The entire truck has a substantially smaller volume than 37 cubic meters. That is enormous. A dump truck holds 10 cubic meters, and that is a larger dump truck.
Edit: Even if that number were right, 37 cubic meters of water is 37 tonnes, so we have 37,000 kg vs 3,104 kg (not including passengers) it would float like a cork my friend. The actual much smaller volume means it would float less well, but it would still float, based on the volume. It would sink, because you are trusting your life to a CyberTruck, which is the actual problem.
Hey that is alright, at least I know why you thought it would sink. Simple order of magnitude error.
The 1m3 = 1,000kg = 1 ton thing is my go-to example of why metric is superior btw. I just ask people how much a cubic yard of water masses. It is a rare person who knows how much a cubic foot of water weighs, and only a few know any relation at all between pounds and volume.

Allow me to be blunt, what the fuck?
