This one fan really jumped the gun, despite the fact that Musk has some overeager fans.
In the wake of Musk promising the Cybertruck can double as a boat, Eady thought he could save his favorite billionaire.

He came up with the idea of mounting a propeller on the tow hitch of a Cybertruck to speed it up.
These claims seem unnecessary for a vehicle that is already having a hard time hitting the streets.
