After removing the side mirrors on my Cybertruck, I found that using the left, right, and rear multi-camera display feature that's available on the stock Cybertruck problematic for the following reasons: 1) The multi-camera display has to be manually (or verbally) called up on the center...

We're preparing for our annual migration to Arizona for the winter, an 1850 mile trip. There's a lot of camping gear that we take back and forth. Except for bedding and personal things, the cabin is kept free so that we can fully recline the front seats for sleeping. Minimalists will be...

I've been thinking about removing the side mirrors on my Cybertruck ever since I stupidly damaged the driver side mirror and was looking at $500 out of pocket to replace it. I have reasons for doing it other than to avoid that cost though: 1) The Cybertruck looks so much better without mirrors...

We spent five nights camping near Cuyahoga Nat'l Park, Ohio, in our Cybertruck last week, sleeping in the vault. Here are some takeaways: 1) Sleeping in the vault with the tonneau closed will raise the CO2 levels to unhealthy levels. Ventilation is a must to keep CO2 below 1000 ppm and to...

On my off road adventure trips, I generally carry a lot of camping equipment in the vault leaving little if any room in the vault for a spare tire, and the last thing I want is to be stranded miles from civilization with an unpatchable tire. My solution is to install this CybertruckCo roof rack...

I got a call from my Tesla Service Center today informing me that they fixed the vibration problem that occurred at highway speeds since I took delivery of my Cybertruck on Feb 28th. I posted on the problem here. After verifying the existence of the vibration (it was subtle but quite annoying)...

I had a chance to do a real life test of sleeping in the vault this weekend at the Tesla Summer Meetup in Muskegon, MI. The temperatures were not particularly warm Saturday night, so I thought my simple vault vent insert panel would provide sufficient ventilation for a comfortable night's sleep...

I needed a spare tire for when I take my Cybertruck on back country off-road trips. This wheel and tire from @T Sportline fit the bill. It's less expensive than the spare tire that Tesla offers although Tesla includes a tool kit, case, and strap. Both are hard to get. I ordered mine the...

Since taking delivery of my Cybertruck I've felt a slight vibration between 55 and 65 mph. It's subtle, but annoying. I've had my CT in to Tesla twice for the matter. The first time I was told to drive a thousand miles and let them know if it persists. The second time they determined that...

I got a quote from an electrician today to install the PowerShare Gateway and UWC in the amount of $3165. It's a relatively easy whole house backup installation with everything installed on the exterior of the house. I'm debating whether to proceed with the installation or not. There reasons...

I completed a 1900 mile road trip yesterday from Arizona to Illinois in my Cybertruck FS AWD. My overall efficiency came to 432 Wh/mile driving an average of 70 mph between charging stops under mostly good driving conditions. My total Supercharging costs came to $284.01 for 821 kWh...

I can't charge my Cybertruck from the 30A TT-30 outlet on my 120Vac generator (Westinghouse iGen4500DF). I'm able to do so on my Model Y with the same setup. I use a TT-30 to 14-50 adapter with my Tesla Mobile Charger. Everything looks good until it starts pulling amps and quickly stops...

Packing up the Cybertruck for a three day camping and off-road adventure in Arizona's Tonto National Forest. Here’s a complete list of what we are taking on this trip: Traction boards and shovel Bottle jack, lug wrench, tread and sidewall repair kits Air compressor & air down valves and...

I'm going off-roading in the Tonto National Forest next week with three overnight camping stays planned. Since flies and mosquitoes are likely to be a problem with water nearby (Roosevelt and Apache lakes), I needed a way to ventilate the vault when sleeping to keep the CO2 level down. I made...

On my recent off-road trip to the Swansea abandoned mining site, I ran into a group of off-roaders from Phoenix led by Brandon from Arizona Trek Overland (https://www.facebook.com/groups/arizonatrek). Nice group of enthusiasts who were very enthused to learn about Cybertruck.

It's classified "Moderate", but for a newbie off-roader like me it felt worse. The 11.2 mile loop included some steep rocky sections that put me to the test. The recent rains left muddy water filled holes all along the trail. Almost every vehicle on the trail was a UTV (Razors). Needless to...

I have the original Starlink Dishy McFlatface (the round one) that I want to use to connect to the internet in the back country. I have a Starlink Mobile subscription that I will 'Unpause' for 30 days when I go off road. It costs $150/month, but I can pause it when I don't need it. I modified...

:love: For those who haven't seen it. Of course it's more impressive in person.

Last weekend I took my new CT AWD on an off-road trip to the Swansea, AZ mining ghost town 30 miles west of Parker, AZ. The total mileage round trip from Lake Havasu City was 140 miles, 40 miles was rocky dirt roads/trails. I left with a 90% charge and returned home with 34% for a trip average...

Instead removing the rear window of my Cybertruck, and relying on cabin HVAC Camp Mode to heat/cool the vault for sleeping, I designed and built separate means of heating and cooling the vault using a BougeRV 2900 BTU heat pump resting on a Lexan panel inserted in the CT's tonneau cover tracks...
