A YouTuber's finger was left shaking and dented after he tested out if the Tesla Cybertruck update actually makes the frunk safer.

    The worst part of the article is them using the term frunk unironically.

      I think frunk is a good word. What would you call a trunk that is in the front of the car.

        A normal trunk in the back isn’t a “bunk”.

        Why is frunk a good name for the front? It’s silly.

          Well traditionally, cars only had one trunk, now it is common that they have two. The need arose to distinguish them, and ‘front trunk’ easily collapses into a nice single syllable portmanteau that makes communication simple and concise; the language evolves and a new word is born.

        A Trood or Tronnet for the British folk.

        A trunk. There’s nothing about that word that indicates location.

            No not really. Plenty of rear and mid engine cars have had a trunk up front.

      That’s just a normal word a this point, I’ve seen it in use for years in car tests.
