It's the same height as Ford Chevy GMC Dodge and Toyota and they fit fine.

It's just under 1/8 inch thick.

I get what you're saying. You're aware that this is already a problem that we all have to deal with currently but you're saying that Tesla has the opportunity to change that. I think the ideal scenario would be an external fingerprint sensor with a PIN pad. There are times where I go out to...

This, and even just rodent access to the interior in general. I've seen a lot of cars get trashed by mice. Not so much with trucks for whatever reason though.

I don't disagree that I was being a smart ass. But I've seen a handful of people here say they have first hand experience struggling to get in their vehicles due to ice and then people who haven't experienced it say it must not be true. That's like telling someone it's not possible for them to...

Me: I prefer door handles so I can get into my vehicle when it's frozen shut, but I also welcome the change to no door handles Canadians: Don't ya know anything?! My doors don't freeze shut so If it never happened to me then it could never happen to you! Eh!

You must be from the part of the country where frosty windows means they shut down the city? There is a system on all cars, called the windshield defroster. It blows hot air directly at your windshield. That's the big piece of glass in front of your face that you look through. Now, this may...

... I'll... turn on the... defrost? And use my ice scraper, like I already do 7 days a week.

If it's 30° F outsides then yes, it won't take long to heat the sheet metal by 2°. But the problem with this is the fact that it's common that a lot of cars and trucks can't melt ice on the exterior when they can't output enough heat overcome -30° temperatures.

Haha yes, door handles are just my preference for the cold climate that I am in. I've spent many hours of my life chipping away at my trucks with screwdrivers and claw hammers to get inside. But I do welcome the no handles as well, it sounds pretty awesome. As far as the tailgate goes, I'm...

Big stainless door handles Quick removable tailgate Independent suspension control to change a tire without a jack Power rear window Front and rear tow hooks Power port for a winch RWD mode for Dual and Tri motor Under-seat storage large enough for rifles and shotguns

It's funny to read through the comments about freezing temperatures and be able to pick out the people who think they know what cold is vs. the people who actually know what cold is. The ice that people from cold climates are talking about is the ice that forms when you have snow melt from a...

Cd is independent from frontal area, or cross sectional area as a more appropriate term. When calculating total drag, cross sectional area is determined by size while the coefficient of drag is determined by shape. Image if you had two semi trucks of the same design, but truck "A" is larger...

Ok, so that's slightly smaller than a 31" tire on there.

How do you envision the final design "removing" space? The driver of the vehicle is placed where there is the most head room. The steering wheel is then placed forward of that where it works best for ergonomics. How much space is between the steering wheel and the front of the vehicle is...

Looks like the rule applies to gross weight, not actual weight. So almost every truck on the market today would qualify, even something as small as the current Ford Ranger.

Not me, I don't care if your wife approves of my truck.

Yes, I would not recommend doing this in a mud pit.

Assuming the user had independent control of the adaptive suspension, it's theoretically possible to remove a wheel and tire from the Cybertruck without the use of a jack or lift. The stressed skin creates a much larger net section (inertia) than what is possible with a typical truck frame...

How accurate is the Tesla trade-in value system? Will they adjust their estimate based on condition and rust? I just submitted the VIN for my rusty old 2005 Silverado and their trade-in value is about 3.5x higher than I paid for the truck 4 years ago.
