Suicide doors LOOK cool but they REALLY suck to get out of if both front and rear passengers are getting out. Forget trying to get something out of the backseat if you are parked near someone else. Absolute hell (speaking from an F-150 perspective)I wonder if shades retract down
that is exactly what I said years back!
It would look amazing with suicide doors

Based on the content of Master Plan 3, there is a good chance that the CT will be the last vehicle purchase for the majority of us here. Tesla is going all in on robotaxi and making that network so cheap to operate that it will be relatively cost prohibitive to own your own vehicle.5. This will be my last vehicle purchase, so I'll be paying the $7000 FSD.
I agree that "nobody" (in the teen sense of my friends are everyone and no one outside of that group counts) wants to hold their phone sideways. This is partially the fault of Apple design and how the iPhone works.My daughters argue "It depends on where you are going to post the video. Nobody wants to hold their phone sideways." I disagree, girls. I disagree.
Combine Neuralink and Optimus cameras and you have a Cyber Eyeball. Elon has been planning for this scenario.“And that’s why Tesla bought him a Cyber Eyeball!”
I suspect that you are speaking about the modern incarnation of suicide doors where the front door is conventional but the back door is a suicide configuration. If so, I totally agree.Suicide doors LOOK cool but they REALLY suck to get out of if both front and rear passengers are getting out.

Absolute pain in the ass.
I think the thing people like isn’t the reversed doors, but the big opening. The kind you only see in creeper vans anymore.I suspect that you are speaking about the modern incarnation of suicide doors where the front door is conventional but the back door is a suicide configuration.

Back in the day though things were different. You know, back in the horse and buggy days... Back then all the doors on the buggy were configured suicide (well, as much a standard as any standards that existed back then).
In a modern vehicle, if ALL the doors were a suicide configuration, then the issues you talk about would be no more a problem than if all the doors were conventional as most vehicles are set up these days.
OR, instead of having a stable full of vehicles in my household (we currently have 4 working, with 2 nonworking). We could have 2. One to share responsibility with a powerwall for the solar panels to store energy. And one to share between 5 adults to run around town. Both Cybertrucks could take turns being plugged into the house.Based on the content of Master Plan 3, there is a good chance that the CT will be the last vehicle purchase for the majority of us here.

Now, the CT has some other uses (off roading for one) that make the robotaxi idea less than ideal but if you were thinking you might be buying other vehicles, don't count your chickens just yet.
Every solution has it's pro-con matrix. I agree that the opening size is really the feature. How the door opens is an implementation detail. And everyone will have their own view of which feature version they like.I think the thing people like isn’t the reversed doors, but the big opening. The kind you only see in creeper vans anymore.
Just replace them all with sliders or gull wings and it’s not a problem.
I think it was solarwizard that made somewhat of the same statement about it being a “not a great idea” afterreading both points, I can totally see why it would be a bad idea. looks cool like you said, but practical for CT? Not even close.Suicide doors LOOK cool but they REALLY suck to get out of if both front and rear passengers are getting out.
