A puddle shouldn't be an obstacle for a pickup truck.
For a Tesla Cybertruck, however, that's exactly what it is. There's ridicule for it on the internet.
Driving through the terrain in the pick-up shouldn't actually be a problem.
After all, that's what they're built for.
Normally it's not a problem either.
Unless you bought a Tesla Cybertruck.
Because the electric car can't handle dirt at all and has to be washed immediately afterwards.
But it seems that water isn't particularly good for the electric pick-up either.
After driving through a puddle: Tesla Cybertruck makes strange noises
bengregers_ posted a video on Instagram showing a cybertruck driving through a puddle off-road.
The water sprays in all directions.
However, the effects that the maneuver has on the Tesla are much more interesting.

“That doesn’t sound good…” writes bengregers_ under the video.
This refers to the noises that the electric pick-up makes as it drives towards the camera.
The closer he gets, the more clearly a creaking sound can be heard.
The headlights also flash before the Cybertruck stops.

It is unclear whether the consequences for the Tesla are really that dramatic.
The video ends at this point without revealing what condition the Cybertruck is in.
But a defect would fit into the picture.
After all, the pick-up also has its problems with snow.
In addition to the poor driving characteristics due to the wrong tires, the headlights are also blocked.
But it is also possible that the sound is not part of the video, as some Instagram users suspect.

So it's no wonder that there are numerous malicious comments under the video of the broken down Cybertruck:
“Put it in rice!”
“Try a hairdryer.”
“Sounds expensive:”
“And this thing should be able to survive a zombie apocalypse?”
“He forgot to download the waterproofing app.”
“I now believe that everyone who buys a Cybertruck should be entitled to a handicapped parking space.”
