    A man who pimped out his Tesla Cybertruck and transformed it into an iconic Halo vehicle has been praised by the internet for ‘winning life’.

    In 2001, Microsoft Game Studios released the Bungie-developed Halo: Combat Evolved.

    Set in the 26th century, the first-person shooter (FPS) saw the player assuming the role of Master Chief, a super soldier tasked with battling the Covenant, a military alliance composed of a myriad of alien species.

    Since then, the Halo franchise has expanded to novels, comic books, feature films and the recently cancelled Apple TV+ series of the same name.

    As well as Halo: Combat Evolved introducing the world to Master Chief and his artificial intelligence companion (AI) Cortana, the game served as the first time gamers could drive the M12 Force Application Light Reconnaissance Vehicle (M12 FA-LRV).

    M12 FA-LRV, also affectionately known as the Warthog, is a drivable vehicle which features in most Halo titles.

    Considered a fan favorite, replicas of the Warthog have previously been built by the likes of Weta Workshop and featured in organized events such as the 2013 Seattle Pride Parade.

    But now one Halo enthusiast has gone a step further by transforming their Cybertruck into the iconic car—and they even managed to get their son along for the ride.

    In July, a man named TeslaKen posted photographs of his EV to the Cybertruck Owners Club website with the caption: “WWI Liberty Memorial Car Show and Master Chief from Halo has arrived to show his respects!”

    In the pictures, the man’s son could be seen standing on a replica Warthog, handling a rear-mounted weapon turret.

    Speaking more about the event, TeslaKen wrote: “My son lasted about 45 minutes in that costume before he had to get out as the heat was getting to him inside that black PVC jumpsuit and armor.

    “Lots of pictures were taken in that amount of time by hundreds of spectators. He was a real trooper to do that for me!”

    Pictures taken of the truck have made their way onto social media and have been praised by fellow Tesla fans.

    “This guy is winning at Halloween this year. Epic,” typed one motor head, while a second countered: “My man is winning life this year.”

    Another user Twitter, wrote: “That is gotta be the best master chief costume I’ve ever seen. The warthog is even crazier.” And someone else agreed: “One of the reasons why I need a Cybertruck.”

    Interestingly, TeslaKen isn’t the only person to transform their Cybertruck into a Halo Warthog.

    In September, popular YouTuber Brandon Herrera caught the attention of Elon Musk after he modified his vehicle to mimic the legendary video game’s car.

    Complete with a fully functional M2 Browning .50 caliber machine gun, the transformed beast was a sight to behold.

    After a clip of the vehicle rolling out was posted on X, Musk, 53, acknowledged the YouTuber’s dedication by writing: “This is awesome.”

    So, if you too dream of receiving a seal of approval from the billionaire himself you now know what you need to do.
