No, you probably just aren't noticing it.

It's supposed to be subtle.

Most people seem to call the Tesla one a 'UFO sound'.

Yeah I actually love that sound. But that one only plays in reverse right?

Tesla’s DIY manual for Cybertruck includes a sample of the PWS sound:

As indicated above, the PWS sound plays at slow forward speeds. If yours does not, it is defective.

definitely going to listen for it on the truck and on our other teslas this week. news to me!

You are so knowledgeable on several aspects (regulatory, engineering, driving...).

I am a nerd.

And I remember almost everything I read. When I was younger, if you asked me, I could tell you the page and paragraph I had read things.

It was unusually useless at actually participating in society ^-^;

Crissa, you're the walking Wikipedia of our community! Forget Google, we should just be pinging you for random trivia nights. In all seriousness, your knowledge is a goldmine, and we nerds (and non-nerds) truly appreciate you sharing it! Don't worry, someday that ability to recall every detail from a book will come in handy... like winning a pub quiz or impressing someone at a party with your random factoids!

Haha, I canceled Google today. I told them "I don't need Google, Crissa knows everything."

So Google can take a hike - from now on, it's Crissa or bust. Maybe I'll even get her face on a billboard, just to solidify her status as the undisputed queen of knowledge. Silicon Valley better watch out, there's a new AI in town.

Man, I miss when Google was reliable.

My memory will tell me where things are, not necessary what they are. Faces, names, dates... Not things I'm good at remembering.

I can confirm it is present in both forward and reverse.

Today I drove with the windows down since the weather was accommodating. The tires make a nice growling sound when cornering.

But what I didn't hear was the "UFO" sound from the PWS. I could definitely hear it in reverse, but not going forward. Hmmph!
