Are the bullet holes shopped on instead of shot on?

It looks like the same hole with the same shadows pasted all over the car.

"A Typical Day Buying a Car in America"

So, there I was, minding my own business, when I decide it's about time I get myself a new set of wheels. You know, something reliable, maybe a little bulletproof? Can’t be too careful out there, right?

Walked into this dealership, looking sharp as ever in my sunglasses and a trench coat, ready to flip the script. The salesman, guy named Greg, looked up from his desk like I’d just walked into the sun. "Can I help you?" he says, polite but cautious. "Sure, buddy," I said, sliding my .45 onto the counter. "I’m in the market for a car that can take a hit."

Greg’s eyes widened. "Uh... we’ve got models that can handle themselves. How about the Honda Civic? It’s pretty tough for its size—bulletproof up to 9mm!" "9mm?" I repeated, unimpressed. "Buddy, my gun’s got a hair more punch."

We went through the lineup: the Ford F-150 with its armor-like doors (though it admitted it’d leave a dent or two), the Subaru Outback with its reinforced undercarriage (can’t trust cars that hide), and then… there was the Tesla Cybertruck. "Think you’re funny," I said, sliding behind the wheel. "Let’s see what this thing’s got."

Pulled out my SIG Sauer, popped off a few rounds. The Civic? Dented like a can of beans. The F-150? A bulletproof glass shattered, but it held up… kinda. And then the Cybertruck. "Bullets," I said, aiming dead center. "Go ahead. Hit it."

Greg let out a breath he probably hadn’t taken since 2012. The bullets hit, and… nothing. Not a scratch, not a dent. Just like that, the Cybertruck became my new ride. "Sure, why not," I said, shrugging. "It’s got range, style, and now, apparently, it’s bulletproof."

Drove off, leaving Greg staring after me like I’d just pulled a heist or something.

The fuck they shoot it with? Paintballs?

FWIW, IIRC it's only bulletproof to subsonic 9mm. If you're using normal range ammo (115gr), it's not going to stop the bullet. It's definitely not going to stop any rifle more powerful than a .22lr.

And super-rigid body panels are actually a bad thing; it likely doesn't have crumple zones, which means that more energy is going into the passengers in a crash.

If it's on fire and the autolocks, you know the doors are strong enough to not budge when you try to kick them open.

Is this like those dimples on golf balls, to make an air cushion layer to improve aerodynamics?

Yes let's all make cars ridiculously strong and kill pedestrians because fuck them!

"Technically" bulletproof (in that some parts can't have holes poked through them by bullets), can't drive through sand or mud.

Very apocalypse-proof.

They aren't shitting their pants because they can actually get to a bathroom in their cars

Aside from the fact that you'd be funding the nazis, it's so fucking ugly...

At least they didn't try shooting through the bulletproof windows. They woulda killed the driver.

From what I saw on a YouTube channel that tested the cyber truck. It can take anything up to a 22. Beyond that you’re screwed

Don't waste it on the car and use it on the nazi driving the car (but first, verify that they are, indeed, a nazi, some might have gotten it before the elon's nazi reveal)
