Anyone else Think the bed has a lot of lost space? looks like inside sloped sides? any idea what those are?

Yes! I have a Cyberlandr camper on order and I'm really worried the bed is going to be too small now, especially the amount of vertical space lost by the overhang.

NOT a 'Light Bar'

CYBERLANDR will be watching!
Shout out to Lance!

Less 'BUMMER on seats!

6 x 4. Pretty big.
Probs our human eyes letting us down again

Some opinions from a guy in construction
1) the frunk most certainly opens up like the lightning. Reason: camera is clearly offset to accommodate a front plate. Center of course is best. Camera can’t go under plate and only can’t go in the crevice where lights preside because they don’t want you smashing it loading the frunk
2) the sail panel storage looks to be accessed from inside the bed. While that makes sense from packaging stand point (with what appears to be a composite bed a la toyota) it obviously won’t be as convenient
3) appears to accommodations for both roof and bed racks, which is paramount for a truck
4) the bed appears to be JUST wide enough for a pallet or plywood. While its crucial to allow for those things, its going to introduce a lot of accidents for fork lift drivers. My belief is that this is to allow for rear steer.
5) the tonneau cover track appears improved but its clearly not for air sealing so hvac / midgate is almost certainly DOA
6) that tow hook location (if thats what the popouts are for) is absolutely terrible. Imagine being buried in the mud and having to find those
7) winch? With a lightningesque frunk I just don’t see how that’s gonna work. That is a really big sticking point for me.
8) im not seeing how a tailgate ramp will exist given the reduced height and the need for “a surface” to hit the ground. That would get chewed up in short order
9) the back seat legroom and space in general appears smaller than any modern half ton truck. While this will count as a 5 seater, it won’t be comfortable with three construction guys. That doesn’t affect me but it will definitely turn off some industries. More than the lack of front middle seat does.

Overall I like it. I don’t see any killer corners.
The winch is the biggest negative by far for me

That bed looks like a Cyberlandr nightmare with the narrower bed and the overhang. I never thought it was a feasible design anyway.

Anyone else concerned about the amount of plastic on the front and rear bumper of the truck?
This is supposed to be the toughest production vehicle ever, but the bumpers (where impacts and scratches happen most often) look mighty fragile...

Looks Ok! Will keep my order, for now! Good that will not receive one of the first ones! Tesla will correct a few things!

• 6x4 bed size - exceeds my need!
• 5 seats instead of 6. - dam, 6 would be nice!
• 5% stated. - Nice, it was too big for my needs.
• Will have a frunk.
• Like the steering wheel.
• the bed lining, dahh, the first with the T track was much nicer (would creat future issues probably)
• Rear leg room seems short!! Not good!
• The "driver" display would be nice to have! Don't like to look to the side to control my speed!
• The ramp is missing or what?! Not nice!

Bi directional power input/output on Cybertruck is not looking good as they’re doing a Q&A right now and Elon is expressing how he doesn’t see people wanting that function w/o a Powerwall as once you unplug your house goes dark. Dude next to him on the panel (not sure which department he works in at Tesla) backed him up and agreed.

I remember this being discussed on here previously and seems Elon has not changed his stance on the matter.

If the CT still has a rolling vault cover, it seems like it must have changed significantly. We know the roof and rear window are glass, so the cover can't be stored there and still extend above the rear window.

Past images have shown the tonneau cover along the purple line, but is it possible it now follows the green line? That would leave the window exposed like a traditional truck and explain where the cover is stored...

I find the LACK of information regarding a proper update on the Cybertruck at the Investor Day very disappointing. They keep saying they will have a more detailed update (i.e. Q4 earnings call) and here we are on March 1st with no update.

EM also said that he thinks using the the vehicle as a supplemental system for powerwall could happen further down the line.

So definitely on the books, to the point I believe it will become just a firmware switch, on vehicles like the CT with power out capacity.
