I think I'm going to refer to pick ups and SUVs exclusively as "wankpanzers" from now on

LOL, my son and I both drive hatchback Mazda 3's. My son had to drive to a customers site because the boxes were too tall to fit in a truck like this. And I just went to Lowes for mulch and stuff and put 7 bags of mulch, 4 bags of dirt, and 1 bag of compost in the back with my seats down without going over my weight limit. But I did similar in my Saturn Aura 4 door with fold down back seats. I only drove a truck when I needed to tow a boat. When the boat went so did the truck
Can we just officially call it the Wankpanzer? That's too good.
Panzerwanken. Perfect.
I appreciate what Len's going for, but showing a Cybertruck with a load that would fit in a normal car, and 'owning' it by showing a bike carrying what appears to be half as much, is only going to give ammo to the dipshits with their massively oversized trucks.
'Hey, bro! My Ford SuperMacho DonkeyDong Pavement Princess edition would fit the load from the Cybertruck and the load from the cargo bike. I could throw the bike on top too!'
Reframing it as 'the Cybertruck's so shitty that half the load will fit on a bike with no issues, and you don't have to be seen driving a Cybertruck' would probably work better 👍

I fully agree with this, but I have to say I think it's equivalently and succinctly encapsulated by "wankpanzer".
You don't even need a bike like that, just a couple bicycle bags hanging off the side of a standard old bicycle
Lol, I don't know about a bicycle but I routinely toss six bags of dirt in the back of my Honda Accord and my ex- boss has a trailer for his Corolla.
Also, presumably he got it to the checkout at the store in a grocery cart, he (I am making an assumption here that this is a dude) has to know you don't need a truck to move it.
Meanwhile in a real truck...
Call me crazy, but I think original op, the one with the cyber truck, was actually making a joke
I also think it's more of a sarcastic remark about size of the cargo bed, if you can even call it a cargo bed.
One's gotta feel so goofy bragging about their truck hauling a load that would fit in most any compact sedan
I mean that easily fits in my compact hatchback
Hatchbacks generally fit things like that more easily than sedans.
That would fit in my wife’s fucking Camry man

Look at the username, and the platform
Why the fuck do people use that site?!?
Wankpanzer has now been added to my lexicon.
My takeaway as well
An open source gift to the world.
I'm in the unfortunate position of not living in a place to practically use that bicycle, and being unable to afford a cybertruck. I wouldn't buy one, even if I could afford it, but I'd like to be in that position.
One drove by us at the end of a hike yesterday and I literally thought.. "what the fuck is.. oh - oh wait is that their.. ugh, oh no. Fuck this- fuck this guy driving. Hey buddy you look like a jackass fuck your Nazi CEO funding bullshit pedestrian murdering truck."
People are so triggered by the cybertruck. I want one just for the pure entertainment value of triggering the fragile.
Literal "eats shit so other people have to smell your breath" mindset, lmao
