It would be nice if we got a second charging port on the passenger front wheel fender. It would be easy to hide until the delivery event with a different fender.

Looks like the air shocks are definitely there, but this video does nothing to solve the mystery of the driver getting out! Still hopeful for a mid-gate!
Wouldn’t they use summon feature? Otherwise, just climb out the window and walk along the trailer’s fender wells. You can also winch it in. Most people with transport trailers throw in a floor mounted winch up front.

Thay steering knuckle bolt looks close to the top of the wheel. If it's like the MY this will limit increasing the wheel diameter you can put on there. You could maybe squeeze on a 37"?

Also I think that is 3mm SS for the rear fenders. If the fender doesn't open for sail storage then you might as well make it structural. Plus it needs to be fairly tough seeing it completely exposed to knocking stuff against it when the tailgate is open.

True but WAY more than my X's (265/45 R20).

The hood, door, and rear fender/sails all seem to be the same thickness (~3mm). Tesla has not indicated that they have moved away from 3mm stainless. I don’t think we should assume anything other than the most likely case is that all panels will be the same.

I also agree, best fitment on the rear light bar to date!

except recently disoriented to learn that the entire 3mm mythology stems from a single 2019/20 tweet by Musk, which itself wasn’t unambiguous about whether he was talking about the whole car.

(I wonder if that 3mm mythology was also solidified by the notion of the [BLEEP BLEEP], as people tended to assume 3mm made sense if the panels were all alone in forming the frame. And now that we’ve see the body in black…)

I really have no clue either way if it’s all 3mm, I’m just no longer moored to the idea that Tesla/Musk ever said the whole truck would be 3mm

Almost a truism for many aspects of CT lore by this point.

People went absolutely nuts over "cold rolled", too. Apparently it rhymed with SUPERUNOBTAINIUMCOLDPRESSEDLATINUM or something.

Just eyeballing, seems ~3mm SS is not just the doors.

'EXOSKELETON' is and always was___they'll be talking 'bout it for years.
Can't wait to get the CYBERTRUCK dirty(!)
Should be perfect for the Drive-in on Saturday nights. Bean bag anyone (?)
