Don’t let Tesla Cybertruck’s new software rack distract from its oversize windshield wiper

Yesterday, Tesla teased a brand new accent for the Cybertruck: a software rack that attaches to the mattress of the electrical pickup truck. At first look, this may appear to be an apparent accent to supply to truck prospects, lots of whom are contractors and tradespeople with all kinds of software storage wants. The Cybertruck aspires to be a truck for every type of individuals, and a software rack helps illustrate the kinds of equipment that will probably be obtainable when it will definitely comes out (in all probability subsequent 12 months, however who is aware of).

However don’t be fooled. Tesla is merely attempting to attract consideration away from the windshield wiper, which, as we previously mentioned, is absurdly giant. However — and I can’t emphasize this sufficient — not giant sufficient to actually clean the entire windshield. Earlier proof reveals that the only blade leaves the entire high left part of the windshield unwiped. That’s what I imply after I say the Cybertruck windshield wiper is without doubt one of the defining problems with our time.

We’ve beforehand contemplated the enigma that’s the Cybertruck windshield wiper and are nonetheless left with so many questions. Will it prolong to cowl the entire windshield? In that case, will it go previous the perimeter of the windshield with every swipe? If it telescopes, will it break extra simply? (Mercedes tried a telescoping single blade for the E-class in the 1990s, however apparently, it was extremely breakable.) Why did they make it this manner?

And now there’s this software rack, sitting snuggly on the mattress, sporting a pair shovels that look very actual and completely legit. However make no mistake. They’re attempting to attract your eyes to the rear of the car so that you neglect in regards to the chaos that’s happening within the entrance. They thought possibly they may decrease the picture of the skeletal arm of a windshield wiper blade swiping impotently on the huge expanse of glass by rolling out a shiny new toy for everybody to gawk at.

Will it work? In all probability. Tesla followers love treats, and the corporate is adept at shoveling (get it?) a great deal of sugary snacks at their toes. However you and I each know what’s actually happening right here. We received’t get rolled. We’re wiper truthers. And we are going to resolve this.
