Somehow just noticed these profiles on the doors and wonder what people think they are?
On a rolls Royce they release the custom color matching umbrellaā¦.. somehow I donāt think Rolls Royce and cyber truck will have too much in common. Hahaha
Center profile at grill might be an integrated winch, and that profile is where the winch rope/cable and hook pass through. Maybe want to test the winch in the ice and cold.
Assuming that this is a brand new tire, Is it just me or is this tire lacking a lot of tread depth? I run Michelin Defender M/S (which aren't knobby tires) on my truck and it has way more tread depth than what I'm seeing here.
I wonder if there will be variants of the v4 superchargers because last night on Tesla Daily with Rob Mower there was something about the v4 supercharger being installed in (I think) Canada was rated at 350kw max which is not the jump in power I was hoping for, for charging CT. But maybe the...
At least 70 mph, I'm more thinking 77-82mph. Seems to be the flow of traffic in the fast lane for long road trips I do.
I know this has been said by others, so I'm beating a dead horse here. But I'm really hoping they have a secret top range model with over 600mi of range. I'd be happy paying...
It wouldn't ruin the truck for me, but it would bug me. If that was the horn and I couldn't alert someone in an emergency or tell the car in front the lights green put your phone down, that would be an issue.
I'm hoping for physical buttons and horn in center.
If you watched MKBHD and his review of his Model S Plaid and the capacitive touch buttons on the yoke, he says its something he really hates about the car. They are unresponsive and unreliable. Even before seeing his review I already preferred...
I almost lost hope looking at the bumper on all the betas and prototypes..... but I kept thinking what better car company to design their own winch that can vastly out preform current market than a company that literally designs and manufactures high end electric drive trains.
An option for mounting would be great. However Iām really hoping they develop a high voltage one in house. At least we know CT is 48v so at least at a minimum it would have to be a 48v one so 1/4 the current, longer run times without over heating etcā¦
Hey Crissa, curious what youāre seeing. Iām away from anything but my phone atm so maybe thatās why. But Iām not sure what you mean by shims? In terrible cell area so Iām seeing a shiny partial exoskeleton with the rear delta wings leading to the bed looking like something out of the original...
Some might have already seen from greentheonly that Tesla has requested a confidentiality extension on their new radar which appears to be from Israeli tech company ARBE Robotics.
Apparently the request is to keep it confidential until the product is "marketed in mid January", maybe that's why...
Just realized! weāve been focused on the wrong things!
Was just watching a documentary and realized all exoskeletons shed to grow bigger!
Thatās the technology band wagon Elon is talking about. The cybertruck will naturally shed and grow bigger as you drive it further!
- how did we miss that...
Iām thinking the design he likes the most that he canāt talk about is the robo taxi. I bet the robo taxi has the seats facing each other or possible to swivel the front ones around to face the rear. Just a random thought.
I love fast charging, the faster the better but I doubt it charges at peak the entire time. That calculator is just doing simple math. Doesnāt take the charge curve into account. So maybe 2%-50% is 8-10min and then it quickly trails off after that.
that would be a crazy break through if the...
One last thing I wanted to mention that stood out when seeing the prototype in person. Just how truly purely proof of concept it was. As an engineer myself and I know many on here are as well, I quickly took notice of features and fabrication techniques that screamed weāre just trying to make it...
So I also used parts of my hand to measure the width of those sections, (for the record did not touch the bed). Measured those parts of my hand. The outside tailgate sections are closer to 6-1/2ā(165mm) and the smaller sections are closer to 3-1/2ā(89mm). Which if Iām right with my guesstimation...
quick Upload for now, I have many more photos and measurements. I donāt live in LA so want to drive back before traffic..
I wouldnāt put too much faith in those insert widths, Iād say theyāre closer to 4ā. I couldnāt stand right behind it due to quad. So app doesnāt do great at an angle. Also at...
