Seems like you are driving very very slow and on chill mode. I am on chill mode and trying not to drive the car aggressively but have been averaging 380/watts. I am also finding I am losing over 20 miles a day with the car in the driveway with sentry turned off and no cabin overheat on either. Anyone else?
Wow if this is true how would you leave this at an airport for a week?

I've driven in Arizona and the posted speed limit is really just a suggestion....
Ya that’s my state!

The worst is that they’ll pull right up behind you and act surprised you’re there. I’ll be 10 over and it still happens.

Really 60 mph , you really driven 60 mph on a highway ?
how many cars or slower ugly cars passed you ?
And it is very dangerous driving to show the better range on a truck, if you do not drive , the range will be infinite
No, if you don’t drive the range approaches zero while the battery slowly discharges and your kWh/mile goes off the chart.

All good news and if you're wondering where to get the caps and lug nut covers
ProCaps 83MM 3.25 Inch Wheel Center Caps for Chevy Chevrolet GMC Rim Wheel Center Hub Caps, Pack of 4 https://a.co/d/4nmgPGw

20PCS Lug Nut Covers - 4/5'' Wheel Nut Bolt Cover Caps, 21mm Hexagonal Nut Covers with Removal Tool, Wheel Bolt Dust Caps Compatible with Audi, Auto Rims Nut Exterior Protection, Black https://a.co/d/gu2oybB
FYI, don't use the 20 piece lug nut cover link, as you'll be missing 4, need the 24 piece version.

Mine fit tightly. I can’t remember. Are there any tabs or anything on the back that you can bend out?
Not really, the tabs are plastic so if I bend they will break. I think I just need a bigger size.

I cannot believe the 364 miles range as I can only drive 320 miles with X with similar situations.

Your energy usage is lower than many X owners actually.

Thank you Gene for the positive posting. I like the rims better without the aero covers. Enjoy your CT.

not 19, the lug nut size is 21 mm

While CT manual is not up on Tesla's website, this should be a good reference: Everything you need to know about your Tesla Cybertruck Wheels & Tires

Model 3 and Y are the same:
3 Owner's manual wheel and tires
Y Owner's manual wheel and tires
Yeah, you are correct. I was going by @Gene's Amazon links which only showed 17 and 19mm sizes. I ordered 17mm before delivery and when they didn't fit I ordered the 19mm. They showed up today and, sure enough, 19mm is also too small. I did measure the nuts and they look just under 20mm.

I just ordered these 21-23mm caps and will try them tomorrow. Hopefully, they will do the trick.

The center hub caps that @Gene used were delayed so I switched to a slightly larger size and they fit nice and snug.

Thanks @espresso-drumbeat for the correct measurement and the links. I could not find that info when I searched before ordering.

Totally similar experience with 500 miles on the ODO. Averaged 405 wh/mile mixed driving city and highway. I don’t feel compelled to drive this truck fast like I do my M3P. Way more relaxing and commanding on the road. I actually prefer Chill Mode most of the time. This driving also includes some off road time on the beaches of S Texas.

Range is not an issue. Also, the best vehicle I e driven, period. I got back into my M3P after 3 days driving Blade (my CT), and the 3 actually seems archaic!! Steering wheel felt large and cumbersome to turn hand over hand, the ride was super rough, and I couldn’t see in traffic! ??

I think moving from an ICE to a Tesla is a huge step-change up in driving experience; and going from a Tesla sedan or Model X to the CT is about the same level step-up once again!!
Picking mine up in a few hours… so excited to hear testimony like this.
