    Raptor 700R loaded in Cybertruck - looking for thoughts if you have done this before....

    I was wondering if short ramps for the front tires would lift it enough the bumper would clear the front of the bed. Use blocks to keep the fronts from going to far forward to keep the bumper from touching the glass. Then air down the rear tires to allow the tailgate to close.

    Garage experience?

    19 feet means I'll have a couple feet in front and behind. My garage is from when cars were looooong. I used to have a 91' deep garage. It was mainly for working on farm equipment. I used to pull in and park diagonally in it on both sides.

    Rolling Coal - VW puffer

    I'm pretty sure complaints of coal rolling lead to inspections that found the mods. Impounding would be for ensuring the mods get removed and fines paid. We don't have to get yearly smog checks, but one is still required to keep the emissions system functional. Looks like defeat devices are a...

    Rolling Coal - VW puffer

    We get too many yahoos every new semester who think coal rolling is OK. I wonder how many of them know over 30% of the professors have EVs? I often see trucks I know did coal rolling in the city impound lot.

    Has anyone RECEIVED a 2026 Cybertruck?

    Finally got my PAWD VIN# 96xxx yesterday. Only ordered it back on 2/12.

    Hansshow (Tesstudio Branded) Power Running Boards Help for 2025 Cybertruck AWD

    This is consistent with an overloaded power supply tripping out and cutting power from being overload, then cycling back on to try again is a repeated loop.

    Random emergency braking

    Interesting: Out of Spec had a pullover incident due to camera frame rate vs headlight frequency issues.

    CT at 14000 feet

    Depends of the state of your cardiovascular system. Pre covid I know I could. As a teen I summited Mount Kilimanjaro without supplemental O2. That's only a shade under 19400 feet. In my late 40s I drove US Route 550 from end to end, exploring old roads to and mines, and getting out and hiking...

    Hitch mounted shade umbrella

    Yep. Maybe more complex. I've thought the ability to also attach a table to it would be good for cooking. I've been thinking of many possibilities. If the hinged bar was as long as the bumper is wide, it would provide more possibilities. It's also possible to put a hinge into the middle of one...

    Hitch mounted shade umbrella

    I've been looking at the offset ones to get the shade area further aft, and also not shading solar panels. The other offset method I've been thinking of is to use a hinged hitch attachment system of some sort. Take a hinged rack of some sort and add one or more vertical pipes for holding...

    Falling Asleep with FSD

    Depends on the glasses. I have a super strong astigmatism in both eyes so I think my plain glasses cause it some issues with seeing where I'm looking, but still don't prevent it from seeing me close my eyes. My dark UV and IR blocking sunglasses blind it. It can still see dad's eyes through his...

    Hitch mounted shade umbrella

    Mine takes at most 5 minutes to setup, and all parts of it fits into a 3" x 3' bundle plus the two suction cups. I first ran into some of them on a recently redone pool side patio. Note, this is a private single residence pool side patio in Monaco. I like it's looks and this enginerd thinks it...
