This one looks interesting. I've never tried an 'umbrella' option. Keeping an eye out for it becoming 'in stock'. https://www.amazon.com/JOYTUTUS-Windshield-Cybertruck-Automotive-Protection/dp/B0D12NKP7Y
I tried something similar in my Model Y. They fell off in a few months from the heat. There are a couple of other options that folks have 3d printed. I messed around today and was able to make something that works 'ok' from stuff in my garage. The panel in the middle is easy to remove so it's...
Well, I'm getting ready to do just that.
I have a set of Michelin Defender LTX Platinum tires that Michelin offered me in exchange for an evaluation and review. I'm still building data regarding range and sound level but both my wife and I feel that they are smoother and quieter. More to come...
I wonder....
What if one opted for the 6 month or 12 month free supercharging and had super convenient access to a supercharger then hooked up a simple generator plug to some loads and run a 220 cord from the truck to the loads and emptied/filled it daily?
Actually, although I got an ok quote...
Thanks for the info.
So with no powerwall and the standard powershare install, if the truck is plugged in, it should take over in around a minute with no other intervention. Is that correct?
I'm wondering if there is a big load at the house (i.e. HVAC, Water Heater, Dryer, Stove running at...
If you follow the links started in the OP, it leads here.

It doesn't appear to be a simple crank down a couple of easy to reach bolts.
I could be wrong but I see 'scrapped' in the headline and 'cancelled' in the first sentence. CTRL-F didn't find the word deprioritized anywhere in the article. Maybe 'reuters tesla model 2 deprioritized' was a bad search but this was the first link returned and none of the returns included the...
I think they add a classy look.
Two questions:
1. Should the be put on top of the all weather mats? I've read that you should never have multiple layers from a safety perspective particularly on the driver's side. (though I admit having done it)
2. I would think that possibly they would...
Repair Completed!
I was able to get the part ordered from our local Tesla approved body shop. Thank you Hendrick Auto! About $600 after taxes, etc.
The part fit in the back of the truck with the Tonneau cover partly open to accommodate the dimensions.
Following the instructions in the Tesla...
I have one on my Android phone and am playing with it and taking some baselines. I plan to record full routes in various conditions before and after. I know that my readings will probably not be exact compared to an expensive meter but I'm more interested in the delta (if any). I am considering...
I don't have the resources to control all variables but plan to repeat a route that includes multiple road types a couple of times before and after ideally on the same day with the understanding that gravitational pull from the sun and moon as well as the weight of electronS in the battery at...
Well... I had a set of the Michelins delivered to me today. Planning to do some testing. Might see if there is a YouTuber who wants to create content. If you know one near Tallahassee, FL, send them my way.
Will either be selling the Goodyears (<2k miles) or the Michelins based on the results...
I could be wrong but I think it is more of a matter of certification and speed of switching rather than wiring that could allow V2G.
I'm not sure how it works, but if one already has a powerwall with it's gateway and certification, wouldn't the Truck be able to flow power to it?
There are also...
Nicely done and congrats for being first to market!
I've been working on a idea using the Matrix Black vinyl I put on my B and C pillars basically trying to make it look like they are extending down. I'm hoping that the obvious material will attract people to keep their fingers in that area. Of...
Perfect use case and you'll likely have commercial insurance on it. I've frequently thought about ways to help justify the expense but pretty much decided just to enjoy the truck.
I'm hoping not that fast. In my early 2018 Model 3 days there were many articles about how Teslas were holding...
Interesting concept. I wonder if insurance companies would consider it a commercial vehicle if used for that. (My insurance guy says 'probably') It would be way easier than getting a wrap and an opportunity to recover some of the time and money we've all shelled out.
I believe they can be. What's the idea?
(BTW, I also found that you can turn them on/off and reset the 12 hour timer within the app and also adjust the brightness of the bed lights by swiping up from the bottom)
I'm 99% ready to order ProtectaClear kit and probably Everbrite as soon as I see a bit more feedback from 'normal' users. I also just ran across this Undrdog Cybertruck Coating but unable to find any independent information and they seem to be a bit misinformed about Cybertruck corrosion.
