Elon Musk responds after man builds fully functional Cybertruck out of wood for $15,000

Now, there are a lot of ways to stand out from the crowd, but one guy has found a pretty unique way taking inspiration from the Cybertruck design.

Tesla Cybertrucks have been praised and mocked by many since its release last year.

However, some have been trying to find a way to make them standout, as many come in standard silver.

But one ingenious individual had the bright idea of building a working Cybertruck out of wood for the body rather than the steel used.

The truck was built for YouTube channel ND-WoodArt, which sees the team building all manner of different vehicles out of wood.

And it has to be said, it does look pretty cool and sleek, and many users on social media have certainly approved of the design.

ND-Woodart have previously built other vehicles including sports cars, motorbikes, and even a tank. And though a tank made of wood probably isn't ideal in an actual battle, it does look amazing.

But it's the wooden Cybertruck which has caught the internet's attention after the channel posted an open letter to Elon Musk on X.

The tweet read: "I am a passionate content creator with a deep love for wooden vehicles and a tremendous admiration for both you and Tesla. Over the years, I've embarked on several wooden car projects to gain valuable experience.

"And today I launched a car that I am very impressed with, the Cybertruck. It is also the car that many of my audiences love and want me to build."

They added: "I am aware that Tesla has faced its share of challenges in bringing the Cybertruck to fruition. However, I maintain unwavering faith in your vision and the capabilities of Tesla. I am confident that this extraordinary vehicle will ultimately succeed."

Elon Musk himself even replied to the carefully written request asking for a repost, saying: "Sure, much appreciated".

Many fans took to social media to express their admiration for the work.

One wrote: "That result is bad-ass. This has to be one of the best looking Cybertruck to ever hit the roads and I'd love for it to be prominently featured at Tesla's HQ".

Another said: "Cant start to think about the insane amount of measurements that went into this project... This is sooo cool to watch and nothing short of superb."

A third wrote: "If you sold this thing as an entire puzzle, I would buy it. You guys make it look easy to build."
