In just over 24 hours your simple question, why not Rivian, has generated 8 pages. I think you might be onto something. Iām asking myself the same question, over and over questioning this 4 year allegiance to our cult leader.
Something that causes me to pause is reading on the internet it seems...
When people ask what you drive, how many of us will answer, a Tesla Pickup? I will likely always answer first with, Cybertruck. And when they ask what is that, Iāll describe it with all the features but āpickupā may not ever enter the description.
Look at F150 sales for trim level XL and 8ā bed. Thatās a work truck. Alternatively F250 crew cab 8ā bed. I dont think there is any argument these are work trucks but realize they are significantly different based on the needs of the contractor.
while the CT is neither of the above it is the...
Oh dear - I was thinking of steam like steam engine and couldnāt figure out if that was from the condensate collector of the HVAC system. At one point Mr Musk discussed capturing the condensation, the ultimate Martian rover. Iāll assume this fell to the floor of the drawing room as well as his...
No, I would not give up headroom for range.
I like the idea of adding length for additional range if those two could come together and fit
I am very disappointed at the range for the beast and the $16k we are expected to pay and still not get to 500 mile range. I know statistically the average...
I would be surprised if someone shared this was NOT a professionally produced video where both drivers rehearsed and coordinated the movements across multiple lanes. The camera is mounted, not hand held.
I noticed that also - interesting. In his interview with Leno, Lars, talked about the engineering of the BAW and all the considerations that went into the design. I dont recall it parking horizontally when in use as one of the characteristics.
He did talk about the aerodynamics of parking it...

Iām wondering about the photos seen of the Cybertruck suspension damage. I dont know what the vehicle was doing when that occurred; abusive driving or routine, and what has been done if anything to prevent it in...
I think there might be some data out of context but the idea of an internal cover up Is certainly suggested. What say ye Tesla owners here, have you been ignored regarding your warranty work or ever told it was your fault due to abuse or misuse which you were not guilty?
I had a Toyota sunroof...
I dont know much about internet business but⦠it seems to me a notification from a company on their server is easier to control than an email on another companies server. If the company makes an offer and chooses to retract it in six hours, it is easier to proffer it on your own website.
When...
Iām a full size truck guy, always have been. The short bed on this truck is a huge compromise for me, one that Iām willing to accept and buy a 12ā trailer to haul the 16ā ladder. I realize this thread is a āwhat ifā rhetorical scenario, but if such a truck were offered, Iād get it.
Nice rendering!
Great news in the Leno video, light bar wires are tucked into every truck so even non beasts will be able to have off road lights.
previously in this thread mattix headlights were mentioned. For those that dont know, they may work like this:
Above a determined speed (maybe50mph) your car...
Iām interested in the light bar for the DAWD version, likely adding Hella or similar so the wiring tips are very valuable. Iāll need to educate myself on polarity and voltage with the 48vdc system but Without a confirm VIN, Iām confident I have time for someone to share that info.
If I were king⦠Tesla needs to pause and get their act together before proceeding. We are all eager to take delivery but some of the things fellow forumārs are finding, learning, sharing; has everyone a bit skeptical. The sequencing of who gets notified, probably makes perfect algorithmic logic...
Ref: Multi use light bar - programmable. Seems very logical and while some customers would find it useful, others would find misuses and abuses for such a feature. Tesla, in my opinion, is simply not interested in customizing the truck for the needs of a small minority. Law enforcement or...
Thank you for that comprehensive report. The light bar is only available on the cyberbeast, reported previously on this forum, so Iām out. However, I might order those cross bars, mount my lights on that, store it in the frunk 99% of the time and clamp it on those nights I find myself in need...
