Just ordered a 2026 Cyberbeast, what am I in for?

[Outdoors]

The one I just ordered now for $15k cheaper lol

Yup. Pretty expensive luxe packaging if one bought it. Yikes. That's a crap ton of supercharging and service.

There is an option .
Cabin Camera… video good but goes to voice when in drive… need premium connectivity - great quality…

zoom meeting icon is in main apps area list…

can’t share laptop image but for simple chat or attendance in another meeting it works REALLY WELL.

Wish Tesla had Teams and Webex too but I'm guessing they have an exclusive agreement with Zoom. Every company uses something different.

Native apps on the iPhone connected to the Cybertruck work well too but just having native app support would be better.

Save $15,000 with new CB offer, but now NO Luxe Package:

The Package includes Full Self-Driving (Supervised), Free Supercharging, Premium Connectivity, and four (4) years of Recommended Maintenance, Tire Protection Plan, and Windshield Protection Plan. All plans begin on the delivery date. The Recommended Maintenance, Tire Protection Plan and Windshield protection plan end four (4) years after the delivery date.

Keeping what I ordered…

I dont get it... for regular use and keeping the truck for four years... is it better to keep the Luxe package or cancel and reorder without it?

Is the lightbar dead for new Beast orders?

yeah it would have been nice to have luxe tbh but I don’t think I’ll use supercharging enough (it’s worth about $2k per year for me but that’s a lot of trips over to the sc when I already have home charging). And then an extra $15k gets me 15years of fsd if I choose to subscribe. I feel the luxe might lock me into the cb for longer than I want it. Eg. if autonomous version cybertruck 2 comes out in 5yr

I think luxe is worth it if you keep it more than 7 years

Is FSD with luxe package transferable to a new owner? at least then it might help resale value...

If purchased luxe before 2/14/26 the fsd will transfer but fusc wont. But if purchased luxe after 2/14, nothing will transfer.

Looked at $59K CT and it’s an excellent deal! However, the CB we ordered with Luxe Package works better for us due to included SC. FSD and other goodies will be gravy!

Over the past year, we drove our 2025 Model 3 over 16,000 mostly local miles. Charging was split between (free) casinos and home solar panels. Over the next four years that “local“ driving will decrease because we plan multiple trips across the US including Alaska, pulling a RV travel trailer. With almost $7K savings per year, the free SC alone makes a Beast with Luxe Package our best choice. Break even with just that SC factored in, should be 2-3 years. That’s not including FSD (cannot be used while towing), plus all the other Luxe goodies. The enhanced 4 year warranty could be priceless. BTW our order was placed 1/31/26, so yes FSD will pass to the next buyer eventually. A value increase for that could possibly offset some of the miles we will put on the Beast. SC does not pass to the next owner. Here are the SC details:

SC Savings per Year ‎ =  $6,510
How figured:
10,000 mi solo @ 550 watts/mi plus…
10,000 mi tow @ 1000 watts/mi)
With Supercharging Average Cost .42 per Kw
 No Trailer Travel: 10000 x 550 / 1000 x .42 = $ 2,310
Travel Pulling a Trailer: 10000 x 1000 / 1000 x .42 = $4200

Huge Congrats!!
I cannot state more emphatically that as a man who absolutely loves “cars”… THIS IS PERSONALLY THE BEST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED. Comfort, Space, the Normal power outlets when I want to “work from car”!. FSD (get it - it’s awesome) and worry free “bullet proof” for Shopping Cart incursions…

My first CT was May 10 2024 (foundation) and what a thrilling day for me and my family. This was before the “drama” of politics, which I feel has generally died down. I still don’t take it into NYC because of the crazies

In terms of repair you won’t have these issues:
-Accelerator pedal recall
-External panels recall
-Some had panel gap concerns
-Some earlier (not me) weird “blackout” issue close to delivery
-seriously ZERO issues with the truck hardware other wise for me

not sure how others feel about sentry mode phantom drain on batteries.

The things you MIGHT deal with even today may be:
-Garage space
-Wrap decisions
-Tonneau misalignment
-Cleaning (if you wrap)
-I suggest you opt for the FSD
-PowerShare setup
-Reaching things in the far end of the bed lol
-Charging in your garage (your old wall charger cable may not be long enough)
-*The love and hate from others (thumbs up and admirers - I STILL catch people taking pictures of my truck) and (bird flippers and 50’s women parking lot mumblers as they walk by with their evil eye)
Range may be a little less but man, enjoy the trunk space and please take it places your S never went..

Some other things I LOVE
-Height adjustment
-in vehicle GROK
-Ride
-Ride in heavy rain
- STEERING OH THE STEERING
- Frunk is a nice bench
- The sound system

TRULY best of luck sir

is this your first Pick Up truck?

Love your enthusiasm!

Going to get you riled up; AWD actually better than Beast in most regards.

AWD is better:
1. Lighter.
2. Better off-road (2 locking diffs and lighter).
3. Better range.
4. Less tire wear.
5. Cheaper to purchase.
6. Cheaper to insure.
7. Likely more reliable.
8. RWD permanent magnet motor use for 99% of driving.
9. Quieter.

Beast is better:
1. 1.4 second quarter mile faster than AWD according to Motor trend.

2. Torque vectoring

I own Ferrari sports cars, porsche vehicles, corvettes, Mercedes Benz and on and on- and honestly my cyberbeast is the best all around vehicle I have ever owned, I will drive this vehicle until I or it stops running. And for you jealous guys that don’t own a cyberbeast / keep telling yourself your slower and more boring cybertruck is “better”. You also prefer to sit in the back row to save money at a concert/ same concert if you sit in the first rows - but better in the first row as is sitting in first class on a plane rather then main cabin and a prime steak is better than a choice steak- both beef -

Nothing wrong with the AWD cybertruck but the cyberbeast is the top of the line, the prime edition, front row and sitting in first class -

A porsche Turbo S is an upgrade from a Porsche Carrera - as is the cyberbeast an upgrade to the AwD Cybertruck. We can read between the lines- you’re jealous and a bit annoyed that there is a premium cybertruck and you don’t own one!
