    Wiper selection feature I just figured out

    There's been a few times I've used the the voice command "turn the wipers off" to avoid getting another dry wipe by clicking and scrolling to get to 'off'. I keep meaning to go over the voice commands to see what else I could use. I like the simplicity of the button/scroll feature. It feels...

    Did Tesla give me a previously vandalized Cybertruck?

    Baptism by fire. It's seen some shit, but it's fine. I wonder if the event was recorded by sentry and it's still on the memory stick? Service should buff those scratches out and clean it up for you.

    Should I get a cybertruck?

    Personally, I don't like having a ball hanging from the ceiling of my garage. I just aim for the black tape on the camera and get it to the bottom center of the screen. Helps with centering. Thank goodness for the front camera!

    Should I get a cybertruck?

    I measured my garage, moved some stuff around, and I can park in it and still open my frunk and tailgate. Helped to also put tape where my front camera could see it to help me park perfectly. I do watch my side mirrors when backing out though. Minor issues with mine in my first year, all fixed...

    Underrated CyberTruck feature -> bug free windshield

    Let's call it "bug resistant" not "bug free". We can't go claiming that Cybertruck windshields are bug-proof or WhistlinDiesel and JerryRig will drive through swamps during mosquito spawning season and shoot giant potato-sized bugs at it to show how dangerously not bug-proof it is.

    Are You a Cat Person or a Dog Person?

    I drive a matte black Cybertruck, so it looks like I'm a bat man.

    CYBERTRUCK hate by state [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    I'm in washington and some jerkface just dumped a full 16 ounce caramel latte with oat milk on my truck as I drove away. Worst hate I've gotten in a year of ownership, and that jerkface was me. 😩:coffee: This is the first time I've driven away with something on top of my car. 😄

    Second time not a charm….

    Service was able to fix my dash rattle, there's another thread about it. For me, it was hard to ignore and lovely to have it finally fixed.

    CT vs Parking in 19 ft garage with door struts

    I just removed mine from quick access because I feared accidentally dropping it on someone else's car in a parking lot.

    Frunk not opening completely.

    1. At one point, the ribbed cable and clamp on the left arm was rubbing against the center plastic piece after I got it back from service. It didn't keep mine from opening, but I wonder if you were to try to peek inside when this problem occurs, is this part getting caught? 2. Rubber seal is...

    Public REACTIONS to Your Cybertruck (and Your Reaction)? [Admin Warning: NO POLITICS]

    I hear ya, it's not science, I'm just saying what I'm seeing :geek: I'll let you know if the pattern that I've been seeing for a year changes at all.

    Public REACTIONS to Your Cybertruck (and Your Reaction)? [Admin Warning: NO POLITICS]

    Love the meme. Accurate. It's not worth the energy to engage with people who get upset at the site of a vehicle... Maybe they think Elon IS the truck, maybe nautical protractors haunt their dreams and so they just hate triangles, who knows what their stupid beef is. I feel like it was worst in...

    General questions for you owners

    I have the 2-motor version, and it's plenty powerful in "Standard" mode. You can also switch the vehicle into "Chill" mode and it relaxes the performance a bit while still being responsive and fun to drive. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts from a test drive!

    Yeah I have had "exclude home" on for several months. This also persisted after a full reset of my phone.

    Tesla App phone battery drain??

    The last few days, my battery has been tanking a lot faster than normal. I looked at what apps are causing it and since the 28th, Tesla app has been going crazy. Anyone else? Last 4 days, it has accounted for most of the daily battery usage percentage by far. 25th, 26th, 27th - 2, 4, 1% 28th...
