So there’s a few. If you want a Raptor or TRX armored I’d bet you’d find yourself at a shop somewhere.
But you don’t. You want an armored cybertruck and all you have to do is check a box or bring it to your local service center.
Forget the ICE noise

A knight needs its armor If you want to get me the Terrestrial Armor Package, you can now do so when placing your order.

Just had the UP front+rear bumpers with rock sliders installed this weekend. Was looking at the Tesla under armor and it's so bad ass. But then I saw that UP makes it too.

I think I have to go with UP for a full integration.

It would make sense if you live close to them and can have it installed by them. But Tesla’s is $1,000 less and can be installed all over the country. I totally get wanting to use the same company for the same project. I have OCD about that stuff, but that’s still a hard sell.

Agree. Tesla will also not bitch if a part they installed has to be removed for any service reason down the road and also won’t make you wait until midway though the rapture after you purchase it to ship.
However, he already has the side steps so I think that’s his only option. Don’t think the UP running boards work with the terrestrial armor package.

Another point for Tesla, their $1,000 cheaper package includes running boards. UP’s may very well be more robust and durable, but Tesla’s quality and price is an absolute steal for anyone other than those that bottom out their trucks on pyramid shaped rocks on a daily basis.

Grok, show him what I mean

Ehhh.sort of. They are not really running boards. They are quite narrow. Barely useful as a step even for 5 and 7 year old feet.

The after action report/recon actually shows how whack this paving job is. I'll upload the video eventually, but pics are easy enough to post from the crapper (the only time a man is truly free):
