A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I have seen 2 vinyl wrapped cybertrucks while driving around Los Angeles, so I know it’s being done.
They honestly look better painted/wrapped. I'm becoming more and more certain Elon went with stainless steel just to trick people into buying an unpainted car.
Probably a bulk discount with the rocket materials supplier too.
Aluminum sheets that didn't quite make the aircraft grade cut.
Actually 100% both of these. He stated it was a design goal early on and why its got so many straight edges is because the material did not do well with complex forming.
Just the standard Trump 2024, or tied-up Biden/Harris on the tailgate?
The ones I saw were a single color, one of them was all black vinyl.
