Saw this short video via reddit post today. Normally don't put much stock into 'new' videos but the windshield wiper does look different.

I've suspected this 'stubby' has an _ELON_GATION_ feature built-in to make the full sweep!!!

Older prototype? We've seen that stubby windscreen wiper before.

Isn't that the video of the unfinished one from the Moss Landing appearance last year?

You have better memory than I do, but yes it's an older video when the second set of prototypes were making the rounds.

Yes, it's old... the reason it looks like CGI is because of the steer by wire making the wheels snap almost to seem fake. I could really care less about what the wiper looks like... really, after seeing this truck in all its "BEAUTY" the wiper is merely a bug splatter. Bring it on!!!

There really is something interesting going on with the steering. It looks as if it is a very high steering ratio in order to make the front tires rotate that quickly. This is also seen in other videos. Anyone have any thoughts as to why that might be or is it a non-event?

It will be dialed in for delivery... just getting the adaptive steering fine tuned.
