> impact resistant glass

Don't be suckered by Tesla's advertising drivel, and certainly don't repeat it.

Here's the glass of a VW Golf:

Tesla's dog and pony show is for credulous rubes. You don't need to be one of those.



Unless I’m mistaken, there’s quite a difference between the cybertruck glass and regular auto glass. It doesn’t exist yet, so it’s possible that could change, but it’s also not marketing drivel.


You're mistaken.

Cybertruck glass is just premium auto glass.

It would have taken years to certify an entire different kind of glass for automotive purposes.


It remains to be seen what it ships with, but you can add films and coatings to the glass to make it much more resistant. I don’t think that would affect certification, although I could be wrong.


You're not wrong, you've been suckered by advertising. Watch the video.

The water is there, horse. Drink it.

I watched the video. It doesn’t prove what you think it does. Your attitude is obnoxious.

Um. So. They're going to invent new glass between now and the time they ship the Cybertruck?


Watch the video. And after that video watch this video:

It will help strengthen you against manipulation by advertising.
