally shared the real reason why he gave up his Teslas.
He said it’s all about how far the Cybertrucks can go on one charge.
For someone who drives a lot and doesn’t like waiting, that was a major issue. He literally said, “I was into Cybertrucks, but they don’t give enough charge mileage.”
So basically, he’s saying if he drives to the city and comes back, the battery’s almost dead. So he’d have to keep stopping to charge, which is super annoying if he’s in a hurry.
And it’s not just about finding a charger, sometimes he has to wait for one to be available, then waste like 20 more minutes just charging.
Shaq decided to go with a different electric car, the Cadillac Escalade IQ, which is also a luxury electric SUV. He said that while he was in Las Vegas, he didn’t need to charge the Escalade IQ for four whole days, that’s a big deal.
I will agree that the Cybertruck sucks. Its range sucks, its build quality sucks, it’s ugly, everything about it sucks. But, when talking about the Cybertruck, not mentioning that it’s built by a literal Nazi is a complete disservice.
No, its a smart move. He gave an honest disapproval of the product. This stops MAGA from going crazy and just screaming “woke” over and over. It’s hard to argue against the fact that cybertrucks are the lowest quality EV on the market.
Oh. So no mention of Nazis.
Dude pretended to be a flat earther for attention. He’s not a good person.
for those interested, the escalade IQ has a 465mile range and a 150k price tag. 750hp though. but it’s 150k for a boring suv. 4.7 0-60 in the boring suv though. but 150k.
The cost of a 150k SUV to Shaq is like the cost of adding a side of fries to you or I.
An Suv should not be rated on its 0-60 time
Ever.
Fucking ever.
I will rate an SUV on 0-60 time…
0 to 60 meters of elevation off-road.
Meh, a macan or x3 or 5 are more than capable of handling their power.
Wasn’t Shaq also found out to be quite the bully? I haven’t liked him since he did gambling ads in Australia. Fuck Shaq. Fuck Musk. Fuck cybertrucks.
Shaq is associated with either the sheriff’s office or police department in my hometown and I think another town as well.
I really wanted him to say it was because the cstuck was too small.
it’s probably a given that everything is too small for people like him, dude is a behemoth!
Custom drivers seat. I could stand up to steer, while you do the pedals.
That’s a big deal___
