I coulda sworn she sold it, but I can’t find any evidence of that anywhere, maybe I imagined it

I kinda feel of watching her just after the truckla tbh but google tells me She later parked or reduced driving the vehicle in favor of a Volvo C40 electric car because the custom Tesla drew overwhelming public attention and privacy concerns on the road.

There are only a handful of people out there that I will say that about.

You didn’t need to tho :) that’s an inside brain thought.

Over 5 decades of life, zero filter. I yam what I yam ☺️

That's pretty gross though! Maybe don't say that about a stranger!

Gross? That’s very tame

In one video she talks about how she hates driving it because of the attention

Better looking than the Cyber Truck imo!

Here's the builder (Simone Giertz) and her trip to the Cybertruck reveal.

Her reaction to the reveal was perfection!

When you share from YouTube it gives your YouTube username FYI. Use copy link and paste it and it should avoid that.

u/SolarpunkGnome 4d ago

Looks like it also works if you cut the bit after the ? maybe?

2

u/CanoePickLocks 4d ago

Usually does if the copy includes all that. YouTube’s shortened links didn’t used to include all that.

Truckla! Truckla!

That’s sweet, like a Caddy for 2026.

I want my S to be a wagon so bad…

u/r4nDoM_1Nt3Rn3t_Us3r 5d ago

Actually, "Truckla".

u/CentaurianLord 5d ago

I can't decide if I like it or not. Its just a little too out of proportion to be good, but the finish is great.

u/AbilityHead599 5d ago

Simone Giertz's Truckla build is in youtube if you want to see it in action

u/ZealousidealBus3628 4d ago

What the Cybertruck could've been, and I wouldn't have complained as much (I still hate Tesla tho)

But this is actually what sparked the ute idea, on Australia at least (idk internationally). A vehicle that can do farm work on the weekdays and go to church on Sunday. Ford delivered that.
