    saltwater spray on SS body

    Often this time of year there is enough wind and waves that come over the bow of the ferry and people's vehicles get drenched with saltwater. How will this affect the stainless steel body. For this reason, and the seagull poop, I'm considering a wrap when I finally get a CT. BTW, did you...

    Cybertruck, its not what you see, it's what you get that you don't see

    Amongst my friends what I get is "that weird looking thing and that thing is ugly. They and the rest of the world around me have no clue of what you get with a Cybertruck. Recently the breakfast discussion centered around traffic accidents and accidents avoided by Tesla's eight cameras all...

    Will Cybertruck production rates be affected by Cybercab Robotaxi production?

    some channels are saying that model Y production will be slowed due to starting up the robotaxis. I would think CTs will not be affected.

    Unsupervised FSD for Cybertucks likely?

    what is the likelihood that when Unsupervised FSD comes out that cybertruck gets it then too? or at least shortly there after. Since unsupervised FSD will not be available in my HW3 version of model Y, In my mind it helps justify the cybertruck. shortly is up to 6 months.

    Ceramic coating vs a wrap and sea gull poop

    Does ceramic coating work? when I get a CT, the smart truck, Id like to keep the stainless look instead of spending another $6000 or so for a wrap.. I also understand that there are better ceramic coatings than others. However, It may be necessary to get a Paint protection film or vinyl to...

    Is it true that cybertruck does not have stand alone autopilot ?

    I had heard a while back you dont get auto pilot if you dont get FSD. Just wanted to verify it.

    how much side force can CT exert to resist a vehicle shoving you out of your lane?

    This question comes to mind after the car on my right tried to enter my lane while I was on FSD in my Y. I retrieved the footage and viewed it on the computer's big screen. I could definitely see that he came out of his lane at least 2 feet maybe 3. I looked at a different camera angle and...

    Cybertruck vs. the airline lines, parking, shuttles, and TSA?

    In a hypothetical scenario for example you were going from Houston to Denver and were not in a hurry, maybe you are retired, would you take the cybertruck instead of the airlines. I had asked this question 3 years ago on a Tesla forum when FSD was not really a thing. I got mostly yes...

    Charging stations in less travelled corridors / NEVI

    It's all well and good that Tesla has installed fast charging in large cities and the interstate hi ways that connect them. But charging is really needed elsewhere. We've all probably heard that the government funded $5 billion for building charging infrastructure across the country and only...

    Visibility when launching a jet ski?

    What is it like to launch a jet ski? I perceive that visibility is a problem when backing down the ramp. I can tell you my experience in the "ICE truck" is that the rear camera does not show how you are lined up with the ramp. it is necessary to look out the rear window, not the camera and...

    more reasons to get the cybertruck, especially on the coast where hurricanes happen

    If evacuating from a hurricane the CT is an asset not a liability: gas stations run out of gasoline as people prepare. If the power goes out and electricity is lost gas stations aren’t available either Being stuck in evacuation traffic idling at a standstill does not use up gasoline and...

    Battery Pack Sealing to Prevent Water Penetration

    There are wire cables that enter the battery pack Anyone have knowledge of how the battery pack is sealed? What sealants are used, is it military grade Amphenol and Cannon connectors? Is there a pressure test made on the pack? This would be something like pressurize the pack up to some value...

    I was bummed out to see a sea of cybertrucks in the Tesla lot south of Houston

    As I drove past the Tesla show room on I-45 south of Houston I saw a whole of, really a lot of CTs on the lot (50-75). This is pick-up country down here yet I dont see any CTs in the wild. Should I be worried that they are not catching on here and else where.

    Is it safe to drive your cybertruck on the beach?

    I'd always planned on being able to drive down the beach (wife likes the beach) when I get the CT . After seeing Ben Sullin's video about submerged Teslas in saltwater and days later catching fire now I'm not sure. My thinking was to put it in wade mode, and well after all, I'm not submerging...

    Does ceramic coating work on CT's stainless steel?

    Our model Y has had a ceramic coating since day one. That one coating has held up wonderfully for three years and still beads water. wouldn't that work on the CT? I think I can live with finger prints around the door. I like the stainless look. More generally, Now that a year has passed...

    Anyone launched a jet ski with their cybertruck?

    They say short trailers are difficult to keep straight while backing up. This, is in conjunction with not being able to see the trailer on a sloping boat ramp makes it even more difficult. Rear cameras dont help because they don't show the angle of the trailer with respect to the bumper until...

    My only 2 cars are EVs. is that OK?

    I've heard a statement that I dont want my only two cars to be EVs. while generally it is smart for safety and reliability to have diversity (not political). For example an airplane can measure altitude by both air pressure and radar to the ground. My opinion is that if the grid goes down...

    Cybertruck Ride Comfort on road trips (vs Model X / Y with air suspension)?

    How does the CT ride comfort compare to the model X and Y that has air suspension? or any other expensive luxury cars or trucks? I hear that it is. Looking into the future, when FSD is approved or even just the next level of autonomy I can picture that road trip travel will change. Here is...

    plug cybertruck 240 Volt AC into my safety interlocked breaker panel?

    During power outages I plug my portable generator into my breaker box where I have a mechanical interlock to prevent back feeding into the utility grid. Could I just substitute the 240 outlet on the cybertruck instead of the generator? The interlocked breaker in the breaker box that the...
