If these were called "cruise control", "adaptive cruise control", and "Blue Cruise" would it matter if the article said "cruise control" but was referring to "Blue Cruise"?

Tesla's names for these things are "Autopilot", "Enhanced Autopilot", and "FSD Beta".

At the very least, the names matter so that we can all agree we're talking about the same things.

It's definitely for the bigger cab and longer bed. You can tie a 14' kayak down in a 6ft bed with the tailgate down without any other supports. A shorter bed and you'll have to use one of those tail gate hitch things.

Yeah the point is that if you care about denting it, something is wrong with your choice of tools, not the tool you chose.

Yeah, it's incredibly disappointing that the bed is only 4x6 at the bottom. I can't find any info for the dimensions at the top of the box, if that makes sense. Normal trucks have a much wider bed above the wheel wells for wider things like mattresses or awkwardly shaped things like kayaks.

The 2500lb payload is on par for a standard pickup, but with a back bed wall shaped like ¿, it's difficult to even know what would fit or how well.

I'd drive an actual dumpster if it was electric and was rated for 500 EPA miles. I'm more disappointed that Tesla had four years to perfect the battery tech to make this possible and failed, after promising that they were practically done.

Or just treat it like a real truck and give zero fucks about the dents.

Folding is stone age tech. We need a wrinkle-free laundry compressor/decompressor.

Yep, they call them land bridges. More of a hill than a mountain, but the meme is right!

it's the cornmeal they use to keep it from sticking during prep

We're on social media, linguistic nihilism is the free square.

$18 on Amazon, more adjustable than any stand that could possibly be included in the box:

I want him to be the top crab in the bucket as I watch that bucket sail into the sun.
