High only works up to 25mph if in normal mode. If in off-road of course it will support any speed.

So the answers will be Medium, or Low. In my case I use the standard which is Medium.

I think I will use low if the ride is good. But I think every vehicle looks better low :)

Medium, but what's cool is when you set it high, it auto adjusts back to high in places you've used it in High as you drive around..anywhere.

Low. Handles better and the shape of the CT is better suited to a lower ride height IMO.

I drive in Low. Here's Cybertruck in 'Extract' level (17" ground clearance). It's a challenge to get in.

Wow yea that looks like a leap to get in there.
I assume "entry mode" makes it easy to get in, not much higher than a Model Y?

Really? Does it do that based on GPS? So it is recording your location, ride setting, and presumably other things. Is this just at your house or everywhere?

I have an X and the ride height affects the suspension geometry. I have had issues with abnormal and accelerated tire wear several times. I had to pay a speciality shop to align the suspension for the low setting to help with this. I really hope they fixed this issue in the CT. The weight of these vehicles exacerbates the wear problems.

I too am curious about the longevity of CT tires for this reason, and whether ride height exacerbates the issues. However, it will be a while until we know unequivocally whether it has the same issue as MX, and I'm not about to delay delivery for this, it just is what it is... and I like to get new tires every year anyways, makes up for the oil changes I didn't have to buy ;)

One of the great benefits of not being the trail blazer. I hate waiting
, but I am hoping that the improvements will make it all worth it.

everywhere it will do this. It records when you set it in high. You can delete these locations. So let's say when you are off road and you want to make sure your truck goes into high mode to clear something it will do it automatically. Funny thing though as Im messing around with it waiting at a light or driving around the city i put it in high mode and it recorded the spots and the truck went up and down three times in 2 miles. LOL

That is cool, and creepy at the same time. Wonder if that data is stored locally in the truck or sent to Tesla servers?
