lmfao these things were designed for a place where it barely rains, I can't wait to see what else winter does to these things

One of the design flaws makes the headlights sink in and creates a little shelf in front of them, where snow builds up and covers the headlights while the car is driving. you have to regularly pull over and brush off the snow if you're driving in snowfall or you end up driving in darkness even with the headlights on. This is in a car that relies entirely on cameras for its autopilot.

I can imagine a post on a Cybertruck form sometime soon.

Guys, I knew winter would be challenging for me and my truck but I'm on the side of the road right now because my truck had a little problem. A minute ago when I was driving my left foot went through the floorboard kinda. Not much but it's like a serious problem. I hear the wind blowing from outside even though I'm in my truck and the windows are rolled up. Where I live they use a lot of salt on the road so that had to make things worse, right?...
