"It does suck, because everybody kind of makes fun of the Cybertruck. To the outside person, it's kind of weird, it's ugly, whatever. Once you actually get in it, drive it, you realize it's pretty frickin' cool," he says. "It's kind of been sad, because I've been trying to prove to people that it's a really awesome truck that's not falling apart, and then mine starts to fall apart, so it's just... Yeah, it's kind of unfortunate and sad."

There's probably that bell curve graph with the concave head and the sage monk saying "glue breaks down over time" and the crying tryhard who says "There's basically no such thing as 'glue' because we use all manner of things as adhesives that have almost nothing in common; some do break down with time or heat or vibration or moisture or light or scathing remarks, others have held furniture together for thousands of years."

So Elon decided to use one that breaks down with heat/moisture/vibration in his... Trucks?

Interesting, as they say.

More likely than not they used the one that breaks down when exposed to scathing remarks
