I can not tell if suspension is on low or normal when hitting the speed bump. If it is soft or stiff. I want to see the same speed pump at maximum travel and softest setting. Break lights look interesting.

These wheels look shinier than I thought at night:

I imagine that once the Cybertruck enters production and these start trickling out on the streets, the uploaded videos from onlookers will break the internet.

The tailgate alignment being off a little that some naysayers were salivating over with earlier sightings, is totally more precise and optimal with the Cybertruck in the fourth video.

Some of us knew it was a minor adjustment anyway. But it's nice to see they are likely paying more attention to the fit and finish, with more Cybertrucks being seen in public for the first time.

Now, if they'll just work on the gaps between the frunk lid and fenders, that would be great.

Strange; This light seem to have 360 degree viewing

Absolutely Not.

There are gaps in the crease between the windows, and in the front surfaces adjoining the sides with crude rivets showing. The side window is not even mounted flush sticking out at the bottom, with a shadow under it's crude trim making the flawed workmanship more obvious, and there are ripples all through the sides behind the window.

Looks like the trailer was built in a place where a safe haven is often needed from zombies leaving filth on the sidewalks, i.e. probably was a left over prop from Mad Max.

I'll be satisfied when the workmanship of the Cybertruck rivals Audi and BMW bodies just as the Model ≡ and Model Y are doing now. Refinement takes time, but I'm confident Tesla will do it.

I am starting to accept that 'Let-it-Go precision' sounds better than 'within spec'.

Just bought Model 3 for our daughter. It was perfect with one exception. The Frunk lid was slightly misaligned, The Service Center where we picked it up was so busy delivering vehicles they literally had no parking spaces. We will schedule the Frunk hood adjustment and it's really no big deal. Just shows that in the Fremont Tesla Factory there isn't 100% QA on the built cars.

I expect the CyberTrucks will have panel gap issues for a while but I'm not concerned as long as it floats. :)

Current Model ≡/Y frunk lids can at times be easy with back hinges allowing for most of the adjustment if only minor changes are needed. In some cases the latch catch will need to be adjusted slightly also depending on a few other things, because it ultimately controls where the front of the frunk lid comes to rest. It's also sometimes tricky too because moving the frunk lid forward inherently tightens the side gaps due to the fenders tapering in toward the front. But to close an excessively wide gap where the Frunk Lid meets the bumper fascia, one is going to have to adjust the frunk lid toward the front so it must be done carefully.

Also, adjusting the hinges equally is necessary to keep the frunk lid front centered between each side, unless it wasn't centered in the first place and that's part of the actual adjustment needed. But these adjustments must be done carefully too because if a slight maladjustment is done and the frunk lid is closed, the paint could be damaged on either side or both sides of the frunk lid and or fenders. So it can be quite tedious for the uninitiated. Masking or colored plastic tape is very helpful to mark reference bounds before any hinges or adjustment mounts are loosened, so that one can easily go back to where they started if unexpected results happen.

While I'm still not certain of my feelings about the fog lights being part of a combined headlamp assembly in the newer Model ≡ Refresh cars, I did notice that their fascia, frunk lid, and fenders fit a lot better on the ones we've seen so far, compared to the Model ≡'s when they first came out. So I think they did a good job on redesigning the fascia top and likely this will be a welcome improvement on the Model Y refreshed cars also, if expectations are accurate.

I'm sure the info is out there already, but I have not seen a clear picture of the tail lights. I spotted the CT yesterday and accidently caught the taillights illuminated during the day.
